Nice to have one of the safest car here in India but considering the way Indians treat safety and the fact that BMW and Mercedes are now well established would be interesting to see how Volvo does in India.Another thing against Volvo is the fact that people would tend to associate Volvo with being a bus manufacturer[although the two are unrelated actually]
