Features | Volvo Cars

Pilot Assist

For smoother driving in heavy traffic, Pilot Assist can lend a helping hand by providing gentle steering support to help keep the car centred in its lane and at a set speed. And if there's a vehicle in front of you, it can adapt your speed to help keep a set distance. Active from standstill up to 130 km/h, Pilot Assist steering support can facilitate driving in stop and go traffic as well as driving on the motorway. Adding to your comfort, it uses map data from the navigation system to automatically adapt cruising speed in curves. If you don't keep a hand on the steering wheel, Pilot Assist is automatically switched off and you’ll be alerted by a discreet vibration in the steering wheel. Pilot Assist is part of IntelliSafe Assist.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled as well as for maintaining the correct distance and speed, even when Pilot Assist is being used. Advanced driver assist systems, such as Pilot Assist, are restricted in how much acceleration, braking and steering force they can apply.

Adaptive Cruise Control

Adaptive Cruise Control adapts the speed to help you maintain a safe distance to slower vehicles. Just select desired speed and time gap to the vehicle in front, and enjoy smooth driving from standstill up to 200 km/h. At speeds over 70 km/h, Adaptive Cruise Control also supports overtaking by brieﬂy accelerating your car towards the vehicle in front when you turn the indicator on. It adapts to the ECO and Dynamic drive modes, which helps you save fuel or enjoy a more dynamic driving experience. It’s intelligent too: using map data from the car’s navigation system, Adaptive Cruise Control identifies hills ahead and adapts the speed to help optimise your comfort and safety. Adaptive Cruise Control is part of IntelliSafe Assist.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, this is only a supportive function.

Distance Alert

Supplementing the Adaptive Cruise Control, this function helps you keep a proper distance to the vehicle in front and alerts with a warning light in the optional head-up display if you come too close.

Oncoming Lane Mitigation

Using automatic steering assistance, this system helps you avoid collisions with oncoming vehicles. If you drift across the lane markings in the way of an oncoming vehicle, your car steers back.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, this is only a supportive function.

Prepared front safety belts

When your Volvo detects an imminent collision or run-off road accident, our prepared front safety belts tighten electrically to help provide maximum protection. If a collision is avoided, the front safety belts unroll again without needing to be serviced.

Knee airbag, driver side

Further helping to protect the driver’s lower legs in the event of a frontal collision, there’s a knee airbag installed above the pedals. The knee airbag is deployed together with the other airbags and supplements the safety belt, the safety belt pre-tensioner, the brake pedal release and the integrated knee protection under the dashboard to help optimise protection.

Oncoming Mitigation by Braking

The Oncoming Mitigation by Braking is a Volvo safety world first that can detect if a vehicle heads straight towards your car on the wrong side of the road. If a collision can’t be avoided, it will brake your car automatically to further help reduce the effects of an impact.

City Safety with Steering Support

Looking out for you and braking or helping to steer away if necessary, City Safety adds to relaxed control. This Volvo safety innovation detects other vehicles as well as pedestrians, cyclists and large animals – day or night. City Safety supports you with audible, visible and brake pulse warnings when needed. If a collision is imminent or if you should turn into the path of an oncoming vehicle in an intersection, City Safety can brake automatically to help you avoid or mitigate an impact. The Steering Support function helps you take evasive action at speeds between 50 and 100 km/h. As you begin to steer away from an obstacle in front, City Safety can help you make this manoeuvre as efficient as possible by braking the inner wheels individually and reinforcing your steering input.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, this is only a supportive function.

Lane Keeping Aid

Lane Keeping Aid adds convenience and safety to motorway driving. If you're about to cross a lane marking without using the indicator, it will gently steer your car back into the lane. If the steering intervention is not enough or you keep steering across the lane markings, you'll be alerted with vibrations in the steering wheel. Constantly monitoring your position on the road, Lane Keeping Aid provides smooth support at speeds between 65 km/h and 200 km/h.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, this is only a supportive function.

Run-off road Mitigation

Run-off road Mitigation helps prevent you from leaving the road accidentally. If you stray over the outer lane marking or the road edge, it will support you in steering the car back on the road. If needed, this Volvo safety innovation will also activate the brakes to help keep you on the road. Run-off road Mitigation operates at speeds between 65 km/h and 140 km/h.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, this is only a supportive function.

Driver Alert Control

Driver Alert Control gently alerts if your driving behaviour shows signs of distraction or tiredness. If needed, it will give you an audible warning and a message on the instrument panel suggesting you take a break. Active at speeds over 65km/h, a camera checks the road ahead while Driver Alert Control monitors your steering inputs to see how they compare to your regular driving style. Combined with Sensus Navigation, it can also propose a nearby place to have a break.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, this is only a supportive function.

Road Sign Information

Road Sign Information helps keep you updated on current trafﬁc restrictions. Using a camera or information from the Sensus navigation system, it alerts you on speed limits, "no overtaking", "no entry" and various types of supplementary signs. The road sign is displayed on the speedometer or in the head-up display. If you exceed the speed limit, Road Sign Information can alert you with a ﬂashing speed limit sign icon. It can also inform you about speed cameras. And if you drive in the wrong direction on a one-way street, you'll be alerted with a no-entry sign icon.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, this is only a supportive function.

Speed limiter

The speed limiter helps ensure that you don't exceed a set speed. When you reach the set speed you'll be noticed by a subtle resistance feedback from the accelerator. To override the function, just press down the accelerator.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, this is only a supportive function.

Run-off road protection

Your Volvo helps protect in a run-off road accident. If a road departure is unavoidable, the front safety belts tighten to help keep you safely positioned. Our unique front seat structure helps protect your spine if the car lands heavily. An energy-absorbing functionality between the seat and seat frame deforms to cushion the vertical forces. This Volvo safety innovation together with a robust body structure and our other restraint technologies helps provide the best protection in a collision.

Electronic Stability Control, ESC

Adding to your control, Electronic Stability Control helps optimise traction and minimize the risk of skids at all speeds in all conditions. And by counteracting understeer and oversteer, it also contributes to safer and more fun cornering characteristics. Electronic Stability Control can detect a potential skid and take action to prevent it by reducing engine power and/or braking the appropriate wheels. It also senses body roll movement to reduce the risk of losing traction in emergency manoeuvres and sharp corners. And when you brake on surfaces with different friction on one side of the car, the car automatically applies slight counter-steering to help you maintain stability. Adding to more dynamic driving characteristics, our Dynamic Torque Vectoring utilises the car's stability reserves to make it respond exceptionally quick and precise to your steering inputs. And our Corner Traction Control with torque vectoring gives more traction during high-speed cornering, less understeer and more powerful acceleration. It works by braking the inside driven wheel if it starts to lose its grip through a corner, while sending the power to the outer wheel instead. Understeer Control Logic is another innovative technology that further helps minimise understeer tendencies for more stable and dynamic cornering. And if you’re in the mood to take more control when driving dynamically, select Sport Mode to cut out the engine power reducing function and allow a controlled amount of rear wheel slip.

