Shows strong indication of styling for the new Volvo C30 to be launched in September 2006.
Styling inspired by classic Volvo P1800ES and recent Volvo SCC (Safety Concept Car).
Compact, stylish Volvo to enter new segment to rival Audi A3, BMW 1-Series, Alfa 147.
Two doors, four individual seats, and a glass tailgate.
Shorter, but wider, than a Volvo S40 saloon.
260bhp 2.4-litre, five-cylinder turbo engine with 350Nm of torque and 0-62mph in 6 seconds. Volvo is revealing a sporty two-door concept car at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit on 9 January, which gives a strong indication of the design of an exciting, new smaller Volvo C30 model it will launch at the Paris Motor Show in September.
The C30 Design Concept has a compact, sporty design with two doors, four individual seats and a distinctive glass tailgate. It is capable of 0-62mph in six seconds thanks to a high performance 260bhp, five-cylinder, 2.4-litre engine producing 350Nm of torque for plenty of flexibility from 2,100rpm.

i don't know but i think the rear end is not that bad. in fact i kind of like it. it might take some times for the look to sink in for a lot of people i guess.
