XC90 Earns High rating in New Roll-Over Testing

Feb 05, 2004 1 Replies

The Volvo XC90 earned a 4 star rating in the new dynamic track rollover tests. The 4 star rating was the highest rating earned in the report released yesterday. The new test uses a so-called "fishhook" maneuver ­ a series of abrupt turns at varying speeds. A computerized steering system is used in each test vehicle to maintain objectivity.



The worst vehicle was a Ford Explorer, what a surprise ;)
