The FIA World Touring Car Championship weekend in Spain proved to be a tough but rewarding challenge for Volvo Polestar Racing. Despite problems in qualifying, Robert Dahlgren managed to climb from 17th to 9th in both races.
With the C30, Volvo made its debut in the segment for two-door premium cars. The sporty design, with two doors, four individual seats, and a glass tailgate, gave a young and dynamic group of customers "a Volvo of their own".
