I'll bet it all has to do with money, or the saving thereof.

Plastic lenses would be fine on a car that, on average, is not expected to last beyond 7-10 years, such as an American car. But a Volvo?

Regarding glass lenses in European versions of the 240....... Could it be that European safety regulators are smarter, more independant minded, and more forward looking than their American counterparts?
