Volvo C70 Overview

There is only one model of the C70, the coupe and the convertible. It's called simply the C70. The C changes its meaning with the weather. Coupertible? The retractable hardtop is standard, and the only choice. Standard equipment includes the six-speed manual transmission. The five-speed automatic transmission is optional. Standard features include power front seats, leather steering wheel with controls, and a six-disc CD changer with eight speakers and four amplifiers. It uses the same turbocharged five-cylinder engine that's been powering Volvos for some time. It's 2.4 liters with dual overhead cams and variable camshaft timing, tuned to the same 218 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque as the S40. It comes with either a six-speed manual or five-speed automatic transmission.

The Volvo C70 is all new for 2006.
