It has been some time since we’ve heard anything about Volvo’s plans for a smaller-than-S40 sports car, but in a recent interview, Volvo Cars of North America CEO Vic Doolan promised just that.
“I think we have a very interesting car coming out at the end of next year,” says Doolan, who would only elaborate that the production car in question would be a sporty, front-wheel-drive car, and larger than a two-seater.
Most likely, Doolan is referring to this Mazda 3/Euro Focus/S40-derived model dubbed V30, which will probably arrive as a three-door hatchback powered by a turbo-charged I4 engine. Doolan also hints he would like to see a smaller version of the XC90, a more stylish and sporty five-seater with great performance. Could an XC30 be in our future?
