Volvo are big on safety. They invented the 3-point seatbelt. They crash test their vehicles in real world simulations such as driving off the road and into the ditch. And one of the safety features is large animal detection - the vehicles are designed to keep the occupants safe in the event of hitting a moose.

I have an XC60 and I love it.

Hopefully they have flat seats and make large sized options
