WHAT IS THE VOLVO C30 T5 ? WELL, IT’S NOT YOUR PARENTS BORING VOLVO, THIS ONE ROCKS, AND LOOKS COOL!

THE VOLVO C 30 IS A THROWBACK TO THE P1800 and today we review it and drive it around the rolling hills and B roads of Whidbey Island. Back in 1961, the first P1800s were rolling onto the streets. For the next 12 years, Volvo produced the P1800 with a few variants, one being the iconic P1800ES - the wagon variant. The rear hatch on this two-door wagon was so iconic that Volvo ended up using it’s design cues on not one, but two future models. The Volvo 480, released in Europe in the mid-80’s, was one of these models. This model was considered the successor to the P1800 and the predecessor to the C30. Like the P1800, it included a large rear window as a part of the rear hatch. From the rear view, the cars look very similar even after 13 years between production ranges. It would be 5 years after the discontinuation of the 480 before we saw those body lines reappear. Based on the Ford Global C-car Platform, the Volvo P1 chassis was kicked off with the release of the 2004.5 S40 and V50. Then just over a year later, the 2006 Volvo C30 came to market. Just like the P1800 and 480 before it, the Volvo C30 shared the iconic rear hatch design with an enormous window providing outstanding visibility. However, with Volvo’s newest hot hatch came some serious upgrades over previous models. Similar to the turbocharged 5-cylinder’s that came before it, the C30 T5 came with 227 horsepower in stock form. That number is almost double what came in the P1800ES. Paired with an M66 transmission, the C30 was arguably one of the best driver’s cars Volvo has ever produced. Weighing it at just 2,930 pounds (1,329 kilograms), the C30 was the lightest car Volvo offered at the time. The car’s light weight and short wheel-base made it very nimble in the corners, and we have seen many C30 owners make slight modifications to make the car handle even better than it did in stock form.
