VOLVO’S ground-breaking XC90 SUV has received further recognition for its role in redefining the SUV segment — this time in the familiar Volvo territory of safety.

The XC90 was awarded the 2015 Euro NCAP best in class award for both large off-road and overall performance categories. The XC90 achieved overall top performance in the 2015 Euro NCAP ratings.

It scored 100 per cent in the safety assist category and an outstanding 97 per cent in adult occupant protection, reflecting the innovative approach that Volvo Cars continues to take when developing new safety systems.
