2011 Volvo S60
Spy shots don’t come any clearer than this! Our spies have caught Volvo’s curvy new S60 saloon, completely undiguised and in production trim, at a photo shoot in Sweden.
Taking its inspiration from the stunning S60 concept, which made it’s debut at the Detroit Motor Show this year, the showroom-ready version features the same swooping coupe roofline and neatly rounded edges. It’s even painted in the same copper-coloured paint job!
Gone are the concept’s suicide doors and carved crystal centre console, but the S60 still promises to showcase some cutting edge technology. A 1.6-litre direct-injection turbo engine, mated to a twin-clutch transmission promises to deliver outstanding fuel economy and punchy performance, while advanced safety equipment such as full auto braking with pedestrian detection will come as standard.
Volvo Recalls 11,993 Vehicles for Electrical Problem
If you’re the owner of a 2008-2010 Volvo S80, 2009-2010 XC70, or 2010 XC60, expect to take your car to the dealership later this month or during October. A recall is under effect for 11,993 vehicles for electrical issues.
Without this signal, the fuel pump might not be activated, leaving the driver to travel a short distance before the engine stalls. It’s not clear whether any accidents have been reported, but the free recall and software upgrade should begin by the end of the month.
2011 Volvo C30
This is the facelifted Volvo C30, revealed ahead of its public unveiling at next week’s Frankfurt motor show next week.
The front and rear of the car have been redesigned, taking cues from the S60 concept and the recently revealed C70.
Front-end changes include new panels for the wings and bonnet, and a larger Volvo logo in the restyled honeycomb grille, in line with all the other current models.
Buyers of all engine variants except the 1.6D DRIVe stop-start model can also opt for a new Sports chassis, which Volvo describes as giving the car “a sharper ride”. Changes include sharper steering, a tighter steering ratio that gives a 10 per cent faster response to inputs, increased spring stiffness and stiffer dampers.
Volvo is also making the polished stainless steel exhausts visible on T5 and D5-powered models, adding metallic orange to the colour choices, and offering two new wheel options, one of which is white.
Interior changes include a range of new upholstery colours.
The C30 can also be specified with a new styling kit, which includes a fog lamp surround and front and rear skidplates.
There are five diesel options, ranging in power from 107bhp to 177bhp, and three petrols, ranging from 99bhp to 227bhp. These include two DRIVe eco models powered by the 1.6-litre diesel engine. The version with stop-start averages 72.4mpg and emits 104g/km of CO2, while the version without the system averages 62.8mpg and emits 119g/km.
