Volvo Dynamic Steering with Personal Settings lets drivers fully customise the steering response. Drivers can choose between four preprogrammed steering settings in the truck’s Infotainment system or to personally calibrate each setting.
Volvo Dynamic Steering with Lane Keeping Assist is designed to support drivers by tracking the road’s lane markings. When the system identifies that the truck starts to drift out of its lane, the technology provides a gentle intervention to steer it back.
