2008 Volvo C30
December 5th, 2006
Volvo is breaking into a new vehicle division with its conveniently sized small, sporty C30 hatchback. It follows the design of a concept vehicle by the same name that was shown at the Detroit auto show back in January.
The company hopes to sell 65,000 C30s annually. Although it will be sold in the U.S. as a 2008-or-later model, the primary markets will be Germany, Italy, Spain and the U.K., Volvo said. The car goes on sale in Europe and other foreign markets next summer and officially debuts at the Paris auto show in September.
