Description: In 1994, TWR rejoined the BTCC in partnership with Volvo. This collaboration led to the creation of the controversial 850 Estate racing car, which remained competitive until the FIA permitted aerodynamic aids in 1995. Subsequently, TWR developed and raced the 850 Saloon, achieving six wins in 1995 and five in 1996, with the S40 securing a win in 1997 in the BTCC.
In 1998, TWR Volvo clinched the British Touring Car Championship with Rickard Rydell at the helm of the S40. TWR also contributed to the design of the road-going Volvo C70 coupe and convertible. The Volvo S40 BTCC, an iconic super touring car from the late '90s, competed in the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) and the Swedish Touring Car Championship (STCC). Key details include:
1. Engine: The S40 BTCC featured a 2.0-liter, naturally aspirated 5-cylinder engine with individual throttle bodies, capable of producing up to 290 bhp (around 320 bhp in the final STCC seasons) and revving up to 8,500 rpm.
2. Championship Success: Rickard Rydell piloted the S40 to the 1998 BTCC championship victory.
3. Weight: The minimum weight of the car was set at 975 kg.
4. Development: TWR (Tom Walkinshaw Racing) developed the S40 to succeed the Volvo 850 Estate in the BTCC.
5. Legacy: The S40 continued to race in Sweden with Flash Engineering until 2002 after its tenure in the BTCC.
For racing enthusiasts, the Volvo S40 BTCC represents a remarkable era in touring car racing.
