I was 7 years old when my parents bought there 2007 Volvo XC90 3.2. I grew up in the back seat, starting in the booster seat then to the driver seat when I turned 16 the first car I drove was the XC90. We have over 456,000KM and never had any problems. I’m 19 now and I work at the Volvo dealership my parents bought there Volvo from new! I’m an apprentice Technician and I’m extremely proud to work on Volvo’s because the Safety and quality of these vehicles are the best in the world. It’s amazing that 11 years later I’m working on my parents car!!! That’s the true meaning of “Volvo for Life” No other car manufacturer cares more about safety than Volvo. Thank you Volvo, I became a apprentice Technician because Volvo cars got me interested in becoming a technician when I was 7! ❤️
So true, that's brilliant! Am a proud owner of 3 Volvos in our family. Saab used to be another caring manufacturer which obviously ended badly because caring hardly fits in business...
Hello Gino! Thank you for sharing your story with us. It makes us proud to hear that we've been a part of your life for so many years, and we hope that we will continue being a part for many years to come. We need people like you - forward-thinking minds from all over the world - to help us stay at the forefront in shaping the future of transportation technology. Thank you again for sharing this with us, and have a lovely day. Kind regards Volvo Cars
My first car was a 2005 Volvo XC90 but the first one I drove was my Dad’s 2007 XC90 3.2. The moment I drove that car, I became hooked! I have had some Ford’s and Chevy’s in between my current S60. They were not bad cars at all, but I am so much more appreciative of the Volvo engineering. Thank you Gino Deluca for sharing your Volvo story!
Shelby Cobra that’s awesome!!!! I forgot to mention we’ve driven our Volvo on more than 2000km+ Road trips! We have driven this Volvo to New York, Cleveland, Chicago, Kentucky, Tennessee, Washington, North Carolina, and Georgia. We've driven 12 times to Florida. My dad drove us 22 hours straight with only food and washroom breaks! Lol good thing our xc90 has the built in DVD players 🙌We have also drove all the way to the East Coast! My best memory is driving to the first KFC in Kentucky!!!! 🍗I’m from Toronto so we drive the XC90 down to Florida every year!!! The car likes the warm weather, when it’s winter at home 😂 the Volvo gets a vacation as well!
A few years back my grandmother got into a severe role over in her Xc60. It happened in the middle of the night in winter in the woods. She managed to crawl out of the sunroof. She rolled down a 100 ish foot ravine and walked away. And once On Call sos kicked in she already was far from the car, and they thought she died because no one answered. The paramedics and officers did see her footsteps back up to the road which was the sign that she was alive. Now most of our family drives Volvos. Thank you Volvo, thank you for letting my grandmother still be here to this day.
Thank you for sharing your story with us. It must have been a scary experience for your family and we are very sorry to hear about it. Cars can be easily replaced, the most important thing is that your grandmother is okay. Safety is one of our core values and we work hard every day to provide the safest cars in the world. To hear the appreciation from people like yourself gives us the motivation and energy to keep working on important things like safety.
I was probably around 10 years old back then, but I can still remember what clothes I was wearing and the song that was playing on the radio that day (Cher). And the look on my dads face when he told me that the car was completely destroyed while my brother remained unharmed. It's hard to think about how things could have turned out, had he not been driving a Volvo. Love you big brother!
@@VolvoCars If I may, I have an '04 XC70; 2 favorite features, the extra braking when going downhill, and the Stabilizer bars. Plus, of course Boron Steel in the A & B pillars and in the SIPS too. It's my first Volvo . . but Not My Last Volvo!! Volvo for LIFE.
Volvo Cars, I can say I relate. I was 14 when I was a passenger and my mom was driving, in her Silver Volvo S40 T4 when we were slammed into by a van while at traffic lights. The driver had fallen asleep. It was over in a second but it felt like a lifetime. The impact was truly horrific. The WHIPS system meant both me and my mom walked away from the car with just a few bruises from seatbelts and a headache from the noise. The driver of the van had to be airlifted to hospital, he did survive. I remember that car well. It was only 3 years old and owned from new but as she drove all over the UK for work, it took everything that could be thrown at it. When it was hit, it had covered over 140k miles......she replaced it when it was written off by the insurance company......with a brand new V40 in black. Since then my family has continued to enjoy the Volvo brand, moms current car is a beautiful 2020 XC90, and I am now the soon to be owner of a new XC40 when it arrives from the factory. I'm grateful to this day, that we were in a Volvo. Thank you for making the occupant the subject of your obsession with safety.
Hi Steven, thank you very much for sharing your story with us. We are glad to hear that everyone was okay after the accident. Thank you for been a loyal Volvo fan!
I survived a car wreck back in 1988. I was driving a 1978 Volvo 262 Coupe by Bertone. Senior driver ran a red light and crashed into the right fender. The impact spun my 262 and I ended on top of the sidewalk impacting a small utility pole with the front end. My 262 was a total loss but I was alive to see another thanks to god and my 262 safety features. . I was wearing my seatbelt and it held me in my seat. After that accident I’ve been driving nothing but Volvos. 1989 Volvo 240DL (1990-2000) Volvo s40 (2000-2015) and currently 2016 Volvo v60.
