I rolled my 2003 XC90 off a freeway in California back in 2015. I was going ~70 mph (~113 kph). I walked away from the accident with nothing but a bruised knee and a minor cut in my hand. I'm sure I get fairly lucky, but the car sure as hell helped a lot. Even after flipping end over there was only 1 spot where the frame bent.
I'm glad you're alright.
in 2013 it was the day before my birthday and I was in a Ford truck with my grandpa and we were on the highway doing 50 in pouring rain and someone clipped tor back left taillight and my grandpa lost control of the truck. it rolled over but the scary part was when my grandpa wasn't in the truck. he was ejected out the window and broke almost all his ribs, broke his c2 vertebrae in his neck, brushed his heart, had a concussion, broke his right shoulder blade, and lots of other things I don't remember. since then he has had a heart attack, 2 strokes and he had an infected rib plate which just healed. he was in the ice for 3 months and he was in the progressive care unit for 1.5 months. once he was home he apoligized for missing my birthday. I had I cut on my wrist and I cut on my leg. that was it because I had my seat belt buckled. long story short WEAR A SEATBELT!!!!!! now I am 10 and to this day I hate being in the car in the rain
Troy Durica did u find out who clipped your tail light if so did your family sued him/ her

Troy Durica Saw that "I am (10-12)" coming
At 4:53 the man who tested this in real life walks into the the background...
Lol
😂😂😂😂
Bruh🤣🤣🤣😭
Was that the guy who had the sticks in his hand

i was killed in one of these cars just last week i call bullshit

MRsjovealek im sorry my mistake........ carry on people im just going to sit over here
Volvo's are always good on safety, if they where a little cheaper i would by one 2.

+Erik Maučec just the reliability is lacking
+SolarAbyss, I just sold my 22 year old Volvo - still in mint condition, never caused me any trouble. I hope the new one will last as well.
+SolarAbyss Haha my volvo s60 2.5L is just 200.000km so i can't tell ^^ send ya another message at 300.000 !
+[̲̅G̲̅][̲̅A̲̅][̲̅M̲̅][̲̅E̲̅][̲̅S̲̅] [̲̅&̲̅] [̲̅M̲̅][̲̅O̲̅][̲̅R̲̅][̲̅E̲̅] Can you put money of a life? I can´t and if you want to buy the best safest cars in the world it will cost not only because of the safety but it is just a dam good car apart from that.
This proves, once again, that Volvo is truly the safety leader. I have heard other car companies claim they "set the standard" for safety, but in reality, Volvo has set the standard.
Shouldn't the name of this show be changed to 6th, 8th, or 10th gear? I mean 5th is a little dated.
lol
+Terminxman Given they're on ITV, 3rd gear seems more appropriate... :P
+twocvbloke it was originally on channel 5 I think
Matt Hodson
Yep, ex-Old Top Gear hosts moved to Channel 5 when TG was scrapped, then Fifth Gear moved to discovery, so, "Find it & grind it broken synchromesh Gear", and apparently now showing stuff on ITV, so, Third Gear... :)
cheers for the info!
2020 is coming! no more accidents . I am proud to drive a volvo
stmsaiya Their target is no more *fatalities* from accidents.
sim7740 and no serius injuries

welcome to 2020 the worst year for just car safety
Welcome too 2020.... *cue Cardi B meme* CORONAVIRUS
lol@ 1:07: old 240 seat to cart the crash test dummies around. If it works it works! :)
well it's volvos test center...
At the end, he points out that half of all automotive fatalities in the USA are road departure accidents. As you can see, Volvo is leading research and development in this area, way ahead of other car companies and crash test agencies.
Teslas are the safest cars by far. 9 times better in the pole test. 50% less roll over rate. A lot of the weight is in the batteries, giving it a really low center of gravity.
@@jacobkuca7711 If you are lucky and it actually opens after the accident and you don't burn alive inside it...
@@jacobkuca7711 Let's see those IIHS or EuroNCAP Tests to prove that... oh wait (Not rated, Not Rated, No rating)! They don't exist because Musk won't submit their cars to them, I wonder why?
