Ok, I don't get it. "City Safety is not designed to react to objects smaller than cars, such as people, bicycles or animals." I suppose those 05 pylons were an exception? I've never seen neither a square balloon-shaped, or pylon shaped vehicle. Neither of those are similiar in size or shape to another vehicle.
This would be perfect for school runs, which are in these slow speed and the drivers would be distracted by kids, but this would reduce acidents alot I think. This is the kind of car people use for the school run.
People 4x4s in belief they are safe. They should really be buying a Volvo 4x4

Some crap on the car that can go wrong. It will be a recall in the future on these cars I bet . Malfuctuion can happen, the brakes will engage while the car going 60 causing more accidents than preventing them .
@1968DodgePolara sorry guy but abs does that by itself (toyota carolla) seen it a dozen times already, maybe you should research things instead of being lazy and complaining, besides, maybe an asteroid can fall on that Mopar you have in the driveway.
Yeah, it was the first to have the auto-stop saftey procaution, standard. In other words, other car manufactuerers have already come up with this, but it was optional to have it.
@ChrisBennett18 no, it will not, it's like hitting the brake on cruse control, it disengages. however it happens very quickly. if you have any questions you can easily find answers to them, think about it, they want you to easily understand the technology so you won't be afraid of it. so you buy it, so look for an unbiased place, but you can still find good information from the manufacturer themselves.
i think the only thing this is good for is when u are in bumper to bumper traffic. You hardly ever normally go 20 mph regularly, u ussualy go 30 mph or higher.
unfortunately theres dumb people out there who may not slow down, but i'm pretty sure if they buy this brand new car which a new feature, they're probly smart enough to listen to what they say at the end (THIS DOESN'T REPLACE DRIVER ATTENTION)
Honestly... how is that helpful at all? 2-18 miles per hour, what the heck is that. It doesn't even work to save pedestrians at all. That is such a stupid feature. How about people use their freaking eyes and commen sence! Works for me

this is nice but what happens if you still hitting the gas will it still brake???
ChrisBennett18 2 years ago
yes it will still brake, it is drive by wire, don't forget. it's all programmed and tested long ago before is put into production,
I'm not facinated by this car, I probably never buy it...I just like the technology, And I like Volvo because they stick to their concept.
