Learn about the Preventive safety in the brand new XC90:
Active Dual Xenon HeadlightsCompared to conventional halogen headlights, Active Dual Xenon technology helps to expand your vision range by about 230%. And using motorized lamps that turn up to 15 degrees in either direction this technology gives a 90% boost to your vision around bends in the road at night. You can enjoy highly effective low beam illumination on narrow, winding roads and extremely powerful full beams on the highway. A sensor disengages the adaptive function during daylight.
Anti-locking brakes with Emergency Brake Assistance (EBA)Generously dimensioned anti-locking, ventilated disc brakes help to ensure a short stopping distance in all situations. You can brake as hard as you like as you steer clear of trouble. Furthermore, they withstand tough use without fading. EBA detects an attempted emergency braking and, when necessary, provides added assistance to bring the vehicle to a standstill in the shortest possible distance. Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) distributes the braking effect between the front and rear wheels to achieve optimal results according to load and driving conditions.
LED Daytime Running LightsThe LED daytime running lights integrated in the front spoiler not only add to the looks of your Volvo – reducing energy consumption, these efficient design details also contribute to lower CO2 emissions.
Dynamic Stability and Traction Control (DSTC) By helping prevent fishtails, spinouts, and rollovers, stability control technology like DSTC has been described as one of the most vital safety advances of the past decade. At the core of DSTC, sensors register the car's direction and roll rate. The system compares this with steering wheel movements as well as the actual rotation of the car's wheels. DSTC is able to detect a potential skid and help counteract this by reducing the engine's power output, or braking on one or more wheels.
Rear Fog LightThis high-intensity rear fog light helps make your Volvo more visible to drivers approaching from behind in bad weather.
Roll Stability Control (RSC)In the event of an emergency maneuver, Volvo's Roll Stability Control (RSC) can step in to help prevent the vehicle from rolling over. It features a gyroscopic sensor that registers the vehicle's lean angle and rollover risk. If required, RSC will cut engine power or brake one or more of the wheels just enough to reduce the centrifugal force and help regain balance.
Side Positioning LightsIntegrated front and rear side positioning lights help alert other drivers to your car's presence.
