AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)03/06 Report--

Volvo recently announced that it will set a speed of 180 km / h for all its new cars from next year to prevent dangerous accidents caused by speeding. At the same time, the move is also part of Volvo's Vision 2020 plan.

180km/h is already a serious speeding behavior for most countries, and there is no speed limit highway in Germany, so setting speed limit can play a certain role. At the same time, it also limits the speeding behavior of Volvo owners.

Volvo, which has always taken "safety" as its propaganda goal, has earlier put forward the "Vision 2020", that is, in order that no one will have major casualties due to driving new Volvo cars by 2020, Volvo will study the driver's driving behavior, attention, and a series of active and passive safety devices to achieve deep self-driving, so as to help the implementation of Vision 2020.

Volvo CEO Samuelson (Hkan Samuelsson) has said that the passenger accident mortality rate of Volvo models is already below the industry average, but the most important thing to achieve the 2020 vision is still to "solve the human problem". Because the determinants of most traffic accidents are people, which are caused by fatigue driving or even drunk driving.

In addition, Volvo plans to try to solve the problems of drunk driving, drug driving and distraction.
