contents This paper develops novel natural superconvergence and ultraconvergence structures for the bi-$k$-order finite volume element (FVE) method on rectangular meshes. These structures furnish tunable and possibly asymmetric superconvergence and ultraconvergence points. We achieve one-order-higher superconvergence for both derivatives and function values, and two-orders-higher ultraconvergence for derivatives--a phenomenon that standard bi-$k$-order finite elements do not exhibit. Derivative ultraconvergence requires three conditions: a diagonal diffusion tensor, zero convection coefficients, and the FVE scheme satisfying tensorial $k$-$k$-order orthogonality (imposed via dual mesh constraints). This two-dimensional derivative ultraconvergence is not a trivial tensor-product extension of the one-dimensional phenomena; its analysis is also considerably more complex due to directional coupling. Theoretically, we introduce the asymmetric-enabled M-decompositions (AMD-Super and AMD-Ultra) to rigorously prove these phenomena. Numerical experiments confirm the theory.
