This year, Volvo has equipped some of its models with Google integration, which uses Google technology to access navigation and make it easier to use the touchscreen. Some models also have a more intuitive touchscreen. Touch sensors have also been added to some models to help you use functions in the cabin more easily, including turning on interior lights and opening the moonroof. Volvo has also added a driver understanding system to some of its vehicles in 2024.

The system can then respond to prevent the driver from operating the vehicle.
Most of Volvo’s models in 2024 include lane departure warning, lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control, pedestrian detection, and semi-autonomous driving. Other models also have blind-spot detection, 360-degree cameras, and parking assist mechanisms.