@@dex2531 he just did
@@93ndani good for Tesla, but they don't beat Volvo's overall score.
Great car and video, I just wish it was longer and detailed on other crash tests.
If i ever get a family, im getting a Volvo
He needs to save his money, the local supermarket sells prepacked families.@Adrian
I'm getting a Micra from the 80's, at least I'll get some peace and quiet.
Happy Guy good choice
Lol have u forgot they cost 50k
Maybe cheapest at 30k
That is if u do
I sat in front wenn my dads XC90 Auto braked just when he wanted to start.
It was just some idiot before us braking harder, but the seatbelt system blew my mind pulling me back so hard, making you feel very safe in this car.
I own this 2018 Volvo SUV and love it. It’s pure luxury and the 360 camera is awesome.
give me it for free
don s work hard for it
This settles it. Definitely getting a Volvo. I can only afford the S60, but I'm getting it.
S60 is a great car
Yes I’ve got a 2012 s60 and absolutely love it it’s super comfy as well
Damn it Volvo, I expected the airhorn from the Dukes of Hazzard when the car got airborne.
1:05 Volvo 240 seat? Lovely!
At 4:54, in the upper left corner of the screen, you can see the fourth "highly sophisticated crash test dummy" of this test...
+1zanglang oh thats lowwwww . *says with a slight giggle *
+1zanglang lol, too funny. But not cool dude
ashrafc I don't have any intention to be "cool"... Just sarcastic.
+Mijc Osis (mycosys) Surely, this description fits you. You don't know anything about others, but you, and offcourse, you hope in vain that others would suffer from whatever disease you can think of. Don't worry, careful people like me, don't get sick or brake bones. From what you write here, and from the image of your avatar, it is quite obvious you suffer from some kind of illness, combined with some psychological situation. Now, please concentrate to your treatment and get well if it is possible.
1zanglang lol people like you do get sick and BREAK bones. And my pic only makes it obvious i want to a kinky masquerade ball and got plenty of attention from hot chicks in lingerie. Yes tho - i have a medical condition - it makes me incredibly flexible, means i keep my muscles strong and gives me gorgeous soft skin. I look 10 years younger than i am because of it. Well worth a little pain.
My mother is the crippled one - lived in the aussie outback, drove semis, lived in the PNG highlands, travelled the world, got an economics degree in her 30s after she had us - then fell down a flight of stairs on a rainy day at work and broke her back.
Volvo is life, Volvo is love.
My grandpa owns a 2019 version, and I love the beige interior and the looks, and the features.
call me crazy but i would volunteer to be a crash test dummy in this car
Now do the same exact test with 5 of its competitors.
I'm sure they do to compare their cars to their competitors
@@Masteraal no, not any more, volvo cannot be beat.
Fifth Gear is still running? Holy shit
+nakke skakke eVERYTHING RUNNS ON RUclips
Berdthday Boy should shift up to 6th soon
Volvo is the best car brand, Most safety, very elegant, solid and high quality mounted. Cars for people with class and good taste, not for mainstream boys and not for swag.
+Deeste "Not for mainstream boys" Come to Sweden and see how fast you'll be bored of Volvos. I hate Volvo, and I'm Swedish.
+Long Dong I was in Sweden and it was very nice when I was seeing Volvo and Saab everywhere :) Swedish people know thay have best cars.
Deeste I really don't want to admit that Volvos are good cars, I hate them. I guess they're okay :D
+Long Dong I think that you are first Swede who hate volvo :)
+Deeste My colleagues say the same haha. We all hate Saab tho. I've yet to meet a Swede that likes Saab
I wonder what would have happened if I'd been in one of these when I crashed my truck. I went through a deeper ditch, but I missed the culvert when I launched over the field entrance. Given that I was in a truck and had no weight in the back, I ended up slamming nose down for the first impact before continuing over. I bet this wouldn't have gone onto the roof like my Toyota did. At the very least, I'd hope the windshield wouldn't have gone flying away with my dash cam.