Emergency Brake light and Hazard Warning

Our Emergency Brake Light helps alert vehicles approaching from behind if you are forced to panic brake. It works above 50km/h and knows the difference between normal and panic braking. If it is a panic stop, the brake lights will flash at a rate of four times per second, which will telegraph a clear message to following traffic that there’s a potential problem ahead. Once you slow to below 10km/h, the brake lights stop pulsing and your hazard lights take over.

Brake pedal release

In certain frontal collisions, the brake pedal is designed to release and move down to the floor to help reduce the risk for injuries on the right foot and leg when the foot is on the brake pedal. This Volvo safety innovation is triggered by the same sensors that activate the safety belt pre-tensioners and airbags when needed.

Brakes with Hill Start Assist and Automatic Hold

Efﬁcient brakes are vital for your driver conﬁdence and safety. They're also part of the dynamic driving experience and incorporate IntelliSafe technologies as well as convenient features such as Hill Start Assist and an automatic hold function. In an emergency situation, the large anti-lock disc brakes will make all the difference. The brake system is smart too: if you shouldn't brake hard enough, our Emergency Brake Assist ensures maximum braking pressure is applied. And if you suddenly lift off the accelerator or sensors detect an obstacle in front of the car, Ready Alert Brakes instantly moves the brake pads closer to the brake discs to reduce the total stopping distance. Adding to your convenience, our automatic hold function keeps the brakes engaged after you have braked the car to standstill and release the brake pedal. And to make it easier and safer to start uphill or downhill from standstill, Hill Start Assist keeps the brakes applied a short period after you have released the brake pedal until you press the accelerator – your car will not move while your foot moves from the brake pedal to the accelerator.

Automatic braking after a collision

Helping to reduce the risk for more damage and injury after a collision – like colliding into other cars or people – your Volvo brakes automatically when the safety belt pre-tensioners or an airbag are activated.

ROPS™ roll-over protection system

In a rollover situation, the unique roof construction helps protect the occupants. Meanwhile, our ROPS™ system instantly activates the safety belt pre-tensioners and the Inflatable Curtain to provide additional protection for you and your passengers.

RSC™ roll stability control

Our RSC™ roll stability control senses and helps prevent an impending roll-over accident. If required, it cuts engine power or brakes one or more of the wheels just enough to reduce the centrifugal force and help regain your car's balance.

Safety cage in high-strength steel

The body of your Volvo helps provide maximum protection in all types of accidents. You and your passengers are surrounded by an extremely strong safety cage, while front and rear deformation zones help reduce the effects of an impact. The sturdy safety cage helps keep the occupant space intact in a crash and is made from one of the strongest types of steel available. Together with the energy-dissipating front and rear crumple zones and the car's interior restraint technologies, this helps protect the people inside your Volvo in any collision. In a side-collision, our side-impact protection system SIPS™ distributes the crash force across a large portion of the car’s body to further reduce the risk of injury. And in a roll-over accident, the strong roof construction helps protect the occupants.

SIPS™ side impact protection system

SIPS™ side impact protection system helps protect you and your passengers in a side-collision. The body's steel framework displaces the impact of a side-collision away from the occupants to other parts of the car body. The extremely strong side structure helps withstand a severe side impact – even with a larger vehicle. The Inﬂatable Curtain and the front seat side airbags interact with the SIPS™ to help provide further protection for the front seat occupants. In the rear, SIPS™ and the Inﬂatable Curtain help protect the passengers in the outer rear seats.

Collapsible steering column

The steering column is an advanced part of the safety system, with the upper and lower sections giving way in a controlled manner in a frontal impact to help protect the driver.

Side airbags

In a side-collision, the side airbags inflate instantly to help protect the chest and hip of the driver and front seat passenger. The side airbags are located in the ideal spot on the front seat backrest.

Dual-stage airbags, driver and front passenger

Together with the safety belts, the frontal airbags help protect your head, face and chest in a frontal collision. They're intelligent too: to optimise protection, the airbags adapt the level of inflation to the force of the impact. And if the impact is low enough that the airbags aren’t needed, the system will just deploy safety belt pre-tensioners if necessary. To make it possible to mount a child seat in the front passenger seat, the passenger airbag can easily be disconnected using a cut-off switch.

Inflatable Curtain

Our Inflatable Curtain helps protect your head and neck in a side collision or roll-over. Helping to provide protection for occupants sitting on the sides including the third row, it deploys from the roof above the doors and rear-most side windows. The Inflatable Curtain also helps protect in some frontal collisions and stays inflated for several seconds to provide prolonged protection in the event of secondary impacts.

Head restraints

The head restraints of your Volvo help offer outstanding protection regardless of a person’s height, whether they are seated in the front or the rear. And the rear middle head restraint can be fully retracted into the backrest to improve the driver’s rearward visibility. The outer rear head restraints can fold forward at the press of a button (optional) to further improve rear vision. In the folded position, they obstruct passengers from sitting down without raising the restraints to their upright position.

WHIPS™ whiplash injury protection system

WHIPS™ is a Volvo safety innovation that efficiently helps reduce the risk of whiplash injury if your car is hit from behind. At an impact, the entire front backrest and head restraint moves with the occupant to support the neck.

Protective front seats with energy absorbing seat structure

Helping to protect your spine if the car lands hard after an accident, the front seats' energy-absorbing functionality can cushion severe vertical forces. Integrated anti-submarining protection helps reduce the risk of sliding under the safety belt in a collision. The ﬁxed head restraints help offer outstanding protection regardless of a person’s height.

Safety belts with pre-tensioners and load limiters

A Volvo innovation, the three-point safety belts are the foremost safety feature inside your car. In a collision or roll-over, pre-tensioners instantly tighten the belts to keep the occupants tightly restrained. They then release a little to reduce the strain. This also means that the driver and front passenger are cushioned by the airbags in a controlled fashion. To help ensure maximum protection for you and your passengers, the safety belts also interact with the steering wheel column and supplementary restraint technologies such as the side airbags and the Inflatable Curtain.

