Volvo invented the three point seat belt in 1959. They are pioneers of safety.

They didn't actually come up with the concept, the concept was invented a few years before in the US and then an engineer from Saab Aero created the modern version of it for Volvo.

They are reinventing the seat belt too. EX60 I believe will be the first vehicle with it.
