For 2008, the new Volvo C70 convertible
comes with a more powerful engine, a power
top, a heated glass rear window, and a
larger grille as standard. The Volvo C70
family is represented for 2008 by the
convertible alone. The two available trim
levels sport a turbo inline 5-cyl engine.
The more economical of the two, the C70 2.4,
has a 2.4 liter with 197 hp. A 2.3-liter
engine with 242 hp enlivens the pricier C70
2.3. You'll only be able to get a 5-speed
automatic transmission with the The 2.4.
You
get your choice of automatic or a 5-speed
manual with the 2.3. Traction control, antilock
4-wheel disc brakes, front side airbags,
leather upholstery, and heated front seats
all come standard on both.

Technological
innovations were sought after to bring more benefits
to more people. Furniture makers developed laminated
woods and new ways to work with them. Swedish silversmiths
embraced stainless steel as a way to bring finely crafted
and pleasing eating utensils to everyone. Transportation
is a universal need. And in the Scandinavian tradition,
Volvo seeks to fulfill that need with innovative vehicles
that bring quality, functionality and beauty to the
largest number of people possible. These are all eveident
in the Volvo S40, Volvo
C70, Volvo XC90 and
the Volvo V70 models -
all of which are covered here in AllAutoReviews.com!
