Volvo safety technology.
Because people are only human.
Cars are driven by people. That’s why all our safety research and development continues to investigate the
capabilities, limitations and tendencies of human nature. This people-centric research is always based on real
situations, and with the vision to create cars that do not crash.
To help you avoid accidents while maintaining the fun of driving, Volvo safety technologies are designed to
support the driver in various situations without unnecessary interference. All these intelligent technologies
share information and interact with split-second precision. Today, a new Volvo can “read” actual situations
and provide optimal support and protection for example, by sensing normal driving patterns or panic situations
and by taking protective action before, during and after a collision. Still, technology can never take the
responsibility away from you, the driver. Final decisions are always in your hands. But if these technologies
help make you more alert and relaxed, they will also contribute to the overall safety of those in and around
your Volvo.
Volvo Accident Research Team
Since 1970, Volvo’s Accident Research Team has investigated accidents involving Volvo cars on Swedish
roads. Today, our own statistical database contains over 36,000 accidents with more than 60,000 occupants.
In addition to studies on the scene of the accident, our researchers also investigate what happened before
the crash to understand how to improve the driver’s conditions to avoid a collision. These findings give us
unique knowledge that guides us in creating technology that helps prevent or mitigate accidents and, if an
accident can’t be avoided, to help protect the occupants.
Volvo Cars Safety Centre
Based on the findings from our accident research, we can recreate a variety of real-life traffic situations
and crashes. Beyond numerous virtual crash tests in super-computers, we perform around 400 crash tests
each year. We crash test car-to-car at different speeds and from different angles. We perform frontal
impacts, rear impacts, side impacts and roll-over tests and test cars off-road as well as against genuine
Swedish granite rock-face, we can even simulate impacts with wild animals.
If you make it here, you make it anywhere
Other car manufacturers come to Sweden for final car testing under harsh and capricious conditions.
For us it’s home. Our own proving ground Hällered with its 34 miles of test tracks includes different road
types from all over the world. Here we scrutinise our cars’ ability to support their drivers in all imaginable
and unimaginable situations during thousands of test kilometres, not to mention the distances driven
on ordinary Swedish roads.
Towards a future where cars don’t crash
We already know what we want to achieve: no accidents. By applying a holistic approach which considers
the driver and the vehicle as well as the infrastructure, we can realise a future where cars interact with
other cars, the road and the traffic-control systems. For example, this includes cars that can brake and
steer automatically, if needed. This makes it possible to design cars in completely new ways to protect
and preserve life.
“Cars are driven by people. Therefore, the guiding
principle behind everything we make at Volvo is
– and must remain – safety.”
Assar Gabrielsson and Gustaf Larson, founders of Volvo

The three-point safety belt
In 1959, Nils Bohlin, a Volvo safety engineer, invented the three-point safety belt. So important is this
invention, it is considered to be one of the most life-saving technical innovations in the history of mankind.
The three-way catalytic converter with Lambda sensor
In 1976, Volvo Cars was the first car manufacturer to introduce the three-way catalytic converter
with Lambda sensor for exhaust emission control. Today virtually all petrol powered cars are fitted with this
ingenious component, just as indispensable for the environment as the three-point safety belt is
for safety.
WHIPS (Whiplash Protection System)
In 1998 Volvo introduced this unique front seat integrated technology to help protect occupants from
whiplash injury in the event of a low speed rear impact. It’s considered one of the most effective systems in
the automotive world.
ROPS (Roll-Over Protection System)
This technology including a roll sensor that activates various restraint systems in a roll-over was introduced in
1997 in the Volvo C70 convertible. In 2002 ROPS was further enhanced with the Roll Stability Control (RSC)
in the Volvo XC90. ROPS is available in the Volvo C70, XC90 and XC60.
CWAB (Collision Warning with Auto Brake)
In 2006 this radar and camera based technology became available in a Volvo to help alert the driver, and
even help mitigate a crash by braking the car, if the distance to the vehicle in front becomes too short.
Collision Warning with Auto Brake is available in the Volvo S80, V70, XC70 and XC60.
DAC (Driver Alert Control)
Introduced in 2007, this Volvo innovation can detect erratic driving behaviour due to tiredness or
inattentiveness and remind the driver it may be time for a break. Driver Alert Control is available
in the Volvo S80, V70, XC70 and XC60.
City Safety collision avoidance technology
In 2008, Volvo Cars introduced the new XC60 with City Safety, the world’s first standard-fitted collision
avoidance and mitigation technology active at speeds up to 19 mph. Helping to lower the risk of low-speed
collisions and whiplash injury, City Safety is a major step towards safer urban driving. At the moment, City
Safety is available in the Volvo XC60.
There’s more to life than a volvo.
For decades, we’ve created cars that encourage people to enjoy life and help protect it in the event of
an accident. Many of the most important car safety innovations are the hallmark of Volvo, and hundreds
of thousands of people all over the world can say they’re still alive thanks to Volvo ingenuity.
This is not by coincidence. Our founders stated that safety is, and shall always be, at the heart of what
we do. As a result, Volvo is recognised the world over for our passion and dedication to provide the safest
cars on the road.
The protective character of Volvo also encompasses the world we share. Already in 1972, Volvo was the
first car manufacturer to acknowledge and actively respond to the environmental impact of cars. In fact, we
invented the three-way catalytic converter, and are constantly innovating to reduce the environmental
impact of the cars we make and how we make them.
Of course, choosing a Volvo will always be something you do for both yourself and the people around
you, because our cars will always consider the well-being of everyone. Even if those people happen to be
outside your car or are part of future generations.
that’s why we innovate for life.

