@speedster797 The volvo system is very intelligent and it knows the dimension of the car and only acts when there is risk to collision, at higher speeds it also activates but only reduces the impact which is better than non- braking before crash
@prayb4udie There was an Amazon/120 series from the '60s, some 140 series cars from the '70s, perhaps a 240 series from the '80s, a 440 and 480 from the mid to late '80s, an 850, what looked like an S40, an XC70, and an XC90... I probably missed some.
I tested pedestrian safety on the new S60 during a Volvo VIP night, it was awesome (with an inflatable dummy, not a real person of course). I own a XC60, with city safety.
Will Volvo consider to add same device at the rear windshield so that, when a car from back is about to hit , Volvo can activate certain kind of safety devices for more effective protection ? Thanks. P.S.: I posted some volvo youtubes in some car forum for potential buyers's awareness of Volvo brand
480 was rare, some folks love it, but it was the worst Volvo ever. (that means, its just an average car)
They rusted around the foldable headlights, and those front light units also had electrical problems. Everything else taken from the 440/460 was just perfect ;)
28 secs was a volvo 480......i used to own one - nice cars - beautiful design but unfortunately i got rid when the electrical probs started with the computerised dash.
Now, Listen! You're all over reacting about this. This is the 1st car in the world to stop it's self and is affordable. give them some slack if there are faults in the system! You create one that not only is up to snuff with the IIHS and the NTSB, but with European Union and Asian restrictions! People shouldn't complain that it's stupid or not safe. IT IS MADE FOR SPEEDS UNDER 20 MPH, hence the name (perfect for cities like NYC). So, if you have a better system on hand, contact me about this.
Midnightassasin comes up with such genius thoughts. Yes, let's not make a car that can withstand high impacts, (because they will just do some stupid sh_t). Let's build yugos so that people will be scared to drive.
this is a great thing to have on all vehicles and I wish it was already on all of the vehicles now because my wife was hit in the rear end at 50 mph couple yrs ago by a woman tending to her kids at that time of the accident .
my wife survived but the ford focus did not but the ford focus did what it was suppose to do.
so please ev1 out there watch what u are doing when u r driving out there cause u can KILL a loved 1 and hang up ur cell ph's while driving and don't drink and drive PLEASE!!!!
good thing your not an engineer, im sure the computer is designed/programmed to not only notice the object in front, but to also plug in the objects speed vs. the car your in. it plugs that data into an algorithm, and according to specific results, it then decides if it needs to stop.
Some of you need a wake up call. The car only stops when the radar in front detects the car in front. (Not the side) And it only works at low speeds not the highway. I should know, I just drove one.
Really cool! Could you upload some of these crash test videos on YouTube? I always wanted to see some crash test videos of my 1992 240, as well as my 1998 V70
This is channel is sponsidered Volvo, Volvo made that commercial, the vehicles in it are all Volvos. It doesn't take a whole lot of common sense to figure out that the crash test videos are from Volvos' archives!

Idiot. There is NO steel around the headlights and it was built BEFORE the 440/460. And they hardly ever fail.
markbeijert 2 years ago 2
Dude... you don't know a thing about that car..
1. The "places" around the headlight were not made from metal but from fibreglass, fibreglass can't rust!
2. The 480 was introduced in 1986, the 440 in '88 and the 460 in 1992!
But yes, it was one of the worst Volvo's ever build.
