This is relative. Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi also do a good job in safety. Safety depends not only on the car, but also on the person driving it.
Volvo safety is reflected in these aspects:
1. Birdcage carriage
In the event of a collision, the quality of the carriage will largely determine In order to improve the safety of car owners, if the cabin can help the passengers in the car withstand the impact force, safety belts, airbags and other facilities can better protect the passengers.
For Volvo's carriage, it uses what is known as the "birdcage carriage". This carriage rigidly connects the chassis to the carriage frame, and uses many frames to resist impact forces, and is paired with special Laminated glass can better protect passenger safety. Although this design is not unique to Volvo now, it was used by Volvo relatively early.
2. Airbags
Volvo’s research on airbags is very in-depth. In terms of airbag types, in addition to the airbags for the main and passenger positions, Volvo also has additional configurations. Airbags such as air curtains are installed to protect the safety of passengers as much as possible. In addition, in terms of response time, Volvo also has a relatively large number of sensors, and the airbags will deploy in a relatively timely manner when impacted.
Three-point safety belts
Safety belts are already standard on all cars, but before the 1960s, car companies did not have the awareness to equip them with safety belts. , and Volvo is also one of the first companies to apply three-point seat belts to cars. From this aspect, Volvo's research on car safety can indeed be said to be one of the best.
4. Establishing a traffic accident investigation department
For Volvo, they established a traffic accident investigation department in 1970 to collect real traffic accidents and conduct research at the same time. In this way, more targeted improvements can be made based on actual accidents to further ensure vehicle safety.
