The agile chassis of your Volvo is designed to inspire confidence – in the city or on the open roads. You're in command, while the high ground clearance further enhances your comfort and all-road capacity. Contributing to an energetic drive, the front suspension helps provide safe and predictable driving characteristics and responsive steering. The sophisticated, multi-link-design rear suspension contributes to safe, comfortable and entertaining driving characteristics. The extensive use of lightweight aluminum chassis components contributes to ride comfort as well as agile handling.
Our AWD technology with Instant Traction™ gives you an edge by increasing driving stability and traction – on all road surfaces and in all weathers. As conditions change, wheels with the best grip get the most power to optimize your drive. Under normal conditions, practically all the power is distributed to the front wheels to minimize fuel consumption without compromising on stability. And when needed, up to 50% of the engine's power can be distributed to the rear wheels. At a standstill, full all-wheel drive is always engaged to prepare for maximum traction. This also facilitates take-off in slippery conditions or if you, for example, are pulling a boat trailer up a ramp.
Hill Start Assist allows you to start uphill or downhill without the vehicle moving while you move your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator. It keeps the brakes applied for a short period after you've released the brake pedal.
Skid plate with hidden tailpipes gives a robust yet stylish impression from behind.
Dark tinted glass in the rear windows enhances privacy. It also helps reduce UV radiation and keeps passenger compartment temperatures down in hot, sunny conditions.
These smoothly integrated aluminum roof rails in satin silk metal finish further enhance the dynamic design of your Volvo and make it easy to utilize the load-carrying system. They're aerodynamically designed to keep down wind noise and fuel consumption.
Adding to everyday comfort, the front center armrest features a spacious storage compartment with space for, for example‚ a full-size tissue box. A removable trash bin with a lid helps you maintain a fresh interior, and there's also a storage area for your smartphone. For your mobile devices, there is also a 12 V power socket and one or two USB ports, while two cupholders keep your refreshments within easy reach.
Stylish, practical and designed to perfectly fit the vehicle's interior design, these easily installed textile floor mats add to the comfort and snug character of your Volvo. And helping to keep the interior in good condition, they provide effective dirt protection and form a tight seal against the floor. They are also easy to remove for cleaning.
Control many of the vehicle's functions intuitively while driving without taking your hands off the steering wheel. The right steering wheel remote controls allow you to operate the audio system, phone, messages, menu navigation and trip computer. The voice control is activated at the touch of a button. You can control the vehicle's driver assistance functions using the left-side steering wheel buttons.
Optimizing style and comfort, our standard-installed Comfort seats combine the best of renowned Volvo ergonomics with modern Scandinavian design. Providing almost endless adjustment possibilities, you can easily customize the front seats of your Volvo to fit your body perfectly. Seat height is conveniently adjusted using a power control.
This feature can assist in heavy traffic and when backing up. When a vehicle enters your blind spot or approaches quickly from behind, you can be alerted by a light in the door mirrors. And if you drift into the path of another vehicle, your Volvo can help steer you back into your lane. To help make parking safer, it can also alert you of crossing traffic when you're backing up out of a parking space with limited rear visibility. It can even brake for you if there's a risk of collision. BLIS™ and Cross Traffic Alert is part of our driver awareness technologies. Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the vehicle is controlled – these features are only supportive functions. All described functions may not be available in all markets.
This feature assists you at speeds above 65 km/h (40 mph). If you're about to cross a lane marking without using the indicator, the vehicle will gently steer you back into the lane. If the steering intervention is not enough or you keep steering across the lane markings, you'll be alerted with vibrations in the steering wheel. Please note: The driver is always responsible for how the vehicle is controlled – this is only a supportive function.
We believe that the vehicle should bear the brunt of any collision, not the people inside it. That's why we've developed our vehicles so that they offer legendary protection, not just from front and rear impacts, but also from side-on collisions. The steel framework of the vehicle – and that includes the front seat frames – has been designed to help displace the impact of a side-on collision away from the people inside and prevent intrusion into the cabin. And because we understand that an impact with a larger vehicle is a possibility on busy roads, the extremely strong side structure contains ultra-high-strength steel to help withstand a severe impact. We have even taken into account the side windows – the Inflatable Curtain works in conjunction with SIPS™ and the side airbags to protect people in the front seats. In the rear, SIPS™ and the Inflatable Curtain help protect the passengers in the outer rear seats.
