Volvo Car Crash Center - The Temple of Crash Test
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 дек 2020
- / @youcartv Hi guys! Volvo Cars Safety Center celebrates 20 years! On average, it crashes at least one brand new Volvo a day. And it has been instrumental in preserving Volvo Cars’ position as a leader in automotive safety to this very day.
The Volvo Cars Safety Centre crash lab is a multifunctional facility that allows Volvo Cars safety engineers to recreate countless traffic situations and accidents, and perform tests that go beyond regulatory requirements.
The lab contains two test tracks of 108 and 154 metres long respectively. The shorter of the two is moveable and can be positioned at an angle between 0 and 90 degrees, allowing for crash test at different angles and speeds, or to simulate a crash between two moving cars. Cars can be crashed at speeds up to 120 km/h.
Outside, there is room for performing tests like roll-over crashes and run-off road scenarios, whereby cars are launched into a ditch at high speeds. Here, Volvo Cars also offers rescue services opportunities to hone their life-saving skills, as it did earlier this year when it dropped new Volvos from a height of 30 metres to simulate the heavy damage found in extreme crash scenarios.
Inside the main hall, an enormous crash barrier is used for testing various frontal, rear and side impacts. Weighing an astonishing 850 tonnes, it can be moved around if needed with the help of air cushions.
Additionally, there are around two dozen other fixed and movable barriers that are used in crash testing, including a moose-like structure to simulate crashes involving these animals.
During crashes, the car, the crash test dummies and the barriers are fitted with sensors that allow Volvo Cars engineers to register the entire chain of events in detail. Dozens of ultra-high definition cameras also film the crash test from every angle imaginable.
Before a physical crash test, the car model in question has already gone through thousands of computer simulated crash tests. All the data generated by these test is then used by Volvo’s engineers to develop safer cars.
As the company moves towards an all-electric future, the Safety Centre has in recent years been equipped and prepared specifically to safely execute electric car crash tests as well.

*flexing with horsepower, price, etc.*
Volvo:
*flexing with safety*
lmao
damn!
Funny thing is, Volvos are fast too. They also have really attractive, comfortable interiors. That's why I love Volvos -- safety is paramount, but they don't slack on the other things as a compromise.
Tesla: flexing with both...hehe
@@migdaora what scandal??
1 crash test every day to save lives . Respect that words can't explain to team Volvo.
First world at its best
My parents drive a Volvo XC90 and the sensors and safety features are really nice. We were on the freeway and there was a water truck that spilled a bunch of water all over the road. It was able to slow down and tightened the seatbelts before we even got 1000 feet from it.
Even in the dropped Volvos, the passenger compartments are still surprisingly intact. Goes to show how good the impact absorption is.
Amazing isn't it?? My God... incredible...🙂... 💥VOLVOOOOO💫 💪🤜👊🤛💪😎
Saved my life 💓 , and for that, I'll always be grateful to Volvo cars.
That’s a new level of drop test!
Yes😊😊
top gear level test
I feel like it’s too much
Only Volvo has stated that no one is going to die in their cars.
All other car manufacturers who say that their cars are safe do not dare say so.
Volvo has balls.
To get out of a crashed car and still survive. That's worth all the money in the world.
I LOVE my XC 90.
I LOVE my XC60
I LOVE my V60
I think Mercedes may be the only ones to even think about saying that. Or Subaru. Subaru has never actually said it, but their adverts may as well be them saying it.
Edit: I love my 850 :D
@@Viper-dn8ix Check Volvol´s web site. Only Volvo has stated that no one is going to die in their cars. Think u do in toilets, fact u finds on internet.
Volvo is a brand that is so hard to hate! They care about their customers, that says a lot.
Such boring cars tho,
Boring NO.

Volvo tests rear end accidents? Nice, good job guys.
We need this in NCAP, and tree accidents.
