At the core of every car we make, state-of-the-art technology helps support
the driver and protect the occupants. And to further enhance the Volvo safety
experience, there’s a range of supplementary safety technology – for more
performance and peace of mind.
SAFET Y Preventive
Dynamic Stability and Traction Control (DSTC)
Dual Xenon Headlights with Active Bending Lights (ABL)*
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, a gyroscope senses the car’s direction and 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.
In addition to improving illumination by about using Dual Xenon light technology, the
Active Bending Lights give a boost to your vision round bends at night. Controlled by
microprocessors, the motorised lamps turn up to 15 degrees in either direction when
driving – reliably lighting up your chosen path. A twilight sensor disengages the
adaptive function during daylight to extend its life span.
*Optional on 3.2 and V8, Included in the Dynamic Package for R-DESIGN
