VISE (Volvo Interactive Safety Engine)

This vehicle sheds light on the mystery of how autonomous vehicles will blend with the traffic of tomorrow. Focusing on long haul highway routes, Volvo VISE is designed to execute hub-to-hub transport services autonomously. Signals used to communicate in road traffic are translated to the digital age. By being able to understand its environment and react to it, Volvo VISE comes to life with a soul of its own. Through various sensors and autonomous technology the vehicle measures each traffic situation and earns the trust of its surroundings through clear communication of intent.

With soft and generous shapes the exterior design describes a friendly vehicle that wins over its audience at the first glance. Volvo VISE has a deeper understanding of safety. Beneath the skin and beside its capability to communicate, the vehicle is equipped with several passive safety features, taking control in every situation. Volvo VISE ensures road safety for all.
