The idea for Volvo first came in 1924. Given the climate and weather of Sweden, driving could (and can still be) be very dangerous, at times. That's why the two founders of Volvo decided to come up with the concept for a line of trucks and cars that could withstand the rigors that come with the roads of Sweden. It's been some time, since then, and now you, too, can test the inclement-weather performance of a Volvo in New Jersey. That's a rather long way to come, but quality cars are known to travel far.

 

A Volvo dealer would be quick to point out that, in 1927, the two founders said, "Cars are driven by people. The guiding principle behind everything we make at Volvo, therefore, is, and must remain, safety." It's through this mentality that Volvo has since developed remarkable safety technologies, including lane departure warnings, pedestrian detection, and collision warning with full auto-brake. In the US News & World Report analysis of the 2013 Volvo S60, a safety rating of 10/10 was awarded to the vehicle. If you stand inside a Volvo dealership in NJ, this means you're standing among the safest cars in the entire world.
