The sense of touch and smell
The interior of the car is characterised by Scandinavian design. Light colours and
elegant, clean lines and form create a feeling of genuine quality, especially to the touch.
The choice when it comes to materials and colours is impressive. Two new colours,
Venetian Red and Moondust, and a new dashboard inlay known as black marble effect,
are introduced this year.
Mother Nature's fragrances on a warm day with the top down, combined with the special
scent of the leather upholstery, make the Volvo C70 convertible a wonderful experience
for the sense of smell as well.
The soft top is fully automatic. It is operated and locked in place with one press of a
button. There are no hooks, no attachments - and no manual work requiring strong
wrists. When it is folded down, the soft top is concealed behind the rear seat. The
electrically-heated rear window is made of glass.
The soft top comes in four colours to match the paintwork and is hardwearing, quiet and
windproof. A windblocker which can be fitted behind the front seats is optional.
The climate unit is flexible. With the soft top up, it is fully automatic. When the soft top
is folded down, the unit changes to manual operation, as the sensors are unable to
measure and regulate the temperature.
The sense of hearing
Like the Volvo C70 coupe, the Volvo C70 convertible has what is probably the most
sophisticated audio system on the market.
This system is an important and integrated part of the total experience. For quality
reasons, the loudspeakers are fitted at the factory. Their position and size have been
carefully chosen to enhance the sound experience to concert level, to do complete justice
to every kind of music, no matter whether it is hard rock or the world-famous Vienna
Boys' Choir.
Ten loudspeakers are standard. A package with 12 or 13 speakers is available as an
option. These speakers have been developed in collaboration with Danish Dynaudio, one
of the world's best-known companies in this field. The radio section features an RDS
tuner and an integrated CD changer for three discs. The tone curve is adapted
automatically, depending on whether the soft top is up or down.
The Volvo C70 convertible can also be equipped with a Dolby Surround ProLogic
system, which produces a highly sophisticated level of sound reproduction with an "all-
round-experience".