This proves why i want a Volvo 😂 Volvo’s were my childhood favourite
safety = Volvo XC90
off road = Land Rover Range Rover
Johnlim Male dog in a handbag=range Rover
Or people that live in remotely woody areas that have a few leaves on the road.
Both=Mercedes-Benz GL
*off road wrx
Off Road = Toyota Landcruiser
Rovers have gone soft
Here we are in 2020
2020 less death
God: I don't think sooo
if i went into tht ditch with my car at 50mph i prob wouldnt be typing this right now...everyone thts saying tht wasn't tht bad of a crash imagine a Honda accord going into tht thing
+247DUDELY I have difficulty placing any credence in the comments of a person too lazy to type vowels.
The new Accords are super safe so I assume it would do fine. It aced all the crash tests it was put through and has one of the lowest death rates.
u would scrape like crazy lol #stance
Honda has every vehicle in their line up with 5 star crash ratings. They dont sell anything with 4 star. Go do some research before you start speaking. Honda is only a company with all car being 5 star crash rating.
+WHEREISTHEREASON fck urslf
I want to see it crash dead center into a iron poll at 50 MPH head on and see what happens .
Still not dead when hitting 50 mph but lightly injured.
My friend... it's not the poll test but even so... take a look at this
ruclips.net/video/qGUgXV4hTVo/видео.html
such a thing does not exist in europe, they however do a 60? mph frontal crash with another car/block of concrete, and yes you will survive, THAT is their golden standard.
@random person they dont use mph in europe, so that wont happen, go home yanbk
How likely are you you to run into an iron pole?
We should return to the days of sharp metal dash boards and no seatbelts. People need to fear for their lives just to get them to pay attention anymore.
+Pha Q Fighting danger with danger will not add any safety pal...
Da Mighty Horse I guess you missed the point.
Complacency causes more accidents.
+Pha Q Someone made a good point, if all cars were fitted with a metal spike attached to the steering wheel then people would drive very, very carefully. The accident rate would obviously go down, the fatality rate would most probably increase though. Anyway, the point was that all our new safety equipment (seat belts, air bags, driver aids, crumple zones, etc) can give the driver a sense of indestructibility and thus, some decide to drive like idiots.
+Pha Q General Motors from the 60s called and want their logic back.
+Luke Robinson I'm pretty sure that 'somebody' was Jeremy Clarkson so credit goes to him for that logic
6:08 XC60
alianisz nice spotting sherlock.
Its not these crashes that kill you. Its the not so dramatic crashes where all the energy is dissipated instantly that get you.
6:38 look at the wheels
Volvo is the best.. gud job!!
It’s been five years
I applaud their trying to be the safest car/svu out there. I just ordered a XC 90 T8 inscription last week with a 2 month wait. The problem with crashes is the sudden stop that your organs/ neck can't sustain causing death from internal bleeding and neck fractures. No amount of safety can eliminate this, for now.
That's Swedish quality! Love my XC90 I
I'm surprised that the curtain airbag on the left side didn't deploy. The front passenger's head looked close to the window!
4:53 that guy on the back was their previous test dummy
"Swedish Metal Airborne". Now That is a good name for a band
I built about every fucking seat in these cars you see, so be grateful we doublecheck the airbag system in them now.
Stephanie Hallberg "Coffee, two sugars and make it quick....I haven't got all day!"
HOLY CRAP U ARE ONE HOTTIE IN THE FACTORY !! WUD SURE LOVE TO DOUBLE CHECK UR AIRBAGS FOR THEIR COMFORT AND LUXURY ALL THE TIME MISSY :D :D
This is why i feel save when i sit in a Volvo! Most then other cars
I want to work at Volvo's safety division now....
At this point Volvo should just use real humans for their crash tests.
Thank you Volvo.
Hahaa... i love how the Dummy is sitting on Volvo 240 seat 😂
I agree ... I've become a volvo believer 😊
Gotham-burg?
Batman is swedish?
There is a small community on the swedish island, Gotland, that is called Gothem... almost as Gotham...
Its already 2021 i think they passed the no kill thing ;-;
hey volvo if it possible to give me a car for free? and let me crash it when i bored it?
