Wherever you go in your Volvo, you and your passengers are surrounded by a strong protective steel cage. And that it’s reinforced with one of the strongest steel types available – hot formed boron steel. In a collision, the front and rear crumple zones help to dissipate the energy of the crash to reduce the impact on those inside the car, while in a side-on impact, our SIPS™ side impact protection system distributes the crash force across a large portion of the car’s body to further reduce your risk of injury. And to further help protect passengers, there is a steel cross-member under the dashboard.

In a frontal offset or side-on collision, the Inflatable Curtain helps protect the heads of both front and rear passengers who are sitting on the sides. It also stays inflated for several seconds to provide prolonged protection in the event of secondary impacts. And in Volvos equipped with integrated booster seats, the Inflatable Curtain has been extended downward to improve head protection for smaller or younger children.

The unique geometry of the frontal structure and longitudinal steel struts in the doors help disperse crash energy away from the front to the rear of the car, reducing impact effects on driver and passengers. And further adding to your protection, the compact, transversely mounted engine installation allows maximum space for deformation and energy dispersion.

Safety belts are the first line of defence when it comes to help protecting people during a crash. That’s why we introduced them in 1959. We also invented the audible and visual safety belt reminder and today, everybody in the car is reminded to fasten their safety belts before moving off. And in the information display on the instrument panel, you can check that the rear seat passengers have all fastened their safety belts and that nobody unfastens them during the trip. Pretensioners activate to tighten the belts within fractions of a second in the event of a collision. The front seat safety belts then release a little so that the driver and passenger are cushioned by the airbags in a controlled fashion.

Your Volvo can sense an impending collision and prepare the car's restraint systems to help provide optimal protection. Using advanced sensors, the car scans the road ahead and if the system spots an obstacle that could result in a collision, it prepares the airbags and safety belts for the expected crash force. This together with a robust body structure gives the best protection in a low or medium-severe frontal collision.

Adding to a relaxed driving experience in for example slow-moving city traffic, our standard-fitted City Safety technology looks out for standstill or slower vehicles ahead and brakes automatically if needed to help you avoid or mitigate a collision. This laser-based technology can sense an impending collision at speeds from 4 km/h up to 50km/h, day and night. In the first instance, City Safety prepares the brakes so that they respond faster when you press the pedal. And if you fail to brake, City Safety will apply the brakes for you and switch off the throttle to lessen the effects of a collision. Even better, if the difference in speed between your car and the one in front is less than 15km/h, City Safety can prevent a collision from happening in the first place. City Safety is activated as soon as you start your car, and ready to assist you in such an eventuality. City Safety is just one element of our complete approach to car safety. We call it IntelliSafe, and it’s a programme targeted at fulfilling our aim to create cars that will help you avoid collisions altogether – it includes such features as Lane Keeping Aid, Collision Warning with full auto brake, BLIS™, Adaptive Cruise Control, Park Assist and much more.

To help reduce the effects from an impact on unprotected road-users, the front of the vehicle is gently rounded, the headlamps are integrated flush with the body, and the bonnet is energy-absorbing to act as a crumple zone.

In an emergency situation, the large anti-lock ventilated disc brakes of your Volvo will make all the difference. And if you find yourself travelling down a mountain road with the need to brake often and hard, you’ll welcome our brakes’ resistance to fading. But since there is always a risk of fade, your Volvo is prepared for this, too, with Fading Brake Support. This system gradually builds hydraulic brake pressure so that you always have reassuring pedal feel. But what if you find yourself having to brake in an emergency, and perhaps not applying the necessary pressure to the pedal? Well, we’ve developed Hydraulic Brake Assist, which ensures that maximum braking pressure is applied hydraulically during a panic stop. Likewise, if you suddenly lift off the accelerator or sensors detect an obstacle in front of the car, Ready Alert Brakes instantly move the brake pads closer to the brake discs to reduce the braking distance. And Electronic Brake Distribution ensures that the right amount of braking goes to the front and rear of the your Volvo depending on where the load in the car is distributed and what the road conditions are.

One of the most vital safety advances of the past decade, Electronic Stability Control helps minimize the risk of wheel spin and skids at all speeds in all conditions. And helping to minimize understeer at all speeds, it also contributes to safer and more fun cornering characteristics. The system looks at factors like what direction the car is travelling, how fast the wheels are rotating and how much steering lock is applied. Using all this information, 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 can also prevent the wheels from locking during engine braking or when changing to a lower gear in slippery conditions, using Engine Drag Control. To further reduce the risk of losing traction in emergency manoeuvres and corner with high lateral forces, the function Advanced Stability Control senses the car's roll movement and lateral acceleration. But Automatic Stability Control is also about giving you a rewarding driving experience, too, so when you’re cornering enthusiastically the car will feel even more dynamically stable. Another feature that means you’ll experience sharper turn-in to corners, less understeer, more powerful acceleration and more fun behind the wheel is our Corner Traction Control with torque vectoring. 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. Our new 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 for a bit of performance driving, Electronic Stability Control has a Sport Mode. It cuts out the engine power reducing function and allows a controlled amount of rear wheel slip, as long as it senses that the driver is using the steering wheel and accelerator in a dynamic way and as long as it doesn’t go too far, in which case it will return to the normal Electronic Stability Control-function.

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.

To help protect passengers in a rollover situation, Our Roll-Over Protection System is activated by a sensor that monitors the vehicle’s lean angle. In the event of a rollover the safety belt pre-tensioners are activated for every seat to help keep passengers more securely in place. At the same time, the Inflatable Curtain deploys to help protect against secondary impacts.

We developed our unique SIPS™ side impact protection system to help protect where you and your passengers are most exposed in the event of a side-collision. The steel framework of the car – including the front seat frames – is designed and reinforced to help displace the impact of a side-collision away from the occupants to other parts of the car body and help prevent intrusion into the cabin. The extremely strong side structure contains ultra-high strength steel and softer grades of steel to help withstand a severe side impact – even with a larger vehicle. The Inflatable Curtain for all the outboard occupants and the front seat side airbags interact with the SIPS™ to help provide further protection. In the rear, SIPS™ and the Inflatable Curtain help protect the passengers in the outer rear seats including the third row.

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.

In a collision, our restraint technologies interact to help reduce the impact. The safety belts with pre-tensioners activate within fractions of a second in the event of a collision or rollover and tighten the belt to help keep the occupants restrained. The front seat safety belts then release a little so that the driver and passenger are cushioned by the airbags in a controlled manner. Helping to optimise protection, the dual-stage airbags adapt the level of inflation depending on the force of the collision. The driver’s airbag also interacts with the deformation of the collapsible steering column. Side airbags in the front seats help reduce the risk of serious injuries in a side collision. In a collision or rollover, the Inflatable Curtain helps protect the heads of both front and rear outboard occupants. It also stays inflated for several seconds to provide prolonged protection for subsequent impacts.

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

In a frontal collision, the driver and passenger airbags help protect your head, face and chest. But because no two collisions are the same, the airbags adapt the level of inflation depending on the force of the impact. The driver’s airbag also interacts with the deformation of the collapsible steering column. And if the impact is low enough that the airbags aren’t needed, the system will just deploy safety belt pre-tensioners if necessary.

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. It’s designed to obstruct taller passengers from sitting down without raising the restraint to its upright position. The outer head restraints can fold forward at the press of a button (optional) to further improve rear vision. In the folded position, they too are designed to obstruct passengers from sitting down without raising the restraints to their upright position.

Our advanced WHIPS™ whiplash injury protection system incorporates the complete backrests and head restraints to help protect the driver and front seat passenger from whiplash injury if the car is hit from behind. During a rear impact, the WHIPS™ system moves the entire seatback with the passenger or driver while the head restraint remains rigid to support the neck. A unique Volvo design.

To help prevent that passengers slide under and out of their safety belts in the event of a big impact, the seats feature anti-submarining guards which are specially shaped panels angled upwards at the forward edge inside the seats.

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

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.

The first-aid kit is conveniently carried in the load compartment and contains a variety of bandages. The contents are stored in different compartments to make it easier to find what you need in an emergency.

Driver Alert Control is a nice and thoughtful way to alert you if your driving behaviour shows signs of distraction or tiredness. Active at speeds over 65km/h, a camera looks at the road ahead while Driver Alert Control checks on your steering inputs to see how they compare to your regular driving style. If it senses that you’re driving more erratically, or there are signs that you’re drowsy or distracted, it’ll give you an audible warning and a message on the instrument panel suggesting you take a break.

With Road Sign Information you don't have to miss important road signs. A forward camera detects speed limit, "no overtaking", "no entry" and various types of supplementary signs. The actual sign is then displayed on the centre dial on the driver display – to help keep you constantly alert on current restrictions. If you want, Road Sign Information can also alert you with a visual warning if you exceed the speed limit, by flashing gently three times. This is easily set in the centre console menu.

BLIS™ is a Volvo innovation that helps alert you if a vehicle enters your blind spot or approaches fast from behind. The rear-mounted radar sensors cover a large area behind the car and work in various sorts of weather and light conditions, day or night. As a vehicle enters your blind spot or approaches rapidly from behind, this function can alert you via a warning light in the front door posts – left and right. Together with the door mirrors, which include a wide-angle mirror on the driver side, this helps you assess the feasibility of a lane change. BLIS™ is activated once the car exceeds 12 km/h and reacts to almost any type of vehicle, including motorcycles. Reversing out of a parking space or anywhere else with restricted vision at the sides can be a tricky business. To make these manoeuvres easier and less stressful our Cross Traffic Alert uses the rear radar sensors to alert you of crossing traffic from the sides. You'll be alerted by an audible warning from the left or right rear loudspeaker and by a graphic warning in the centre display. Alerting for approaching vehicles as well as for pedestrians and cyclists, Cross Traffic Alert is especially helpful in tight and crowded areas where the side view might be limited.

If you should begin to veer off-course, our Lane Keeping Aid technology can alert you or, if necessary, intervene with gentle steering support to help you stay in the lane. This function uses an advanced high resolution camera to register the lane markings and help monitor the car’s position on the road. If you get close to a lane marking, the system will gently steer the car back to help keep the car in the lane. And should you nevertheless unintentionally cross the lane marking you'll be alerted by haptic vibrations in the steering wheel or a warning sound. When you intentionally cross a lane marker using the turn indicators, Lane Keeping Aid is not activated. The system operates at speeds between 65 km/h and 200 km/h.

Your Volvo can alert you and intervene automatically in case of an imminent collision with a vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist in front of you. Active at speeds above 4 km/h, our collision avoidance technology can give you audible and visible warnings if you’re too close to a vehicle in front or if there are pedestrians or cyclists in your path. If you don’t react and a collision is imminent, full auto-braking is engaged to help you avoid or mitigate an impact. Within a range of 150 metres, a radar sensor behind the grille continuously monitors the distance to the vehicle driving in front of you and a digital camera behind the windscreen determines what objects are in front of you. During daylight it can also detect standing or moving pedestrians or cyclists travelling in the same direction. If a pedestrian or a cyclist unexpectedly swerves out in front of your car or if a vehicle suddenly brakes (or is stationary) and Collision Warning senses that a collision is likely to happen, it will prompt you to act with a flashing warning light on the windscreen along with an audible alarm. Moreover, this technology supports driver-initiated braking by pre-charging the brakes to minimise the braking distance. If you don’t react to the warning and a collision is imminent, the car immediately brakes with full braking force.

Helping you to maintain your preset gap to vehicles in front at all speeds up to 200 km/h, the Adaptive Cruise Control is a supportive partner for a more relaxed driving experience on any journey. In slow moving city traffic, the Adaptive Cruise Control stop and go function* with ECO mode automatically adapts your speed to the vehicle in front while helping you save fuel by maintaining smoother progress with less need for surges of acceleration. From standstill, a press of a button or the accelerator is all it takes to make your car smoothly tail the vehicle in front. At speeds over 30 km/h, just select the desired speed and the minimum time gap to the vehicle in front. When the radar sensor detects a slower vehicle in front, the speed automatically adapts to that vehicle. And when the road is clear, the car resumes the selected speed. If Adaptive Cruise Control is disengaged and a vehicle in front comes too close, the distance alert function activates a warning light in the lower section of the windscreen to help you keep a proper distance. Whenever you want, you can also select conventional cruise control by pressing the Adaptive Cruise Control button for a few seconds.

