What's New

The second-generation Volvo C70 made its debut in 2006. But while the original C70 was available as a coupe or a convertible, the new model blended the two body styles into one with Volvo's first retractable hardtop design. The only changes for 2007 consist of improvements to the standard audio system, including the addition of a new auxiliary-input jack, MP3-playback capability for the CD player, and optional Sirius Satellite Radio.

Reviews

Volvo spent years trying to change public perception as a purveyor of boxy cars that were safe if uninspiring. The last several years have seen Volvo putting just as much effort into performance and styling as they have into safety. When the original C70 debuted in 2002 as both a coupe and convertible, it seemed that Volvo couldn't get much further from the staid 240 model that served them so well for so many years...or could they? Volvo proved they had yet another trick up their sleeve when they introduced the second-generation C70: they had combined the coupe and convertible into one single vehicle.