In December last year Volvo saved the life of me and my grandparents. We were driving at around 90 km/h. The car in front of us braked, without any reason. Our XC40 automatically braked as hard as it could. We missed the car in front of us by inches. However we got rear-ended with 70 km/h. Without Volvos safety systems, we would be not here anymore. Around 3 Months later the XC40 was back, after a repair cost of 15000 Euros, we get it back. My grandpa sad, that’s the best car I’ve ever drove the last 50 years since I’ve got my drivers license. Today I’m 17 years old, and my biggest wish is, to drive a XC40 one day, after it saved our lifes
What a story, Paul, we appreciate you sharing it with us. It must have been a scary experience and we are glad that you and your grandparents are okay. To hear your appreciation gives us the motivation and energy to keep working on the important things like safety. We also hope to see you join the Volvo family one day!
This is a beautiful video ❤️ and from my own experience with car safety I have also only had positive experiences with the safety using a Volvo Car. As an owner of my second Volvo, as the first one got totaled I saw the extent of the damage on my old car. And seeing how it performed, knowing that the truck that hit it had come off even worse made me only more concerned about car safety. Fortunately I was not in the car, when the collision happened, however I know that if I had been, the car would have saved my life. This only made my love and faith in Vol o much stronger and I will never have any other car than Volvo. Volvo keeps you safe. ❤️
I owned two Volvos -Thirty five years ago , Now just gone back to them - V70 2014 -Beautiful Car . Through my Lorry driving years Ive only ever drove Volvo
Hej Martin, that's an awesome story! Being the Volvo fanatic that I am, I recently bought a used Volvo XC60, which has been impeccably maintained by Volvo of Seattle. It has brand-new Pirelli all-season tires. I love driving my Volvo every day; and I feel very safe (City Safety, BLIS, a strong safety cage and the Volvo Accident Research Team, which was founded back in 1970, and has since made numerous contributions that help Volvo to make their cars safer and safer), and your story reminds me of this. Warm greetings from Washington State, USA. Volvo for life!
Auto braking just saved my life yesterday. It might seem as Martin said in the video: "Something maybe not so dramatic" but in real life, the next 24 hours I have been rethinking so many aspects of my life. Volvo definitely saved me. And I am having this chance to rethink everything because of that.
In 1981, my great grandparents bought a 1982 Volvo 244 B21F. Since then, we have had multiple Volvo’s in the family. I currently have a 2012 Volvo S60 and the 82 244. Having one that’s almost 40 years old and one that’s only a few years old, it’s amazing to see that Volvo has always put safety first! After watching this video, and even before, I believe Volvo’s save so many lives!
Hi Shelby, thank you for sharing your story with us. It makes us extremely proud to hear that you and your family has chosen to stay with us for so many years. Thank you for letting us be a part of your life. Kind regards Volvo Cars
That Cobra Guy my friend was in a bad wreck in a 2016 Ford Focus sedan. The whole front end was wiped out but he survived. The passenger cell was intact. He was able to walk out of the wreck.
2:42 This is the most truthful comment I've ever heard when it comes to Volvo safety. I keep seeing too many "Tesla makes the safest cars" comments all over the place, but they only meet the legal requirements and not the Volvo requirements that are a way tougher, because only Volvo can meet Volvo requirements. Volvo all the way!
Yeah agreed honestly Tesla’s are kinda crap if y crash in a Volvo you will walk away with no injuries if you crash in a Tesla it will catch on fire and start farting but if you are able to escape the Tesla then you would walk away with few injuries
Tesla are very safe and in my opinion second only to Volvo. Teslas are less likely to roll over though due to low centre of gravity so must give them that however when everything else goes electric it just be true of all cars. Volvo also pass tests with older cars that were not designed for them. When the IHS small overlap test was introduced Volvo were the only ones to pass it that includes cars designed 10 years prior to the test ever being used.
I have never been in bad accident with any car, but once when I was going to the work with my second car the -91 Volvo 740 estate the facelifted version. It was gentle right bend where the big Volvo lost it´s grip, it suddenly start to slide on the slush and the right front wheel fell to the ditch, nothing happened me or the car but I got stuck. Despite the 740 was rear wheel drive, I could not reverse it out from the ditch, I had to call my friend who lived very close from that area and he yanked the Volvo out from the ditch with his Mitsubishi.
My first car (I still have it today) it is a 2002 s60 Volvo. I got it when I was 16 and I am proud to have a Volvo, because it can save my life one day.
I had the chance to drive the XC90 in Copenhagen while going on a road trip with my college mates. We were accidentally upgraded to the Volvo from a faulty Fiat sedan. After driving the XC90 around Denmark and back to Stockholm, I decided that my first car would be a Volvo!
