Really fun to drive! Although the braking is a little soft, it's not bad. Handles better the faster you go. Really hard to keep under 100 in NM! Excellent power; love the growl of the 5 cylinders. see full Volvo C30 review |

This car has great power - quick off the line and has plenty of extra horses at high speeds. see full Volvo C30 review |

Nice flat torque curve. You can talk HP all day long, but it is torque that gets you moving and keeps you going. Pulls well at low RPMs and holds it until 5000 RPM. Handles the power very very well. see full Volvo C30 review |
