Just like the cabrio, the C30’s changes are more noticeable at the front of the car.
The new look was obviously borrowed from the S60 Concept, which marked the range’s rebirth. The S60 will be making its way to the Geneva Motor Show in early 2010.
The rear of the Swedish compact car has also been updated, including the more obvious lettering on the glass hatch.
Another feature to note about the C30 is the new colour option, "Orange Flame Metallic", which guarantees it impossible to miss on the streets.
Though cosmetically, the car has has undergone changes in terms of its new colours, materials and lower body panel, the overall shape of the C30 has not changed.
Mechanically, the line has not evolved, with its 5 gas and 4 diesel models, ranging in output from 109 to 230 horsepower.
The new Volvo C30 will debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
