It appears that someone at Volvo Media’s web team made a slight mistake. Someone tipped us off that there was a Volvo C30 shot on the Spanish section of the Volvo PR website. To my surprise, there was a link to a press release about the new C30 Design Concept dated January 4th, and accompanied by a photo. I checked the U.S. site, and sure enough, nothing. Oops..someone is in trouble. So, here is the first real photo of the Volvo C30 Design Concept, that someone stumbled onto by accident.

The C30 Design Concept make its debut at the 2006 North American International Auto Show (Detroit Auto Show) in 2 weeks, followed by a production model debut at the 2006 Paris Motor Show, held in September. The C30 is scheduled to go on sale in the U.S. during the summer of 2007.

Since there was no note of an embargo, we decided to run the photo and press release.

Full press release text after the jump.

Looks like it may be based off the same platform as the mazda 3(I didn't read the rest of the stuff on the link) nice though

looks like there trying to bring back the P1800 styling in the rear... problem is the front isn't even close, and the car is most likely not RWD... so not nearly close enough to p1800 territory
