Volvo C70 Generation I – från idé till succé

Volvo C70 Generation I: From Concept to Success by Bo Algers, Björn Fredholm, and Jan-Aage Haaland. Why did Volvo, known for making cars for a broad audience, suddenly decide to design and build a luxury coupe and convertible? How did Volvo, known for its angular styling, manage to achieve such flowing lines? Who left their mark on the car that is now approaching collector’s car status? This is the first historical book about the Volvo C70, and it recounts how the model came into being and was developed through interviews with various key figures. The trio of authors possesses in-depth knowledge and a deep passion for the subject; Bo Algers founded the Swedish Volvo C70 Club in 2011 and served as its president for the first ten years; Björn Fredholm was head of quality and environment at the Uddevalla plant where the C70 was produced; and Jan-Aage Haaland served as vice president of the C70 Club for ten years and founded C70 Magazinet in 2017.
