Volvo Powertrain, the drivetrain division of the Swedish Volvo group, builds its heavy commercial-vehicle engines at its North American plant in Hagerstown, Maryland. The MP10 is the North American name for the 16-litre inline-six that tops Volvo's heavy-truck engine programme above the smaller D11 and D13 ranges.

The register lists here five versions from MP10-515 M to MP10-605 C with 515 to 605 hp rated output at 1,500 to 1,900 rpm. Mixture formation runs through electronic direct injection with diesel as fuel, certified for model years 2012 and 2013. Maximum torque ranges from 1,909 to 2,096 Nm at 1,200 rpm.
The MP10 drives the heaviest tractor units and long-haul trucks in Volvo's North American programme, where sustained high output over long distances and heavy trailer loads is required; in this top power segment Volvo competes with the flagship engines from Cummins, Detroit Diesel and Paccar.
On a used purchase of this high-output long-haul engine, mileage and the service history of the injection system matter most, along with the condition of the turbocharger and charge-air cooling, the tightness of crankshaft seals and oil pan, and, on high-mileage vehicles, the condition of the clutch and drivetrain; spares and service run through the Volvo Trucks dealer network.