Energy-absorbing interior

All the panels and door sides are padded with energy-absorbing materials to help reduce the risk of injury to the car’s passengers.

Warning triangle

Conveniently fitted on the inside of the tailgate, the warning triangle is always easily accessible – no matter how much luggage you have in the load compartment. This lightweight wide-angle reflector stands upright to alert other road users even in strong winds and on slippery surfaces. It folds easily and stores in its own case.

First-aid kit

Make sure you are carrying the emergency items you need with this handy first-aid kit. Conveniently carried in the load compartment and containing a variety of bandages, the kit’s contents are stored in different compartments making it easier and quicker to locate items.

IntelliSafe Surround includes IntelliSafe Standard plus the following

IntelliSafe Surround

IntelliSafe Surround includes supportive technologies that allow you to enjoy even better lookout around your car and safer driving in conditions with restricted visibility, such as crossings and parking lots. It also helps reduce the risk of a rear collision and can even apply the brakes for an oncoming vehicle in your lane to help mitigate a collision. BLIS™ supports when you have to change lanes in busy traffic by alerting you of vehicles in your left and right blind spots. Cross Traffic Alert facilitates reversing by spotting crossing vehicles and braking if necessary. Rear Collision Warning can alert fast-approaching vehicles if they drive too close and a collision is imminent. If a collision can’t be avoided, the front safety belts will be tensioned to help keep passengers in a correct position. And if a vehicle heads straight towards your car on the wrong side of the road and a collision can’t be avoided, Oncoming Mitigation by Braking can brake your car automatically to help reduce the effects of an impact.

BLIS™ blind spot information with Steer Assist and Cross Traffic Alert

BLIS™ supports when you have to change lanes in busy traffic by alerting you of vehicles in your left and right blind spots and providing steering assistance if needed. Cross Traffic Alert facilitates reversing by spotting crossing vehicles. When a vehicle enters your blind spot or approaches rapidly in a lane on either side of your car, BLIS™ can alert via a light in the left or right door mirror. If you don't react to the warning and start to drift into the path of another vehicle, the Steer Assist function gently assists you back into your lane. The rear-mounted radar sensors continuously monitor your blind spots and a large area behind your car, day or night, and reacts to almost any type of vehicle, including motorcycles. If there's crossing traffic when you reverse out of a parking space, Cross Traffic Alert draws your attention with audible warnings from the left or right rear loudspeaker and by graphics in the centre display. The rear-mounted radar sensors can detect vehicles approaching from the side at a distance of up to 30 meters. In some circumstances, Cross Traffic Alert can also detect approaching cyclists and pedestrians. BLIS™ with Steer Assist and Cross Traffic Alert is part of IntelliSafe Surround.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, these are only supportive functions.

Rear Collision Warning with braking at standstill

Rear Collision Warning keeps you one step ahead of the traffic. By activating all indicator lights at a rapid rate, fast-approaching vehicles are alerted if they drive too close and a collision is imminent. If a collision can’t be avoided, the front safety belts will be tensioned just before the impact to help keep passengers in a correct position. The brakes will also activate if your car is at a standstill to further reduce the risk of whiplash injury. Rear Collision Warning with braking at standstill is part of IntelliSafe Surround.

Preventive safety

Power parking brake

The easily operated power parking brake adds to your driving comfort. Just pull the control upwards to activate the parking brake. It can also be set to engage automatically every time you stop the engine. The parking brake releases automatically as you move off – very convenient, particularly in steep gradients. You can also release it manually by pressing the control downwards. Further adding to your convenience, our automatic hold function keeps the parking brake engaged after you have braked the car to standstill.

Indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (iTPMS)

Our Indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring System instantly alerts you on the driver display if a tyre is low on pressure, helping to maintain safe handling. The system is active from 30 km/h.

Automatically dimmed inner and outer rear view mirrors

The inner rear view mirror and the door mirrors dim simultaneously to help prevent you from being dazzled by the headlights of traffic behind. Once the blinding light ceases, the mirror glass reverts to normal mode automatically.

LED Headlights

LED illumination optimizes your vision without dazzling others. Our signature design LED headlights combine distinctive looks with a supremely long and wide light pattern, automatically flicking between high and low beam when you meet or catch up with another vehicle. They're intelligent too: the high beam shuts off when you enter a city, but if you drive past an illuminated sign it stays on. During daytime, the distinctive T-shaped light guides act as daytime running lights to make your car more conspicuous. And when needed, the dipped headlights are automatically engaged. Contributing to improved fuel economy and lower running costs, the LED lights are extremely energy efficient and last the lifetime of the car without losing any luminance.

LED headlights with Active Bending Lights

Our most advanced LED headlights provide exceptional light, help you see through corners and optimize your vision without dazzling others by constantly adapting the light pattern. As you steer, the headlights turn to illuminate the curve ahead. LED illumination allows you to enjoy high beam with even greater radiation and range. And you can stay on high beam all the time – when you meet or catch up another car, the headlights shade out just as much of your beam as needed to not dazzle the other driver. The greater illuminated area also benefits other road users, such as pedestrians and cyclists. The headlights are intelligent too: the high beam shuts off when you enter a city, but if you drive past an illuminated sign it stays on.

This feature also includes fog lamps that help improve your vision when driving in fog or heavy precipitation. And facilitating low speed manoeuvring and reversing in the dark, they turn up to 15 degrees as you steer to illuminate the area close to the car. They also complement the distinctive design of your Volvo. Included in the Full LED headlights for all model variants except the T8 Twin Engine AWD.

Halogen illumination with level adjuster

Our powerful halogen headlights allow you to enjoy excellent vision in all light conditions. Adding to your convenience when driving in the dark, they automatically shift between high and low beam to optimise your vision without dazzling other drivers. They're intelligent too: the high beam shuts off when you enter a city, but if you drive past an illuminated sign it stays on.

Fog lamps

Optionally available for the LED headlights, these fog lamps help improve your vision when driving in fog or heavy precipitation. They also complement the distinctive design of your Volvo.

Comfort front seats

Optimising style and comfort, our standard-fitted Comfort seats combine the best of renowned Volvo ergonomics with modern Scandinavian design. Providing almost endless adjustment possibilities, you can easily tailor the front seats of your Volvo to fit your body perfectly. The seat height is conveniently adjusted using a power control.

