Volvo C30 Engines and Transmissions

You can pick a Volvo C30 engine that matches how you drive: petrol or diesel, with different transmissions. Examples include the 1.8 MT gasoline manual, the 2.0 DSG diesel with a robotic gearbox, and the 2.4 AT gasoline automatic, all with a front-wheel-drive drivetrain.

Volvo C30 Trims and Equipment

Volvo C30 trim levels describe equipment packaged with a technical version, not a different car. On the 1.6 MT Hatchback 3-door, you keep the gasoline engine, manual gearbox and front-wheel drive, while OP30 Optima names one equipment configuration for that setup.
