Volvo C30

STUDY NAMED VOLVO C30

Volvo C30. That is a study introduced at this year’s show in Paris, which has attract mainly young user’s attention. This Volvo shelters sport potential combined with luxurious interior and extravagant and in particular – unusual – design. C30, based on platform of previously introduced concept 3CC, is designed for young generation, which likes to enjoy life in boisterous way and lives hectic city life.

The smallest model in the section Volvo is despite its small proportions (length of 4,25m) spacious enough to carry four adult people. In combination with the most powerful of offered engines with volume of 2.5 liters, support of turbo and 220 hp performance, this car becomes a real unchained element. By Volvo Car Company we are used to high level of passive and active safety.

This case is no exception; the car is equipped with systems as for example Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS), Side Impact Protection System (SIPS) and BLIS (Blind Spot Information System), which assures that in blind spot of your rear mirror doesn’t “stay” any car.

Volvo Company is counting on 65000 pieces a year mostly for European market. In my opinion, this car is going to sell like hot cakes, because it has everything, that a (not just) young user can demand of his car.

PERFECTLY TUNED VOLVO C30

I dare to say, that nobody expected so massive change of this car, that hasn’t been mass-produced yet. Guys from Evolve company, that are engaged purely with tuning of Volvo cars really showed themselves and made one of their best performances.

This project was introduced (together with other two: Sportiv & Burton Snowboards Volvo C30, ipd Volvo C30  to public at this year’s auto show in Paris. Evolve is one of three companies that was chosen to adjust this concept of Swedish car company. This is not everyday opportunity, and people in Evolve realized this very well.

They were also aware of youthful nature of this car, which has in addition unique design and really attractive. Therefore, they wanted preserve this singular style and to provide the car unforgettable striking sporting character at once. Not only in visual, but also in case of performance.

Interier

Exterior changes are at first sight not as strong as one could expect when talking about such a widespread rebuilding. However, they are all the more sophisticated. At the first glance one is attracted by expressive yellow paintwork BASF Glasurit Competition Yellow in combination with silver and black supplements. The next was exchange of the front bumper. It seems more like the bottom part of bumper was cut off and replaced with a new part. In fact, it is custom front Evolve company bumper in F1 style. Still when looking in profile, it is obvious, that new bumper is little longer. It looks very simply, but in fact it is very showy. Moreover, uncovered engine parts are amplify the predacious impression.

We are going to stay a while by the term “in profile”. By one simple reason: take a look at production C30 then look at the Evolve-tuned one. Nothing interesting? The car makes the impression, that it is actually only bodywork, without any wheel arcs and dark coves of chassis. It looks showy like the whole car.

Let’s move more to the rear. In the rear part, quite a few things happened. Firstly, the upper part of back hood was upgraded with fully adjustable roof sporting spoiler, which is used to regulate the airflow over the car.

Also the functional aspect of car was affected, more specifically by moving the fuel filler cap from right part of the car to the back part, on rear bumper. It was not intended just because of appearance, but also due to the extension or more precisely moving the rear fenders outwards by 15 centimeters on each side. Immediately, it changed the overall look of the car. Furthermore, the rear bumper was adjusted to the large diffuser using broader fender. Diffuser has to prevent the air from flowing under the car. You probably noticed, that there are no openings and no fishtails in bumper. That is because Evolve located two pairs of fishtails into the rear fenders nearby the rear headlights. That is to be appreciated.

What else to say. Evolve wanted to create full-value sporting look and preserve original magnificent designer lines at the same time, and we have to say they were successful.