It’s 2020 and people are still dying in them
Volvo
volvo is better than: bmw gmc Toyota Tesla jeep dodge and: basically them all
i crashed my volvo into a tank ,,,,,,, tank driver died
i was always into bmw and merc but after owning a volvo i dont consider buying other brands anymore.
volvos are actually some of the safest card out there...js
+Daniel Chabino
...... It won't give you a paper cut?
+sammythesnake1986 damn auto correct....car
The Volvo XC 90 is from 2017. And this video was published in 2015
Put it itno a telephone pole at 120 kph. If that works then I am impressed.......................
+Fair dinkum even if the car would survive, the people inside wouldn't because of the deceleration.
+MrGamegast That's why the cars gets a lot more damaged now days during a crash - to make the crash time longer. Volvo cars are also designed to deform in a way so the car slides sideways from the obstacle they hit.. so that the car keeps going instead of a full stop. With that said if you crash into a telephone pole the car might slide to the side of it and keep going before it stops, reducing the force by a tone compared to a car that fully stops at the pole. I saw a few crash test when cars were tested on crashing into a small overlap on IIHS Volvo were the only car that were still traveling forward after the collision. Search for "2016 Volvo XC90 small overlap IIHS crash test" on RUclips to see what I mean.
XouZ thats very true, a smart does that too!
Leon I think it’s called the tridium safety cell
5 years have past... Sorry Volvo...
I need me a Volvo XC90
Volvo should build a sportcar
+Nino Schier I don't think 'volvo' are capable of that.....
+Nino Schier S60 Polestar. Look it up
This is exactly what happened to me when I wrecked my Dodge Dakota. Except I was on my left side, and the front was touching a tree, and my gas tank punctures by a boulder
I want this paint
me too :)
+Dubble Step Records Just paint it with orange plasti dip.
Anyone remember "The Night of the Crash Test Dummies"?
Amazing!!… I am so glad i own the safest car in the world, just yesterday i traded my x5 4.8 2009 for the new 2016 xc90 r design in white, i am loving this car, and volvo has a new fan..:)
after the crash test the car is sold on to Poland or Russia, where it's stiched up and repainted then sold as a "never been in an accident" used car ...
that does not look like a serious crash at all..
+Tadas ..
Best comment yet. For the Safety features of this car.
This Car should have rolled over when it hit the ground. Simple Physics proves that. The fact that it did not roll over proves, they got it right.
If the official test does not require that speed. It will never happen. Would like though to see this text done with a 10/15 year old car.
+Tadas
This could still kill a person/s.
+Tadas Good, it means the car handled it well.
+Tadas that only proves you are a moron. coming down from even 6 feet in the air can break your spine and kill you outright, let alone that height. Cars made for jumping have special pads and collapsible seat supports to protect the stunt drivers. You need to stop watching so much hollywood crap.
Ok where is the indestructible car it is 2020
That wasn't even a slightly severe crash ... A $20k Hyundai would have done just the same
I seriously doubt that.
+legioner9 Just Because it wasn't a monster ditch that you'll never see does that make this a bad test? That is a pretty standard looking ditch to me.
+legioner9 : If somebody is into the extreme of things, this isn't a ditch but then, this isn't a high performance car and isn't running at speeds above 120mph. This clip doesn't show you what grand theft auto would look like, this clip shows what a normal roadway with a normal car would do in such a situation. This shows what could happen to you when you drive a car at 50mph on a normal road. That is what crashtests are for.
+donkeydicked : You think so? I think that that same Hyundai would roll over, crashing every pillar it has, inguring everyone in the car in such a way, only a dentist would know who is who. Not to mention if they ever could retreved from that car.
+donkeydicked the only thinkg that proves is you are an idiot who watches too many hollywood movies - that could very easily break your back and kill you, not to mention most cars would roll.
