Tuesday, July 15, 2025 - An accident involving a Volvo and a BMW along Kiambu Road has ignited online debate over the safety features of the two luxury car brands.
Photos shared from the scene show the BMW, which reportedly
rear-ended the Volvo, with significant front-end damage, while the Volvo
appeared to have only minor scratches.
The crash has reignited praise for Volvo’s long-standing
reputation for durability and crash safety.
However, car enthusiasts have pointed out that BMW’s front
end is designed to crumple on impact - a deliberate safety feature meant to
absorb energy and protect passengers by isolating the passenger cabin from the
crash force.
Still, the incident has many tipping their hats to Volvo’s
tough, safety-first engineering.
