Bodywork details such as the front wings have also been redesigned, contributing to the decidedly altered appearance. The nose is more wedge-shaped and has been given added three-dimensional depth by moving some elements of the front both longitudinally and vertically. The new headlamps and the décor around the foglamps, for instance, have been angled offset up and to the rear, at the same time as the detailing of the lower grille has been enhanced.

From head-on, the front forms an open, inviting “V”. The enlarged iron mark and the new, larger air intake reinforce the self-assured stance. Owners who want to be seen even more can specify a dramatic new red colour, Flamenco Red Pearl.

“The new C70 has a clearer, more pronounced face. The car`s natural elegance has been modernised so it blends seamlessly with the most up-to-date, the most sophisticated backdrops,” says Fedde Talsma.

Exclusive new rear design

The exclusive high-tech LED lamps, of the same type as found on the Volvo XC60, are the most noticeable update at the rear. The entire lamp unit is clearly integrated with the oval that frames the new C70`s rear panel.

As at the front, new lines and details in the bumper and elsewhere have been integrated to emphasise the depth and dynamism of the design language.

Interior that rewards the driver

The interior has been updated in several respects to create a unique ambience in the Volvo C70. The instrument panel has been redesigned, giving it a wider, sleeker look and the surface of the panel has a new texture that enhances the feeling of quality.

For the first time, HEICO SPORTIV will be exhibiting at the Geneva Motor Show in cooperation with Volvo Automobile (Schweiz) AG, where it will be presenting the new edition of the Volvo C70.

The new Volvo is a vehicle of many qualities. An exhilarating coupé and smart convertible in one, it`s Scandinavian elegance targets highly discerning people placing maximum demands on design and individuality.

HEICO SPORTIV is broadening the comprehensive mass production portfolio, offering some very eye-catching icing on the cake. “Our program kicks in where Volvo`s leaves off. It`s characterized by supplementation rather than substitution,” explains HEICO SPORTIV General Manager, Holger Hedtke.

Uncompromising in functionality and design
A credo with which HEICO SPORTIV has dedicated itself to the Volvo C70. The front spoiler forged in flexible, lightweight polyurethane plastic (PUR) dissolves into the profile like an OEM element, providing for the distinctively sporty but unobtrusive look. Unmistakable, evocative forms take up again at the rear, where the diffuser and stainless steel exhaust system with four round chrome plated end pipes form a single, harmonious unit. Sound included!
