While Volvo is best known in the US for wagons and crossovers, it has built sedans for far longer.
The C30 is built on the same platform as the S40 sedan and V50 wagon, and shares their But interior space and practicality are not likely to be the first reasons anyone would consider a Volvo C Looks are. Influenced by the vintage Volvo Safety Concept Car and echoing the PES sports wagon of the early s, the C30 is the best use of current Volvo design language so far. Introduced to the North American market in model year , it gets its first update for with new front and rear styling and revisions to options and option packages.
Need another reason for interest in the C30? Turbo performance, with good fuel economy, especially in highway cruise mode.
The S40 and V50 are offered with a choice of naturally-aspirated 2. The C30 is T5 only, front-wheel drive, with a choice of six-speed manual or five-speed automatic transmissions. Trim levels are regular T5 and R-Design, with a sport-tuned suspension and matching "aero kit" body modifications. I've just spent a week with an R-Design C30, a lovely combination of goodness in chassis, engine, and distinctive style.
Its sleek lines are about more than merely appearance, as its low-drag aerodynamics contribute to exemplary highway mileage, and stability at speed and in gusty winds. Inside, Volvo seats, ergonomics, and safety features are as good as found in any of the company's more expensive offerings.
The R-Design's sport-tuned suspension strikes a good balance between everyday comfort and ultimate handling, and the engine is a fine example of everything that is good about turbocharging done right. I would have preferred the six-speed stick, but given the engine's torque characteristics did someone say "plateau"? The C30's niche -- upscale compact performance hatchback -- is not exactly American Mainstream, but that is part of its appeal.
Exclusivity is not necessarily about absurdly high price -- sometimes it's about being different. The C30 is different, and embodies both rational luxury and emotional appeal.
