Driver Assistance Technology in Allentown, PA
Your Guide to Volvo Safety and Driver Assistance at Scott Volvo Cars of Allentown
If there’s one thing Volvo never compromises on, it’s safety. Whether you’re commuting through Allentown traffic or cruising through the Poconos, Volvo vehicles are built to look out for you – and everyone around you. At Scott Volvo Cars of Allentown, we’re proud to offer vehicles equipped with some of the most advanced safety and driver assistance technology on the road.
From intelligent sensors to active protection systems, here’s how Volvo is changing the way you think about peace of mind behind the wheel.
Volvo Pilot Assist – Smarter Driving, Less Stress
Pilot Assist is intelligent cruise control. Turn it on, and this technology helps you maintain your speed, distance to the vehicle ahead of you, and position in your lane. It's perfect for driving on the highway, reducing driver fatigue without making you doubt for a second that you're in charge.
Think of it as a level-headed co-pilot that stays composed regardless of how wild I-78 traffic becomes.
City Safety – Your Built-In Co-Pilot for Every Commute
City Safety is a standard on every new Volvo and is among the brightest technologies in your vehicle. It relies on radar and camera sensors to find vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians, and even larger animals ahead. If it anticipates a collision, it will automatically slow down to minimize or even prevent impact.
Whether it's an unplanned city stop or an off-course deer encounter on a side road, City Safety is there to protect you.
Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) with Steer Assist
Lane changes shouldn't be a gamble. BLIS tells your Volvo if another vehicle is in your blind spot. If you get distracted and attempt to switch lanes anyway, Steer Assist will subtly nudge you back into your lane.
It's the kind of feature that feels like magic and simplifies highway merging that much more.
Cross Traffic Alert with Autobrake
Backing out of a parking space? Cross Traffic Alert is watching both sides. If a vehicle, pedestrian, or cyclist is approaching behind you, it warns you and can hit the brakes if you don’t respond fast enough.
This feature is especially helpful in crowded shopping centers or tight city parking spots. No more backing out and hoping for the best.
Driver Alert Control – Because Everyone Needs a Break Sometimes
We’ve all had those days. Maybe you didn’t sleep well, or you’ve been driving for hours. Volvo’s Driver Alert Control watches your driving behavior and senses when you might be losing focus. If needed, it gently suggests a break with a message on your screen.
It’s like a friend in the passenger seat saying, “Hey, maybe grab some coffee.”
Protective Design Inside and Out
Volvo's safety focus goes beyond the tech. The high-strength steel frame helps absorb crash forces. Airbags are strategically placed throughout the cabin, including optional side-impact airbags for rear passengers. Whiplash protection in the seats and Volvo’s signature safety cage structure are standard features that help protect everyone on board.
