Here at Volvo, we place a high value on the safety and protection of our drivers and passengers. We're proud to report that our vehicles are equipped with some of the most advanced safety equipment available to ensure this protection! One of the newest features is Volvo's Crash Avoidance, and your friends here at Fields Volvo Northfield are here with some news on this feature. Read on to learn more!

Every year, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety releases their Status Report, which reviews a survey given to current owners. In the most recent report, it's reported that "Volvo owners give thumbs-up to crash avoidance features." All of us here at your favorite new Volvo dealer agree!

These owners' opinions are confirmed with data from the Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI), which found that "the rate of property damage liability claims for Volvos with standard City Safety is lower than for other vehicles in the same class." Very impressive!

Here's what Volvo officials had to say:

"Safety is in our DNA and our commitment to safety is at the core of our values. … These findings underscore how much our customers take comfort in knowing that our safety systems work as intended and protect them in real-life scenarios."

-          Adam Kopstein, safety and compliance manager at Volvo Cars of North America