They even test such crashes which don't even occur 😂
When volvo invented the modern 3 point seatbelt, it made the patent “ open and free to use”. Good guy Volvo
Credit this fact to TopCarsTV
I LOVE my XC 90. I feel very safe in it. And I am a volunteer Fire Fighter/Rescue technician and the running joke at the station is IF I am ever in a serious accident, I will probably be OK, but they will play Hell cutting me out due to the superstructure around the passenger compartment.
I have only seen THREE fatalities in an XC 90 on the internet, all three were in Europe and all three ran under a semi trailer. Two went as far as the "B" pillar and the third was hit from behind by another semi AFTER already having run under the trailer and this went as far as the "C" pillar. NO CAR IN THE WORLD COULD HAVE SAVED THEM. I stand by my Volvo.
That’s just bad design on the trailer part not having good enough under ride protection
For a company that is all about safety, this is some of the most irresponsible driving I've seen in years.
Lol
To be honest what kind of guy would get picked up by a crane and dropped??
@@tyler7242 Only a guy like SuperDave! Looks like he's moonlightig for Volvo now. Who knew!
@@tyler7242 bruh, people fall of cliffs/bridges too you know.....
@@Miata.Is.Always.The.Answer oh then i'm a literal idiot
Who drops a car like that.. Good job Volvo.
They do it to simulate a fall from a mountain in the car
Drunk drivers xd
Falling from a bridge 🙄

Hi
I’d like to see the exact same tests performed on other brands and compare results.
Same
There are crash tests for every car basically. You can watch the videos from pretty much every car ever on youtube!
So basically NCAP?
So you want to shut down almost all the companies of the world. Nice plan. Sign me up. 😂😂
I want too see Suziki cars made for Asia region
That's why I love Volvo ❤️
Me too
It is really great that they work so generously with emergency professionals with all this realistic training. What a great company.
Volvo’s contribution to car safety is unparalleled
Volvo is so obsessed with passenger safety. Hats off to their dedication towards it
Volvo is Safest Car in the World Love that 😍❤️
Universe
I never thought I’d hear anyone brag about crashing one car per day until now
Volvo has a respectable image in my heart ❤️ just because of the safety they provide in their cars. Definitely my goal to afford one someday ❤️🔥
Having served as a fireman for 30 years and attended some horrific road traffic accidents I can only applaud Volvo in their crash testing regime. It was always a problem for us as cars developed so quickly and a balance has to be made when rescuing casualties as we always used old cars for training.
Maturity is when you learn that volvo was the root cause of major safety elements in modern cars... kudos volvo...
I am so happy I drive such a safe car!!! I own a C30 and my next car will be a XC40. I'll keep driving Volvos because I want to be safe !!!!
That's why 0 people were dead in XC90 in last 14 years
challenge accepted
@@orestissarikas why you getting so mad for lol
@@ammadhanif1890 because fake news is harmful
@@orestissarikas it is. In the UK since its launch in 2002 no one has ver died in an XC90.
Because it didn’t sell.

Had a Volvo since even before I had my license. I trust in Volvo. Nothing else is good enough for me personally.
Dongfeng Chinese car might be good alternative to you, its gonna be quick and over in 2 seconds, wont feel a thing!
I really love Volvo cars because they're safe(of course) and when I look at them on the street they just look so coool
The only car which can recieve 7 star safety
Even the windows are fine after an rollover Great Cars☺️
Didn't need a roll bar to do it.
This is just unbelievable!
Engineers of Volvo thank you for your hard work.
God knows how many lives you saved.
God bless you.
My next purchase is V 40.
.
meanwhile GM refuse to add $2 on the cost of making one of their car which was known having a design failure caused more than 20 fatally in accidents.
(I can't remember all the details but it's real, search the full story if you want to know)
No they didnt
the first modern three-point seat belt (the so-called CIR-Griswold restraint) used in most consumer vehicles today was patented in 1955 U.S. Patent 2,710,649 by the Americans Roger W. Griswold and Hugh DeHaven.
