W is for Winter. It starts in second gear so you can start more easily with poor traction.

Like sports and economy? At least the Volvos with five speeds never had those as far as I know. They adapt to your driving style instead.

The Sport and Economy buttons along with the Winter button are only on '98 models (in the US market). '99+ models got just the Winter button due to a new adaptive transmission control.
4 speed autos '99 and newer have just the W button, and all 5 speeds have it.
