Heico Volvo C30 DRIVe Facelift
Tuner HEICO SPORTIV has created a new tuning package for the facelift Volvo C30 1.6D DRIVe. The tuner claims a strong base is already in place from the stock car which has eco-friendly technologies like stop/start with a brake-energy recovery system and a fuel consumption of only 3.9 litres per 100km.
“This is our basic starting point for proving that ecologically friendly action and the pleasure of driving don’t need to be mutually exclusive,” said general manager Holger Hedtke. He continued, “In doing so, aerodynamically optimised components such as the radiator grille or under-floor intentionally remain untouched.”
Power and torque increase from 109 bhp and 240Nm to 125 bhp and 280Nm respectively. The 0 - 100km/h sprint time is set at 9.2 seconds. HEICO SPORTIV claims theirs is 2.1 seconds quicker than the factory car. It also has a 200km/h top speed.
The car features some additions by the tuner on both interior and exterior. On the inside of the car these include aluminium or leather-covered handbrake, door pin set and gear lever grip.
The car’s exterior features a HEICO SPORTIV front spoiler, sport rims in 18 and 19-inch size in three colours, and a stainless steel double and quad pipe exhaust system. Performance enhancers include a differential lock and a sports suspension lowered by 30mm.

Dedicated Volvo tuner Heico Sportiv has turned its attention on the new XC60 with new upgrades for the compact crossover. The German-based firm’s exterior package is limited to the body colored bumpers and the addition of a front lip spoiler and a rear skirt that incorporates a new set of tailpipes. Also available for the XC60 are custom alloy wheels in different styles and sizes and a sport suspension kit that that brings the crossover 30mm closer to the ground.
Heico Spotiv has developed a new ECU for both diesel and petrol variants of the XC60. The reprogrammed ECU helps boost output of both the diesel units to 210HP, while the 285HP T6 turbocharged gasoline engine gains an extra 30HP for a total of 315HP.
