XC90 Standard Safety Package

 "With the XC90, we take the first step towards self-driving cars. A new function that automatically follows the vehicle ahead in stop-and-go traffic will provide a radically simplified, semi-autonomous driving experience,"

- Lex Kerssemakers, Senior Vice President, Product Strategy and Vehicle Line Management of Volvo Car Group.

All-new XC90 - one of the safest cars in the world

The all-new Volvo XC90 will offer the most comprehensive and technologically sophisticated standard safety package available in the automotive industry. It includes two world first safety technologies, a run off road protection package and auto brake at intersection capability. City Safety, the umbrella name for all of Volvo Cars' auto brake functions, is also standard equipment. It covers vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians in front of the car, both day and night. These innovations contribute to making the all-new XC90 one of the safest cars ever made.

Run-off Road Protection

The all-new XC90 features a world-first solution that addresses accidental road departure. The functionality detects what is happening and the front safety belts are tightened to keep the occupants in position. The belts are firmly tightened as long as the car is in motion. To help prevent spine injuries, an energy-absorbing functionality between the seat and seat frame cushions the vertical forces that can occur when the car encounters a hard landing in the terrain. The solution is capable of reducing the vertical occupant forces by up to one third. The video illustrates the basic principles of the world first run-off road protection technologies.

Park Assist Pilot

Park Assist Pilot offers automatic reversing into a parking bay as well as entering and exiting a parallel parking spot. The functionality takes over and operates the steering wheel while the driver handles the gearbox and controls the car's speed. The display guides the driver step by step via texts and animations in the instrument cluster until the car is parked. The video illustrates the basic principles on how Park Assist Pilot works. This video is with a generic car, not the all-new XC90.

Cross Traffic Alert

Cross Traffic Alert covers the driver's back when reversing out of a parking space. It warns of oncoming traffic up to 30 metres on each side, alerting the driver with an audible signal and a warning in the centre screen. The video illustrates the basic principles on how Cross Traffic Alert works. This video is with a generic car, not the all-new XC90.

 360? Surround view

The all-new XC90 also features a 360° Surround view that gives the driver a bird's-eye view, an overview of the surrounding area, seen from a point above the car. The bird's-eye view is enabled by four concealed fish-eye cameras - one integrated into the front, one integrated in each of the door mirrors and one fitted above the rear number plate. The video illustrates the basic principles on how the 360? Surround view works. This video is with a generic car, not the all-new XC90.
