As many of you have already notice in the Volvo Cars app (VOC) privacy settings, there is a toggle to allow Volvo to use cameras for accident investigation.

I wrote to Volvo support who forwarded my request to the development team.

In short I asked that as the car has 360 cams and the option is there to allow Volvo access, plus the fact that sensus system has quite a lot of available storage space would they consider allowing user / owner access to this feature in a "tesla" kind of way as an integrated dashcam / sentry mode.

Both support and the developers seem to think this is a good idea.

It does however remain to be seen if they will put any further thought or development into this.

But hey, if you dont ask you dont get,

Watch this space :)

I had exactly the same thought a while ago and think it would be a great feature. I am currently thinking about getting a dashcam installed and hardwired but would hold off on that if there was any sign this feature would be imminent. Sadly. think it will be some time before it is an option.
