Volvo C30 Price list made an announcement today that will likely please many UK fans of the brand. Specifically, the sports-coupe will start from just £14,995 on the road. The model can be specified with a host of options and accessories, from styling kits and tow bars to portable navigation systems and engine performance upgrades, thanks to the partnership with Polestar.
Feature The C30 is now offered with a choice of petrol and diesel engines ranging from the 2.0 petrol to the T5 (230PS) and D2 (115PS) to the D4 (177PS). The C30 also comes with varying levels of specification from the ES to the SE Lux, including the sports derived R-Design trim and Congestion Charge beating DRIVe fuel economy range producing just 99g/km of CO2.
All models count climate control with pollen filters, electric windows and a CD/radio as standard. Our SE Sport test car – the third of four trim levels – also featured cruise control, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, 18-inch alloys and a bodykit as standard. Sadly no models in the range have a spare wheel, relying on tyre foam and a compressor to get the driver home.
Although the biggest design change occurs at the front, rear also sports the same line in the new and detailed. Contours are wavier and more dynamic than ever before. Black plastic panels have been replaced with the body color lower down, at the same or contrasting colors, in order to establish a closer visual contact between the car and the road surface.
