Volvo presents new edition of Child Safety Manual

Volvo Car Group releases new edition of award-winning child safety manual

Volvo Car Group has released the third edition of the company’s book ‘Children & Cars – a Safety Manual’. The award-winning manual helps parents all over the world make sure that their children travel safely in the car.

Volvo Cars presented its first rear-facing child seat concept already back in 1967 – and the pioneering work to protect the youngest and most vulnerable occupants in the car has evolved ever since.

The target group for child safety information is growing continuously. Every minute, somewhere in the world, there are new parents putting their precious newborn child in the car for the first time.

The importance of spreading the good word has been acknowledged by customers and society over the years. Volvo Cars’ child safety manual has been awarded several prizes, including the Swedish Publishing Award in 2007.

Rear-facing position safest

Urging parents to have small children travelling in a rear-facing seat remains a core principle also in the latest edition of ‘Children & Cars – a Safety Manual’.

Integrated booster cushions

The forward-facing child should still use a child restraint system developed for its age. A belt-positioning booster accommodates these needs. This helps positioning the lap belt over the thighs, not against the child’s belly, in order to help provide safe travelling also for the child. Ingenious, integrated two-stage child booster cushions are available for several new Volvo models.

All-new Jaguar F-Type Coupe & R



5-liter supercharged V8 engine and will reach 60 mph in 4.0 seconds, and a top speed of 186 mph (electronically limited)2. The F-TYPE S Coupe and F-TYPE Coupe are powered by 3-liter supercharged V6 engines in 380hp and 340hp forms respectively, giving 0-60 mph in 4.8/5.1 seconds and top speeds of 171/161 mph2.

The F-TYPE Coupe visual message is defined by three key ‘heart lines’, that visual message beginning with the formidable grille. It is from the twin ‘shark gill’ openings that sit either side of the grille that the essential first heart line – which mirrors the design of the F-TYPE Convertible – flows and begins to take shape. Running up through the headlamp, and accentuated by the LED ‘J blade’ signature running lamps, the line then arcs up over the front wheel arch before dropping elegantly as it runs through the door, washing out into the muscular rear haunch.

The second heart line begins at the rear edge of the door, swelling outwards and upwards to create a visually strong wheel arch, emphasizing the car’s rear-wheel drive layout, before dropping vertically through the tail lamp ...
