We'll have to wait until the Paris motor show to see all of the upcoming Volvo C30 hatch, but AutoExpress offers a quick, Tuesday-morning teaser. The spy shots were taken as the C30 — a coming rival to the VW Golf, Audi A3 and Mini Cooper — was getting flogged amidst the extreme cold of caribou country. AE reiterates that a 260-hp R version will handle hot-hatch duties, with Volvo's corporate 2.4-liter inline five (turbocharged, natch) under the hood.
