It's understandable that questions about safety about an off-roading wagon would arise. But rest assured, Volvo has tested (and re-tested and re-tested) the 2013 XC70 to make sure it can handle absolutely anything you throw at it. (Or drive it through, or drive it under). 

• Anti-locking Brakes with Hydraulic Brake Assist (HBA) and Ready Alert Brakes (RAB) ensure a short stopping distance in all situations and will withstand tough use without fading.
  
  
• City Safety automatically applies brakes to avoid a collision or reduce the impact at speeds up to approximately 19 mph if a driver fails to react in due time.
  
  
• Dynamic Stability and Traction control (DSTC) with Advanced Stability Control, Corner Traction Control and Sports Mode enhances driving stability in slippery conditions by varying the power supply between the rotation of the drive wheels and can cut engine power or brake individual wheels to help reduce skidding and maintain control.
  
  
• Intelligent Driver Information System: To avoid unnecessary distractions in critical driving situations, IDIS constantly analyzes the driving situation and momentarily delays some information from the car's onboard systems when necessary.
  
  
• The Inflatable Curtain (IC) for all outboard occupants helps provide further protection. 
  
  
• Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS) can help reduce the risk of whiplash injury. Independent research has shown that WHIPS can reduce the risk of long-term invalidity by 50 percent. 
  
  
• Side Impact Protection System (SIPS) helps protect where occupants are more exposed to the crash forces. The steel framework of the vehicle helps prevent intrusion into the cabin. 
  
  
• Dual-stage Airbags help protect head, face and chest in the case of a frontal collision. The amount of inflation depends on the force of the collision. In the case of a low collision that doesn't require airbags, the system deploys the seatbelt pre-tensioners. To help minimize the strain on the driver, the driver's airbag also interacts with the deformation of the collapsible steering column.

Each of the different 2013 Volvo XC70 variants bring different qualities and advantages, each suited for a different kind of Dallas driver.
