To go with the flow
has nothing to do with speed.
Manual gearbox
There’s a six-speed manual gearbox that inspires
a sportier style of driving and helps to reduce fuel
consumption.
Geartronic automatic transmission
Geartronic is a five-speed automatic that’s both
smooth and responsive. It harmonizes perfectly with
the Volvo C70 and when you’re in the mood for more
activity, nudge the lever over to manual mode to shift
up and down with a press of the gear lever.
T5 (218 hp)
This high-performance five-cylinder T5 engine boasts a turbocharger and variable all valve timing,
which delivers an exceptional 235 lb. ft. torque, from 1500 to 4800 rpm, for quick and powerful
response.
Chassis steering
The low chassis is designed for comfort and balanced handling. High torsional rigidity enables
the suspension system to cope predictably and consistently with different types of road surfaces.
Electro-hydraulic steering offers quick and crisp response, while the rear wheels turn slightly to
help the car corner neatly.
