It was not really that...they did build a prototype in the early 90s, but they did not have the necessary technology to install in it to prevent rollovers. So, unlike most manufacturers, they decided to wait it out...

It would be kind of strange and detrimental to have seen a Volvo SUV rollover like the Trooper, Montero, Pathfinder, Explorer, etc. did.
