The exterior design of the C30 is based on the 2001 SCC concept car, which was inspired by the 1800ES, the estate adaptation of the P1800 Coupe. According to Simon Lamarre, chief studio designer, "the 1800ES has become one of the icons for Volvo," inspiring the design of the Volvo C30.

The production car was officially unveiled at the 2006 Paris Motor Show.

The interior design is similar to the S40 & V50: the majority of parts including the instrument panel, 'floating' centre stack and steering wheel are shared by the three cars.