Just like Tesla is doing in the Electric car world, they're trying to make electric cars cool and mainstream and isn't scared of competition. Elon Musk himself testing one of VW's new Electric cars and he really liked it
*their
Volvo is the best and safest car brand ever made. Good job for the people who kept safety still the priority no1 and not just the sales. În real life unfortunatly car accidents are more violent and all the time unpredictable....so the best safety measure remains driving responsably and slow. Cheers
I think Tesla & Volvo are safe cars, even though they are rivals.
@@tinaochoa7289 I don't really think they are rivals. Most of the Volvos are still internal combustion, and they seem to be targeting different markets.
@@tinaochoa7289Volvo>>>>>>>>
I love Volvo. I hope one day I can own a Volvo for my family's safety.
Why not buying used XC90? That’s what I did and I haven’t regret my decision.
Reminds me when a truck tried to overtake another truck, coming towards me at about 90kph. I had tenths of a second to decide whether to take the trucks head-on or dodge into the ditch.
I chose the ditch. I've rolled over the length several times. Sky - wheat field - sky - wheat field, several times.
There wasn’t much left of the S80, but I was fine except for a scratch on my forearm and nausea. This car definitely saved my life. Volvo for life.
Good design, good safety, no fake exhaust pipes. A perfect match 😉
Great work. This company deserve to be top car seller's. But unfortunately. In india it's Maruti. Just opposite to volvo . volvo think of safety and save life's and Maruti is dedicated towards population control in India 😅😅
In india Volvo price range starts 40Lakh and Volvo is a luxury car manufacturer. If you are comparing Volvo with Maruti, then you would be a fool.. 😀
Volvo ❤️🔥 if i make good money in the future, i will definitely buy Volvo 🙏✌️
There are a lot of used Volvo's out there for a reasonable price.
It took a second car roll just to break the windows...and by the end the cabin was perfectly intact. I'm sold on Volvo's safety.
Amazing video and Volvo is a great car manufacture. These images even from below are amazin, never seen such for a car crash tests!
Yay recommended!🥳🥳
This is a great facility. I hope Volvos new Chinese owners keep this program running. Good luck you will need it.
i doubt they will
Facility still open and most Volvo engines are still built in Sweden with most of the steel coming from Sweden as well.
i trust in you geely
Wonder if they tested the polestar 2 here
Actually it's the other way around. The chinese will (want to) adopt volvos safety and put it into their vehicles. Check out some of the latest rating of the cars by the same group. All 5 stars
Proud owner of a 2011 Volvo S60 T6 AWD. Sleek, fast, comfortable, and safe.
We have a XC70 and a XC60 as our 2 cars for this very reason. I want to support these efforts.
3:13 fuel tank got no damage lel
I wouldn't have even thought to have a glass floor to see up 😳 glad I have a Volvo though
What did you expect a Ford pinto?
Of course not, it's Volvo we're talking about!
fun fact: in portuguese and spanish pinto means cock/dick
@@Feuervix Useful Information!
@@simpleinverso8628 thanks
This is why I love Volvo❤️...their dedication for pasaerger safety is very impressive
Volvo is a synonym of safety quality and environmental care. In other words the best family car that one could buy. I am driving an XC60 and I am so pleased. Congrats Volvo !!!
Maravilloso!!! por fin un video donde no te saturan con publicidad, donde no te piden un like, una suscripción, un pulse campanilla, un aceptar todo . Maravilloso video y maravilloso Volvo.👏👏👏👏
My family drive Volvo xc60 🔝😉 safety No1
Best car crash channel
One love ❤️💯💯
Amazing Volvo 👌🙏🌹❤️
I just bought xc60 2021 VOLVO. Love it!
That’s why I bought Volvo for my family car..
6:28 wow, till now survived ! Volvo cars are safe no doubt.
We Swedes are geniuses when it comes to engineering, the Volvo crash test center is definitely an example
This video is a whole mood
Here you can see crashing can be fun!
I love Volvo . ❤️👍
Someone caused me to crash in my '08 V70. Written off and I was absolutely gutted. But for a 30mph collision (I went into their side with no chance to react) I didn't even have the slightest whiplash or anything. Only felt where the seatbelt had locked and ringing in the ears from the airbags. I was so impressed that I replaced it 2 days later with an '08 V70.