*The Queue Assist and stop and go function from 0 to 30 km/h requires Geartronic™ automatic transmission.

Journeys after dark have become a lot more enjoyable – and safer – thanks to our Active High Beam, available as an option. With this system, you don’t need to keep flicking between dipped and full beam, which is not only annoying – according to several studies, it’s also a major cause of night-time accidents. Employing camera technology, AHB recognises the headlight beam of on-coming vehicles and automatically shifts between high and low beam to optimise your vision without dazzling other drivers. And because the system is intelligent, the high beam shuts off when you enter a city, but if you drive past an illuminated sign – say a filling station or supermarket – it stays on so you can see what’s coming up. This means you benefit from safety as well as convenience.

Statistics show that in half of all rear-end collisions the driver at fault doesn’t brake at all. Active at speeds above 4 km/h, our collision avoidance technology can give you audible and visible warnings if you’re too close to a vehicle in front or if there are pedestrians or cyclists in your path. If you don’t react and a collision is imminent, full auto-braking is engaged to help you avoid or mitigate an impact. Within a range of 150 metres, a radar sensor behind the grille continuously monitors the distance to the vehicle driving in front of you and a digital camera behind the windscreen determines what objects are in front of you. During daylight it can also detect standing or moving pedestrians or cyclists. If a pedestrian or a cyclist unexpectedly swerves out in front of your car or if a vehicle suddenly brakes (or is stationary) and Collision Warning senses that a collision is likely to happen, it will prompt you to act with a flashing warning light on the windscreen along with an audible alarm. Moreover, this technology supports driver-initiated braking by pre-charging the brakes to reduce the braking distance. If you don’t react to the warning and a collision is imminent, the car immediately brakes with full braking force.

It can happen so easily; you’re on a long motorway trip, or momentarily distracted and you wander briefly out of your lane. This puts you in danger of collision, or of simply going off the road on your own. It doesn’t bear thinking about, but your Volvo can help with the Lane Departure Warning system. When you’re driving over 65km/h, a camera looks at the lane markings and can tell if you wander out of your lane. If you do, it will give you an audible warning but if you use indicators to signal a lane change, LDW will stay silent.

In the event of an emergency manoeuvre, our Roll Stability Control (RSC) can step in to help prevent the vehicle from rolling over. It features a gyroscopic sensor that registers the vehicle’s lean angle and rollover risk. If required, the Roll Stability Control will cut engine power or brake one or more of the wheels just enough to reduce the centrifugal force and help regain balance.

With our Tyre Pressure Monitoring System you'll be instantly alerted if one of your tyres is low on pressure. Active at 30 km/h or more, it helps increase your safety as well as ensuring maintained comfort and handling characteristics. The system uses sensors mounted in each tyre valve.

At speeds of up to 30 km/h, the optional Cornering Light illuminates the area in which you’re turning at up to 15 degrees around the car for safer manoeuvring – for instance if you’re turning into a small road or driving through a narrow gateway at night.

One of the most annoying things about night driving is the blinding glare from other cars’ headlights. Our generously dimensioned door mirrors are made of chromatic glass that automatically dims to diminish glare from traffic behind you. The mirrors use an internal sensor to monitor light conditions and recognise glare from headlights. When this is detected, the inner and outer rear view mirrors will darken simultaneously to the exact degree necessary. Once the source of the glare disappears, the glass returns to its normal state automatically. Other functions include an optional built-in compass in the inner rear view mirror and ground lighting as well as indicators embedded in the sides of the outer mirrors.

You know when you’re driving down a winding country road at night and the headlights don’t quite show you everything coming up around the next bend? We wondered, what if your headlights could swivel like eyes, so your car could help you see around corners? So we developed Active Bending Lights – with motorised lamps that can turn up to 15 degrees in either direction – that follow the way you steer. And by using extra bright Dual Xenon lights (low beam and high beam), you get a 90 per cent boost to your vision round bends at night. This means you can gain a further 45 metres for braking. You can also experience highly effective low-beam illumination on narrow, winding roads and extremely powerful high beams on the motorway – a sensor disengages the adaptive function during daylight to reduce wear. It’s a very clever system, too – depending on the load in the car, the headlights self-adjust to maintain the correct angle to the road, even during hard acceleration or braking.

Integrated front and rear side-marker lamps help alert other drivers to your car’s presence.

To provide far better visibility in the rain, your Volvo’s front side windows help repel water as you drive. The hydrophobic surface treatment turns water into small drops that will be blown away by the force of the wind. This also gives you the benefit of less ice or frost in winter conditions. This option is offered in combination with laminated windows.

To help protect passengers in an oncoming car with bumpers that are lower, there's a cross member integrated low down in the front structure. In an impact, this cross member is designed to help activate the other car’s own crumple zones and other safety features to help reduce the risk of injury. It also works in a side impact with a smaller car.

We created the Volvo On Call smartphone app to make your everyday life a little less complicated. This app gives you a host of clever solutions that allow you to access and control your Volvo remotely from your smartphone, iPad or a wearable device such as Apple Watch, Android Wear and Microsoft Band 2. The Volvo On Call app can also be used on a Windows 10 based PC or tablet. It's even compatible with Flic buttons that allow you to connect single tasks, like pre-heating your car, to separate wireless buttons you can keep anywhere you want. Whenever you want, you can check the remaining distance to empty tank, the fuel level, average fuel consumption, the outdoor temperature at your car, if the doors are locked and much more. And if you've left the car unlocked, you will be reminded and can lock it (or unlock it) remotely just using your smartphone. You can conveniently create your own driving journals and download data to Excel. You can also see your car's location on a map and make it honk and flash if you need to locate it in a huge parking lot. Further facilitating your travel planning, you can even send a destination directly to the Sensus Navigation system in your car. It can also connect with your personal calendar and allow you to send meeting appointment destinations to the navigation system for guidance. Another everyday luxury you will enjoy with Volvo On Call, is the possibility to control the climate in your car using your smartphone. To warm up or cool down the cabin before travelling, you can remotely start the engine and control the climate system. And if your car is equipped with a parking heater, you can start the heater remotely via your smartphone for a comfortable climate without using the engine. Volvo On Call also enables you to create a strong, stable internet connection via the roof antenna. You simply turn your Volvo into a Wi-Fi hotspot – anybody that shares your ride can easily connect his or her smartphone, laptop or tablet to the internet. And whether you've got a flat tire, have a breakdown or get into an accident, Volvo On Call is there to send assistance anywhere. Push the Volvo On Call button in your car (or use your smartphone app) to speak to an operator who can dispatch assistance to your GPS location. Or in an emergency that calls for help right away, simply press the SOS button. In an accident that activates the car's airbags or safety belt pre-tensioners or if you have run into a large animal, your Volvo alerts a trained operator to contact the car and send emergency service. Volvo On Call can also alert you to an attempted break-in. And if the car is stolen, the Volvo On Call operator can use the GPS in your Volvo to track it.

With our integrated child booster cushions you'll easily provide safe and comfortable seating for children that have grown out of the conventional child seat. The children will be seated at the correct height for the safety belts to help provide optimum protection, while they can enjoy a better view during the ride. Our integrated child booster cushion features a choice of two heights, so smaller children can sit higher for a better view out. And that adjustable height also means that the safety belts are always positioned to work effectively. That, and the safety belt load limiter, which is adapted to a child with this option, will reduce the strain on a child’s neck and chest during an impact. In a side impact, the booster seat-equipped Volvo benefits from an Inflatable Curtain that has been extended downward to improve head protection for smaller, or younger children. And when you don’t need them, the booster seats disappear into the seat cushions.

The passenger airbag is designed to help protect an adult in a frontal collision in case of collision. But if a rearward-facing child seat is positioned in the front passenger seat, the airbag must first be disengaged to avoid the risk of serious injury. The airbag cut-off switch is positioned on the passenger end of the dashboard and can only be accessed with the door open. When the airbag is switched off, you’re notified by a message on the roof console display.

The power child lock enables you to conveniently lock the rear doors and rear power windows from the driver’s seat and prevent them from being opened from the inside.

The alarm is connected to the doors, bonnet, boot and ignition. It also reacts to movement inside the car or the breaking of a window. A level sensor can be added to deter thieves from jacking up the car to steal your wheels or tow it away.

In an emergency, you can use the panic button on the remote control to attract attention. Press and hold the button for at least 3 seconds or press it twice to activate the hazard lights and the horn.

A touch of a button on the remote control or the optional Personal Car Communicator unlocks the doors and bootlid. Use the personal settings menu to decide if the remote unlocks the driver’s door first, or all doors at the same time. You can also close or open all windows (including the sunroof if you have one) and unlock the boot separately.

To further enhance your personal security, the doors can be set in the information menu to automatically lock the moment you drive away. Alternatively, lock them swiftly from the front seats using the lock button. Lock buttons are also available for the rear seat passengers.

This function allows you to close all windows and lock the car all at once by pressing the button on the remote control or the Personal Car Communicator for two seconds. Alternatively, press the button for two seconds to unlock the car and open all the windows.

Not only will the door locks withstand most break-in attempts, the electronic immobiliser makes it impossible to start the car without the right remote control. And even if a would-be thief manages to get into the car via a window, the deadlock system makes it impossible to open the doors from the inside.

Under the load compartment floor you’ve got an extra space for storage. This area is easy to access via a hinged floor hatch. In addition the tailgate – just by the function of its elegant design – overlaps and locks the hatch when it's closed, preventing a smash-and-grab burglary.

To further foil smash-and-grab burglaries, the closed tailgate – by virtue of its design – overlaps and seals the compartment hidden under the cargo floor. And when you use the private locking function, this area is also rendered inaccessible to others, such as valet car park attendants.

PCC is an advanced remote control that combines ‘keyless drive’ with two-way communication with your Volvo. Keep the PCC with you and the car unlocks automatically as you pull the door handle. Start the engine by pressing a button on the dash, and when you park, lock your car by pressing a button in the door handle. Later in the day, if you’re wondering whether you’ve locked your car, the PCC can tell you by displaying the status that the car was last left in, wherever you are in the world. When you are approaching your car (within a distance of approximately 100 m), the PCC can give you a warning if the car’s alarm has been activated, and an extra visible warning if it’s been activated within the last five minutes. Keep the car key in your pocket or handbag. Using keyless drive technology you can unlock the doors and drive away without using the car key. To start the engine, just turn the starter control in the instrument panel.

Activated with the remote control or the Personal Car Communicator, Approach Lighting provides a warm reception on a dark night. This consists of parking lights, interior lights and ground lighting too, if fitted. Home Safe Lighting is activated with the headlight stalk as you leave the car. This feature provides a low beam from the headlight to accompany you to your door, whether you’re returning home or are out on the road.

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. The integrated ground lighting is activated by the approach light button on your remote control, enhancing security as you go to and from your car at night. And to facilitate parking, the door mirrors can tilt automatically (or by the push of a button) when reversing.

Extremely tough laminated glass in the side windows and the rear window turns an attempted smash-and-grab into a total waste of time for the would-be thief. It also contributes to a quiet cabin. Additionally, this option includes water-repellent glass in the front side windows for improved visibility in wet weather.

These provide a simple, effective way of reducing the risk of aluminium wheels being stolen. The wheel lock features one uniquely coded socket enabling only you or your dealer technician to remove the wheels.

Because we Scandinavians understand cold weather better than most, few cars are better equipped to deal with freezing temperatures than your Volvo. In fact, thanks to our heating systems, you may now positively look forward to your drive when the mercury drops. Take our heated front seats with heating in the seat cushions including the lower backrest – since they work particularly quickly, your car will be just as comfortable as your living room in no time at all, with individual three levels touch controls for the driver and front seat passenger. Back seat passengers are catered for as well, with the optional heated rear seats for the two outer seating positions, equally featuring individual three-level controls.