Heated rear seats

Heating of the two outer rear seat cushions and backrests adds to the sense of luxury in your Volvo by offering instant comfort when it's cold. Individual three-level touch controls are easily accessible from the second row.

Ergonomically designed seats

The seats in your Volvo may well be the most important ones in your life – over the lifetime of your car, you will probably spend thousands of hours sitting in them. That’s why we spent so much time developing their ergonomic sculpted design, firm yet comfortable, with supporting side cushions and ergonomic padding. Indeed, our seats are widely accepted as some of the finest in the car world. When we designed our new generation of seats, we put great effort into making the front seat backrests as slim and yet as comfortable as possible. Offering 21st-century luxury in look and feel while allowing more rear legroom, this adds to the cabin's spaciousness and airy feel without compromising on comfort. They have features like stepless lumbar support in the front seats, which allows for the tiniest degrees of adjustment for the best support for each individual. You have two exclusive front seat designs to choose from: Comfort for uncompromised comfort and Contour seats for a more dynamic experience. Add in our wide choice of options like power multi-directional lumbar support, power seat cushion extensions, power side bolsters and massage and ventilation, and you’ll have a seat you’ll never want to leave.

Third seat row

The third row of seats makes it possible to comfortably accommodate up to six passengers whenever the need arises. The two individual seats are generously proportioned to offer class-leading comfort and ample legroom for two passengers up to 170 cm.

Integrated booster cushion

Our integrated booster cushion conveniently folds up to provide safe and comfortable seating for children over 3 years. When not in use, the booster cushion is kept neatly out of sight in the second-row centre seat cushion. The booster cushion puts the child at a good position for the safety belt.

Climate

Heated windscreen washer nozzles

Heating prevents the washer fluid to freeze in the nozzles, ensuring that the windscreen can be washed even in the harshest conditions.

CleanZone

CleanZone lets you and your passengers enjoy clean, healthy cabin air. It monitors incoming air and shuts the cabin's air intakes if harmful substances are detected. A multiﬁlter reduces the levels of dust, pollen, particles and chemical odours. And to prepare a fresh cabin environment on a warm day, the automatic CleanZone function efﬁciently ventilates the cabin when you unlock the car.

Two-zone climate system

Our powerful two-zone climate system adds to excellent air quality and comfort in all seasons and weathers. It automatically maintains the cabin temperature you choose and can be set independently for the driver and front passenger side. Floor air outlets and separate adjustable air vents in the roof pillars ensure a comfortable climate in the rear seat even during long drives. All cabin climate settings are easily controlled using intuitive touch screen controls. An efficient cabin filter helps keep the incoming air free from dust, pollen and other particles.

Four-zone climate system

The four-zone climate system allows the driver, front seat passenger and outer rear seat passengers to create their own individual climate comfort zone. An ionic air refresher gives the interior air an invigorating freshness, even when driving through polluted areas. A cooled glove compartment is included and keeps refreshments cold, adding to comfort during long journeys. Temperature, air distribution and fan speed is intuitively controlled using the centre display with touch screen and the settings are easily accessed for both the driver and the front seat passenger. The passengers on the outer rear seat positions control their individual temperature and fan speed via the elegant touch control panel on the rear end of the tunnel console.

Third row air conditioning

This separate air conditioning enhances comfort in the third row when it's hot. Adjustable air vents in the roof pillars allow the third row passengers to regulate the airflow themselves and enjoy relaxed comfort during long journeys. Complementing the four-zone climate system, the system provides an air temperature that's a mix of the settings for the front seats and second row. The separate air conditioning is activated from the centre touch screen. It can also be activated when the third row seats are folded and you for example have a pet in the load compartment. It also contributes to comfort in cold weather by quickly supplying warmed air after a cold start.

Pre-ventilation and post-climatisation

This function lets you remote start the ventilation fan or fuel-operated heater, providing a comfortable cabin climate upon your arrival. And at standstill after the engine is turned off, you can keep the climate system active to maintain cabin temperature. You activate the pre-ventilation or pre-heating via the Volvo On Call app or directly from the car's centre display without starting the engine if you're waiting in the car. In the T8 Twin Engine, you can also remote start the electrically driven air- conditioning via Volvo On Call to cool down the cabin.

Adjustable rear air vents

Conveniently located in the door pillars, the air vents create a comfortable environment for rear seat passengers. They can also help keeping ice and mist off the rear side windows, which makes for improved vision.

Air-conditioning remote start

Imagine meeting a comfortably climatized cabin every time you get inside your Volvo – even if it's unbearably hot on the outside. With the air-conditioning remote start, you remotely start your car's engine and air conditioning via the Volvo On Call app in your smartphone. This cools down the cabin just in time to allow you and your passengers a comfortable start of your journey. Depending on local environment regulations, the engine running time can be set between 1 and 15 minutes.

Cabin filter

Preventing dust and pollen from entering the cabin via the ventilation system, the cabin filter efficiently contributes to a healthy cabin climate.

Dark tinted rear windows

To make travelling during hot sunny days more comfortable for your rear seat passengers, you can have dark tinted glass in the rear windows and the load compartment windows including the tailgate window. This helps cut glare and keep cabin temperatures down in hot, sunny conditions. For your comfort, it also reduces UV-radiation and adds to the sophisticated look of your Volvo.

Heat-reducing windscreen

This windscreen adds to a comfortable cabin climate by reducing heat radiation and filtering out infrared rays from the sun through the windscreen.

Panoramic roof

Our power-operated panoramic roof adds a superb experience of airiness and light inside your Volvo. For ventilation, the front section opens or tilts at the push of a button. A power-operated sunshade in perforated textile reduces glare on sunny days. The sunshade also maintains the airy feel inside the cabin. And when you enter your car in sunny days, the sunshade closes automatically as soon as the outside temperature reaches 25° C. Dark tinted laminated glass further increases comfort and security. And if you've forgot to close the panoramic roof after you've parked your car, it can be closed from the outside with the remote control.

Fuel-operated parking heater

This heater warms up the cabin and engine to help reduce your cold start emissions and engine wear. Set the time you'd like to enter a warm cabin, or start the heater remotely using the Volvo On Call smartphone app.

Afterrun parking climate

When it's warm outside, this function blows in air from the outside to help maintain a comfortable cabin temperature for up to 15 minutes when the car is parked. Convenient when you for example want to remain in the car with the engine shut off.

