The Volvo Scalable Product Architecture (SPA)[4] platform is a global full-size unibody automobile platform developed and manufactured by Volvo Cars.[5] It debuted in 2014 when the second-generation Volvo XC90 was released.[6]

With SPA, Volvo claims it "enables significant improvements when it comes to offering protection in worst-case scenarios and when creating innovative features that support the driver in avoiding accidents."[7] Volvo has invested 90 billion SEK in the platform.

All SPA based cars will be delivered with 4 cylinder engines. The diesel and petrol engines share the same Volvo Engine Architecture, and Volvo can build 530,000 engines per year.[8]
