The XC60 and XC90 feature spacious interiors, advanced safety specifications, sophisticated Scandinavian design, and infotainment tailored to Korean consumers. Emphasizing its image as the “synonym for safety” brand, Volvo equipped all its lineups with the same level of cutting-edge safety features. The low-speed collision avoidance system “City Safety” is a safety system that can detect the movements of vehicles, pedestrians, bicycles, and large pets.


Additionally, an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) safety package composed of radar, cameras, and ultrasonic sensors is installed. The vehicle autonomously prevents lane departure and detects potential collisions with oncoming vehicles in the opposite lane.


To enhance convenience for Korean consumers, Volvo also developed a Korean-style infotainment system. The “Integrated TMAP Infotainment,” developed in collaboration with TMAP Mobility, is a service that integrates TMAP navigation, the AI platform “NUGU,” and the user preference-based music platform “FLO.”



In particular, the TMAP Infotainment Service 2.0, equipped in the 2024 models, has been upgraded to become more intelligent through updates, providing advanced information and assisting safe driving. Furthermore, Volvo supports free over-the-air (OTA) software updates for 15 years and free LTE service for 5 years.
