Default car id plate?

inside the engine well there is a metal plate on the driver side that states my vehicle is a volvo 854 t-5 --- why?
its got a volvo 850 turbo tag on the back -im confused now-- is it coz its from Canada originally??
does this mean my car has the power of a t-5 turbo or is it the power of an 850 turbo-- they are different--- 220 hp for 850 turbo vs 850 t-5 @240 hp the confusion set in and i become more lost
