WHEN IT COMES TO SAFETY, WE MEAN BUSINESSOur range of innovative safety technologies – collectively
known as ‘IntelliSafe’ – supports Volvo drivers in their daily
driving, protects them in the event of an accident, and
helps to prevent accidents in the first place.
But our commitment to safety means more than keeping
people protected. It also serves to lower insurance
premiums, reduce repair costs, and increase overall
productivity – by keeping your employees on the job.