Heating parking climate

When it's cold, this function uses residual heat from the engine to help maintain a comfortable cabin temperature for up to 15 minutes when the car is parked. Convenient when you for example want to remain in the car with the engine shut off.

Heated seats, front

Heated front seat cushions, backrests and cushion extensions (if fitted) provide instant comfort those cold mornings – even more if the seats are upholstered in leather. Choose between three heating levels on the centre display with touch screen.

Heated rear seats

Heating of the two outer rear seat cushions and backrests adds to the sense of luxury in your Volvo by offering instant comfort when it's cold. Individual three-level touch controls are easily accessible from the second row.

Heated windscreen

With this feature you conveniently de-ice the windscreen in frosty conditions, just like the rear window and the door mirrors. A push of a button, and you'll soon be on your way. (Can not be combined with the head-up display.)

Heated steering wheel

Need a little help thawing out those cold winter mornings? Just push a button and warm your hands on our heated leather steering wheel.

Note: R-Design steering wheel will be replaced if R-Design is chosen.

Rear door sun curtains

Smoothly integrated in the rear doors, these elegant sun curtains efficiently reduce heat and glare in the rear seat. They're perforated to still allow for good vision when pulled up, and retract smoothly into the rear doors when they're not needed.

Headlight cleaning

Our headlight cleaning uses high-pressure jets to efficiently clean the headlamps from dirt and is activated together with the windscreen washers. When activated, the nozzles pop out of the bumpers. Intelligent sequential cleaning helps save washer fluid.

Storage

Front net pocket

This stylish, elastic net pocket provides convenient storage of maps, tickets, books and other small items – keeping them easily accessible for the front seat passenger as well as for the driver.

Lockable glove compartment

Epitomising Scandinavian design, the roomy glove compartment's lid is an uncluttered surface that you open by pressing a button on the centre console. Illumination makes it easy to find your stuff, while pencil and credit card holders further enhance convenience. You lock the glove compartment together with the doors. A private locking function is included with the alarm. It allows you to keep the glove compartment locked even when you leave your car and remote control to, for example, a valet parking attendant or service technician. And if your Volvo is equipped with the four-zone climate system, the glove compartment is air conditioned to keep your drinks cool.

Front centre armrest and storage

The stylish front centre armrest enhances long distance comfort while emphasizing the exclusive interior design. You have access to smart storage, two cup holders and a power outlet under a roll-top cover. There's also a small, separate storage in front. Folded up, the armrest displays a generous storage compartment with AUX and USB inputs to connect external devices – such as your mobile phone – to the audio system.

Front door bins

During long journeys, the spacious front door bins add to your convenience and comfort. Here you can put the stuff you and the front seat passenger need to have easy at hand. Each bin accommodates a 1.0-litre bottle.

Rear centre armrest with cup holders

For more comfort, the rear centre armrest integrated in the second row of seats can be folded down, revealing two cup holders. The rear centre armrest is available with our leather upholsteries.

Second seat row storage pockets

Conveniently positioned on the backside of the front seats, these net pockets keep newspapers, magazines, napkins, toys and other small items at hand for your passengers in the second row. Each net pocket also stores three 50 cl bottles.

Ashtray and cigarette lighter

The ashtray with cover is fitted where it is easily accessible in one of the centre console cupholder panels. The ashtray is easy to remove and insert and the gentle design make it easy to clean. The cigarette lighter can be mounted in the 12 V sockets in the front and rear sections of the tunnel console.

Driver's support

IntelliSafe Surround

IntelliSafe Surround includes supportive technologies that allow you to enjoy even better lookout around your car and safer driving in conditions with restricted visibility, such as crossings and parking lots. It also helps reduce the risk of a rear collision and can even apply the brakes for an oncoming vehicle in your lane to help mitigate a collision. BLIS™ supports when you have to change lanes in busy traffic by alerting you of vehicles in your left and right blind spots. Cross Traffic Alert facilitates reversing by spotting crossing vehicles and braking if necessary. Rear Collision Warning can alert fast-approaching vehicles if they drive too close and a collision is imminent. If a collision can’t be avoided, the front safety belts will be tensioned to help keep passengers in a correct position. And if a vehicle heads straight towards your car on the wrong side of the road and a collision can’t be avoided, Oncoming Mitigation by Braking can brake your car automatically to help reduce the effects of an impact.

Sensus Connect

Sensus Connect connects you intuitively with the digital world and your Volvo. Enjoy total control provided by our 9-inch centre display with touch screen, steering wheel buttons, voice control, wireless smartphone connection and our well-sounding High Performance audio system. Via your smartphone, you have instant access to internet maps and a host of convenient in-car apps. For example listening to online radio, streaming music, browsing the web and – if you have Sensus navigation – sharing your location, spotting local businesses and finding parking. Your Volvo can even book service when it's time. This also means your Volvo already today is technologically prepared for coming web and cloud-based in-car infotainment functions.

Sensus Navigation

Sensus Navigation provides intuitive guidance and connects seamlessly with our cloud-based services and navigation apps. It's conveniently operated using voice control or touch-screen controls. Road directions are shown in the driver display, centre display and head-up display. You operate the system without taking your attention from traffic – talk naturally to your Volvo, and our voice control carries out your commands. And with the optional head-up display, navigation directions will be shown hovering in front of the windscreen. The system can also be operated by a passenger using the centre display touch screen. You have access to in-car apps that can help you find and pay for parking, share your location with friends or simply find the best coffee in town. To help you avoid congestions, RTTI Real Time Traffic Information gives you a clear view of alternative routes. Free map updates ensure an up-dated navigation experience. Adding the Volvo On Call app, you can send destinations from your smartphone to your car. It also allows you to sync meeting destinations from your personal calendar with the navigation system for guidance.

9-inch centre display with touch screen

Our 9-inch centre display with touch screen allows you to intuitively control the functions of your Volvo and stay connected. The touch screen's large virtual buttons are easy to find and operate, while the display's portrait format facilitates your overview. The virtual buttons are dynamic– when needed, they become bigger and appear on the lower part of the screen to be easy to find and control. You can also rearrange the virtual buttons to suit your personal preferences. To make it comfortable and safe for you to view the display while driving, all information is presented in the upper part of the screen while the lower part is dedicated for the touch controls. Advanced touch screen technology means your finger barely needs to touch the screen to activate or control a function. Some commands you can perform just by sweeping a finger or a hand across the screen – even with gloves on. Contributing to the elegant clean Scandinavian look of the cabin, the full graphical display is glossy at the same time as anti-reflective coating minimises reflections and glare.