Adding individual electrical heating on the rear seat's outer positions, your passengers in the rear will enjoy the ride even when it's freezing cold. Featuring heating in the seat cushions and the lower backrest, this function is conveniently controlled from the rear seat using individual three-level controls.

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 on 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. 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. Add in our wide choice of upholstery materials and designs, and you’ll have a seat you’ll never want to leave.

Our new sport seats not only look fantastic, they also give you great side support all the way from your thighs to your shoulders – and in typical Volvo fashion you’ll arrive feeling fresh, even after hours of driving.

Good lighting is the key to creating the right atmosphere. This is as true in your car as it is in your home. Our optional Ambient Light package illuminates any features you might need to find at night. A sophisticated white glow ensures you’ll never have to fumble in the dark for cupholders or root around blindly in the door pockets. “The overall effect is very warm and cosy, like being in a warm Swedish house on a cold night,” say our designers. The colour theme corresponds beautifully with the backlit white controls in the dash and elsewhere in the car. Even the optional compass in your rear view mirror lights up in the same elegant white tone.

There’s no such thing as a standard-sized Volvo owner. That’s why we’ve taken such care to design seats that can be manually adjusted to fit a huge range of physiques. You can, for example, change the height and the angle of the seat cushion to suit you perfectly and give full under-thigh support, whatever your shape or size. This great adjustability is also optionally available for the passenger seat. To make sure the small of your back is comfortably supported, the lumbar support can be adjusted on each front seat. And the seats slide back and forth over such a large range that even the tallest or shortest drivers will find their perfect driving position.

The memory function of the power operated driver seat and door mirrors helps ensure your Volvo is perfectly adjusted to your personal preferences every time you enter the car. Every time you use your remote control for the central locking, the driver seat and door mirrors will automatically adjust to your preferences (you get two remote controls with your Volvo and can order up to four more). Each remote control triggers the corresponding setting from the last time that particular remote control was used. Furthermore, you can save up to three different seat and door mirror settings by using the buttons on the seat. And an electrically adjustable passenger seat is also optionally available.

Adding to the comfort and convenience for your front passenger, the power operated front passenger seat cushion and backrest are easily adjusted using the intuitive controls placed on the outside of the seat cushions.

For more comfort, the rear centre armrest can be folded down, revealing cupholders and clever storage.

Inspired by racing seats, the R-Design seats feature seating surfaces in high-friction durable nubuck textile. Together with the seat's side support, this keeps you firmly in place even during the high lateral g-forces that often comes with inspired driving. Alternatively, the seating surfaces are in genuine nappa leather that have a genuine natural feel that is soft to the touch and adds a luxurious touch to the interior. Contrasting stitching enhances the sculpted seat design. And for the uncompromised sporty touch, sections of the seats are upholstered in perforated leather that also are echoed in the handbrake lever, gearshift gaiter and front centre armrest.

Conveniently positioned on the side of the windscreen, this nifty ticket holder will keep your parking tickets clearly visible and in place.

To prepare a fresh environment in your new Volvo even on a warm day, the automatic CleanZone function initiates a ventilation cycle, which is triggered when you unlock the car with your remote control. This feature is active on days when it is at least 10°C outside. The automatic CleanZone function also does a great job of venting out allergy and asthma inducing substances, especially gases and smells from new materials in your new car. This automatic function is gradually reduced during the first years of usage to finally be terminated.

Our IAQS technology continuously monitors incoming air and will, if necessary, temporarily close external air vents to shut out carbon monoxide, ground-level ozone and nitrogen dioxide. When the air vents are opened, an active carbon filter protects the passengers from other harmful gases and unpleasant odours. This helps to ensure that the air you breathe in the car is clean, often cleaner than that outside when driving in heavy city traffic and tunnels.

Electronic Climate Control (ECC) maintains the cabin temperature you choose and can be set independently for the driver and front passenger. Further contributing to your health and comfort, the system’s humidity sensor helps ensure cabin air has an appropriate level of humidity in relation to the outside climate.

Not only does this aircon system keep the cabin cool, its built-in filter also prevents dust, pollen and exhaust particles entering the cabin through the ventilation system. The adjustable ventilation and heating vents in the rear means extra comfort if you're in the back - as well as helping keep ice and mist off the rear side windows.

Air vents that are conveniently located in the door pillars at face level create a comfortable environment for rear seat passengers. They also keep ice and mist off the rear side windows, which makes for a safer journey.

Preventing dust and pollen from entering the cabin via the ventilation system, the cabin filter is a real benefit to driver and passengers, especially those prone to hay fever or other allergies.

The extra dark tinted glass for the rear windows add to the sophisticated look of your Volvo and help cut glare and keep cabin temperatures down in hot, sunny conditions.

For a more comfortable interior climate, this windscreen reduces heat radiation from the sun through the windscreen and the temperature inside the car by filtering out the sun’s heat-generating invisible infrared rays.

This exclusive panoramic roof will further enhance the experience of air and light for everyone inside the Volvo XC60. The front section can be opened at the push of a button, either by sliding it over the rear part, or by tilting it in the rear end. To help maintain climate comfort on sunny days, there's a power operated roller curtain. Dark tinted laminated glass increases comfort and security. It also helps protect from UV radiation. For safety reasons, the design of the panoramic roof is optimised and the two-piece glass is laminated.

A fuel-operated parking heater makes your car easier to start, warms up the cabin and helps reduce the environmental impact – a cold engine produces far more harmful emissions than a warm one, and will increase engine wear. You can start the heater directly via the centre display, or set the time you’d like to enter your warm and defrosted car. With a remote starter you can activate the heater without going out to the car. And if your car is equipped with Volvo On Call, you can start the heater using your smartphone to pre-heat your engine or warm up the cabin, without starting the engine.

Because we Scandinavians understand cold weather better than most, few cars are better equipped to deal with freezing temperatures than your Volvo. In fact, thanks to our heating systems, you may now positively look forward to your drive when the mercury drops. Take our heated front seats with heating in the seat cushions including the lower backrest – since they work particularly quickly, your car will be just as comfortable as your living room in no time at all, with individual three levels touch controls for the driver and front seat passenger. Back seat passengers are catered for as well, with the optional heated rear seats for the two outer seating positions, equally featuring individual three-level controls.

Adding individual electrical heating on the rear seat's outer positions, your passengers in the rear will enjoy the ride even when it's freezing cold. Featuring heating in the seat cushions and the lower backrest, this function is conveniently controlled from the rear seat using individual three-level controls.

Standing outside your car scraping off the ice on a cold winter’s morning isn’t the best start to your day. Now, thanks to our heated windscreen, all you need to do is push a button. When you do, the windscreen will start de-icing immediately just like the rear window and door mirrors, and you’ll soon be on your way.

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

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

Clean headlights are a prerequisite for excellent vision and a relaxed driving experience in the dark. Our headlight cleaning uses high-pressure jets with nozzles hidden under body-coloured covers in the bumper. When activated, the nozzles pop out of the bumpers and clean the headlamps from dirt. To save washer fluid in dirty conditions, the headlamps are washed automatically at every fifth windscreen wash cycle when the windscreen washer is used more than once every ten minutes.

As well as being lockable and illuminated, the glovebox also comes with pencil and credit card holders.

Both driver and front seat passenger have door panel storage pockets.

The centre console of your Volvo’s cabin is a versatile space with useful storage under the armrest, as well as recesses for smaller items. The armrest also features an AUX input and – depending on your choice of audio system – a USB port to connect your MP3 player or mobile phone to the car’s audio system. Folding back the upper part of the armrest will provide a convenient table for the rear seat passengers.

Conveniently located on the back of the front seats, these pockets provide even more storage space.

For more comfort, the rear centre armrest can be folded down, revealing cupholders and clever storage.

The tailgate can be opened automatically in three different ways: with the remote control, using the button on the dashboard, or by pulling the handle. To help minimise risk of injury, only a switch in the tailgate can be used to trigger automatic closing. Also, an anti-pinch strip around the tailgate opening can detect obstructions to help avoid pinching your fingers.

At Volvo, we know that staying connected to the world is important – even if you're inside the car. That's why we developed Sensus Connect. This innovative technology converts your 7-inch centre display into an internet connected infotainment hub, giving you access to a host of convenient in-car apps for your entertainment, navigation, control, connectivity and service. This also means your Volvo already today is technologically prepared for coming web and cloud-based in-car infotainment functions. Adding Sensus Navigation will provide you with connected navigation functions, smartly integrated with your car. And with Volvo On Call, you get a WiFi hotspot for all your internet-connected mobile devices – it also includes an innovative smartphone app that gives you access to a host of remote functions, such as locking/unlocking the doors, starting the engine heater and just checking up on your car.

With Sensus Navigation, you have all navigation facilities smartly integrated in your Volvo. For your safety, the system is easy to use without taking your attention from traffic. Sensus Navigation connects seamlessly with our cloud-based services and navigation apps. To mention a few examples, these apps can help you find and pay for parking, share your location with friends or simply find the best coffee in town. You can also use information from internet and save as points-of-interest in your navigation system. You can set destinations with voice control, or at the comfort of your home or office using your smartphone. When needed, the system is easy to upgrade – free map updates ensure you the latest available and up to date navigation experience. And adding the Volvo On Call smartphone app you can further facilitate your travel planning – you can send a destination directly from your smartphone to the Sensus Navigation system in your car. It can also connect with your personal calendar and allow you to send meeting appointment destinations to the navigation system for guidance.

Standing outside your car scraping off the ice on a cold winter’s morning isn’t the best start to your day. Now, thanks to our heated windscreen, all you need to do is push a button. When you do, the windscreen will start de-icing immediately just like the rear window and door mirrors, and you’ll soon be on your way.

What kind of driver are you? The answer can change from day to day. Sometimes you want an active driving experience, at others you just want to cruise. The Adaptive Digital Display instrument option offers three set-ups – Elegance, Eco and Performance. They allow you to change the way you receive information according to your mood and driving style. Elegance with it’s black colour theme is the default mode, showing current and average speed, current and average fuel consumption, distance to empty tank, time and outdoor temperature. It also shows engine temperature and revs, and keeps you informed about your Adaptive Cruise Control status. Another feature, Road Sign Information, displays a small symbol showing the current speed limit and overtaking rules. In a really smart move, your satnav directions pop up in the middle of the display so you don’t have to move your eyes between two screens. The Eco mode has a green colour theme and is all about encouraging and rewarding a fuel-efficient driving style. Of course, you still get the benefit of satnav directions and Road Sign Information. The Performance mode is in a striking red, and gives you a large rev counter with your speed in a digital readout in the centre. On the right, a power meter shows how much engine power is available, which is a useful tool for overtaking. You can also opt for the standard Analogue Instrument Cluster with a single large dial and two complementary instruments on either side.

With the high resolution digital instrument cluster you easily adapt the instrument layout and interface to your driving desires. You have three displays to switch between – Elegance, Eco and Performance.

The intuitive centre display allows you to explore conveniently the hi-tech features of your Volvo and personalise them to suit your needs. All information is displayed in a high-resolution 5-inch or 7-inch colour screen. A push of the MY CAR button in the centre console gives you access to all system settings like City Safety, Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Collision Warning with Full Auto Brake and Pedestrian Detection, Driver Alert Control, Lane Keeping Aid, BLIS™, Road Sign Information (RSI), lights, door mirrors, climate, central locking, audio and phone. The multimedia audio systems with 7-inch screen will also display the Sensus Navigation system, park assist camera, DVD, digital TV etc. Everything is conveniently controlled using the centre console or steering wheel controls – so you can keep your attention on the traffic and your hands on the steering wheel.

Conveniently operated from the steering wheel, cruise control allows you to drive in a more relaxed way without having to keep your foot on the accelerator. The car maintains the speed you choose until you turn off the cruise control or press the brake, accelerator or clutch. After braking or using the clutch, the car returns to its previous cruising speed at the touch of a button. After accelerating – for instance to overtake – your car automatically reverts to its previous cruising speed once you release the accelerator.

