Posted on September 2, 2015

New Delhi, 02 September 2015: When it comes to safety, Volvo Cars remain miles ahead of competition. One of the safest cars from their stable, the Volvo XC90 achieved top ratings today and was awarded five stars in its 2015 Euro NCAP tests. The XC90 with standard City Safety technology scored one hundred per cent in the Safety Assist category, and stood out as the first car from any manufacturer to achieve the maximum score in the two Autonomous Emergency Braking tests AEB City & AEB Interurban.

With Volvo Cars’ Vision 2020, the Swedish carmaker aims to deliver cars in which no one is seriously injured or killed by the year 2020. The XC90’s five star results in Euro NCAP’s testing is an indication of their progress made in this direction. In fact, the XC90 already features advanced pedestrian protection functionality that independent safety regulators have yet to include in their testing protocols; demonstrating the Swedish carmaker’s dominance in the field of car safety innovation.
