Suraya Rahmat prioritises safety with the Volvo XC90 Recharge plug-in hybrid

The Volvo XC90 Recharge plug-in hybrid exudes safety and comfort, thus ensuring the best ride for you and your loved ones

A proud owner of a Volvo SUV, Suraya Rahmat knows and believes in the safety aspect that Volvo vehicles offer.

“I love the fact that the Swedish carmaker looks at safety from all aspects. From not patenting the design of the safety belt so other road users could benefit from it, to being among the early adopters of going full electric (for the safety of our planet) you can truly tell that safety is part of the company's ethos. And as a result, most people equate Volvo with safety,” shares Suraya Rahmat.

Being a mother as well, Suraya often worries about the safety of her children. From sending them to school and their extra-curricular activities to family road trips, safety is always the number one priority for her. Like most working mothers, her day starts early as she gets her children ready for school, but she cherishes these moments, and enjoys the time spent with them, as she knows that children grow up very fast.

“To me, a mother is someone who is both fearless and a positive role model to their kids. She's a continuous cheerleader for every milestone that her children achieve, plus someone who demonstrates the abundance of unconditional love which has no end,” says the working mum.

When asked to comment on her experience with the SUV, Suraya says: “I simply love driving the car. As a mother of three, finding a vehicle that offers comfort, space, and convenience is essential. The Volvo XC90 Recharge is a luxury SUV designed to meet the needs of families on the go. With its spacious interior, safety features, and attention to detail, the car is both comfortable and enjoyable for parents and children alike. My kids’ favourite feature of the car is definitely the Bowers & Wilkins sound system. We love blasting our favourite songs on the speakers and doing sing-alongs, during road trips or when we are stuck in traffic!”

Proving, without a doubt, that the Volvo XC90 Recharge is built for everyone.