Helping you to maintain your preset gap to vehicles in front at all speeds up to 200 km/h, the Adaptive Cruise Control is a supportive partner for a more relaxed driving experience on any journey. In slow moving city traffic, the Adaptive Cruise Control stop and go function* with ECO mode automatically adapts your speed to the vehicle in front while helping you save fuel by maintaining smoother progress with less need for surges of acceleration. From standstill, a press of a button or the accelerator is all it takes to make your car smoothly tail the vehicle in front. At speeds over 30 km/h, just select the desired speed and the minimum time gap to the vehicle in front. When the radar sensor detects a slower vehicle in front, the speed automatically adapts to that vehicle. And when the road is clear, the car resumes the selected speed. If Adaptive Cruise Control is disengaged and a vehicle in front comes too close, the distance alert function activates a warning light in the lower section of the windscreen to help you keep a proper distance. Whenever you want, you can also select conventional cruise control by pressing the Adaptive Cruise Control button for a few seconds.

*The Queue Assist and stop and go function from 0 to 30 km/h requires Geartronic™ automatic transmission.

This helps ensure that you don't exceed a certain speed. Just set a speed using the steering wheel controls. When you reach the set speed you'll notice some subtle resistance feedback from the accelerator. To override the speed limiter all you have to do is press down the accelerator.

Operated via the indicator stalk, the trip computer shows current and average fuel consumption, how far the fuel will take you and average speed – helping you drive more economically.

At speeds of up to 30 km/h, the optional Cornering Light illuminates the area in which you’re turning at up to 15 degrees around the car for safer manoeuvring – for instance if you’re turning into a small road or driving through a narrow gateway at night.

Journeys after dark have become a lot more enjoyable – and safer – thanks to our Active High Beam, available as an option. With this system, you don’t need to keep flicking between dipped and full beam, which is not only annoying – according to several studies, it’s also a major cause of night-time accidents. Employing camera technology, AHB recognises the headlight beam of on-coming vehicles and automatically shifts between high and low beam to optimise your vision without dazzling other drivers. And because the system is intelligent, the high beam shuts off when you enter a city, but if you drive past an illuminated sign – say a filling station or supermarket – it stays on so you can see what’s coming up. This means you benefit from safety as well as convenience.

Monitors the outside temperature and warns you if there is any risk of black ice.

With Road Sign Information you don't have to miss important road signs. A forward camera detects speed limit, "no overtaking", "no entry" and various types of supplementary signs. The actual sign is then displayed on the centre dial on the driver display – to help keep you constantly alert on current restrictions. If you want, Road Sign Information can also alert you with a visual warning if you exceed the speed limit, by flashing gently three times. This is easily set in the centre console menu.

BLIS™ is a Volvo innovation that helps alert you if a vehicle enters your blind spot or approaches fast from behind. The rear-mounted radar sensors cover a large area behind the car and work in various sorts of weather and light conditions, day or night. As a vehicle enters your blind spot or approaches rapidly from behind, this function can alert you via a warning light in the front door posts – left and right. Together with the door mirrors, which include a wide-angle mirror on the driver side, this helps you assess the feasibility of a lane change. BLIS™ is activated once the car exceeds 12 km/h and reacts to almost any type of vehicle, including motorcycles. Reversing out of a parking space or anywhere else with restricted vision at the sides can be a tricky business. To make these manoeuvres easier and less stressful our Cross Traffic Alert uses the rear radar sensors to alert you of crossing traffic from the sides. You'll be alerted by an audible warning from the left or right rear loudspeaker and by a graphic warning in the centre display. Alerting for approaching vehicles as well as for pedestrians and cyclists, Cross Traffic Alert is especially helpful in tight and crowded areas where the side view might be limited.

Activated when you reverse, rear park assist sensors help you when manoeuvring into tight spaces. The audio system is turned down and a pulsating sound from the rear loudspeakers increases in frequency as the car gets closer to the obstacle, becoming a continuous tone when it’s time to stop. The centre console display screen shows a top view of the car and the activated sensors.

Activated when you reverse, rear park assist sensors help you when manoeuvring into tight spaces. The audio system is turned down and a pulsating sound from the rear loudspeakers increases in frequency as the car gets closer to the obstacle, becoming a continuous tone when it’s time to stop. Front park assist sensors perform a similar function at the front of the vehicle – alerting you via the front loudspeakers. The centre console display screen shows a top view of the car and the activated sensors.

The outer head restraints can be folded forward so they don’t block your field of vision when the rear seats are unoccupied. In the folded position, they are designed to obstruct passengers from sitting down without raising the restraints to their upright position. The rear middle head restraint can be fully retracted into the backrest to further improve rear vision. It’s designed to obstruct taller passengers from sitting down without raising the restraint to its upright position.

Once activated, 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 can also automatically adapt the intermittent windscreen-wiper function. Its sensitivity can be adjusted via a ring on the wiper stalk.

With the light switch in the Auto position, the fuel-saving Daytime Running Lights are automatically activated. If the daylight becomes to dim, or if you enter a tunnel for example, a sensor will detect the changed light conditions and activate your car's headlights. They will also be activated if you turn on the windscreen wipers or the rear fog light. The system will turn the headlights automatically as well.

Easily adjusted from the driver's seat, the power adjustable door mirrors are electrically heated and therefore kept free from frost in cold weather.

The generously dimensioned door mirrors are power operated using a joystick in the driver's door panel. Indicators are embedded in the sides of the mirror – a nudge of the indicator stalk will activate three flashes of the indicator light, so there's less risk your turn will go unannounced. To further enhance your safety and comfort, there are options such as power folding, ground lighting and our BLIS™ blind spot information system.

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.

This is a mirror that automatically adjusts itself to deflect the headlamp beams of the car behind you. When there's no light to dazzle you, it automatically readjusts to its normal
setting. And to help you take a bearing, your direction is continuously displayed in the rear view mirror glass.

One of the most annoying things about night driving is the blinding glare from other cars’ headlights. Our generously dimensioned door mirrors are made of chromatic glass that automatically dims to diminish glare from traffic behind you. The mirrors use an internal sensor to monitor light conditions and recognise glare from headlights. When this is detected, the inner and outer rear view mirrors will darken simultaneously to the exact degree necessary. Once the source of the glare disappears, the glass returns to its normal state automatically. Other functions include an optional built-in compass in the inner rear view mirror and ground lighting as well as indicators embedded in the sides of the outer mirrors.

To help you negotiate those tight parking spots, your Volvo has electrically foldable door mirrors. And to make sure that a following car’s headlights don’t dazzle you, an auto-dimming function reduces intrusive light reflection. The door mirror auto-dimming function uses the same sensor located in your interior rearview mirror, which also dims when a following car’s headlights are too bright. This makes your journey safer and more relaxing at night. A handy light in each door mirror illuminates the ground beneath the front doors as you approach the car, which means you’ll see puddles and potential problems well in advance. The light also gives you extra security at night, especially in dark parking areas.

Fitted in the sun visor, lights come on when you open the vanity mirror cover – convenient and practical. Available for both the driver and front passenger.

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. The integrated ground lighting is activated by the approach light button on your remote control, enhancing security as you go to and from your car at night. And to facilitate parking, the door mirrors can tilt automatically (or by the push of a button) when reversing.

The power windows have controls conveniently located in the door armrests. The front windows can be lowered or raised with a quick press or pull of a button, and you can lock the back windows from the driver’s seat if you’re travelling with small children. In this case, you’ll also be glad of the automatic anti-clamp protection, which will stop a window from closing on a trapped little hand.

An entry light on both the driver and front passenger side lights the foot-well area as you get into the car. Front reading lamps are integrated in the roof console. The rear seat reading lamps are recessed in the roof and shaded to avoid dazzling the driver. The interior light will fade out gradually after the doors have been closed, but will switch off immediately if the ignition is turned on or the doors are locked.

The optional speed-dependent and progressive power steering uses sophisticated, speed-sensitive technology to regulate the amount of power assistance you need while driving. At highway speeds, the steering is firm and positive. When parking or in slow traffic, the steering is light and effortless. While the steering sensitivity adjusts automatically depending on your car’s speed, you can choose in the centre display between three levels of overall steering sensitivity – for low steering effort, medium or high.

The Power Parking Brake (PPB) makes moving off from steep gradients easier. Just press the PPB button, engage DRIVE or your first gear and pull away. The PPB will release automatically.

With our Tyre Pressure Monitoring System you'll be instantly alerted if one of your tyres is low on pressure. Active at 30 km/h or more, it helps increase your safety as well as ensuring maintained comfort and handling characteristics. The system uses sensors mounted in each tyre valve.

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. Applies only to halogen headlamps; the LED headlamps adjust automatically.

Neatly integrated at the rear end of the tunnel console, the extra power outlet can provide electricity for a phone charger, laptop, game console, DVD player or other portable electronic devices.

Want to access your mobile phone while you’re on the road to find an address, lay out a route in the navigation system and call ahead that you’re on your way? The on-board Bluetooth® technology lets you do all this wirelessly through the infotainment system – and play some music along the way. Once configured for a mobile phone, the system automatically recognises your phone as you enter the car. And as you get in and out of the car, the system automatically allows you to switch freely from the phone to the handsfree system and back again. The audio systems High Performance and Premium Sound by Harman Kardon include an integrated Bluetooth® handsfree system, allowing you to operate your phone conveniently using the buttons on the steering wheel or the centre console keypad. Phone information is shown on the centre console multimedia display. And if you’ve chosen Sensus Navigation system, you can make your calls using voice control. What’s more, you can stream high quality audio from a media player and listen to it through the car’s audio system.

The Bluetooth® word mark and logos are owned by the Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and any use of such marks by Volvo Car Corporation is under licence. Other trademarks and trade names are those of their respective owners.

We created the Volvo On Call smartphone app to make your everyday life a little less complicated. This app gives you a host of clever solutions that allow you to access and control your Volvo remotely from your smartphone, iPad or a wearable device such as Apple Watch, Android Wear and Microsoft Band 2. The Volvo On Call app can also be used on a Windows 10 based PC or tablet. It's even compatible with Flic buttons that allow you to connect single tasks, like pre-heating your car, to separate wireless buttons you can keep anywhere you want. Whenever you want, you can check the remaining distance to empty tank, the fuel level, average fuel consumption, the outdoor temperature at your car, if the doors are locked and much more. And if you've left the car unlocked, you will be reminded and can lock it (or unlock it) remotely just using your smartphone. You can conveniently create your own driving journals and download data to Excel. You can also see your car's location on a map and make it honk and flash if you need to locate it in a huge parking lot. Further facilitating your travel planning, you can even send a destination directly to the Sensus Navigation system in your car. It can also connect with your personal calendar and allow you to send meeting appointment destinations to the navigation system for guidance. Another everyday luxury you will enjoy with Volvo On Call, is the possibility to control the climate in your car using your smartphone. To warm up or cool down the cabin before travelling, you can remotely start the engine and control the climate system. And if your car is equipped with a parking heater, you can start the heater remotely via your smartphone for a comfortable climate without using the engine. Volvo On Call also enables you to create a strong, stable internet connection via the roof antenna. You simply turn your Volvo into a Wi-Fi hotspot – anybody that shares your ride can easily connect his or her smartphone, laptop or tablet to the internet. And whether you've got a flat tire, have a breakdown or get into an accident, Volvo On Call is there to send assistance anywhere. Push the Volvo On Call button in your car (or use your smartphone app) to speak to an operator who can dispatch assistance to your GPS location. Or in an emergency that calls for help right away, simply press the SOS button. In an accident that activates the car's airbags or safety belt pre-tensioners or if you have run into a large animal, your Volvo alerts a trained operator to contact the car and send emergency service. Volvo On Call can also alert you to an attempted break-in. And if the car is stolen, the Volvo On Call operator can use the GPS in your Volvo to track it.

And perhaps most of all: your Volvo is already today technologically prepared for coming web and cloud based in-car infotainment functions.

Options: Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB), Park Assist Camera (PAC), Digital TV, Sensus Navigation, Volvo On Call.

