Volvo C30

C30 turns heat on Golf GTI

Who said being 30-something was boring? This couldn't be further from the truth when it comes to Volvo's new C30 T5 -one of the fastest cars the Swedish firm has ever produced.

09th October 2006

Powered by the same engine as is found in Ford's Focus ST, the T5 develops 220bhp and hits 0-62mph in around six seconds. Priced from £21,495 to £22,995, this performance version of the new hatch is aiming to take on VW's Golf GTI and Audi's A3. The super-Swede doesn't go on sale until January, but Volvo says it's already had more pre-orders than for the highly popular XC90.

Meanwhile, the car maker is also considering bringing an environmentally friendly Flexi-fuel version of the C30 to the UK.
