STEERING
Speed-dependent, power-assisted, electro-hydraulic, rack and
pinion steering. Tilt and telescopic steering column. Leather-clad
steering wheel. 2.6 turns lock to lock. Turning circle 38.7 ft.
PERFORMANCE
In a Volvo, power train and chassis interact to strike
the perfect balance between excitement and stability.
And to further enhance the experience, additional
technologies are available.
Behind the wheel, you can enjoy responsive yet firm steering that
gives progressively less power assistance the faster you drive.
High steering precision and balanced road feedback are easily
enjoyed benefits.
BRAKES
Power-assisted anti-lock disc brakes (ABS), ventilated discs
front. EBA (Emergency Brake Assistance). EBD (Electronic Brake
Distribution) between the front and rear brakes. Diagonally split
braking system.
SPECIFICATIONS
ENGINE
DRIVELINE
Five-cylinder in-line engine. Double overhead camshafts, 20
valves. Continuously variable valve timing on both the intake and
exhaust side. Three-way catalytic converter with heated oxygen
sensor. Electronic engine management system. Light-pressure
turbocharger and dual-charge air coolers (Intercoolers).
Front wheel drive. Transverse engine with a five-speed Geartronic
automatic allowing manual shifting.
Powerful anti-lock disc brakes help ensure a short stopping
distance under all circumstances and withstand tough use
without fading. EBA helps you use your brakes to the full in an
emergency situation, while EBD distributes the braking effect
between the front and rear wheels in order to achieve optimal
results according to the car’s load and driving conditions.
The Geartronic is a responsive five-speed automatic. It can also
be shifted manually so that you can maintain a lower gear to rev
the engine or provide the added assistance of engine braking.
Volvo’s smooth-running five-cylinder engines are designed to
respond at low rpm, so there’s plenty of torque without having
to shift to a lower gear. This is made possible by continuously
variable valve timing, low internal friction and the electronic
engine control system. This also helps to optimize fuel consumption
and reduce environmental impact – all engines comply with
stringent emission standards, such as California’s ULEV II.
Volvo C70 T5 (227 hp)
CHASSIS
Engine type: 2.5 liter five-cylinder turbocharged engine
Max power output: 227 hp at 5000 rpm
Max torque: 236 ft. lbs/1500-4800 rpm
Acceleration 0-60 mph, man/auto: 7.0/7.4 sec
Top speed, man/auto: 149/146 mph
Front suspension with spring struts (McPherson), anti-dive and
anti-lift function. Multilink independent rear suspension. Stabilizers
front and rear. DSTC (Dynamic Stability and Traction Control).
The rigid body enables the suspension to function optimally for
well balanced handling and a high level of comfort. The front
and rear suspensions also interact to provide stable braking and
smooth steering. The DSTC stability system lends a helping hand
if either of the drive wheels begins to lose traction or if a skid is
imminent.