There are a number of ways in which you can enjoy MP3 music files in your Volvo. The CD player is compatible with a variety of audio media formats. If you’d like to connect your personal MP3 player to the audio system, there’s a standard auxiliary audio input (AUX) in the storage beneath the front centre armrest. Volume is conveniently controlled from the steering wheel or centre console. If you choose the High Performance, High Performance Multi Media or Premium Sound Multi Media audio system, there’s a USB port that allows you to fully integrate your iPod®, MP3 player or USB device with the audio system. Playlists, songs and artists are clearly displayed on the centre console, while your player is charged at the same time.

iPod is a trademark of Apple Computer Inc.

The integrated Bluetooth® technology allows wireless communication and streaming of music files. Simply connect your Bluetooth® compatible mobile phone to your audio system and enjoy the music files stored in your phone. Songs and artists are shown on the integrated centre display.

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.

Sharing the experience doesn’t necessarily mean everybody wants to listen to the same music. Incorporating sockets for personal headphones, the rear seat audio console allows passengers to adjust their own volume and choose between musical sources, songs or playlists.

The twelve high-end loudspeakers in the Premium Sound system are powered by a 5x130 W digital amplifier. There are three separate drivers – woofer, midrange and tweeter – in each front door. In the rear doors there is a similar set-up. Each speaker has its own crossover filter to harmonise with the others. The latest generation Dolby® Pro Logic® II surround sound uses the centre loudspeakers (woofer and tweeter) and a sound processor to recreate authentic sound with a strong sense of presence for everyone in the car. The digital class D amplifier features new technology to provide extremely high efficiency, enabling it to generate maximum audio power from the least amount of current.

Want to enjoy some extra bass? This 260W subwoofer with two 6.5-inch woofers in a ported enclosure provides distinct bass reproduction at all volumes. The subwoofer is hidden under the load compartment floor. Available for the Premium Sound Multi Media.

With a digital radio on board, you can listen to Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) – the standard for digital radio in Europe. In countries with DAB broadcasts, you'll have access to more radio channels, improved radio reception and near-CD quality sound.

Don’t miss your favourite TV show even if you’re in your car. Complement your audio system with this digital TV receiver, and you can watch terrestrial TV broadcasts on the integrated 7-inch centre display when the car is not being driven. The digital TV is conveniently controlled using the optional remote control.

For more fun on long journeys, the remote-controlled RSE system will entertain you for hours. Dual 8” screens are smartly integrated in the front head restraints and the system is fully integrated with the in-car Multi Media technology. The passengers can see the same movie or play the same game on both screens, or choose to view a film on one screen and play games on the other. Sound is provided via the car’s audio system or headphones. The RSE system can be controlled from both the rear and front seats. External players, USB units and game consoles are easily connected via outlets in the front centre armest. By adding digital TV, rear seat passengers can also watch terrestrial TV on the move. The RSE dual screen system is only available in combination with High Performance Multi Media or Premium Sound Multi Media.

Neatly integrated at the rear end of the tunnel console, the extra power outlet can provide electricity for a phone charger, laptop, game console, DVD player or other portable electronic devices.

Good lighting is the key to creating the right atmosphere. This is as true in your car as it is in your home. Our optional Ambient Light package illuminates any features you might need to find at night. A sophisticated white glow ensures you’ll never have to fumble in the dark for cupholders or root around blindly in the door pockets. “The overall effect is very warm and cosy, like being in a warm Swedish house on a cold night,” say our designers. The colour theme corresponds beautifully with the backlit white controls in the dash and elsewhere in the car. Even the optional compass in your rear view mirror lights up in the same elegant white tone.

To help you create an even more individual and sporting appearance for your Volvo, the port pedals bring a dash of motorsport style. The pedals are finished in brushed aluminium and rubber, further adding to their sense of exclusivity. (Standard on R-Design)

The rear skid plate in aluminium finish with integrated dual end pipes further enhances the commanding character. The dual end pipes are mounted on each side –providing a powerful yet refined finish to your XC60’s rugged design.

This characteristic styling detail perfectly complements the front and adds to the rugged cross country look.

For that performance-oriented look, sport tailpipes in unique chrome-finished add to the dynamic character of your Volvo.

You can order your new Volvo with beautifully crafted integrated tailpipes. They remain perfectly in place, even though the pipe system expands by 25mm as the engine reaches its operating temperature. This is true Scandinavian precision engineering.

Would you like to enhance the dynamic personality of your XC60 even further? Well then, R-design is for you, with a range of features to give your Volvo a sporty, unique profile. For an exterior with a more individual, dynamic look, R-design includes truly eye-catching, sporty five-spoke alloy wheels and unique door mirror covers with Silk Metal finish. At the back, you get a motorsport-style diffuser that gives your XC60 an exciting, sporty look. And R-design’s chromed dual exhaust pipes add the perfect finishing touch to your XC60’s exterior.

These smoothly integrated aluminium roof rails further enhance the dynamic design of your Volvo and make it easy to utilise Volvo's load carrying system. They're aerodynamically designed to help keep down wind noise and fuel consumption.

A unique diffuser that adds to the XC60’s sporty and dynamic look. Developed to make the high-speed properties of the car even more stable. (Standard on R-Design)

A specially-designed dual exhaust system with double sport tailpipes that further enhance the car’s sporting character. The double sport tailpipes are mounted on each side. A unique rear skid plate comes with the kit. (Standard on R-Design)

To enable you to carry very long objects inside your Volvo, the front passenger seat backrest can be conveniently folded flat as an option. Not available together with Sport seats.

To provide multiple load configurations with a flat load floor, the rear backrest is split three-ways in the proportions 40/20/40. If you need extra space for ski gear for that trip to the Alps, lowering the centre section provides ample space for loading snowboards and skis, while still keeping the two most comfortable seats. What’s more, the backrests and head restraints only take one step to fold.

The tailgate can be opened automatically in three different ways: with the remote control, using the button on the dashboard, or by pulling the handle. To help minimise risk of injury, only a switch in the tailgate can be used to trigger automatic closing. Also, an anti-pinch strip around the tailgate opening can detect obstructions to help avoid pinching your fingers.

Use this retractable load cover to conceal your gear in the load compartment. It’s colour-coordinated with the interior.

These three elastic net pockets provide practical storage for small items on the front passenger side of the tunnel console and along both side panels in the load compartment.

This easily installed telescopic frame with floor rails and load holder makes it simple to secure and organise bags, gear and loose items. You can separate fragile objects from other cargo, and divide the cargo area in two if required. And if the organiser isn’t needed, it’s easy to remove and store.

Folds up from the load compartment floor to accommodate shopping bags or other cargo – secure with hooks and an elastic strap. When not in use, it's hidden in the floor.

Under the load compartment floor you’ve got an extra space for storage. This area is easy to access via a hinged floor hatch. In addition the tailgate – just by the function of its elegant design – overlaps and locks the hatch when it's closed, preventing a smash-and-grab burglary.

By adding a 12V power outlet in the luggage compartment, you'll easily be able to connect extra electrical equipment.

This ingenious feature, which will keep stowed items safely in the boot, is split for maximum flexibility. You can pull up the wide part behind two back seats and still fold down the small part of the backrest for long and bulky loads.

When you tow or carry a heavy load, automatic levelling adjusts the rear suspension so the vehicle will maintain stability, as well as the correct ground clearance and headlight angle.

When you are towing a trailer or caravan, the Trailer Stability Assist can counteract so-called snaking to help maintain stability. It continuously monitors oscillation tendencies and can help prevent this scenario by braking one or more wheel to compensate. If this is not sufficient, or if you ignore it, all four wheels will be braked and engine torque will be reduced. Trailer Stability Assist is active at speeds from 50km/h.

These smoothly integrated aluminium roof rails further enhance the dynamic design of your Volvo and make it easy to utilise Volvo's load carrying system. They're aerodynamically designed to help keep down wind noise and fuel consumption.

Do you want an exhilarating drive, but won't compromise with fuel consumption and environmental care? With our lightweight Drive-E powertrain generation no efforts have been spared to give you the most efficient, confident and exciting driving experience – for today as well as for the future. Utilising state-of-the-art engine technology and innovative out-of-the-box thinking, our engineers have created a range of 2.0-litre four-cylinder engines with the same power output and driveability as considerably larger engines with six cylinders or more. And what's even better – the fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions are supremely low. Low friction technology, innovative engine management systems, common rail direct fuel injection and combined supercharger/turbo technology are some of the secrets behind this marvel of pure efficiency – the supercharger gives more torque at low revs for a great throttle response, with the turbo boost kicking in at higher revs. Our Stop/Start technology and engine braking energy regeneration help you to reduce fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions even more. And low engine weight contributes to agile handling on winding roads. Together with the fuel-saving eight-speed Geartronic™ automatic transmission, the 306 hp/400 Nm T6 AWD drivetrain ensures you'll always be in the right gear to enjoy superior comfort and engine response. And if you'd like to boost your efficiency even further, our intelligent ECO function optimises the engine, the automatic transmission and the climate system to further lower your fuel consumption with about 5%. For ultimate driving dynamics, the engine comes with All-Wheel Drive with Instant Traction™.

We engineered this engine for Volvo drivers who desire even more power and performance, but still want the benefits of a refined and fuel-efficient powerplant. This 2.4-litre five-cylinder 220 hp engine offers smooth running. It also boasts sequential twin turbochargers – a smaller one provides virtually lag-free low-rev response, whilst a larger one comes on line as revs and speed rise. These turbos help deliver flexible and responsive power right across the rev range. And a very generous 420 Nm of torque developed from as low as 1500rpm gives the D5 its relaxed but punchy performance characteristic. That’s quite handy for quick and safe overtaking, especially in the 80-120 km/h speed range. So the D5 delivers a great driving experience, but not at the expense of fuel efficiency or CO₂ emissions – with our Stop/Start system and fuel-saving and CO₂-reducing engine braking energy regeneration, the D5 is one of the most fuel-efficient and lowest CO₂-emitting powertrains in its class. This engine is mated to a six-speed manual transmission and our All-Wheel Drive with Instant Traction™ for ultimate driving dynamics.

We created our new generation Geartronic™ automatic transmissions to give you a more intuitive and efficient driving experience. Mated to our all-new generation turbocharged four-cylinder Drive-E powertrains, this six-speed automatic transmission ensures you're always in the right gear – whether it's for optimal engine response and driveability, or for a smooth driving experience with the highest fuel-efficiency. And offering faster and more precise gear changes in the manual mode, our gearshift paddles will add even more fun behind the steering wheel.

For maximum driving enjoyment, the six-speed manual gearbox offers fluid and precise gear selection. The sixth gear provides relaxed cruising, improved fuel economy and lower CO₂ emissions on the motorway. And the smooth action of the clutch assures that you move off with confidence and grace.

If you enjoy driving, our new gearshift paddles for the automatic transmission will add even more fun behind the steering wheel. They offer faster and more precise manual gear changes. And by allowing you to keep your hands on the steering wheel, they also ensure you’re always 100 per cent in control of your car. (Only in combination with a 3-spoke steering wheel)

To further reduce fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions by up to 8% when driving in the city, all engines feature our Stop/Start technology. Once the engine is warmed up and the car comes to a standstill (for example at a traffic light) where you put the gear in neutral and release the clutch, the engine automatically shuts off. And instantly as you press the clutch pedal, the engine restarts and you’re on the go. If your Volvo features a Geartronic™ automatic transmission, the engine automatically shuts off when you bring the car to a halt and restarts the instant you press the accelerator. An extra battery ensures that all infotainment and comfort systems will function as usual even with the engine shut off. The Stop/Start system can be deactivated with a push of a button in the centre console and is active between 0° and 30° C.

Take advantage of energy. Every time you release the accelerator while a gear is engaged, the engine braking energy that otherwise would be wasted is fed back to the battery. This reduces the average load of the alternator and results in 2-3 per cent lower fuel consumption – a valuable contribution to fuel economy and lower CO₂ emissions.

The advanced AWD technology with Instant Traction™ helps increase driving stability and traction on all road surfaces, in all weather conditions. It has an electronic management system that constantly monitors the speed of the wheels, the throttle, engine torque, engine speed and the brakes. As driving conditions change, wheels with the best grip get the most power. When a tyre loses traction, power is reduced to that wheel and instantly transferred to the more sure-footed wheels.

