Volvo C30 Concept

The Volvo C30 Concept is powered by an in-line 2.4-liter, five-cylinder turbocharged engine that makes 260 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 268 lb. ft. of torque between 2,100 and 5,000 rpm. Don’t expect those kinds of numbers in the production model, which should still top out at a respectable 210 or so horsepower. Mated to a six-speed manual transmission, the Volvo C30’s powertrain will supposedly go 0-60 mph in six seconds, driving 19-inch wheels with 13-inch ventilated Brembo disc brakes front and rear, and wearing Pirelli Corsa 225/35-R19 tires. As for possible production models, you can expect to see a toned-down version with a four-cylinder powertrain, and no all-wheel drive, for price considerations.
