The Ford (Powershift) dual clutch transmission was used with the Ford/PSA 1.6 diesel engine designated D2 by Volvo. (From model year 2016 the D2 is the new 2.0 Volvo engine which is mated to the Volvo Geartronic torque converter transmission.) All the other diesel engines (D3 etc) use the Geartronic.
So any used D2 V40 will have the Powershift, the rest of the diesels will have the Geartronic. As to which is preferable, I will leave for others to say.
