4 5 Push the right buttons and tune into the moment. MUSIC DOWN TO YOUR CORE, TO THE INNER YOU AND IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH YOUR HEART AND SOUL. THAT’S WHAT A TRULY EXCELLENT AUDIO SYSTEM CAN ACHIEVE FOR YOU. FOR THE VOLVO C70 WE HAVE DEVELOPED A UNIQUE TOP OF THE LINE SYSTEM FEATURING DYNAUDIO AUTHENTIC FIDELITY. YOU’LL FIND IT IN OUR PREMIUM SOUND SYSTEM. THE DOLBY PRO LOGIC II SURROUND SOUND ENSURES YOU’LL FEEL THE MUSIC ALL AROUND YOU.
The Premium Sound system’s twelve Dynaudio high-end speakers are powered by a 5x130 watts digital amplifier. There are three separate drivers—woofer, midrange and tweeter—in each door, and in the side panels at the rear seats a similar set-up with woofer and tweeter. Each speaker has its own crossover filter to harmonize with the others. The system also includes two 8" subwoofers with a 2x130 watts amplifier to ensure that the beat goes on.
From a hot convertible to a beautiful coupe in less than 30 seconds. And back again. THE UNIQUE THREE-SPLIT RETRACTABLE HARDTOP IS FULLY AUTOMATIC. WHILE THE CAR IS STATIONARY, PRESS AND HOLD THE BUTTON ON THE CENTER CONSOLE AND THE 3-SECTION RETRACTABLE HARD TOP IS DOWN IN LESS THAN 30 SECONDS. IF YOU DECIDE THE WEATHER’S NOT RIGHT, ANOTHER PRESS OF A BUTTON QUICKLY PUTS YOU BACK UNDER COVER.

12 13 The safer you are, the freer you feel. ABS brakes with EBA The anti-lock brakes are designed for effective braking even during repetitive and intensive use. You can brake as hard as you like as the system helps you steer clear of trouble. EBA (Emergency Brake Assistance) detects attempted emergency braking and, when necessary, provides added assistance to bring the car to a standstill in the shortest possible distance. Visibility One of the most important criteria for safe driving is good vision.
SURE YOU WANT TO HAVE FUN IN YOUR VOLVO C70. STILL YOU WANT ALL THE SAFETY YOU EXPECT FROM A VOLVO. THAT’S WHY THE VOLVO C70 IS PACKED WITH PREVENTIVE SAFETY INNOVATIONS. NOT TO MENTION PROTECTIVE FEATURES IF AN ACCIDENT DOES OCCUR. BY INTERACTING WITH EACH OTHER, OUR SAFETY SYSTEMS MAY HELP PREVENT ACCIDENTS BEFORE THEY HAPPEN. THE DRIVER ERGONOMICS IS ONE EXAMPLE OF THIS; DSTC, ABS/EBA AND GOOD REAR VISIBILITY ARE OTHERS. FEELING SAFE AND COMFORTABLE MEANS YOU CAN ENJOY YOUR RIDE TO THE FULLEST.
14 15 The Volvo Cars Safety Centre—one place it’s not safe to drive a Volvo.
POSSIBLY THE MOST ADVANCED FACILITY OF ITS KIND, THE VOLVO CARS SAFETY CENTRE IS WHERE WE CRASH TEST EVERY CAR MODEL WE MAKE. BEYOND COUNTLESS COMPUTER SIMULATIONS, WE CONDUCT OVER 400 FULL-SCALE COLLISIONS EACH YEAR. THESE TESTS ARE BASED ON WHAT OUR RESEARCHERS DISCOVER ON THE ROAD—WE’VE INVESTIGATED OVER 35,000 REAL ACCIDENTS SINCE 1970. IN FACT, EVERYTHING WE DO TO MAKE CARS SAFER BEGINS WITH A REAL-LIFE TRAFFIC SITUATION.
16 17 The most important parts of life are often found in the small print. The safety cage is a rigid construction that interacts with other safety systems to help protect the occupants. Strategic parts of the structure such as doors, door posts and door sills are heavily reinforced. Longitudinal aluminum struts help to distribute the impact of a frontal collision through the doors toward the rear. All seat belts tension across the body for enhanced effect in a crash.
18 19 Your personal security is our overall mission. Remote-controlled central locking A touch of a button locks or unlocks the doors, trunk lid and storage compartments. A double locking feature, available when the top is down, sets the locks so that the doors cannot be opened from the inside. You can also open all windows simultaneously, and the door locks can be set to lock automatically the moment you drive away. Alternatively, lock them quickly using the button beside the interior door handle.
DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE VOLVO C70 IS AN OPEN CAR, THE OCCUPANTS’ BELONGINGS CAN BE PROTECTED AGAINST THEFT. WITH THE HARDTOP UP, THE C70 PROVIDES A MUCH HIGHER LEVEL OF ANTI-THEFT PROTECTION THAN A SOFT-TOP. BUT EVEN WITH THE TOP DOWN THE ADVANCED LOCKING SYSTEM AFFORDS SECURE STORAGE OF PERSONAL ITEMS. AN ALARM AND GROUND LIGHTING ARE OTHER PERSONAL SECURITY FEATURES.
20 21 Treat life like you want it to treat you.
YOU WANT A WORLD WITH FRESH AIR TO BREATHE AND CLEAN WATER IN THE SEA. FOR BOTH YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN. OF COURSE, YOU WANT TO AVOID ALLERGIES FROM CONTACT WITH DIFFERENT MATERIALS. AND, IF YOU COULD RECYCLE THE MAJORITY OF YOUR CAR’S WEIGHT, YOU WOULD. NO POINT IN LEAVING ANY UNNECESSARY TRACES BEHIND. IN OTHER WORDS, WITH YOUR VOLVO C70 YOU’RE TREATING THE RESOURCES OF THE WORLD WITH RESPECT. JUST LIKE YOU WANT TO BE TREATED YOURSELF.
