Depending on the speed, if its very slow probably your going to be walking away. Volvo is a fancy Ford. And like any car, American, Asian, European if you hit head on, you're probably not walking away from it, if you hit with any speed.

If it's a Volvo 240 then, yes.

You can drive a Volvo 240 through the wall of the building, through the rooms in the building and out the wall on the other side and keep going. You may need to wash and wax afterwards, but it will be otherwise OK and you will be completely unharmed inside.

Volvo 240 > all

Depending on speed, yea, technically it's possible. I've seen vehicles literally cut in half and drivers walked away while others had very little damage, and the drivers died. Several things are at play during a collision and they ALL have to be working in your favor for you to walk away. The two most important things are speed and the use of seat belts.
I wouldn't recommend it!

You really don't think that is the message in the commercial, do you? I am afraid you have a comprehension problem if that is what you believe you see. The message is simply that Volvo is a relatively safe vehicle to drive, and is designed to protect you as much as possible in an accident.

On tv commercials they can make anything look real

I doubt it. Your injuries would probably just be less than if you were in another type of car.

Yes, but only if you use your head!
