HÃ¥kan Abrahamsson, The C30 Project Director says "Even the smallest Volvo should provide the right premium feel, in all respects. This applies not only to the appearance and the impression of quality, but to how it is to drive and use. The Volvo C30 should attract people who love driving."
How?

What's under the hood is important too. Volvo is offering C30 buyers two transverse-mounted five-cylinder engines. The first is a 2.4 litre with 168 horsepower while the T5 model adds a turbocharger, a small boost in displacement and bumps power up to nearly 220. Manual or automatic transmissions are available in each.
All of this choice is important to today's younger buyer, and it doesn't stop with powertrain options. Owners can customize their C30 with various interior elements including a choice between two high-end stereo systems.
Unveiled Thursday in Paris, the C30 will arrive at dealers in February. Pricing details are not yet available.
