Among the Volvo lineup of automobiles seen around Denver is the Volvo C70. The 2010 Volvo C70 is scheduled for a redesign in 2011, but this attractive hardtop convertible is one that has met the needs of a number of drivers. Other cars in its class of upscale midsize cars may be considered sportier or having higher performance, however, the C70 has a well-deserved safety record and is elegantly styled as well as comfortable. According to a review published in US News and World Report the Volvo C70 is similar to a “new breed of convertible that has taken over the upscale midsize car segment. They are rear-wheel-drive, sporty cars with hardtop roofs and coupe-like profiles. Their folding steel roofs mean they are usable year-round in moderate climates, and boast similar crash test scores to many sport coupes and sedans.”
The Volvo C70 was an early entrant in its class and the planned redesign is anticipated by the car’s followers. The car is front-wheel drive propelled with a five-cylinder engine. The C70 competes with other cars in its class including the BMW 3-Series and Leux IS C, both rear-wheel drive cars with performance-tuned V6 engines and sporty handling. However, the C70 has a reputation for its good looks, as does the Infiniti G37 convertible.
Still the C70 can be a good choice for certain car buyers. A strong point for the Volvo brand has long-been safety. Other notable features include a comfortably large back seat and perhaps the largest of trunks among all hardtop convertibles. Although the Volvo C70 may not beat competitors in zero-to-sixty comparisons, as a comfortable top-down cruiser it is likely worth at least a test drive and consideration.
Selected quotes from reviewers include:
- “Like most Volvos, the C70 is high on style but lacking in driving excitement. The folding metal hardtop gives the security of a coupe and year-round usability, but it lacks the driver appeal of a BMW, Audi, or Infiniti convertible." --Car and Driver
- "It's a step below most like-priced convertibles for all-around performance, but the C70 is a pleasant, stylish, well-built blend of top-down fun and fixed-roof security. A comfortable ride and decent trunk space add to its appeal." -- Consumer Guide
- “With its retractable hardtop, attractive interior, well-mannered ride and long list of safety features, the 2010 Volvo C70 is a prime contender in the premium convertible segment, but milquetoast performance means some competitors will leave it behind.” -- Edmunds
- "This solid-topped, shudder-free convertible has put the bad cowls out to pasture. It prances down the roadway like a thoroughbred." -- Boston Globe

About Denver
The City and County of Denver is the capital and the most populous city of the state of Colorado, in the United States. Denver is a consolidated city-county located in the South Platte River Valley on the High Plains just east of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. The Denver downtown district is located immediately east of the confluence of Cherry Creek with the South Platte River, approximately 15 miles (24 km) east of the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Denver is nicknamed the Mile-High City because its official elevation is exactly one mile, or 5,280 feet (1,609 m) above sea level. The 105th meridian west of Greenwich passes through Union Station, making it the reference point for the Mountain Time Zone. The city of Denver's area is much smaller than that of Colorado's second most populous city, Colorado Springs.
The United States Census Bureau estimated that the population of Denver was 598,707 in 2008, making it the 24th most populous U.S. city. The 10-county Denver-Aurora Metropolitan Statistical Area had an estimated 2008 population of 2,706,947 and ranked as the 21st most populous U.S. metropolitan statistical area and the 12-county Denver-Aurora-Boulder Combined Statistical Area had an estimated 2008 population of 3,049,562 and ranked as the 16th most populous U.S. metropolitan area. It is also the second-largest city in the Mountain West after Phoenix. Denver is the largest city in the Front Range Urban Corridor, a fast growing combined statistical area stretching across eighteen counties in two states. The population of the Front Range Urban Corridor CSA is estimated at 4,251,663. The city has the tenth-largest central business district in the United States. Source: Wikipedia.
