Back in the 70"s, 80's and 90's many of you may remember many of the old Volvo safety ads. Such as the ones with 7 Volvos stacked on each other (demonstrating roof strength), Volvos being pushed from roof tops onto the road ( with the passenger cage area intact). Very entertaining. A more robust build sedan than what domestic manufacturers offered at the time, no doubt.
However today, I was wondering if many of you think, you get a more robust constructed Volvo sedan, as compared to a similar sized Malibu or Fusion? In other words, in the event of a crash with a full sized pickup or SUV, would your survival odds be better today in a Volvo? Especially now that Volvo is now under Chinese ownership. Have you witnessed anything that would convince your opinion.
