Volvo C70 Manuel utilisateur
PASSENGER
COMPARTMENT
Four adults travel in comfort -
even on long trips. Individual
sports seats in genuine leather
and a number of thoughtful
touches make every journey a
pleasure.
Electrically-adjustable front
seats are options that add to
comfort. They also facilitate
getting into and out of the rear
seat -just pull a lever on the
backrest and an electric motor
moves the driver or passenger
seat for access.
A luggage compartment
opening with an integrated
protective bag hidden behind
the rear seat's centre armrest
makes it possible to transport
l
ong and narrow objects even
with the rear seats occupied.
A well-insulated top with an electrically heated glass rear window make the Volvo C70 a car experience for all seasons. What is more, the sense of freedom is never further
away
than the touch of a button.
When the top is raised, the automatic climate unit
maintains the set temperature inside the car -
however much the temperature outside fluctuates.
The driver and front-seat passenger can regulate
the temperature individually for each side.
At the touch of a button, the top is raised or
l
owered in less than thirty seconds. There are no
catches to release or fasten. When lowered, the
top is recessed beneath a hatch in the body.
All four side windows can be raised or lowered
simultaneously. To further refine comfort in the
front seats while still being able to enjoy the open
air, use the wind deflector supplied as standard.
THE THRILL OF EXCITEMENT FOCUSES THE SENSES AND ENHANCES THE SENSATION OF BEING
ALIVE. THE FEELING OF BEING SAFE ADDS TO BALANCE AND HARMONY - ALLOWING YOU TO
ENJOY THE EXPERIENCE TO THE FULL. WHICH EXPLAINS WHY WE DESIGNED THE VOLVO C70
TO BE ONE OF THE MOST SAFETY-MINDED OPEN CARS IN THE WORLD.
ENERGY-ABSORBING
I
NTERIOR
All the panels and door
sides are padded with
energy-absorbing
materials to help reduce
the risk of injury to the
occupants.
AIRBAGS
The driver and
passenger* airbag
i
nteract with the front
safety belts, pre-
tensioners and force
li
miters to protect the
head, face and chest in a
frontal or offset impact.
* The car can also be ordered
without a passenger airbag.
WHIPS WHIPLASH
PROTECTION
Volvo's own system to
help reduce the strain on
the spine and neck if the
car is hit from behind at
l
ow speed. Built into the
front seats and activated
by a sufficiently severe
i
mpact.
SIPS SIDE-IMPACT
PROTECTION
Distributes crash forces
i
n a side impact across a
l
arge part of the body of
the car so as to help
minimise the strain on
the occupants.
Reinforced with
extremely strong doors
and a robust horseshoe-
l i
ke structure in the rear.
The front seat side
airbags offer maximum
head and chest
protection.
ROPS ROLL-OVER
PROTECTION
I
f the car rolls over, an
electronic sensor triggers
the bars concealed in
the rear bodywork, along
with the safety belt pre-
tensioners for all four
seats. The rear bars act
together with the sturdily
reinforced windscreen
frame to serve as a roll-
over cage.
CHILD SAFETY
Small children ride most
safely in Volvo's
rearward-facing child
safety seats (option)
with the ISOFIX attach-
ment system for the rear
seats and the front
passenger seat if no
front airbag is fitted.
Larger children sit safely
on a booster cushion
(option) if they are
secured with the safety
belt.
SAFETY CAGE
The sturdy safety cage
surrounds all the
occupants and is dimen-
sioned to withstand
extreme physical stress.
SAFETY BELTS WITH
PRE-TENS ION ERS
All seats have head
restraints and three-
point safety belts with
pre-tensioners. In a
crash or roll-over
accident, the safety belt
i
s pulled tight to help
provide maximum
protection. The front
safety belts then slacken
slightly so that the
occupant is cushioned
by the airbag in a
controlled way.
PERSONAL SECURITY
An electronic
i
mmobilises and door
l
ocks that withstand
most break-in attempts
help protect against
theft. Home Safe lighting
li
ght up your path from
the car at the touch of
the headlamp lever. A
remotely controlled
alarm is available as an
option.
CRUMPLE ZONES
The front and rear
crumple zones dissipate
and distribute incoming
collision forces so as to
reduce the physical
strain on the occupants.
WHIPS (Whiplash Protection System) reduces the strain on the spine and neck in rear-end collisions.
I
t is integrated in the front seats and is activated if a rear impact is sufficiently severe.