Hill Start Assist automatically keeps the brake pressure while you move your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator, so you’ll never slide backwards or stall your engine again when driving off up an incline. Hill Start Assist also works in reverse gear.

Hill Descent Control offers a smooth and controlled hill descent on steep, rough and slippery roads. Simply push the Hill Descent Control button and the vehicle will descend using the brake system to control each wheel’s rotating speed – you are then free to concentrate fully on steering. Hill Descent Control also makes it easier to move off when towing a heavy trailer or a boat on a trailer up a ramp. The technology also works in reverse gear.

The chassis of your XC60 has been tuned for a very comfortable ride, but not at the expense of sporty and well-balanced handling. The advanced multi-link rear and MacPherson front suspension mounted on a rigid body give you a sense of control and confidence on the road. Very generous ground clearance (230mm) and short overhangs contribute to an excellent performance on rough roads with a great ability to go off-road, too.

If you want an even more driver-focused experience, you can now have your XC60 fitted with our R-Design Sport Chassis, which was previously only available on the R-Design model. The springs, shocks and anti-roll bars are all sports-tuned for more road-hugging control.

One of the most vital safety advances of the past decade, Electronic Stability Control helps minimize the risk of wheel spin and skids at all speeds in all conditions. And helping to minimize understeer at all speeds, it also contributes to safer and more fun cornering characteristics. The system looks at factors like what direction the car is travelling, how fast the wheels are rotating and how much steering lock is applied. Using all this information, 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 can also prevent the wheels from locking during engine braking or when changing to a lower gear in slippery conditions, using Engine Drag Control. To further reduce the risk of losing traction in emergency manoeuvres and corner with high lateral forces, the function Advanced Stability Control senses the car's roll movement and lateral acceleration. But Automatic Stability Control is also about giving you a rewarding driving experience, too, so when you’re cornering enthusiastically the car will feel even more dynamically stable. Another feature that means you’ll experience sharper turn-in to corners, less understeer, more powerful acceleration and more fun behind the wheel is our Corner Traction Control with torque vectoring. 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. Our new 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 for a bit of performance driving, Electronic Stability Control has a Sport Mode. It cuts out the engine power reducing function and allows a controlled amount of rear wheel slip, as long as it senses that the driver is using the steering wheel and accelerator in a dynamic way and as long as it doesn’t go too far, in which case it will return to the normal Electronic Stability Control-function.

To help protect passengers in a rollover situation, Our Roll-Over Protection System is activated by a sensor that monitors the vehicle’s lean angle. In the event of a rollover the safety belt pre-tensioners are activated for every seat to help keep passengers more securely in place. At the same time, the Inflatable Curtain deploys to help protect against secondary impacts.

The Continuously Controlled Chassis Concept provides a choice of three distinctive driving modes – Comfort, Sport or Advanced. Whichever you choose, this technology monitors the car, road and driver 500 times per second, simultaneously adjusting each shock absorber to maintain optimal handling. At the heart of Four-C is a high-tech electronic management system, which continuously controls the four Monroe-Öhlins shock absorbers and interacts with the Electronic Stability Control system, engine, brakes and steering to enhance your chosen handling style.

In the event of an emergency manoeuvre, our Roll Stability Control (RSC) can step in to help prevent the vehicle from rolling over. It features a gyroscopic sensor that registers the vehicle’s lean angle and rollover risk. If required, the Roll Stability Control will cut engine power or brake one or more of the wheels just enough to reduce the centrifugal force and help regain balance.

When you are towing a trailer or caravan, the Trailer Stability Assist can counteract so-called snaking to help maintain stability. It continuously monitors oscillation tendencies and can help prevent this scenario by braking one or more wheel to compensate. If this is not sufficient, or if you ignore it, all four wheels will be braked and engine torque will be reduced. Trailer Stability Assist is active at speeds from 50km/h.

When you tow or carry a heavy load, automatic levelling adjusts the rear suspension so the vehicle will maintain stability, as well as the correct ground clearance and headlight angle.

The optional speed-dependent and progressive power steering uses sophisticated, speed-sensitive technology to regulate the amount of power assistance you need while driving. At highway speeds, the steering is firm and positive. When parking or in slow traffic, the steering is light and effortless. While the steering sensitivity adjusts automatically depending on your car’s speed, you can choose in the centre display between three levels of overall steering sensitivity – for low steering effort, medium or high.

Our IAQS technology continuously monitors incoming air and will, if necessary, temporarily close external air vents to shut out carbon monoxide, ground-level ozone and nitrogen dioxide. When the air vents are opened, an active carbon filter protects the passengers from other harmful gases and unpleasant odours. This helps to ensure that the air you breathe in the car is clean, often cleaner than that outside when driving in heavy city traffic and tunnels.

To prepare a fresh environment in your new Volvo even on a warm day, the automatic CleanZone function initiates a ventilation cycle, which is triggered when you unlock the car with your remote control. This feature is active on days when it is at least 10°C outside. The automatic CleanZone function also does a great job of venting out allergy and asthma inducing substances, especially gases and smells from new materials in your new car. This automatic function is gradually reduced during the first years of usage to finally be terminated.

Preventing dust and pollen from entering the cabin via the ventilation system, the cabin filter is a real benefit to driver and passengers, especially those prone to hay fever or other allergies.

This reduces the average load of the alternator and results in 2-3 per cent lower fuel consumption – a valuable contribution to fuel economy and lower CO₂ emissions.

Better design really can make a difference. To reduce energy losses from wind and rolling resistance, we use advanced aerodynamics, lightweight materials and low friction technology. Together with our state-of-the-art engines, this adds up to lower fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions for your car.

Going into action quickly after a cold start, our advanced emission control eliminates between 95 and 99 per cent of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides from petrol engine exhaust gases. And Volvo turbodiesels feature a particulate filter that removes about 95 per cent of the particles from diesel exhaust gases.

To reduce usage of environmentally hazardous solvents, all Volvo exterior colours are water-based. What’s more, our painting facilities are among the cleanest in the world.

To help minimise our cars’ total environmental impact, every Volvo is designed to aid the recovery and recycling process at the end of its useful life.

With our Tyre Pressure Monitoring System you'll be instantly alerted if one of your tyres is low on pressure. Active at 30 km/h or more, it helps increase your safety as well as ensuring maintained comfort and handling characteristics. The system uses sensors mounted in each tyre valve.

Alcoguard is a integrated system designed to help the driver avoid driving under the effects of alcohol. Before starting the car, the driver blows into a wireless hand held unit that communicates with the car's electronic control systems. The breath sample is analysed and the result visually displayed on the unit. If the person intending to drive leaves a sample with an alcohol content of over 0.2 g/l, Alcoguard prevents the car from being started. The system is built around the same technology as that used by police forces and is very easy to use.

This aluminium shield is designed to protect engine, sump and transmission from bottoming when driving on really bad surfaces.

In cold weather, an electric engine heater will make your car easier to start, help avoid engine wear and help reduce environmental impact. Adding a separate cabin heater to the electric engine heater means your cabin is warmer and your windows defrost faster.

Ensure you’ve got a comfortable cabin temperature right from the start of any drive. A press of a button on your car key, and you remotely start the engine to warm up or cool down the passenger compartment upon your arrival. The engine will run for max 15 minutes and can be remote started again if you want to. Only available in combination with petrol engine and Geartronic automatic transmission.

Remote start is an indispensable accessory on cold winter days when you want to turn on the heater without having to go out to the car. If there is an existing fuel-driven heater the car key can be upgraded with the remote start function. With the push of a button on the car key the heater is started and the car acknowledges this by a flash of the lights.

Push a button and enjoy a warm welcome in cold winter days. Within a range of 600 meters, this convenient remote control allows you to start the heater without going out to your car. Its compact shape makes it easy to bring on your car key chain. Up to three remote start keys can be connected simultaneously.

To make sure that your car's battery always has enough charge to start the car in cold weather when the fuel-driven heater is being used, our battery charger is a really useful option. This is particularly helpful in very cold climates where your Volvo is used for short journeys and the fuel driven heater is always used. It’s easy to connect to your car's front bumper-mounted electrical socket, too. Even better, regular charging keeps your battery in top condition and extends its life.

When the weather's cold, adding a separate compartment heater to the electric engine heater means your cabin is warmer and your windows defrost faster.

What kind of driver are you? The answer can change from day to day. Sometimes you want an active driving experience, at others you just want to cruise. The Adaptive Digital Display instrument option offers three set-ups – Elegance, Eco and Performance. They allow you to change the way you receive information according to your mood and driving style. Elegance with it’s black colour theme is the default mode, showing current and average speed, current and average fuel consumption, distance to empty tank, time and outdoor temperature. It also shows engine temperature and revs, and keeps you informed about your Adaptive Cruise Control status. Another feature, Road Sign Information, displays a small symbol showing the current speed limit and overtaking rules. In a really smart move, your satnav directions pop up in the middle of the display so you don’t have to move your eyes between two screens. The Eco mode has a green colour theme and is all about encouraging and rewarding a fuel-efficient driving style. Of course, you still get the benefit of satnav directions and Road Sign Information. The Performance mode is in a striking red, and gives you a large rev counter with your speed in a digital readout in the centre. On the right, a power meter shows how much engine power is available, which is a useful tool for overtaking. You can also opt for the standard Analogue Instrument Cluster with a single large dial and two complementary instruments on either side.

Activated when you reverse, rear park assist sensors help you when manoeuvring into tight spaces. The audio system is turned down and a pulsating sound from the rear loudspeakers increases in frequency as the car gets closer to the obstacle, becoming a continuous tone when it’s time to stop. The centre console display screen shows a top view of the car and the activated sensors.

Imagine being able to see around corners at tricky junctions where hedges or buildings might impede your view. Well, Volvo’s Parking Assistance Camera (front blind view) lets you do just that with an increased 45° field of vision to the left and right. And the 7-inch multimedia screen shows you what the camera, discreetly mounted in your car’s grille, can see.

With Sensus Navigation, you have all navigation facilities smartly integrated in your Volvo. For your safety, the system is easy to use without taking your attention from traffic. Sensus Navigation connects seamlessly with our cloud-based services and navigation apps. To mention a few examples, these apps can help you find and pay for parking, share your location with friends or simply find the best coffee in town. You can also use information from internet and save as points-of-interest in your navigation system. You can set destinations with voice control, or at the comfort of your home or office using your smartphone. When needed, the system is easy to upgrade – free map updates ensure you the latest available and up to date navigation experience. And adding the Volvo On Call smartphone app you can further facilitate your travel planning – you can send a destination directly from your smartphone to the Sensus Navigation system in your car. It can also connect with your personal calendar and allow you to send meeting appointment destinations to the navigation system for guidance.

Conveniently operated from the steering wheel, cruise control allows you to drive in a more relaxed way without having to keep your foot on the accelerator. The car maintains the speed you choose until you turn off the cruise control or press the brake, accelerator or clutch. After braking or using the clutch, the car returns to its previous cruising speed at the touch of a button. After accelerating – for instance to overtake – your car automatically reverts to its previous cruising speed once you release the accelerator.

To help you negotiate those tight parking spots, your Volvo has electrically foldable door mirrors. And to make sure that a following car’s headlights don’t dazzle you, an auto-dimming function reduces intrusive light reflection. The door mirror auto-dimming function uses the same sensor located in your interior rearview mirror, which also dims when a following car’s headlights are too bright. This makes your journey safer and more relaxing at night. A handy light in each door mirror illuminates the ground beneath the front doors as you approach the car, which means you’ll see puddles and potential problems well in advance. The light also gives you extra security at night, especially in dark parking areas.

This is a mirror that automatically adjusts itself to deflect the headlamp beams of the car behind you. When there's no light to dazzle you, it automatically readjusts to its normal
setting. And to help you take a bearing, your direction is continuously displayed in the rear view mirror glass.

We created the RSE system to make the long drives more enjoyable for everybody in your car. Turning the rear seat into an entertainment centre, your passengers can enjoy their favourite films or play games on separate 8-inch LCD touch-screens integrated in the backside of the front head restraints. Each screen is served by a dedicated DVD player and can be tilted for optimum vision. Wireless headphones and a remote control are included, too. Inputs for USB sticks, SD cards and Apple® devices as well as AUX inputs ensure you can connect any other external source. And connecting your iPhone® or iPad® to the system, you can stream video app content. Of course, we have tested the RSE system to ensure it meets our high safety demands.

