Hi - I'm a little confused on what engine I have. It's a 2002 S60 AWD. It is a turbo, but why is the vehicle called a 2.5T, when it has a 2.4 liter engine?

Where did you get the "2.5T" designation? Here are the engines:
2002 S60 Engines: L5 2.3L B5234T3 T5; L5 2.4L B5244S; L5 2.4L B5244T3
Also a review written by someone posted on a Website I assume when this AWD model came out in 2002:

PERFORMANCE: The S60 AWD uses the 197-horsepower (at
6000rpm) low-pressure turbo (LPT) version of Volvo's 2.4-liter
inline five-cylinder engine, not the high-pressure turbo of the T5. In
the real world of everyday driving, this is actually an advantage, as
the LPT engine has better low-end and midrange torque and is more
responsive at city and usual highway speeds. Turbo lag is noticeable
only at extremely low speeds, like from a standstill, and use of the
five-speed automatic's ``Geartronic'' manual mode easily
compensates for that. And with 210 lb-ft of torque available from
1800 to 5000 rpm, keeping the engine speed in the heart of the
torque curve is no problem.

I got the 2.5T from the CarFax when I put in the VIN. Here's what is says:

2002 VOLVO S60 2.5T AWD

SEDAN 4 DR 2.4L L5 FI 20V

ALL WHEEL DRIVE

Thanks for those specs too. I see it mentions the Grocery Bag holder; that was a questions I had a few days ago.

 

Well, that proves that the CarFax database is not always 100% accurate.