What’s in it for you?
We are committed to creating cars that contribute to a better
life, be it inside or outside the vehicle. Utilising advanced
technology, your Volvo is designed to use fuel efficiently and
reduce its impact on the environment. And nowhere is this
more evident than in Volvo’s new environmentally optimised
DRIVe variants. This caring attitude continues inside your
Volvo. Here you and your passengers can experience one
of the automotive industry’s cleanest and healthiest cabin
environments. It’s as enjoyable as it’s responsible. Just as you
would expect of a Volvo.
Safer interior materials.
All our upholsteries and interior textiles are
tested for certain allergy-inducing or harmful
substances and comply with Oeko-Tex
Standard 100. And several interior metal
details are tested with regard to contact
allergies. Good for you, and for anyone
who shares your ride.
Recycling.
To help minimise its total environmental
impact, the Volvo XC60 already complies
with proposed stringent European
recycling directives.
Cleaner exhaust.
Fast responding after a cold start, Volvo’s advanced emission
control eliminates between 95 and 99% of carbon monoxide,
hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides from petrol engine exhaust
gases. The Volvo turbodiesels feature a particulate filter that
removes about 95% of the particles from the diesel exhaust.
Allergy-approved interior.
CZIP (Clean Zone Interior Package) provides cabin
air that is so clean it is recommended by the Swedish
Asthma and Allergy Association.
Fresh cabin air.
Continuously monitoring incoming air and shutting out carbon
monoxide, ground-level ozone and nitrogen dioxide, Volvo’s
Interior Air Quality System helps ensure that the air you
breathe in the car is cleaner than that outside when driving
in heavy city traffic.
Maximised fuel efficiency with diesel.
Volvo’s advanced common-rail turbo-diesel technology
ensures superior fuel economy and lower CO2
emissions, choose between the all-wheel drive D5 or
the new CO2optimised front-wheel drive 2.4D DRIVe.
Fuel-saving design.
To reduce energy-loss from wind and roll
resistance, we utilise advanced aerodynamic
design, light-weight materials and low-friction
technology. Together with state-of-the-art
engine technology, this lowers your CO2
emissions and helps you travel further on fuel.
159g CO2per km.
Our latest eco-progress, the front wheel
drive Volvo XC60 DRIVe, satisfies itself with
up to 47.1 mpg* for minimum emissions and
maximum style.
*Based on a combined cycle.
FSC certified interior wood trim.
Choosing the Nordic Light Oak or Classic wood trim you can
be confident that the wood in the interior trim comes from
responsibly managed forests and is certified according to
FSC (Forest Stewardship Council).

Because nobody likes
pollution but everybody
likes to drive.
Thirty years ago the CEO of Volvo said, “Our cars produce pollution, noise
and waste.” This truth inspired us to do more than just make cars safer to
be in. Starting with innovations like the three-way catalytic converter with
a Lambda sensor to today’s seven new eco-designated DRIVe models,
our goal at Volvo is crystal clear: to build cars that leave a minimal impact
on the environment. DRIVe captures all our environmental work – from
production to recycling – and represents our commitment and continued
efforts for sustainable mobility.
Today's DRIVe models are equipped with state-of-the art diesel engines
optimised to reduce fossil fuel-based CO2emissions. In addition, some
DRIVe models are equipped with Start/Stop technology that allows the
engine to switch off when the car is at a standstill – saving even more
fuel. Thankfully, the imperative to make our cars more earth-friendly has
inspired innovations that make these DRIVe cars even more rewarding
to drive.
Our corporate responsibility
At Volvo Cars, our overriding objective is to balance the needs of our
company, our customers, society and future generations in a sustainable
way. To find out more, please visit www.volvocars.com/sustainability
Motion
We must minimise the emissions of fossil CO2(which leads to climate change) and
increase the energy efficiency of our cars. Continuous improvements within
aerodynamics, rolling resistance, lightweight materials and drivetrain technology
help us lower fuel consumption. To significantly reduce fossil CO2emissions, we
offer many DRIVe turbodiesel variants with lower CO2emissions. We have also
introduced Powershift, a new fuel-saving dual-clutch automatic transmission
technology. In our new Hybrid technology centre in Göteborg, we develop the
next generation power trains for future Volvos. The goal is that we use hybrid
technology in all of our car models.
Inside
Weknow that more and more people are suffering from asthma and allergies.
To ensure a healthy interior for you and your passengers, we test upholsteries and
interiors in the Volvo Environmental Laboratory in Sweden. All upholstery
materials and interior textiles also comply with Oeko-Tex Standard 100,
an international benchmark for human ecological safety of textiles. All leathers
are chromium-free, they’re tanned using vegetable or synthetic substances
instead of chromium. And to meet high requirements on an allergy-friendly interior,
we’ve developed the Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) together with the
Swedish Asthma and Allergy Association. What’s more, some panel trims are
Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified to ensure the wood comes
from responsibly managed forests.
Lifecycle
Already from the early stages of conception we’ve, considered our cars’ environmental
impact: from design and manufacturing to useful life and recycling. For example,
we’ve seen to it that our factories are powered by electricity produced by wind and
hydro power and use energy and water responsibly. Our production facilities are
certified under the global environmental standard ISO 14001, and we make
sure that all our major suppliers meet our strict environmental standards. At the
end of its useful life, every Volvo is designed to be 85% recyclable. We also offer
re-manufactured exchange parts which substantially reduces the need for raw
materials and energy.
Please note: Some of the environmental technologies are only available on certain Volvo models
and may be optional. For more information, talk to your Volvo dealer or visit www.volvocars.co.uk
