Volvo XC70
Known for safety

Volvo XC70 is an all-wheel drive vehicle with instant traction control and many other safety features.
There are plenty of acronyms that can describe those features: Dynamic Stability and Traction Control (DSTC), Whiplash Protection Seating System (WHIPS),
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) and Inflatable Side Curtains (IC).
Known for its safety, this Volvo has side impact air bags for driver and front passenger, Hill Descent Control and front fog lights, to name a few.
Volvo’s three-point safety belt, now standard on every car today and credited with saving more than a million lives, celebrated its golden anniversary this year.
Patented in 1959, the three-point safety belt is just one component of a much larger safety system within the car, all working together to help prevent or mitigate a collision.
Comfort features include dual-zone electronic climate control and a high performance audio system.
XC features unique roof rails and 17-inch alloy wheels.
XC70 has a six-cylinder, 3.0-liter engine with 281 horsepower. XC70 gets an estimated 15/22 miles per gallon city/highway.
