SAFETY Protective
Volvo’s interactive safety technologies In a Volvo, safety is about interaction. Because it’s not the number of safety features that determines how safe a car is, it’s how well they seamlessly interact to help protect the occupants in the event of a collision. IN A REAR IMPACT the rear deformation zones will help absorb crash energy. The fuel tank is designed to remain well protected in front of the rear axle. The head restraints help protect the neck and spine, and Volvo’s unique WhiplashProtection System (WHIPS) cradles the front seat occupants in a controlled manner to help prevent whiplash injuries. IN A SIDE IMPACT Volvo’s unique Side Impact Protection System (SIPS) helps distribute the crash forces across the car’s body, away from the occupants. The side airbags in the front seats help protect the chest and hip, while the Inflatable Curtain (IC) adds head protection. IN A ROLLOVER a gyroscope activates Volvo’s Roll-Over Protection System (ROPS). The safety belt pre-tensioners deploy to help keep occupants more securely restrained, and the Inflatable Curtain (IC) helps provide head protection. Additionally, the safety cage is reinforced to help keep the passenger compartment intact. IN A FRONTAL COLLISION the patented frontal structure will yield to help absorb and disperse crash energy. The compact power train is designed to help optimize deformation. Inside the car, safety belts interact with the collapsible steering column and dual-stage airbags to help keep the occupants out of harm’s way. Pre-prepared restraints – a unique Volvo technology – helps optimize the various restraint systems for expected crash force. A lower cross member helps protect occupants in an oncoming car with lower positioned bumpers.
