2011 Volvo C70 Overviews

Volvo C70
2011 Volvo C70 ,18-inch wheels and rear park assist are optional.Options include keyless drive, an integrated compass in the rearview mirror, heated front seats and light oak inlays for the interior.

In addition to the required dual front airbags, side-impact and side curtain airbags are standard. Volvo says the curtains are designed to stay deployed in the event of a rollover. Traction control and an electronic stability system are standard.

The 2011 Volvo C70 receives refreshed exterior styling as well as a new instrument panel and upgraded interior materials. Today, it's the rare luxury convertible that doesn't have a retractable hardtop, and this feature is even available on some affordable convertibles. Volvo's drop top is considerably cheaper than the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G37 hardtop convertibles, and the similarly priced Lexus IS 250 C is relatively short on power and interior style.
It comes with 18-inch alloy wheels, a power-retractable hardtop, front and rear foglights and heated outside mirrors. Standard interior features include leather upholstery, eight-way power front seats (with driver memory), automatic dual-zone climate control, full power accessories, cruise control, Bluetooth and an eight-speaker CD/MP3 audio system with auxiliary audio/USB jacks and satellite and HD radio.

The front-wheel-drive 2011 Volvo C70 is powered by a turbocharged 2.5-liter inline five-cylinder engine rated at 227 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque.
The C70's front seats are superbly supportive, and a button on each backrest slides the seats forward for rear-seat access.

As a four-seat convertible with a standard folding hard top, the 2011 Volvo C70 (Base MSRP: $39,950) is a reasonably priced and versatile alternative to other luxury convertibles. Front passengers are treated to seats that reviewers praise for their comfort and support. ConsumerGuide.com editors find that the Volvo C70 convertible "rides firmly but is comfortable." Standard safety equipment includes stability control, front airbags, front-seat side airbags, side curtain airbags, pop-up rollbars, front headrests that reduce whiplash and antilock brakes with brake force distribution technology. The 2011 Volvo C70 is a comfortable, slightly cheaper option among entry-level luxury convertibles.
