This is an adaptation of the first three point seat belt introduced by Volvo in 1959.

New Features

Increased Safety

Thoroughly Tested

Still Improving

[{"selector":"#anim-0c987545-84e4-462d-8853-dbaec343e27e","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Through over-the-air (OTA) software updates, Volvo can refine how the system interprets new crash data, occupant profiles, and environmental conditions and improve over time.

Coming Soon!
