What Our Members Are Saying about Volvo C30 Materials and Workmanship
| Available Features of the Volvo C30: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 2dr Hatch turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5 6-speed manual FWD |
Nothing looks or feels cheap. Paint on the plastic and metal match perfectly. Joints are tight and consistant. Welds are very consistant. Materials feel thick and substantial. |
| 2009 | 2dr Hatch turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The fit and finish (materials, tolerances, etc.) are far superior to other hatches I test drove. The seat materials and comfort are amazing. Great upholstery for base option. |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5 6-speed manual FWD |
The large doors feel really solid for example. The interior seems to be made of high quality materials. Nothing feels cheap in this car. |
