Vehicle Highlights
The 2010 Volvo C30 no longer requires customers to purchase a "Custom Build Program" in order to equip this premium compact car with popular optional features. This 2-door hatchback is this Swedish automaker's smallest car, and it shares elements of its basic design with the company's S40 sedan and V50 wagon. C30 is 8.5 inches shorter and about 300 lb lighter than the S40. The 2010 C30 reprises T5 and T5 R-Design trim levels. Both use a turbocharged 227-hp 2.5-liter 5-cylinder engine and a 6-speed manual transmission or optional 5-speed automatic. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, front side airbags, and curtain side airbags. All C30s have four bucket-style seats. The T5 R-Design has a sport suspension and 18-inch wheels. Options include power front seats, keyless access and engine start, bi-xenon headlights, blind-spot alert, a navigation system, and leather upholstery.
