Are Volvo Vehicles Safe?
Safety is one of Volvo's defining priorities. Volvo develops its vehicles using real-world crash research and advanced safety systems designed to help detect potential hazards, support the driver and protect occupants when a collision occurs.
No vehicle can eliminate every risk, but Volvo's long-standing focus on occupant protection and driver assistance makes safety a central part of the brand rather than simply an added feature.
Which Volvo SUV Is Best for Families?
The Volvo XC90 is one of the strongest choices for families that need three rows, generous passenger space and premium comfort. It is available as a mild-hybrid gas SUV or plug-in hybrid, while the fully electric Volvo EX90 provides three-row seating with an all-electric powertrain.
For families that don't need three rows, the Volvo XC60 offers a spacious five-seat layout with a comfortable interior and available plug-in hybrid powertrain.

Which Volvo Is Best for Commuting?
The Volvo XC40 is a strong choice for drivers who want a compact luxury SUV that's easy to maneuver in traffic and convenient for everyday driving. The XC60 is another excellent option for commuters who want more interior space and a more substantial luxury SUV experience.

Which Volvo Has the Most Passenger and Cargo Space?
The Volvo XC90 is one of the best choices for shoppers who prioritize passenger and cargo flexibility. It offers six- or seven-seat configurations and up to 85.7 cubic feet of maximum cargo capacity.
The XC90 is particularly well suited to families who need room for passengers, groceries, sports equipment, luggage and other everyday cargo.

Volvo Safety & Technology FAQs
Volvo approaches safety through a combination of vehicle structure, occupant protection, sensors, cameras, driver assistance and real-world safety research. Its safety technology is designed to help drivers identify potential hazards and provide additional support when appropriate.
BLIS, or Blind Spot Information System, is a driver assistance technology that monitors areas around the vehicle and can provide support when another vehicle is detected in an adjacent lane. Volvo says BLIS is standard across its current models.
Volvo offers driver assistance technology designed to detect potential hazards such as vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists and large animals. Depending on the model and situation, the system can provide warnings and may automatically apply braking if the driver does not respond.
Yes. A 360-degree camera system is available on select Volvo models and uses multiple cameras to provide a bird's-eye view around the vehicle. This can be particularly helpful when parking in tight spaces or maneuvering in crowded areas.
Pilot Assist is a driver assistance system designed to support the driver with functions such as steering assistance and maintaining a set speed and distance from traffic. It is a driver support system, not a substitute for attentive driving, and drivers remain responsible for controlling the vehicle.
Yes. Volvo uses connected safety technology to share certain hazard information between compatible connected vehicles and infrastructure. Volvo recently expanded its connected safety alerts to include warnings related to large animals, vulnerable road users, roadwork and accidents ahead.
Volvo Lease & Finance FAQs
Leasing can be attractive to drivers who enjoy having a newer luxury vehicle every few years and want predictable monthly payments. Financing may make more sense for shoppers who plan to keep their Volvo for a longer period.
Financing options vary based on credit history, income, down payment and other factors. Volvo Cars Manasquan's finance team can help qualified shoppers review available financing options and determine what may fit their situation.
Yes. You can trade in a vehicle from another manufacturer toward the purchase or lease of a Volvo. Getting your current vehicle evaluated can help you understand how its value may affect your next vehicle transaction.
Many dealerships offer online finance tools that allow shoppers to begin the financing process before visiting the showroom. Starting online can help you prepare for your Volvo purchase and streamline your dealership visit.
Yes. Volvo Cars Manasquan offers lease and finance opportunities on select new Volvo models. Current offers can change, so shoppers should review the dealership's latest Volvo specials before making a purchase or lease decision.
Volvo Service & Maintenance FAQs
A Volvo dealership has technicians familiar with Volvo vehicles, factory maintenance procedures and Volvo-specific diagnostic systems. Using the appropriate parts, equipment and service procedures can help maintain your vehicle's performance and reliability.
Service intervals vary by Volvo model, powertrain, mileage and driving conditions. The best approach is to follow the maintenance schedule for your specific vehicle and address recommended maintenance before smaller issues become larger repairs.
Oil-change intervals depend on the specific Volvo model and powertrain. Newer Volvo vehicles use vehicle-specific maintenance schedules, so owners should follow the recommendations in their Owner's Manual and vehicle maintenance information rather than relying on a universal mileage interval.
Like other luxury vehicles, Volvo models benefit from following their recommended maintenance schedules. Routine services can include oil and filter changes, tire rotations, brake inspections, fluid checks, battery service and vehicle-specific inspections.
Yes. Volvo Cars Manasquan allows customers to schedule service online, making it easier to arrange maintenance, inspections and repairs around your schedule.
