Volvo EX30 endures a side impact crash test with an EX90
Before Volvo launched the EX90, the Swedish automaker — already known as a pioneer in safety — repeatedly stressed how much work it had done to raise the bar for safety in its new electric SUV. Almost every new release included lines like, «The standard safety in the Volvo EX90 is also higher than any Volvo car before it,» and «The Volvo EX90 has an invisible shield of safety enabled by our latest sensing technology, inside and outside.» But these focused on the car's electronic suite of sensors and cameras watching everything from the road ahead and behind to the driver's state of fatigue. The company did the same during the launch of the EX30, writing that its new compact electric vehicle protects all occupants «through state-of-the-art restraint technology, as well as top-notch structural design that fulfills our ambitious in-house safety requirements — designed to prepare our cars for various real-world scenarios.»
