The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) provides 3
different ratings -
full-width frontal crash test
,
side impact crash test
, and
rollover resistance
. The frontal crash test indicates how
well the safety features and restraints
will protect an occupant in a head-on
collision. The side-impact test conveys
the chance of a severe chest injury,
while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

Description:
|
On certain passenger vehicles, a combination of throttle positioning sensor irregularities, a dirty throttle housing, and/or inefficient software calibration may cause a warning lamp to light and the subsequent onset of limp home modes. This resulted in a high number of vehicles going into the limp home mode without need. Dealers will install the current software upgrade onto the involved vehicles. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule for this recall. Owners may contact Volvo at 1-800-458-1552.

Summary:
|
Style is standard, wind in your hair is optional.
By Sue Mead, NewCarTestDrive.com
Whether Coupe or Convertible, the Volvo C70 is a stylish car. While Volvo has maintained its reputation for safety, the C70 led the company away from its traditionally stodgy, boxy look in favor of a fresher image. More than any other model in its lineup, the sporty and free-spirited C70 Convertible represents the winds of change blowing through the company. |
|
Overview:
|
The Volvo C70 is one of the most stylish vehicles Sweden has ever produced. A provocative and passionate expression of Scandinavian design purity, the C70 blazed the trail for the transformation of Volvo design with an inspired vision of aggressive automotive athleticism. Sexy curves gracing the C70 Coupe and Convertible can make you forget you're driving a car built by a company best known for being boxy but safe. C70 shows just how cool Volvos have become. They boast powerful engines, beautifully crafted interiors, and a driving experience that's rewarding. The convertible drenches you in sunshine and whisks all your cares away with the wind. Add the taut suspensions and crisp steering and the C70 makes for a pleasant vehicle.