I
n a Volvo C70, safety is built in from the very start. A finely-tuned chassis and powerful brakes
give you full control in all situations. An active stability system boosts the safety margins still
further, for instance, if you are driving on slippery roads. And if an accident simply cannot be
avoided, you and your fellow occupants are protected by the same world-leading safety systems
that save lives in other Volvo cars - as well as by Volvo's unique roll-over protection system. If
you end up in a situation in which the car is about to roll over, the bars concealed in the body-
work at the rear of the car are activated in an instant. At the same time, the safety belt pre-
tensioners are activated on all four seats, keeping you and your passengers securely in place.
"
CARS ARE DRIVEN BY PEOPLE. THE GUIDING PRINCIPLE
BEHIND EVERYTHING WE MAKE AT VOLVO, THEREFORE,
I
S - AND MUST REMAIN - SAFETY."
ASSAR GABRIELSSON AND GUSTAF LARSON,
THE FOUNDERS OF VOLVO.
YOU CAN ENJOY THE OPEN AIR WITH A CLEAN CONSCIENCE. HIGHLY EFFICIENT EXHAUST TREATMENT ENSURES THAT
THE VOLVO C70 MEETS STRINGENT ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS. AT THE SAME TIME, FUEL CONSUMPTION IS KEPT
DOWN SO AS TO MINIMISE EMISSIONS OF CARBON DIOXIDE.
THE MUSCULAR EXTERIOR HINTS AT THE POWER OF
THE SMOOTH, QUIET FIVE-CYLINDER TURBO.
YOU HAVE THREE PETROL ENGINES TO CHOOSE
FROM:163 BHP, 200 BHP AND
245 BHP. WHICHEVER
YOU CHOOSE, YOU WILL HAVE AN ENGINE WITH THE
POWER AND RESPONSE FOR EVERY SITUATION.
SPORTY
The 245-bhp turbocharged five-cylinder 2.3-litre engine
yields very high torque over most of the engine speed
range. The high charge-air pressure in the turbo means
extra power at high engine speeds; this is an engine that
i
nspires driving.
RELAXED
The 163-bhp and 200-bhp turbo engines give maximum
torque at low engine speeds - you get moving quickly and
rarely need to shift down for overtaking, for example. The
l
ower charge-air pressure at high engine speeds makes
acceleration a little gentler, but still very powerful.
TRANSMISSIONS
If
you prefer to change gear yourself, you will enjoy the
smooth and distinct five-speed all-synchromesh manual
transmission.
Alternatively, you can choose the responsive five-speed
adaptive automatic which adjusts gearshifting patterns to
suit your driving. A special winter mode makes it easier to
get moving - and keep moving - on slippery roads.
The five-speed adaptive automatic monitors
your driving style and then automatically
selects one of two gearshift modes: 'Sport' for
faster shifts down and higher performance, or
'
Economy' for lower fuel consumption and
cleaner emissions.
ON THE ROAD
THE RARE COMBINATION OF
PERFORMANCE, ALERTNESS AND STABILITY
MAKES IT EASY TO ENJOY LIFE BEHIND THE
WHEEL OF A VOLVO C70. BECAUSE IT IS
ONLY IN A CAR WHERE YOU FEEL SAFE
THAT YOU CAN ENJOY PURE DRIVING
PLEASURE.
The Volvo C70 has front-wheel drive. A
torsionally rigid body combined with
broad track and our patented rear
suspension, Delta-link, give both a firm
grip on the road and a superb ride
comfort. The rear axle allows the rear
wheels to steer slightly so that they can
work together with the front wheels when
entering a curve. The result is remarkably
swift steering response, together with
control throughout the turn.
STC ANTI-SPIN SYSTEM
With STC (Stability and Traction Control),
you have even greater stability on slippery
roads. If one or both of the drive wheels
starts to spin, the torque is restricted
i
nstantaneously so that the wheel can
regain its grip. STC also makes sure that
you can get moving more easily if you
have to start off on a slippery surface. It
gives enhanced stability when cornering
and reduces understeer when
accelerating out of a curve. The system
works at all speeds - via the braking
system at low speeds, and by reducing
the engine torque at higher speeds.
POWERFUL ABS BRAKES
The braking system is generously
dimensioned with disc brakes all round -
ventilated at the front - and ABS anti-
l
ock brakes. It also uses triangle-split
circuits, so that you can brake with
unimpaired stability even if one circuit
should fail. EBD (Electronic Brake
Distribution) distributes the braking
power between the front and rear wheels
so that the car always brakes as
effectively as possible, even when heavily
laden. The
front suspension is designed
to counteract the tendency to dive at the
front when braking or lift when
accelerating sharply meaning greater
comfort and better brake distribution.