What kind of driver are you? The answer can change from day to day. Sometimes you want an active driving experience, at others you just want to cruise. The Adaptive Digital Display instrument option offers three set-ups – Elegance, Eco and Performance. They allow you to change the way you receive information according to your mood and driving style. Elegance with it’s black colour theme is the default mode, showing current and average speed, current and average fuel consumption, distance to empty tank, time and outdoor temperature. It also shows engine temperature and revs, and keeps you informed about your Adaptive Cruise Control status. Another feature, Road Sign Information, displays a small symbol showing the current speed limit and overtaking rules. In a really smart move, your satnav directions pop up in the middle of the display so you don’t have to move your eyes between two screens. The Eco mode has a green colour theme and is all about encouraging and rewarding a fuel-efficient driving style. Of course, you still get the benefit of satnav directions and Road Sign Information. The Performance mode is in a striking red, and gives you a large rev counter with your speed in a digital readout in the centre.

The new generation Polestar Performance Optimisations for our new Drive-E engines allows you to enjoy a faster, more precise and intuitive driving experience in your Volvo. The same holistic approach as when optimising race cars where transferred by the Polestar engineers into the new optimisations for Drive-E; our latest and most efficient powertrain ever. We have optimised five important performance areas, for example the mid-range engine performance, the gearshifts and the throttle response. Together, these improvements makes your Volvo even more dynamic and responsive to drive when you need it – traits that are equally important for all forms of active driving, regardless of whether you’re on the race track or on the open road.

Our passion for driving led us to design this range of Polestar Performance Parts for your Volvo XC60. This Complete Package includes essential hardware to add performance and transform the car’s appearance. It comprises everything from improvements to the chassis, wheels and tyres, intake and exhaust as well as aerodynamics and interior details. The Polestar-developed shock absorbers and coil springs give a more direct and responsive driving experience, while the lightweight Polestar 21” alloy wheels with high-performance tyres will help with added steering precision and road grip. Designed to reduce pressure, the stainless steel exhaust system with larger tailpipes gives the engine note a harder edge. Combined with the unique Polestar air filter, it also allows the engine to breathe more freely for improved performance. A rear diffuser enhances downforce to increase stability at high speeds, and the Polestar tailgate spoiler will efficiently aid high-speed stability as well as sharpen the car’s appearance. Subtle exterior details such as the black door mirror covers, lower door decor stripes and a black tailgate handle underline the dynamic character of your Volvo. On the inside of your car, the engraved Polestar instep plate in stainless steel, the Polestar gear knob and the aluminium sport pedals remind you what you're about to drive every time you take your position behind the steering wheel. All Polestar Performance Parts meet all Volvo safety requirements. They are developed and tested by Volvo Cars and Polestar, ensuring a perfect fit and finish, as well as impeccable road manners, and with no impact on the car's limited factory warranty. For the most dynamic engine characteristics, you can add the Polestar Performance Optimisation that will give you an even faster and more exact drivetrain response.

Designed to reduce pressure, the stainless steel exhaust system with larger dual tailpipes gives the engine note a harder edge.

Wherever you go in your Volvo, you and your passengers are surrounded by a strong protective steel cage. And that it’s reinforced with one of the strongest steel types available – hot formed boron steel. In a collision, the front and rear crumple zones help to dissipate the energy of the crash to reduce the impact on those inside the car, while in a side-on impact, our SIPS™ side impact protection system distributes the crash force across a large portion of the car’s body to further reduce your risk of injury. And to further help protect passengers, there is a steel cross-member under the dashboard.

In a frontal offset or side-on collision, the Inflatable Curtain helps protect the heads of both front and rear passengers who are sitting on the sides. It also stays inflated for several seconds to provide prolonged protection in the event of secondary impacts. And in Volvos equipped with integrated booster seats, the Inflatable Curtain has been extended downward to improve head protection for smaller or younger children.

The unique geometry of the frontal structure and longitudinal steel struts in the doors help disperse crash energy away from the front to the rear of the car, reducing impact effects on driver and passengers. And further adding to your protection, the compact, transversely mounted engine installation allows maximum space for deformation and energy dispersion.

Safety belts are the first line of defence when it comes to help protecting people during a crash. That’s why we introduced them in 1959. We also invented the audible and visual safety belt reminder and today, everybody in the car is reminded to fasten their safety belts before moving off. And in the information display on the instrument panel, you can check that the rear seat passengers have all fastened their safety belts and that nobody unfastens them during the trip. Pretensioners activate to tighten the belts within fractions of a second in the event of a collision. The front seat safety belts then release a little so that the driver and passenger are cushioned by the airbags in a controlled fashion.

Your Volvo can sense an impending collision and prepare the car's restraint systems to help provide optimal protection. Using advanced sensors, the car scans the road ahead and if the system spots an obstacle that could result in a collision, it prepares the airbags and safety belts for the expected crash force. This together with a robust body structure gives the best protection in a low or medium-severe frontal collision.

Adding to a relaxed driving experience in for example slow-moving city traffic, our standard-fitted City Safety technology looks out for standstill or slower vehicles ahead and brakes automatically if needed to help you avoid or mitigate a collision. This laser-based technology can sense an impending collision at speeds from 4 km/h up to 50km/h, day and night. In the first instance, City Safety prepares the brakes so that they respond faster when you press the pedal. And if you fail to brake, City Safety will apply the brakes for you and switch off the throttle to lessen the effects of a collision. Even better, if the difference in speed between your car and the one in front is less than 15km/h, City Safety can prevent a collision from happening in the first place. City Safety is activated as soon as you start your car, and ready to assist you in such an eventuality. City Safety is just one element of our complete approach to car safety. We call it IntelliSafe, and it’s a programme targeted at fulfilling our aim to create cars that will help you avoid collisions altogether – it includes such features as Lane Keeping Aid, Collision Warning with full auto brake, BLIS™, Adaptive Cruise Control, Park Assist and much more.

To help reduce the effects from an impact on unprotected road-users, the front of the vehicle is gently rounded, the headlamps are integrated flush with the body, and the bonnet is energy-absorbing to act as a crumple zone.

In an emergency situation, the large anti-lock ventilated disc brakes of your Volvo will make all the difference. And if you find yourself travelling down a mountain road with the need to brake often and hard, you’ll welcome our brakes’ resistance to fading. But since there is always a risk of fade, your Volvo is prepared for this, too, with Fading Brake Support. This system gradually builds hydraulic brake pressure so that you always have reassuring pedal feel. But what if you find yourself having to brake in an emergency, and perhaps not applying the necessary pressure to the pedal? Well, we’ve developed Hydraulic Brake Assist, which ensures that maximum braking pressure is applied hydraulically during a panic stop. Likewise, if you suddenly lift off the accelerator or sensors detect an obstacle in front of the car, Ready Alert Brakes instantly move the brake pads closer to the brake discs to reduce the braking distance. And Electronic Brake Distribution ensures that the right amount of braking goes to the front and rear of the your Volvo depending on where the load in the car is distributed and what the road conditions are.

One of the most vital safety advances of the past decade, Electronic Stability Control helps minimize the risk of wheel spin and skids at all speeds in all conditions. And helping to minimize understeer at all speeds, it also contributes to safer and more fun cornering characteristics. The system looks at factors like what direction the car is travelling, how fast the wheels are rotating and how much steering lock is applied. Using all this information, 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 can also prevent the wheels from locking during engine braking or when changing to a lower gear in slippery conditions, using Engine Drag Control. To further reduce the risk of losing traction in emergency manoeuvres and corner with high lateral forces, the function Advanced Stability Control senses the car's roll movement and lateral acceleration. But Automatic Stability Control is also about giving you a rewarding driving experience, too, so when you’re cornering enthusiastically the car will feel even more dynamically stable. Another feature that means you’ll experience sharper turn-in to corners, less understeer, more powerful acceleration and more fun behind the wheel is our Corner Traction Control with torque vectoring. 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. Our new 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 for a bit of performance driving, Electronic Stability Control has a Sport Mode. It cuts out the engine power reducing function and allows a controlled amount of rear wheel slip, as long as it senses that the driver is using the steering wheel and accelerator in a dynamic way and as long as it doesn’t go too far, in which case it will return to the normal Electronic Stability Control-function.

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.

To help protect passengers in a rollover situation, Our Roll-Over Protection System is activated by a sensor that monitors the vehicle’s lean angle. In the event of a rollover the safety belt pre-tensioners are activated for every seat to help keep passengers more securely in place. At the same time, the Inflatable Curtain deploys to help protect against secondary impacts.

We developed our unique SIPS™ side impact protection system to help protect where you and your passengers are most exposed in the event of a side-collision. The steel framework of the car – including the front seat frames – is designed and reinforced to help displace the impact of a side-collision away from the occupants to other parts of the car body and help prevent intrusion into the cabin. The extremely strong side structure contains ultra-high strength steel and softer grades of steel to help withstand a severe side impact – even with a larger vehicle. The Inflatable Curtain for all the outboard occupants and the front seat side airbags interact with the SIPS™ to help provide further protection. In the rear, SIPS™ and the Inflatable Curtain help protect the passengers in the outer rear seats including the third row.

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.

In a collision, our restraint technologies interact to help reduce the impact. The safety belts with pre-tensioners activate within fractions of a second in the event of a collision or rollover and tighten the belt to help keep the occupants restrained. The front seat safety belts then release a little so that the driver and passenger are cushioned by the airbags in a controlled manner. Helping to optimise protection, the dual-stage airbags adapt the level of inflation depending on the force of the collision. The driver’s airbag also interacts with the deformation of the collapsible steering column. Side airbags in the front seats help reduce the risk of serious injuries in a side collision. In a collision or rollover, the Inflatable Curtain helps protect the heads of both front and rear outboard occupants. It also stays inflated for several seconds to provide prolonged protection for subsequent impacts.

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

In a frontal collision, the driver and passenger airbags help protect your head, face and chest. But because no two collisions are the same, the airbags adapt the level of inflation depending on the force of the impact. The driver’s airbag also interacts with the deformation of the collapsible steering column. And if the impact is low enough that the airbags aren’t needed, the system will just deploy safety belt pre-tensioners if necessary.

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. It’s designed to obstruct taller passengers from sitting down without raising the restraint to its upright position. The outer head restraints can fold forward at the press of a button (optional) to further improve rear vision. In the folded position, they too are designed to obstruct passengers from sitting down without raising the restraints to their upright position.

Our advanced WHIPS™ whiplash injury protection system incorporates the complete backrests and head restraints to help protect the driver and front seat passenger from whiplash injury if the car is hit from behind. During a rear impact, the WHIPS™ system moves the entire seatback with the passenger or driver while the head restraint remains rigid to support the neck. A unique Volvo design.

To help prevent that passengers slide under and out of their safety belts in the event of a big impact, the seats feature anti-submarining guards which are specially shaped panels angled upwards at the forward edge inside the seats.

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

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.

The first-aid kit is conveniently carried in the load compartment and contains a variety of bandages. The contents are stored in different compartments to make it easier to find what you need in an emergency.

Driver Alert Control is a nice and thoughtful way to alert you if your driving behaviour shows signs of distraction or tiredness. Active at speeds over 65km/h, a camera looks at the road ahead while Driver Alert Control checks on your steering inputs to see how they compare to your regular driving style. If it senses that you’re driving more erratically, or there are signs that you’re drowsy or distracted, it’ll give you an audible warning and a message on the instrument panel suggesting you take a break.

With Road Sign Information you don't have to miss important road signs. A forward camera detects speed limit, "no overtaking", "no entry" and various types of supplementary signs. The actual sign is then displayed on the centre dial on the driver display – to help keep you constantly alert on current restrictions. If you want, Road Sign Information can also alert you with a visual warning if you exceed the speed limit, by flashing gently three times. This is easily set in the centre console menu.

