Driver assistance systems

Our driver assistance systems provide alerts and support to you, to help you drive with confidence wherever you go. Explore some of the systems available.

Collision avoidance

Intelligent systems can detect and help you avoid a collision with other vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists. The systems support you with audible, visible and brake pulse warnings. And if the system detects that a collision is imminent or that you have turned into the path of an oncoming vehicle in an intersection, the car can brake automatically.*

Lane keeping aid

Lane keeping aid adds convenience and safety to motorway driving. If you're about to cross a lane marking without using the indicator, it will gently steer your car back into the lane. If this steering intervention is not enough or you keep steering across the lane markings, you'll be alerted with vibrations in the steering wheel. Constantly monitoring your position on the road, lane keeping aid provides smooth support at speeds from 40 mph. ***

***Lane Keeping Aid provides driver assistance on roads with visible markings. System limits (including speed & distance) apply. Driver must pay attention to the road and retain control.

Run-off road mitigation

Run-off road mitigation helps prevent you from accidentally leaving the road. If you stray across the outer lane marking, it will help you steer the car back on the road. If needed, this Volvo safety innovation can also activate the brakes to help keep you on the road. Run-off road mitigation operates at speeds between 40 mph and 87 mph.

Cross traffic alert with auto brake

Driver assist with cross traffic alert is designed to help cover your back when reversing out of a parking space, with warnings for approaching vehicles and auto brake for imminent collision.**

**Cross Traffic Alert is an optional feature. Activation required. Only activates if the car rolls backwards or is in reverse. System limits (including speed and distance) apply – brake activation is only active at lower speeds. Performance may be affected by the weather. Driver assistance only – driver must pay attention to the road and retain control.

Blind Spot Information System (BLIS)

The Blind Spot Information System with steer assist can help ease tension in busy traffic with alerts and active support, guiding you back on track. When a vehicle enters your blind spot or approaches rapidly in a lane on either side of your car, BLIS can alert you via a light in the left or right door mirror. ***

Surround view camera

Four high-definition cameras give you a 360° bird's eye parking view so you can enter or exit any confined space with confidence.

Connected safety

Cloud-based communication allows you to receive and share road condition information. Real-time data helps you, and others, prepare for what's ahead via a symbol in the driver display or the optional head-up display. You will also be alerted if another connected vehicle on the road ahead of you detects slippery conditions. ***

Features depicted may not be standard or available for all styles, engine options and regions. Volvo Cars' safety features complement safe driving practices and are not intended to enable or encourage distracted, aggressive, or otherwise unsafe or illegal driving. Ultimately, the driver is responsible for safe operation of the vehicle at all times.* Vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists moving in the same direction of the car can be detected under certain speeds and in certain conditions; driver remains responsible for safe driving at all times.**Cross Traffic Alert is an optional feature.
