      GOTEMBURGO, Suécia, July 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --


      • Travagem automática pioneira em todo o mundo quando se vira em frente a um veículo em aproximação 
      • Solução pioneira à escala planetária centrada em saídas de estrada acidentais 
      • O mais avançado pack de segurança de série do mercado 

      O novo XC90 da Volvo Cars - que será revelado em agosto - irá oferecer o pack de segurança de série mais completo e tecnologicamente sofisticado disponível na indústria automóvel. As novas tecnologias irão representar para a empresa um passo significativo rumo à sua meta de que ninguém conheça a morte ou fique gravemente ferido num automóvel Volvo novo até 2020.

      O pack de segurança de série no SUV premium de sete lugares e tração integral irá incluir duas tecnologias de segurança pioneiras à escala mundial, um pack de proteção para saídas de estrada e travagem automática para cruzamentos.

      "O nosso ponto de partida no que toca a segurança continua a ser hoje aquele que era há 87 anos atrás: situações da vida real", afirma Peter Mertens, Vice-presidente Sénior de Investigação e Desenvolvimento no Grupo Volvo Car. "Nós estudamos os dados. Esmiuçamos os números. Inovamos. O resultado é um dos automóveis mais seguros alguma vez produzidos."

      Inovação à escala mundial número 1: Proteção para saídas de estrada 

      As saídas de estrada são um tipo de acidente comum com diferentes causas, tais como distração do condutor, fadiga ou más condições atmosféricas. Por exemplo, metade de todas as vítimas mortais na estrada nos Estados Unidos deve-se a acidentes de saída de estrada, enquanto na Suécia os acidentes com veículos isolados correspondem a um terço de todos os sinistros com mortos e feridos graves ocorridos com automóveis de passageiros.

      Num cenário de saída de estrada, o novo Volvo XC90 deteta o que está a acontecer e retém os cintos de segurança dianteiros para manter os ocupantes no lugar. Os cintos continuam a reter os ocupantes com firmeza enquanto o veículo estiver em movimento.

      Para ajudar a evitar lesões da coluna, uma funcionalidade capaz de absorver energia, situada entre o banco e a estrutura do mesmo, amortece as forças verticais que ocorrem quando o veículo sofre uma "aterragem dura" no terreno. Esta solução é capaz de reduzir as forças verticais sobre o ocupante em até um terço.

      Inovação à escala mundial número 2: Travagem automática nos cruzamentos 

      O XC90 é o primeiro automóvel do mundo com tecnologia que integra travagem automática se o condutor virar em frente a um veículo que se dirija de encontro ao mesmo. Este é um cenário comum tanto nos sempre congestionados cruzamentos citadinos como nas vias rápidas, onde os limites de velocidade são mais elevados. O novo Volvo XC90 deteta a possibilidade de embate e trava automaticamente para evitar a colisão ou atenuar as consequências do acidente.

      Todas as funções de travagem automática de série 

      City Safety é agora a designação global para todas as funções de travagem automática da Volvo Cars - todas elas equipamento de série no novo XC90.

      "O City Safety é uma das soluções de prevenção de acidentes de série mais avançadas que se pode encontrar num automóvel moderno. Abrange agora veículos, ciclistas e peões em frente ao automóvel, seja de dia ou de noite", explica Lotta Jakobsson, Ténico Especialista Sénior em Segurança no Centro de Segurança da Volvo Cars. "Estamos agora em condições de abranger todo o espetro desde o anoitecer até ao amanhecer, através de uma câmara de alta sensibilidade combinada com um controlo de exposição avançado."