Distance Alert

Supplementing the Adaptive Cruise Control, this function helps you keep a proper distance to the vehicle in front and alerts with a warning light in the optional head-up display if you come too close.

Adaptive Cruise Control

Adaptive Cruise Control adapts the speed to help you maintain a safe distance to slower vehicles. Just select desired speed and time gap to the vehicle in front, and enjoy smooth driving from standstill up to 200 km/h. At speeds over 70 km/h, Adaptive Cruise Control also supports overtaking by brieﬂy accelerating your car towards the vehicle in front when you turn the indicator on. It adapts to the ECO and Dynamic drive modes, which helps you save fuel or enjoy a more dynamic driving experience. It’s intelligent too: using map data from the car’s navigation system, Adaptive Cruise Control identifies hills ahead and adapts the speed to help optimise your comfort and safety. Adaptive Cruise Control is part of IntelliSafe Assist.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, this is only a supportive function.

Rear Collision Warning with braking at standstill

Rear Collision Warning keeps you one step ahead of the traffic. By activating all indicator lights at a rapid rate, fast-approaching vehicles are alerted if they drive too close and a collision is imminent. If a collision can’t be avoided, the front safety belts will be tensioned just before the impact to help keep passengers in a correct position. The brakes will also activate if your car is at a standstill to further reduce the risk of whiplash injury. Rear Collision Warning with braking at standstill is part of IntelliSafe Surround.

Pilot Assist

For smoother driving in heavy traffic, Pilot Assist can lend a helping hand by providing gentle steering support to help keep the car centred in its lane and at a set speed. And if there's a vehicle in front of you, it can adapt your speed to help keep a set distance. Active from standstill up to 130 km/h, Pilot Assist steering support can facilitate driving in stop and go traffic as well as driving on the motorway. Adding to your comfort, it uses map data from the navigation system to automatically adapt cruising speed in curves. If you don't keep a hand on the steering wheel, Pilot Assist is automatically switched off and you’ll be alerted by a discreet vibration in the steering wheel. Pilot Assist is part of IntelliSafe Assist.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled as well as for maintaining the correct distance and speed, even when Pilot Assist is being used. Advanced driver assist systems, such as Pilot Assist, are restricted in how much acceleration, braking and steering force they can apply.

Road Sign Information

Road Sign Information helps keep you updated on current trafﬁc restrictions. Using a camera or information from the Sensus navigation system, it alerts you on speed limits, "no overtaking", "no entry" and various types of supplementary signs. The road sign is displayed on the speedometer or in the head-up display. If you exceed the speed limit, Road Sign Information can alert you with a ﬂashing speed limit sign icon. It can also inform you about speed cameras. And if you drive in the wrong direction on a one-way street, you'll be alerted with a no-entry sign icon.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, this is only a supportive function.

Voice control

Voice control listens to and carries out your commands to operate climate, navigation, entertainment and your smartphone. Just talk naturally and keep attention on the traffic – voice control perfectly complements the displays and other controls in your Volvo.

Steering wheel remote control

Adjust the volume, switch radio stations or play the previous or next track without taking your hands off the wheel. With illuminated buttons and an optional scroll-wheel control for intuitive use, just scroll your track lists and push to choose track.

Steering wheel remote controls

With this intuitive control you operate several functions like cruise control, phone, infotainment, trip computer and the driver information menu in the driver display while keeping your hands on the wheel. And to activate voice control, just press a button.

Illuminated vanity mirrors

Fitted in the sun visors for the driver and front seat passenger, lights come on when you open the vanity mirror cover – convenient and practical. Integrated ticket holders further enhance your convenience.

Automatic headlamp levelling

The light beams from the LED headlights are automatically kept at the optimum level to provide you with the best vision without dazzling other road-users, regardless of load. The system will even maintain the headlight level during fast acceleration.

Power door mirrors

The power door mirrors are easily adjusted to suit your preferences. To protect them after you've parked your car, just fold them at the press of a button. They can also fold automatically every time you lock the car. To facilitate parking, you easily tilt either of the door mirrors to show you the kerb when reversing. Or set them to adjust automatically every time you engage reverse gear. Contributing to your safety when it's cold, the door mirrors are electrically heated together with the rear window and therefore kept free from frost.

Power parking brake

The easily operated power parking brake adds to your driving comfort. Just pull the control upwards to activate the parking brake. It can also be set to engage automatically every time you stop the engine. The parking brake releases automatically as you move off – very convenient, particularly in steep gradients. You can also release it manually by pressing the control downwards. Further adding to your convenience, our automatic hold function keeps the parking brake engaged after you have braked the car to standstill.

Power folding outer rear head restraints, second row

With this function you fold the outer second-row head restraints at the touch of a control, further improving your rear vision. When folded, they are designed to obstruct passengers from sitting down without first raising them to their protective position.

Heated windscreen

With this feature you conveniently de-ice the windscreen in frosty conditions, just like the rear window and the door mirrors. A push of a button, and you'll soon be on your way. (Can not be combined with the head-up display.)

Heated windscreen washer nozzles

Heating prevents the washer fluid to freeze in the nozzles, ensuring that the windscreen can be washed even in the harshest conditions.

Speed limiter

The speed limiter helps ensure that you don't exceed a set speed. When you reach the set speed you'll be noticed by a subtle resistance feedback from the accelerator. To override the function, just press down the accelerator.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, this is only a supportive function.

Head-up display

The head-up display presents vital driver information as hovering two metres in front of the car. You can keep your eyes on the trafﬁc at the same time as you see actual speed, speed limits, navigation directions and more. You don't have to change focus or look down, which also gives less strain on the eyes. The brightness of the head-up display adapts automatically to the light conditions, and you can set the system to suit your own personal preferences and link it to the memory function for the power-operated seat.

Park Assist Camera, rear

Facilitating reversing, this rear-view camera shows what’s going on behind your car on the centre display. On-screen guide lines provide extra assistance for smooth parking. A zoomed-in view close to the car is very convenient when hitching a trailer.

360° camera

Our 360° camera shows you a high-resolution bird's eye view of the area surrounding your Volvo – a great help when you reverse or manoeuver in confined areas with impaired visibility. The system uses four cameras: one at each door door mirror, one at the front and one at the rear. By touching the camera images on the centre display, you can get a view from just that camera. The rear camera can also be switched to a zoomed-in view close to the car, particularly convenient when hitching a trailer.

