Volvo Cars History (Continued from top)

Volvo Logo  

Volvo introduced many of today's standard safety features, such as padded dashboards, rear-facing child seats and laminated glass. However, over the years most other automobile manufacturers adopted the same features and by the 1990s U.S. sales had waned.

In 1998 Volvo sold their automotive division to Ford but agreed to share the name so now 'Volvo' is the Swedish manufacturer of trucks, and one of the largest truck builders in the world, and 'Volvo Cars' is part of the Ford Motor Company's Premier Automotive Group.
