One Volvo Spots Danger, All Others Warned Instantly In New Safety Alerts

  • Volvo updated the EX60, EX90 and ES90 to share cloud-linked Large Animal, Vulnerable Road User, Roadwork and Accident Ahead alerts.
  • A spotting car uploads the hazard position to Volvo servers and alerts nearby Volvos.
  • Volvo emphasizes minimizing false positives to keep driver trust.

Three of Volvo's newest electric models can now warn each other about danger that one car spots first. A recent software update lets the EX60, EX90 and ES90 share cloud-linked alerts for animals, cyclists, roadworks and crashes, instead of relying only on the driver who sees the hazard.