8-inch driver display

Putting you in control, our 8-inch driver display intuitively displays all relevant driver information – including navigation directions, telephone and actual road signs. For your comfort, the brightness of the display adapts automatically according to the exterior light conditions. When the ignition is off, the display has a glossy black, hi-tech look to enhance the exclusive impression every time you enter your Volvo.

12-inch driver display

The 12-inch driver display intuitively shows relevant driver information – including navigation directions, telephone and actual road signs. The display layout adapts to how you use it, and you have four graphic modes to choose from. Right in front of the driver, the display features two large round instruments and one central information display. If you use the navigation system, that display becomes bigger. To make it comfortable for your eyes, the driver display's brightness automatically adjusts to the exterior light.

Interior lighting

The interior lighting enhances the exclusive interior ambience. When you unlock your Volvo, the interior lighting lights up together with foot well lights and mood lights that contributes to a cosy atmosphere when travelling. Front reading lamps are integrated in the roof console.

Interior high level illumination

Our top-of-the-line interior illumination adds a truly sophisticated ambience inside your Volvo when it's dark outside – from the moment you open the door until you arrive at destination. Integrated courtesy lights and a light guide along the interior create a welcoming feel. Discrete multicolour mood lights and illumination of the door pockets, cup holders and interior door handles further contribute to a cosy atmosphere and makes it easy to ﬁnd things in the dark. The rear seat reading lamps are shaded to avoid dazzling the driver. And to facilitate loading of your car in the dark, the tailgate features integrated lighting.

Cruise control

Cruise control adds to comfortable highway driving by maintaining the speed you choose, without you having to keep your foot on the accelerator. It's conveniently operated from the steering wheel.

Trip computer

Keeping you in control and helping you to utilise fuel more efficiently, the trip computer shows essential trip data such as current and average fuel consumption, how far the fuel will take you and average speed.

LED headlights with Active Bending Lights

Our most advanced LED headlights provide exceptional light, help you see through corners and optimize your vision without dazzling others by constantly adapting the light pattern. As you steer, the headlights turn to illuminate the curve ahead. LED illumination allows you to enjoy high beam with even greater radiation and range. And you can stay on high beam all the time – when you meet or catch up another car, the headlights shade out just as much of your beam as needed to not dazzle the other driver. The greater illuminated area also benefits other road users, such as pedestrians and cyclists. The headlights are intelligent too: the high beam shuts off when you enter a city, but if you drive past an illuminated sign it stays on.

This feature also includes fog lamps that help improve your vision when driving in fog or heavy precipitation. And facilitating low speed manoeuvring and reversing in the dark, they turn up to 15 degrees as you steer to illuminate the area close to the car. They also complement the distinctive design of your Volvo. Included in the Full LED headlights for all model variants except the T8 Twin Engine AWD.

Fog lamps

Optionally available for the LED headlights, these fog lamps help improve your vision when driving in fog or heavy precipitation. They also complement the distinctive design of your Volvo.

Slippery road alert

This part of Connected Safety can inform the driver if there is a risk for slippery road ahead. Using multiple variables such as how the car handles, the actual weather and infrastructure information, the car can help foresee slippery conditions and alert the driver to help avoid hazardous situations. And contributing to the enhanced safety for other road users, this information can also be shared to other connected cars via an external ‘cloud based’ database.

Ambient temperature gauge

Helping to keep you updated on weather-dependent road conditions, the ambient temperature gauge monitors the outside temperature and alerts you if there is any risk of black ice.

BLIS™ blind spot information with Steer Assist and Cross Traffic Alert

BLIS™ supports when you have to change lanes in busy traffic by alerting you of vehicles in your left and right blind spots and providing steering assistance if needed. Cross Traffic Alert facilitates reversing by spotting crossing vehicles. When a vehicle enters your blind spot or approaches rapidly in a lane on either side of your car, BLIS™ can alert via a light in the left or right door mirror. If you don't react to the warning and start to drift into the path of another vehicle, the Steer Assist function gently assists you back into your lane. The rear-mounted radar sensors continuously monitor your blind spots and a large area behind your car, day or night, and reacts to almost any type of vehicle, including motorcycles. If there's crossing traffic when you reverse out of a parking space, Cross Traffic Alert draws your attention with audible warnings from the left or right rear loudspeaker and by graphics in the centre display. The rear-mounted radar sensors can detect vehicles approaching from the side at a distance of up to 30 meters. In some circumstances, Cross Traffic Alert can also detect approaching cyclists and pedestrians. BLIS™ with Steer Assist and Cross Traffic Alert is part of IntelliSafe Surround.

Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the car is controlled, these are only supportive functions.

Rear park assist

Rear park assist helps you when reversing into tight spaces with restricted vision. As the car gets closer to an obstacle, you're alerted by a warning sound from the rear loudspeakers and a graphical view in the centre display. The frequency of the warning sound increases the closer you get to the obstacle.

Rear and front park assist

Rear and front park assist helps facilitate manoeuvring into tight spaces with restricted vision. As the car gets closer to an obstacle, you're alerted by a pulsating sound from the rear or front loudspeakers and graphics in the centre display. The frequency of the warning sound increases the closer you get to the obstacle.

Park Assist Pilot

Our convenient Park Assist Pilot makes parking enjoyable. It measures the parking space, and if the space is at least 1.2 times the length of your car it can park by taking over the steering. Park Assist Pilot handles both parallel and perpendicular parking, and can also assist when leaving a tight parallel parking space.

Driver adjustable power steering

Included in the drive mode selector, the adjustable power steering allows you to adapt the speed-dependent power steering characteristics to your own personal preferences. While the steering assistance adjusts automatically depending on your car’s speed, you can choose in the centre display between three levels of overall steering feel and sensitivity – for low, medium or high steering assistance through the entire speed range.

Smartphone integration

Use your smartphone in a smarter way and integrate its familiar interface and functions with the centre display in your Volvo. Make calls, write messages, enjoy music and navigate easily using the touch screen, steering wheel controls or voice control.

Rain sensor

The rain sensor can start the windscreen wipers as soon as it begins to rain or if water splashes onto the windscreen. For your convenience, it also adjusts the speed of the windscreen wipers.

Daytime Running Lights with daylight sensor

The Daytime Running Lights help ensure your visibility in daylight. When light conditions change and the headlights are needed, the headlights activate automatically. They will also be activated if you turn on the windscreen wipers or the rear fog light.

