The Swedish manufacturer presented at the CityArena of Gothenburg the Volvo S60 Polestar, which combines Volvo's legendary driving experience with high level performances and manoeuvrability.
"We are proud to present Polestar's interpretation of the Volvo S60," says Christian Dahl, founder and CEO of Polestar. The T6 engine was modified, making the 0-100 km/h in 3.9 seconds and a top speed of over 300 km/h possible; and the chassis was lowered, widened and reinforced.
Robert Dahlgren, Polestar racing driver says: "To me the Volvo S60 is a very well sorted car from start. In our concept car we have developed chassis, engine and transmission just like we want it, and the result is a huge leap forward in terms of handling and performance. It is, by far, the most impressive street Volvo I've ever driven. But I must also say that the genuine Volvo feeling is still there."
Volvo specified that only a limited number of Polestar would be produced, depending the market's welcome.
