Volvo C70 to debut next month
Author: motorTorque Team
Published: 27 October 2005
Straight from its world debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show last month, the all new Volvo C70 will make its UK debut at the forthcoming MPH Show at Birmingham’s NEC and London’s Earls Court on 10-13 and 17-20 November, respectively.
The new C70 is a four-seater coupe and convertible, all in one. The advanced design and precision movement of its unique three-piece retractable hard top has been described as "a piece of theatre", so, appropriately, the Volvo C70 will be one of the hot new cars to star in the 75 minute live show.
The new Volvo C70 has already generated exceptionally high levels of enquiries and orders. It will be launched with powerful 170bhp 2.4-litre and 220bhp T5 five-cylinder petrol engines, and a 180bhp diesel to follow in mid-2006. Prices and specifications are expected to be released by mid-November, with cars arriving in showrooms from February and first customer deliveries in spring 2006.
