Drivers decide to buy new Volvo vehicles for a variety of reasons. For starters, they come with state-of-the-art tech features, excellent gas mileage, and great power and handling. And, of course, they are designed and built with safety in mind. The new Volvo XC40, for example, comes with an assortment of standard safety features, including the following.
Blind Spot Monitoring
With this system, you’ll never have to worry about being caught off guard when changing lanes. It will monitor the cars around you and let you know whether or not it's safe to go.
Forward Collision Warning and Automatic Emergency Braking
If a potential collision is detected, forward collision warning will send you a quick alert. If you don’t take fast enough evasive action, automatic emergency braking will kick in and apply the brakes for you.
Lane Departure Warning and Lane Keep Assist
With lane departure warning and lane keep assist, you will be notified if your car starts drifting. Your course will then be corrected if you don’t do anything.
Rear Parking Sensors
With rear parking sensors, you’ll never have to worry about backing into a tight space when parking. These sensors will let you know if you’re getting too close to another object.
Rain-Sensing Windshield Wipers
Sometimes it’s nice when your car knows things that you don’t. Rain-sensing windshield wipers will start working as soon as any rain is detected to give you the best visibility possible.
The Volvo XC40 can also be equipped with many other safety features, such as:
- Automatic parking assist
- Adaptive cruise control
- Front parking sensors
- Surround-view parking camera
