Last year, Ford celebrated the 50th anniversary of the iconic Mustang.

Earlier this year, BMW commemorated the 40th anniversary of its first racing victory in the US.

So what big anniversary is Volvo celebrating?

How about 25 years of the integrated booster cushion!

Yes, Volvo is cheering the birthday of its built-in child seat.

"The introduction of the first integrated booster cushion improved child safety in 1990 was a huge step forward for child safety," senior technical leader at the Volvo Cars Safety Centre Lotta Jakobsson said.

And you thought celebrating a kid's 3th grade graduation was a little over the top.

But Volvo has earned this one. There isn't another car company in the world that's quite as devoted to safety as the Swedish automaker. In fact, no company in the transportation business has been so effective at using safety as its corporate calling card.

And Volvo makes good on its reputation. It vehicles are nothing if not safe.
