The Volvo C30 Concept provides an indication of what the new Volvo C30 will look like at its unveiling in Paris in September 2006.
The Volvo C30 Concept is a sporty two-door, four-seater with a glass tailgate. The sleek, modern look is exhibited in a contrasting combination of two colors; Quite White and Very Bronze. The design clearly reflects several elements from the Volvo Safety Concept Car.
Five-Cylinder Turbo Engine with 260 Horsepower
Measuring 165.4 inches front to rear, the Volvo C30 Concept is no less than 0.9 inch shorter than the Volvo S40, but slightly wider (69.4 inches). Under the bonnet the Volvo C30 Concept has an in-line five-cylinder 2.4-litre turbocharged engine. It gives the driver 260 horsepower at 5,500 revs a minute and maximum torque of 258 lb-ft between 2,100 and 5,000 revs. The car is fitted with a six-speed manual gearbox.
The Volvo C30 Concept accelerates from 0-60 mph in 5.8 seconds and its top speed is electronically limited to 155 mph.
Wheels and Brakes
The 19-inch aluminum wheels have Pirelli Corsa 225/35 R19 tires. There are four-pot brakes from Brembo with aluminum calipers and 330 millimeters ventilated brake discs both front and rear.
“Sporty driving characteristics are a must to attract this customer category. A car that radiates muscular agility has to live up to its appearance once you slip behind the steering wheel,” says Hĺkan Abrahamsson, the C30 Project Director.
ES-Inspired Tailgate
The dynamic front is characterized by the angled headlamps and the low, wide grille. Looking along the side, the well-defined wheel arches and the sloping roofline gives the car a fast silhouette, which is emphasized by the extreme boat shape of the glasshouse. The curvature of the rear shoulders is very pronounced and further enhanced by the horseshoe-shaped tail light pattern and the glass tailgate.
Full Four Seater
The interior reinforces the sporty character of the Volvo C30 Concept. The individual rear seats with generous legroom make the car a full four-seater. The rear seats are slightly centered, which gives the passengers an aura of space along with good visibility to the front.
World Class Audio System
A first-class audio system is an important part of the driving experience. That is why the Volvo C30 Concept has Volvo’s Premium Sound system, with 5x130 W digital ICE Power amplifier from Alpine, Dolby Pro Logic II Surround and 10 loudspeakers from Dynaudio of Denmark.