Actually the XC90 is not as safe as you’d think. A few examples: (a) there are so many safety things beeping at you it’s quite a distraction; (b) the proximity warnings go off at weird times e.g. a bike passing 4ft away while you’re stationary in a traffic queue; (c) the distance-controlled cruise control deactivates when you use your indicator - so you accelerate into the car in front; (d) the auto-stop doesn’t work below 4mph - so the car will happily drives slowly into anything in front in, say, a traffic queue. Oh, and the automatic speed sign alert if wrong 35%of the time - I’ve lost count of the number of times I’d be driving down a dual carriageway at 70mph when the “30mph” alert screeches - because it had seen a side road speed sign. It goes on.
To date, no fatalities have happened in a XC90 (all models).
I have been in that test center 4 years ago my dad works there
1:12 be looking like a GTA character
Volvos emphasis was always put on passive safety which proofed to be successful especially form the marketing point of view. But nowadays ALL vehicles in that segment and even cheaper Koreans etc. come with big safety packages. So where is the advantage gone Volvo ? I cannot be technology, nor quality of built nor the design. And come on, you put an overengineered little 4 cylinder engine in a car which is supposed to compete with 3 liter V6 engines. SUVs are namely not only made for mammies bringing their offsprings to kindergarden. Bad mistake.
Havent seen anything here which other cars won't do - even a 2010 Lexus RX has dropped on its roof from a 4 storey parking garage and had no fatalities. Actually - I dont think anyone has ever been killed in a Lexus RX before in the US. TBH I dont think any SUV at this price point has any safety problems
it’s 2021 they haven’t achieved it yet lol
Now, that is what you call dedication. Volvo...awesome.
Just think of this when the airbags go off the car is destroying itself to protect you.
Wow in that rollover test it looked invincible wtf... not even a scratch.
+sparkss4, the old XC90 was rollover-tested in front of journalists over a dozen times (without more than scratches). I doubt that the new one is any worse.
We've got an xc90 that thing throws up codes like nobody business. Drifts right every time you hit the breaks. Fucking money pit. Hate volvo. Idk what car you all are talking about
Your right
Once I almost got in a crash in a Chevy captiva 2011 and almost t bone crash black Camry came from out of nowhere and almost hit my door. Lucky my dad swerved off the road otherwise I could have died.
Nice car, shame about the miserable 2.0 4 cyl engine. Sounds rubbish and is highly stressed in the more expensive models so I wouldn't be surprised if reliability becomes an issue.
Traducirl los videos al español por favor
1:13 THAT FACE THO
why is she in this field of work?
she has no experience in that sort of thing, honestly,
i have been crashing and going offroad and stuff my whole life,
i am far more knowledgeable about this world of crashes,
meanwhile she just knows what she reads about it, has no personal interest in this stuff.
coz shes a female, she naturally has good fashion opnions n stuff like that.
Those side airbags were way too fat. Infact I've never see them made like that before. The way the roof popped up could be very dangerous and I personally would never drive a car like that
Why did he mention Sweden? Volvo has been taken over by the Chinese. I hope that they maintain the swedisch quality...although I doupt it.
Thats why today's volvo drivers drive like madman.
The trouble with this videos is the guy who is doing the editing, no money is spared making this footage but you seldom see the end of the movement from the dummies who got the impact. So the viewers still don't know what will happen if they were in the car.
2020 is here now people are dying more of covid than car crashes
I don’t get how you can have a single car accident in the USA, of the 2 states I’ve visited all the roads are very wide, straight and the corners are shallow and well marked.
Yet I bought A 2003 model - 4 years ago =-= Has now been sent to the scrap heap because of the 1 off shit gearbox they had for that year.
Well, 2020 per say hasn’t been the best. In fact, it’s one of the worst. Cue CORONAVIRUS
but what would have happened if the car would have ACTUALLY hit that pipe in that ditch? Cos in that test, you can see it at the end of the video @ 6:14, the tires did not hit the pipe. The pipe went under the car and then the car just left the ground nose up from the ditch without hitting the pipe
Whoops i thought it said Top Gear, well time to watch different video
Check out volvo save my life club stories
wow that "crash test" was as intense as driving over speed bump bit too fast.
+sdry, if your car reaches that height when you pass a speed bump, I suggest you return your license.
While on the Interstate of Indiana
The only way to completely get rid of crashes is to get rid of the human part of driving. Then we all might as well take the bus.
