Volvo City Safety

May 1, 2009

New York, NY. (March 28, 2008) Volvo City Safety – Volvo Cars’ in-house developed technology for avoiding low-speed collisions – is receiving the American “Traffic Safety Achievement Award” at this year’s World Traffic Safety Symposium in New York

 City Safety is yet another example of Volvo’s aim to utilize real world traffic situations to develop solutions to prevent accidents. It is extremely gratifying that we are now being acknowledged with this prestigious award,” says Jonas Ekmark, head of preventive safety at the Volvo Cars Safety Center. 

  “At this year’s World Traffic Safety Symposium held at the New York International Auto show, a panel of experts consisting of traffic safety specialists from institutions such as the Department of Transportation and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reward various developments that reduce the number of injuries and fatalities on American roads. Volvo’s safety feature, City Safety, made a huge impression on the jury members owing to its ability to prevent or lessen the severity of collisions at low speeds, thus reducing the risk of personal injuries and damage to vehicles.  “Volvo offers this type of feature as standard equipment,” says Arp. “City Safety clearly signals that the new XC60 is one of the safest cars Volvo has ever produced. The car is packed with our accumulated safety know-how and technology, both when it comes to helping to prevent accidents and protecting all the occupants in a collision.”

Volvo will be the world’s first to install City Safety as standard equipment in a vehicle. Launched later this year, the XC60 is Volvo’s first car to have this system. Approximately 75% of all collisions are at speeds less than 18 mph.  In 50 percent of cases the driver does not even brake before the collision and the reason is usually insufficient concentration. If the vehicle in front brakes suddenly and City Safety assesses that a collision is imminent, the brakes are prepared for action. If the driver does not take action, the car is braked automatically. At speeds less than 9 mph, City Safety can entirely avoid accidents, at speeds between 10-18 mph, the system applies brake force to reduce vehicle speed and help reduce occupant injuries and vehicle damage.

“With City Safety, we hope to eliminate whiplash injuries, to both vehicles involved in typical city driving low speed accidents along with eliminating vehicle body damages,” states Ekmark. “Even with just reducing vehicle speed, this system will help to consequences of low speed impacts. The potential for reducing the risk of both personal injuries and car bodywork damage makes City Safety highly interesting from an insurance perspective. Volvo Cars is currently involved in negotiations with several insurance companies in Europe who are considering an insurance premium discount of up to 30 percent for cars equipped with City Safety.


Volvo S60 Concept

May 1, 2009

IRVINE, Calif. (Dec. 16, 2008) A few days before Christmas, Volvo Cars treats the automotive world to an early unwrapping of a car that will shine bright in the streets for years to come.
The Volvo S60 Concept gives the car world a glimpse of what the all-new Volvo S60 is going to look like when it arrives in 2010.”The all-new S60 will be one of the strongest players in a segment where the competition is razor-sharp,” says Volvo Cars President and CEO Stephen Odell.

The coupe-inspired lines that gave the original S60 its characteristic stance are even more pronounced in the next generation.
“The sporty design gives visual promise of an enthusiastic drive and I can assure you here and now that the all-new S60 will live up to that promise. The driving properties are better than in any previous Volvo. The car’s technology will also help you to be a better and safer driver,” says Stephen Odell.
The concept car reveals that the Volvo Cars design team is stepping up to the next level in the development of the products’ DNA.
“The concept car’s exterior gives a clear indication of what customers can expect of the all-new S60. On the inside we’ve been even more daring – there the focus has been on creating a vision of the future in the slightly longer perspective,” says Volvo Cars Design Director Steve Mattin.