Automatically dimmed inner rear-view mirror

The frameless inner rear-view mirror is a true piece of Scandinavian design. Ending the need to take your hand off the steering wheel and stop headlight beams shining in your eyes, the anti-dazzle function is stepless and returns to normal when it's no longer needed.

Automatically dimmed inner rear-view mirror with compass

Avoid being dazzled with this automatically adjusting frameless rear-view mirror. Adjusts itself to deflect the headlamp beams of the car behind you and when there's no light to dazzle you, it automatically returns to its normal setting.

To assist with navigation, compass direction is continuously displayed in the rear view mirror glass.

Automatically dimmed inner and outer rear view mirrors

The inner rear view mirror and the door mirrors dim simultaneously to help prevent you from being dazzled by the headlights of traffic behind. Once the blinding light ceases, the mirror glass reverts to normal mode automatically.

Power retractable door mirrors

To protect your door mirrors from damage while the car for example is parked or driving through a car wash, press both buttons for the left and right mirror at the same time to fold them flat against the car. They can also be set to fold or unfold automatically every time you lock or unlock the car. And to facilitate parking, the door mirrors can tilt automatically (or by the push of a button) when reversing.

Power windows, front and rear

Everyone inside your Volvo can enjoy the comfort of power windows. Controls are conveniently located in the door armrests. And if you’re travelling with small children, you can lock the rear windows from the driver’s seat.

Speed-dependent power steering

Our speed-dependent steering provides exactly the right level of power assistance to maximise comfort and steering response: firmer steering at highway speeds, lighter in slow traffic. The steering feel can also be tailored with the drive mode control.

Indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (iTPMS)

Our Indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring System instantly alerts you on the driver display if a tyre is low on pressure, helping to maintain safe handling. The system is active from 30 km/h.

Headlamp level adjuster

The headlamp level adjuster allows the driver to lower or raise the angle of the headlight beam by turning a dial on the instrument panel. This is particularly useful when driving at night with a full load. Only applies to halogen headlamps; LED headlights adjust automatically.

Wiper blades with integrated washers

These innovative wiper blades enhance your visibility at all speeds by distributing washer fluid evenly and instantly over the windscreen – with no visual disturbance and 50% less washer fluid. Adding heated nozzles, they help ensure visibility in the harshest conditions.

Communication

Bluetooth® connection

Adding to your convenience and in-car entertainment, the Bluetooth® connection allows you to wirelessly connect your smartphone with your Volvo. Make or answer calls with both hands on the steering wheel, and enjoy audio streaming via the car's audio system.

Start/Stop technology

The Start/Stop function further reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions in the city. When you stop at a traffic light or in a traffic queue, the engine shuts off temporarily to eliminate idling and restarts instantly when you resume driving.

All-wheel Drive (AWD)

Our AWD technology with Instant Traction™ gives you an edge by increasing driving stability and traction – on all road surfaces and in all weathers. As conditions change, wheels with the best grip get the most power to optimise your drive. Under normal conditions practically all the power is distributed to the front wheels to minimise fuel consumption without compromising on stability. And when needed, up to 50% of the engine's power can be distributed to the rear wheels. At standstill, full all-wheel drive is always engaged to prepare for maximum traction. This also facilitates take-off in slippery conditions or if you for example pull a boat trailer up a ramp.

Hill Start Assist

Hill Start Assist allows you to start uphill or downhill without the car moving while you move your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator. It keeps the brakes applied a short period after you've released the brake pedal.

Hill Descent Control

Hill Descent Control offers controlled descents on steep, rough and slippery roads. When activated, it helps you descend smoothly from 8 to 40 km/h using engine braking or, if needed, by braking each wheel individually – you just have to steer. You can brake anytime or, if you prefer, accelerate to adapt the speed. The smooth accelerator characteristics of Hill Descent Control also makes it easier to move off when towing a heavy trailer or a boat on a trailer up a ramp. It also works in reverse gear.

Chassis & Steering

Touring Chassis

The chassis of your Volvo is designed to give you a smooth ride and sharp handling, wherever your adventures take you. You're in command, while the high ground clearance and long suspension travel further enhance your comfort and all-road capacity.

The rear suspension in exclusive integral link design and a transverse light-weight leaf spring in composite material ensures superior comfort and excellent handling with neutrally balanced cornering characteristics.

Electronic Stability Control, ESC

Adding to your control, Electronic Stability Control helps optimise traction and minimize the risk of skids at all speeds in all conditions. And by counteracting understeer and oversteer, it also contributes to safer and more fun cornering characteristics. Electronic Stability Control can detect a potential skid and take action to prevent it by reducing engine power and/or braking the appropriate wheels. It also senses body roll movement to reduce the risk of losing traction in emergency manoeuvres and sharp corners. And when you brake on surfaces with different friction on one side of the car, the car automatically applies slight counter-steering to help you maintain stability. Adding to more dynamic driving characteristics, our Dynamic Torque Vectoring utilises the car's stability reserves to make it respond exceptionally quick and precise to your steering inputs. And our Corner Traction Control with torque vectoring gives more traction during high-speed cornering, less understeer and more powerful acceleration. It works by braking the inside driven wheel if it starts to lose its grip through a corner, while sending the power to the outer wheel instead. Understeer Control Logic is another innovative technology that further helps minimise understeer tendencies for more stable and dynamic cornering. And if you’re in the mood to take more control when driving dynamically, select Sport Mode to cut out the engine power reducing function and allow a controlled amount of rear wheel slip.

Driver adjustable power steering

Included in the drive mode selector, the adjustable power steering allows you to adapt the speed-dependent power steering characteristics to your own personal preferences. While the steering assistance adjusts automatically depending on your car’s speed, you can choose in the centre display between three levels of overall steering feel and sensitivity – for low, medium or high steering assistance through the entire speed range.

Speed-dependent power steering

Our speed-dependent steering provides exactly the right level of power assistance to maximise comfort and steering response: firmer steering at highway speeds, lighter in slow traffic. The steering feel can also be tailored with the drive mode control.

Drive modes

Our drive mode control allows you to instantly adapt the powertrain and steering characteristics to your preferences and driving conditions. Comfort, Eco, Dynamic or Off road – switch between the modes with the elegant roller control in the centre console. Comfort mode optimises comfort, while Eco mode calibrates the powertrain and climate system for lowest possible fuel consumption.
