The 2008 Volvo C30 that is available in two models this year: Version 1.0 and Version 2.0. No matter which model the consumer decides upon, they’ll end up with a sporty, sophisticated coupe that begs to be driven. Available in 17 different colors, drivers are sure to find a hue that matches their dream color.
Each car comes with a five-cylinder turbocharged engine that has variable all valve timing and 227 horsepower. Despite being so powerful for such a small car, it complies with even the most stringent emission standards, including California’s ULEV II.
That said, there are some significant differences between the C30 Version 1.0 and the C30 Version 2.0. For example, Version 1.0 comes with a high performance audio system, while Version 2.0 has a standard premium sound audio system, featuring 10 speakers made by Dynaudio (some of the best in its class). Also, Version 2.0 has a Sirius Satellite Radio with a six-month free subscription.
Besides those differences, the C30 Version 1.0 is delivered with a standard chassis, while its counterpart has a dynamic chassis. Both come with Dynamic Stability and Traction Control (DSTC). DSTC makes sure that the tires hang on to the road, even in slippery and otherwise less than perfect driving conditions. Drivers even have the flexibility of setting the system a specific way to make sure there’s plenty of traction in snowy conditions.
For an extra $675, ’08 Volvo C30 purchasers can add on a Climate Package. This package includes heated front seats, a rain sensing windshield and headlight washers. The latter come in handy during snowstorms when snow, slush and salt can build up and decrease the brightness of the headlights. Also, a cabin filter is offered, free of charge, which prevents common allergens like dust and pollen from entering the cabin through the ventilation system.