11th may 2011 involved in a violent head on at almost 110 km/h. Drunk driver driving a fiat punto 1997. He died. I feel bad today even if it wasn't my fault..His car was destroyed...My xc90 held that perfectly sadly due to height and weight my xc90 climbed on the punto and destroyed the front dashboard glass...i was so scared I didn't felt any pain i was just scared about the other driver i tried to open the door but i was just not ready to see the guy in the other car. Thankfully a dude called ambulance and stayed with me he kept repeating "he's fine he's gonna do it focus on you" he really relaxed me. At the end i ended up with right broken leg the whole eyebrow part bleeding a broken rib aswell as a bad neck pain fixed in a few weeks. Thanks volvo
Its like my story but i got hit from behind by a truck. My S40 was a complete scrap none of the airbags went on, me and my friend was able to ran away . Truck driver said he was going 80-100 kmh and trucks speedometer was stuck on 98 kmh. He was injured when he hit us and traped in the truck untill the police arived. After the crash my car did run like notihing was happened there was a volvo dealership 11 km away they said car will be 100% scrap my insurance payed for my curent V40 but they did fix the car and sold it to someone. I love volvo and my V40 for my 2. car i have a Audi A3 but i will probebly replace it for a new S60, launched today (Turkey) .
I remember Volvo for a commercial on television would toss a Volvo off the roof of a building and show the results for safety reasons. Very safe vehicle. Everything wears out and it’s not cheap to replace parts. The engineering got a lot harder to work on them.
Hello Volvo Cars, The one question I have about Martin's wonderful story is, which year/model of Volvo was his mother's car??. Volvo, I have seen the videos, I have written to Volvo Customer Service, and they told me that my '04 XC70 has Boron Steel in the A & B Pillars, as well as in the SIPS (Side Impact Protection Systems). I have sold both of my Ford-made cars and am buying Volvos from now on. My '04 XC70 is my first Volvo . . . but I promise you, it is Not My Last Volvo!! I am a fan, a rabid, dyed-in-the-wool fan!!! (Only 875 Likes? Well, we have to change THAT!!)
Yeah you're right. Not Saab saved your life but actually Volvo can save. I don't how you consider however for me I'm hundred percent sure Volvo can save millions of lives whatever accidents they occur or whenever they encounter. Thank you Volvo (safety first)
Volvo is safe. My family have 5 volvo. But our v60 cross country needs a new transmission at 4000miles. The strut mount and bearing broke at 7000miles. The tailgate seal was bad. Other four are all good tho
self panic system in situation like a excident and tragic no need to driver to call who be concern like a police fireman...and when the system active gps is on....and we know where that car...
Mister Rosenqvist, God the Almighty saved your Life. Not the Car.But God has also created the People who have developed this great Car. That is a difference. Love for Volvo!
@@moscowc.7842 The car did let him survive if it was an old fiat sceicento he was a flat pancake. The car saved him and the people who developed it saved him in directly
@@toothpastaduck3613 If you believe in God, then you know that God has given us some time. When this time comes to an end, your life in this world is over. then it does not matter if you died of a natural death or if you died in a car accident. then the question arises who was there first? god or the people? God has given people the understanding to develop such cars. It is not a process that lasts. It is an ongoing process. but these words have no meaning for someone who does not believe in god. It is also my personal opinion.

Volvo really know how to master car manufacturing and safety as well, and in my opinion, they're one of the best of the best car brands on the market.
I love my V40 😎
Another reason I’ll always drive a Volvo
Hey i like your testimony.. God is good.. I like Volvo
Thank you Volvo, we own 5
Just Volvo !!!!!
The steering was faulty on a Volvo is the message I am getting.
No the message is don't lose concentration and end up in the verge losing grip and rolling your damn car.
Saab saved my life
Yeah you're right. Not Saab saved your life but actually Volvo can save. I don't how you consider however for me I'm hundred percent sure Volvo can save millions of lives whatever accidents they occur or whenever they encounter. Thank you Volvo (safety first)
What model exactly was he driving? I know calling it “a car” and “Volvo” is better for PR purposes but seriously, I wanna now...
I'm little late but i'm pretty sure that is v90 cross coutry.
V90 Cross Country :) And on top of that, the Ocean Race V90 XC
Volvo is safe. My family have 5 volvo. But our v60 cross country needs a new transmission at 4000miles. The strut mount and bearing broke at 7000miles. The tailgate seal was bad. Other four are all good tho
self panic system in situation like a excident and tragic no need to driver to call who be concern like a police fireman...and when the system active gps is on....and we know where that car...
Not not speeding? Hah, not so fast!
Mister Rosenqvist, God the Almighty saved your Life. Not the Car.But God has also created the People who have developed this great Car. That is a difference. Love for Volvo!
The car saved his life first of all.
@@tudormateirusuyou can believe whatever you like :)
@@moscowc.7842 The car did let him survive if it was an old fiat sceicento he was a flat pancake. The car saved him and the people who developed it saved him in directly
@@toothpastaduck3613 If you believe in God, then you know that God has given us some time. When this time comes to an end, your life in this world is over. then it does not matter if you died of a natural death or if you died in a car accident. then the question arises who was there first? god or the people? God has given people the understanding to develop such cars. It is not a process that lasts. It is an ongoing process. but these words have no meaning for someone who does not believe in god. It is also my personal opinion.
