2009 Volvo XC60 City Safety
City Safety collision avoidance technology is a Volvo world-first standard feature for safer urban driving. At speeds up to 30 km/h, this laser-based technology can sense if a vehicle in front within 6-8 meters is at a standstill or is moving slower. If City Safety senses an impending collision, the brakes are pre-charged to act faster on your response. And if you don't brake, City Safety automatically applies the brakes and switches off the throttle to help you avoid or mitigate a collision. City Safety is activated when you start the car, but can be switched off if you, for instance, are driving in deep snow.
2009 Volvo XC60 Collision Warning with Auto Brake
Primarily designed for highway driving at all speeds, Collision Warning with Auto Brake can sense an impending collision and alert the driver. Within a range of 150 metres, a radar sensor behind the grille and a digital camera behind the windscreen continuously monitor the distance to the vehicle driving in front of you. If the vehicle suddenly brakes (or is stationary) and Collision Warning senses that a collision is likely to happen, it will alert you to act with a flashing red warning light on the windscreen along with an audible alarm. Moreover, this technology supports driver-initiated braking by pre-charging the brakes to quickly prepare for panic braking and help shorten the reaction time. If you don't react to the warning and a collision is imminent, the brakes will activate automatically. Collision Warning with Auto Brake will thus help alert you to avoid a collision and in some situations help reduce the severity of a crash.
2009 Volvo XC60 Immobiliser and theft-protected locks
Not only will the door locks withstand most break-in attempts, the electronic immobiliser makes it impossible to start the car without the right key. And even if a would-be thief manages to get into the car, via the window, for example, the deadlock system makes it impossible to open the door from the inside.
