Volvo C30 2008 Overview

The all-new Volvo C30 is Volvo's new entry-level attempt at capturing younger buyers. This sporting new hatchback has provocative body sculpting, room for four average-sized adults and a range of competitive engines. It looks very original, except for the front-end face, which is lifted directly off its larger siblings and looks dated already. It offers a fair bit of space inside, at least for the front passengers, and features very basic interior styling, save for a few unique touches such as the floating centre console. Available in this region are three engines, the base being a 1.6-litre four-cylinder with a manual gearbox offered only in 2008. The higher ones are both five-cylinder, one being a 2.4-litre and the other a turbocharged 2.5-litre, both with automatic gearboxes and tiptronic functionality. All three versions are front-wheel-drive. Standard features include cloth upholstery, power windows, trip computer and CD audio. Standard safety features typical of Volvo include ABS brakes, front airbags, side-curtain airbags, and a whiplash protection system. Options include alloy rims between 15-inch and 18-inch sizes, three levels of audio equipment, customisable centre console trim, stability control and a blind-spot warning system for inattentive drivers.