BLIS™ is a Volvo innovation that helps alert you if a vehicle enters your blind spot or approaches fast from behind. The rear-mounted radar sensors cover a large area behind the car and work in various sorts of weather and light conditions, day or night. As a vehicle enters your blind spot or approaches rapidly from behind, this function can alert you via a warning light in the front door posts – left and right. Together with the door mirrors, which include a wide-angle mirror on the driver side, this helps you assess the feasibility of a lane change. BLIS™ is activated once the car exceeds 12 km/h and reacts to almost any type of vehicle, including motorcycles. Reversing out of a parking space or anywhere else with restricted vision at the sides can be a tricky business. To make these manoeuvres easier and less stressful our Cross Traffic Alert uses the rear radar sensors to alert you of crossing traffic from the sides. You'll be alerted by an audible warning from the left or right rear loudspeaker and by a graphic warning in the centre display. Alerting for approaching vehicles as well as for pedestrians and cyclists, Cross Traffic Alert is especially helpful in tight and crowded areas where the side view might be limited.

If you should begin to veer off-course, our Lane Keeping Aid technology can alert you or, if necessary, intervene with gentle steering support to help you stay in the lane. This function uses an advanced high resolution camera to register the lane markings and help monitor the car’s position on the road. If you get close to a lane marking, the system will gently steer the car back to help keep the car in the lane. And should you nevertheless unintentionally cross the lane marking you'll be alerted by haptic vibrations in the steering wheel or a warning sound. When you intentionally cross a lane marker using the turn indicators, Lane Keeping Aid is not activated. The system operates at speeds between 65 km/h and 200 km/h.

Your Volvo can alert you and intervene automatically in case of an imminent collision with a vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist in front of you. Active at speeds above 4 km/h, our collision avoidance technology can give you audible and visible warnings if you’re too close to a vehicle in front or if there are pedestrians or cyclists in your path. If you don’t react and a collision is imminent, full auto-braking is engaged to help you avoid or mitigate an impact. Within a range of 150 metres, a radar sensor behind the grille continuously monitors the distance to the vehicle driving in front of you and a digital camera behind the windscreen determines what objects are in front of you. During daylight it can also detect standing or moving pedestrians or cyclists travelling in the same direction. If a pedestrian or a cyclist unexpectedly swerves out in front of your car or if a vehicle suddenly brakes (or is stationary) and Collision Warning senses that a collision is likely to happen, it will prompt you to act with a flashing warning light on the windscreen along with an audible alarm. Moreover, this technology supports driver-initiated braking by pre-charging the brakes to minimise the braking distance. If you don’t react to the warning and a collision is imminent, the car immediately brakes with full braking force.

Helping you to maintain your preset gap to vehicles in front at all speeds up to 200 km/h, the Adaptive Cruise Control is a supportive partner for a more relaxed driving experience on any journey. In slow moving city traffic, the Adaptive Cruise Control stop and go function* with ECO mode automatically adapts your speed to the vehicle in front while helping you save fuel by maintaining smoother progress with less need for surges of acceleration. From standstill, a press of a button or the accelerator is all it takes to make your car smoothly tail the vehicle in front. At speeds over 30 km/h, just select the desired speed and the minimum time gap to the vehicle in front. When the radar sensor detects a slower vehicle in front, the speed automatically adapts to that vehicle. And when the road is clear, the car resumes the selected speed. If Adaptive Cruise Control is disengaged and a vehicle in front comes too close, the distance alert function activates a warning light in the lower section of the windscreen to help you keep a proper distance. Whenever you want, you can also select conventional cruise control by pressing the Adaptive Cruise Control button for a few seconds.

*The Queue Assist and stop and go function from 0 to 30 km/h requires Geartronic™ automatic transmission.

Journeys after dark have become a lot more enjoyable – and safer – thanks to our Active High Beam, available as an option. With this system, you don’t need to keep flicking between dipped and full beam, which is not only annoying – according to several studies, it’s also a major cause of night-time accidents. Employing camera technology, AHB recognises the headlight beam of on-coming vehicles and automatically shifts between high and low beam to optimise your vision without dazzling other drivers. And because the system is intelligent, the high beam shuts off when you enter a city, but if you drive past an illuminated sign – say a filling station or supermarket – it stays on so you can see what’s coming up. This means you benefit from safety as well as convenience.

Statistics show that in half of all rear-end collisions the driver at fault doesn’t brake at all. Active at speeds above 4 km/h, our collision avoidance technology can give you audible and visible warnings if you’re too close to a vehicle in front or if there are pedestrians or cyclists in your path. If you don’t react and a collision is imminent, full auto-braking is engaged to help you avoid or mitigate an impact. Within a range of 150 metres, a radar sensor behind the grille continuously monitors the distance to the vehicle driving in front of you and a digital camera behind the windscreen determines what objects are in front of you. During daylight it can also detect standing or moving pedestrians or cyclists. If a pedestrian or a cyclist unexpectedly swerves out in front of your car or if a vehicle suddenly brakes (or is stationary) and Collision Warning senses that a collision is likely to happen, it will prompt you to act with a flashing warning light on the windscreen along with an audible alarm. Moreover, this technology supports driver-initiated braking by pre-charging the brakes to reduce the braking distance. If you don’t react to the warning and a collision is imminent, the car immediately brakes with full braking force.

It can happen so easily; you’re on a long motorway trip, or momentarily distracted and you wander briefly out of your lane. This puts you in danger of collision, or of simply going off the road on your own. It doesn’t bear thinking about, but your Volvo can help with the Lane Departure Warning system. When you’re driving over 65km/h, a camera looks at the lane markings and can tell if you wander out of your lane. If you do, it will give you an audible warning but if you use indicators to signal a lane change, LDW will stay silent.

In the event of an emergency manoeuvre, our Roll Stability Control (RSC) can step in to help prevent the vehicle from rolling over. It features a gyroscopic sensor that registers the vehicle’s lean angle and rollover risk. If required, the Roll Stability Control will cut engine power or brake one or more of the wheels just enough to reduce the centrifugal force and help regain balance.

With our Tyre Pressure Monitoring System you'll be instantly alerted if one of your tyres is low on pressure. Active at 30 km/h or more, it helps increase your safety as well as ensuring maintained comfort and handling characteristics. The system uses sensors mounted in each tyre valve.

At speeds of up to 30 km/h, the optional Cornering Light illuminates the area in which you’re turning at up to 15 degrees around the car for safer manoeuvring – for instance if you’re turning into a small road or driving through a narrow gateway at night.

One of the most annoying things about night driving is the blinding glare from other cars’ headlights. Our generously dimensioned door mirrors are made of chromatic glass that automatically dims to diminish glare from traffic behind you. The mirrors use an internal sensor to monitor light conditions and recognise glare from headlights. When this is detected, the inner and outer rear view mirrors will darken simultaneously to the exact degree necessary. Once the source of the glare disappears, the glass returns to its normal state automatically. Other functions include an optional built-in compass in the inner rear view mirror and ground lighting as well as indicators embedded in the sides of the outer mirrors.

You know when you’re driving down a winding country road at night and the headlights don’t quite show you everything coming up around the next bend? We wondered, what if your headlights could swivel like eyes, so your car could help you see around corners? So we developed Active Bending Lights – with motorised lamps that can turn up to 15 degrees in either direction – that follow the way you steer. And by using extra bright Dual Xenon lights (low beam and high beam), you get a 90 per cent boost to your vision round bends at night. This means you can gain a further 45 metres for braking. You can also experience highly effective low-beam illumination on narrow, winding roads and extremely powerful high beams on the motorway – a sensor disengages the adaptive function during daylight to reduce wear. It’s a very clever system, too – depending on the load in the car, the headlights self-adjust to maintain the correct angle to the road, even during hard acceleration or braking.

Integrated front and rear side-marker lamps help alert other drivers to your car’s presence.

To provide far better visibility in the rain, your Volvo’s front side windows help repel water as you drive. The hydrophobic surface treatment turns water into small drops that will be blown away by the force of the wind. This also gives you the benefit of less ice or frost in winter conditions. This option is offered in combination with laminated windows.

To help protect passengers in an oncoming car with bumpers that are lower, there's a cross member integrated low down in the front structure. In an impact, this cross member is designed to help activate the other car’s own crumple zones and other safety features to help reduce the risk of injury. It also works in a side impact with a smaller car.

We created the Volvo On Call smartphone app to make your everyday life a little less complicated. This app gives you a host of clever solutions that allow you to access and control your Volvo remotely from your smartphone, iPad or a wearable device such as Apple Watch, Android Wear and Microsoft Band 2. The Volvo On Call app can also be used on a Windows 10 based PC or tablet. It's even compatible with Flic buttons that allow you to connect single tasks, like pre-heating your car, to separate wireless buttons you can keep anywhere you want. Whenever you want, you can check the remaining distance to empty tank, the fuel level, average fuel consumption, the outdoor temperature at your car, if the doors are locked and much more. And if you've left the car unlocked, you will be reminded and can lock it (or unlock it) remotely just using your smartphone. You can conveniently create your own driving journals and download data to Excel. You can also see your car's location on a map and make it honk and flash if you need to locate it in a huge parking lot. Further facilitating your travel planning, you can even send a destination directly to the Sensus Navigation system in your car. It can also connect with your personal calendar and allow you to send meeting appointment destinations to the navigation system for guidance. Another everyday luxury you will enjoy with Volvo On Call, is the possibility to control the climate in your car using your smartphone. To warm up or cool down the cabin before travelling, you can remotely start the engine and control the climate system. And if your car is equipped with a parking heater, you can start the heater remotely via your smartphone for a comfortable climate without using the engine. Volvo On Call also enables you to create a strong, stable internet connection via the roof antenna. You simply turn your Volvo into a Wi-Fi hotspot – anybody that shares your ride can easily connect his or her smartphone, laptop or tablet to the internet. And whether you've got a flat tire, have a breakdown or get into an accident, Volvo On Call is there to send assistance anywhere. Push the Volvo On Call button in your car (or use your smartphone app) to speak to an operator who can dispatch assistance to your GPS location. Or in an emergency that calls for help right away, simply press the SOS button. In an accident that activates the car's airbags or safety belt pre-tensioners or if you have run into a large animal, your Volvo alerts a trained operator to contact the car and send emergency service. Volvo On Call can also alert you to an attempted break-in. And if the car is stolen, the Volvo On Call operator can use the GPS in your Volvo to track it.

With our integrated child booster cushions you'll easily provide safe and comfortable seating for children that have grown out of the conventional child seat. The children will be seated at the correct height for the safety belts to help provide optimum protection, while they can enjoy a better view during the ride. Our integrated child booster cushion features a choice of two heights, so smaller children can sit higher for a better view out. And that adjustable height also means that the safety belts are always positioned to work effectively. That, and the safety belt load limiter, which is adapted to a child with this option, will reduce the strain on a child’s neck and chest during an impact. In a side impact, the booster seat-equipped Volvo benefits from an Inflatable Curtain that has been extended downward to improve head protection for smaller, or younger children. And when you don’t need them, the booster seats disappear into the seat cushions.

The passenger airbag is designed to help protect an adult in a frontal collision in case of collision. But if a rearward-facing child seat is positioned in the front passenger seat, the airbag must first be disengaged to avoid the risk of serious injury. The airbag cut-off switch is positioned on the passenger end of the dashboard and can only be accessed with the door open. When the airbag is switched off, you’re notified by a message on the roof console display.

The power child lock enables you to conveniently lock the rear doors and rear power windows from the driver’s seat and prevent them from being opened from the inside.

The alarm is connected to the doors, bonnet, boot and ignition. It also reacts to movement inside the car or the breaking of a window. A level sensor can be added to deter thieves from jacking up the car to steal your wheels or tow it away.

In an emergency, you can use the panic button on the remote control to attract attention. Press and hold the button for at least 3 seconds or press it twice to activate the hazard lights and the horn.

A touch of a button on the remote control or the optional Personal Car Communicator unlocks the doors and bootlid. Use the personal settings menu to decide if the remote unlocks the driver’s door first, or all doors at the same time. You can also close or open all windows (including the sunroof if you have one) and unlock the boot separately.
