In terms of active safety systems, the battery-powered XC40 also
introduces new technology. It is the first Volvo model equipped with
a new Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) sensor platform
with software developed by Zenuity, the joint venture company
owned by Volvo Cars and Veoneer.
The new ADAS platform is a modern, scalable active safety system
that consists of an array of radars, cameras and ultrasonic sensors.
Because of its scalable nature it can easily be developed further and
lays the foundation for the future introduction of autonomous drive
technology.
Volvo Cars will reveal more details about the fully electric XC40
in the coming weeks, before it will be first shown to the public on
October 16.