Excellent presentation thank you very much.
Por isso que sou fã dos carros da Volvo.
3:40 how they designed the cybertruck
I know people who swear by that the only reason they're alive after a car crash is because they crashed while being in a Volvo.
💣🚲🏍
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😨😨😨😨😱😨
Huge Respect for Volvo for considering people safety first priority ❤❤❤
Great job volvo🌼❤️
Next up: Dropping a Volvo from space
Still A pillars : i will not move
Ok I'm really thinking about buying a Volvo now , these cars are seriously Built like tanks and are amazingly safe . And they look great . awesome video.
I would love having this job
03:45 How Jaguars are made - just crash a Volvo into a wall....
b r u h , lol
Seeing these safety tests reminded me of Morandi Bridge in Italy.If he was driving a volvo, would he survive? Hope is always good, don't let tragedy happen again.😭
I am loving this marketing material, so selling safety through real life vehicle crashes nice
Love the sound of crashes
Volvo: "Since it's opening on average the Lab has Crashed one car every single day for 20 Years"
They harassed the cRaSH DuMmiES for 20 Years.
Gurr 😡we need to contact Dummy resources
@Arxhend Hoxha Hell ova lot MORE than ANY OTHER MANUFACTURER.
4:44 Those dummies are doing the nae nae
lmao wtf
I had a 02 Volvo s40 and that car probably saved my life with its side impact airbags
Dedikasi Volvo untuk keselamatan pembelinya adalah yang terbaik.
Salut 👍💯
🖕ASTRA🖕 MANA BISA KAYAK GINI?
4:34 mirror said "ight imma head out"
By watching these video i can realise that how strong are their cars nice job volvo
Great work for safety of people
Volvo's have stood out as safety leaders since I first noticed the brand back in the late 1960's as a young driver. They have been the leaders in innovations all this time, rigid bars added to the doors, 3 point seatbelts, many other features ahead of all the other makers.
Nice thumbnail 👍👍
Maruti Suzuki should learn from this and should atleast adopt 1% of what Volvo is doing...truly Volvo is the only company which produces one of the most safest cars🤟
Volvo for life
Those drop down test are scary. That kind of stuff only happen in the worst case scenario of your vehicle falling off a bridge or freeway.
6:26 Literally Every time My drives to the store
Volvo safest cars in the world!!!!
idiot, and than the safety of Mercedes or AUDI is worse ??
Yes safest in the world!
@@andreyivanov8591 Volvo and Mercedes always have been at the same level of safety, so yes those are really safe cars
What about Tesla??
@@andreyivanov8591 Only Volvo has stated that no one is going to die in their cars.

I love my Volvo and trust it with my life. I will definitely be buying another one.❤
5 year olds watching this be like:
Am I-
Am I seeing Heaven?
What are these small explosions on the roof 4:02
I think each of these explosions fire when the corresponding airbag is deployed. It's hard to see on the video sometimes, but like this you have the exact timeframe of each airbag firing.
Самая классная работа :)
More safety car company volvo hats off to them🔥👍
Thank you Volvo good job safety frist drive second ❤🤗
Volvo Cannot Be Damaged Even If A Train Hits
Thinking like that will make you live shorter..even in a Volvo
well i think you'd be dead when a train hits it considering the force of the train and the speed its going
neither the plane
4:14 thia is how my toy car crashes
Fr man
Volvo... Tagline is "ForLife", and they mean it💪👍👏👏👏
thankyou youcar channel . so nice testing video
My soul darkens when I see the destruction of so many beautiful cars.
Good to know that if someone picks my car up with a crane and drops it from three stories, I'll live to tell the tale.
Lol. I think they did exaggerate by saying they want to make sure nobody dies in a Volvo. They are the safest cars in the world no doubt...but you can’t make a car death proof.
@@ShanesAutos that's what I said to my cousins
as they say -- VOLVO.... FOR LIFE. loved my XC90, XC60, and now XC40
How about 140kmh crash
