JeffW Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 Do you think they'll make an HPT model?IMO not nearly as sporty as the old C70s. The "snub-nosed" body style just doesn't seem to be growing on me. I like it fine for an S40, but not for a C70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappo Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 The "snub-nosed" body style just doesn't seem to be growing on me. I like it fine for an S40, but not for a C70.This styling isn't all by choice. Pedestrian collisions are high in Europe, so they are enacting impact standards. You will see a lot of cars with higher front ends like this, not just from Volvo. It does seem to be a styling thing for US cars, but pedestrian impacts would have no infulence in that.

Kashif Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Do you think they'll make an HPT model?The engine specs are exactly like that of the S40 T5, so I think it is a HPT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
