Volvo 480 Turbo Cabriolet Concept - 1990
This topless Volvo was shown as a design study at the 1990 Geneva Motor Show. it was designed in the Netherlands by Rob Koch and a handful cars were built. It never reached series production, however. The time was not right for an open Volvo. Seven years later, the open Volvo C70 Convertible was unveiled.
The Targa bar helped to make the body more rigid and also acted as a protective roll bar.
