December 31st, 1969 Volvo has released a range of performance and styling enhancements for its C30, S40 and V50 wagon, which are due to go on sale by the end of the year. Labeled R-Design, the new kits replace Volvo’s current Sport trim levels and is similar to the S-line packs offered by Audi. Additions to the car’s exterior include R-Design badging on the grille, color-coded bumpers, a rear-roof spoiler, a silver matt finish for the grille and wing mirrors and unique 17 or 18in alloy wheels. Inside, the cars are available with two-tone black and cream upholstery with R-Design labeling, a leather trimmed steering wheel, blue instrument dials and an aluminum center stack with matching sports pedals. The kit comes in two trim levels, basic Sport and the more expensive SE Sport, and is available as an option for all models in the C30, S40 and V50 lineup except the 2.4L petrol variants.
