A battery-powered version of Volvo's existing C30 (above) is set for 2012
Speaking to Register Hardware at the recent UK launch of its latest C30, S40 and V50 DRIVe models, the company said the electric C30 – no official name yet - will not feature the in-wheel motors seen on its 2007 C30 ReCharge hybrid concept car.
Technical details are still scarce, but Volvo stressed that the electric C30 is far from an evaluation mule. It sees the car as a proper development prototype."
