Anybody know what's up with the IIHS S60 Crash Test score? Out of the last batch of scores released, the S60 certainly does not distinguish itself. It's not a bad rating, but a number of other cars scored better. The score is definately not in keeping with previous Volvos or the Volvo brand image for that matter.

It just doesn't make sense that the S60 wouldn't do better in such an utterly predicable and reproducable test, especially with Volvo's big crash research center that allows just able any accident scenario to be created. What gives?
