IntelliSafe—driver support
IntelliSafe is Volvo's philosophy regarding vehi-cle safety. It encompasses a number of systems,both standard and optional, that are designed tohelp make driving and traveling in a Volvo safer.
Support
Systems that help make driving safer are an inte-gral part of IntelliSafe. These include optionalfeatures such as Adaptive Cruise Control* thathelps maintain a set distance to a vehicle ahead,Park Assist Pilot*, which assists in parking thevehicle, Cross Traffic Alert*, Blind SpotInformation*, etc.

Accident prevention
Systems such as City Safety are designed toautomatically apply the brakes in situations inwhich the driver does not have time to react.Lane Keeping Aid* alerts the drive if the vehicleinadvertently crosses a lane's/road's side markerline.

Protection
The vehicle is equipped with e.g., seat belt pre-tensioners that pull the seat belts taut in criticalsituations when there is a collision risk andnumerous airbags designed to help provide cush-ioning if certain types of collisions should occur.
