Last month, Fields Volvo Northfield talked about the honors that the Volvo brand has received because of their top safety features and programs. The Volvo brand recently released a film to highlight the other side of safety – humans. We are a huge part of the equation when it comes to automotive safety. This film shows you how the advanced safety technology can change lives for the better. Keep reading for additional information on this film.
The Volvo brand has always gone above and beyond to make sure their vehicles are safe by incorporating the latest technology and safety advancements into their vehicles. The film features a young girl and shows everywhere life will take her. But it comes to a halt when she steps in front of a Volvo vehicle. Thankfully the vehicle senses her and applies the autonomous emergency brake.
"This film featuring the new XC60 highlights how important active safety systems have become and reflects Volvo’s leadership in this area. We launched our City Safety autonomous emergency braking system as standard equipment in all new Volvos back in 2008, starting with the first generation XC60. Today, these systems are finally becoming an industry standard," said Anders Gustafsson, Senior Vice President, Region EMEA at Volvo Car Group.
Because of the efforts the Volvo brand has made crashes in Sweden have decreased 45 percent. Come check out the safety technology the Volvo brand vehicles are known for at Fields Volvo Northfield.
