Heico Sportiv gives owners of the Volvo C30 1.6D D DRIVe facelift a new exterior and power kit
HEICO SPORTIV offers a new tuning package to the Volvo C30 1.6D DRIVe. According to the tuner, the stock car has a solid base and eco-friendly technologies such as stop/start with brake-energy recovery system and a fuel consumption rate of 3.9 litres for 100 km.
Holger Hedtke, general manager of HEICO SPORTIV, stated that this is the starting point to prove that eco-friendly action and driving pleasure don’t have to be mutually exclusive. Aerodynamically optimized components like the radiator grille and under-floor are intentionally left unchanged.
The power and torque increases from 80kW (109bhp), 240Nm, and 92kW (175 bhp), respectively. 9.2 seconds is the sprint time from 0 to 100 km/h. HEICO SPORTIV claims theirs is 2.1 seconds faster than the factory car. It can also reach speeds of 200 km/h.
Exterior features include a HEICO SPORTIV front spoiler and sport rims in 18-inch and 19-inch sizes in three colors, as well as a stainless steel quad and double pipe exhaust system. A differential lock and a 30mm lower sports suspension are other performance enhancements.
Interior accessories include a leather-covered or aluminium handbrake, door pin sets and gear lever grips.
