Subject: Re: Volvo vs. Saab Safety


Wake up and smell the coffee. The idea behind the head restraint(being moving opposite to the body i.e. the neck when it goes back) has been copied by VOlvo. They just added the whole seat (the use is by the way questioned by a lot of objective sources) in order to avoid copyright and patent laws. The Volvo has not been tested yet ? Maybe they are waiting untill Volvo makes a decent rear end to the car because obviously they forgot to (or are the few I saw those who got the carport on their rear ?). Second of all, in a belgian car magazine that cannot stand anything concerning Saab was even written that the seats and especially from Saab is one of the best there is. The seats of a BMW are worthless as those of a Mercedes. An Infiniti I've never driven.
