The words "family friendly" and "Volvo" seem to go hand-in-hand. Since its earliest days, Volvo has emphasized solidity, durability, and of course safety. But it has been nearly two decades since "boxy but good" described any of Volvo's lineup of sedans, wagons and crossovers, and even longer since many of the safety innovations that made Volvo famous -- crumple zones, three-point seatbelts for all passengers, side-impact airbags and many others -- have been co-opted by the company's competition. That, coupled with the company's ever-growing premium image prompted us to wonder: Just how family friendly is Volvo these days? To find out, we sampled a 2010 Volvo XC60 T6, one of Volvo's newest vehicles, which is equipped with City Safety, the company's latest safety innovation. |
