Volvo XC60 Protection Systems

We all know that the Volvos are built like tanks and packed full of safety features. Take a look at the 3 videos below that show the different features that are in the Volvo XC60. In the Crumple Zones video notice how the engine is mounted transversely and that the outer body structure is softer steel that deforms to absorb more of the energy. The Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS) videos show how the seats move to protect the occupants.
