What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Volvo C30
| 2013 Volvo C30 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 2dr Hatch turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5 6-speed manual FWD |
The front seats are wonderful. I tend to get stiff and sore when I sit too long in a car, especially my old VW GTI and our other VW Passat wagon. These seats in the C30 are very comfortable and I felt good getting out after a long drive. see full Volvo C30 review |
