What does the History Channel, a Spy Car, and soon to be crushed XC60 have in common?
A lot!
About four months ago the History Channel’s newest series, Sliced, called and wanted to get a seat belt and air bag to cut open. Told them we’ll give them a whole car and it seems we caught them completely off guard. We gave them an XC60 that was heading to US Customs certified crusher. It was one of our demo cars we used around the US for retailers to show City Safety. Oh and we are doing the same with Pedestrian Safety this summer with our new S60, but more on that later.
I’m not a total fan of TV (my kids often remind me of the two years they did w/o it….long time ago) BUT this Thursday on HC’s Sliced you and I will finally get to see what they did to our XC60. As they say on TV “check for local time and channel.”
Upcoming Episodes – Spy Car, Thursday, May 20, 10/9c

Good for you Volvo. Most companies would not do the sensible and practical thing in these types of requests and situations. Thanks for allowing the rest of the world to learn so much.
you know…in a small organization like we have, we don’t have layers of approvals to get stuff done. Basically if it makes sense, if we have some money, we’ll do it. Besides, this might be just something fun to watch instead of trying to figure out what “Lost” is about.
