That S60 looks nice! Fingers crossed the experiment works and we'll have affordable Polestar models in the future but a bit cheaper than this one!

Good advice on the drink, would love one even a stock v60 version if it had a manual gearbox could shortly be made upto 400 bhp relatively easy!

Nice vid but they won't make it like the c30.and I still have a soft spot for a c63 amg .

I've been a passenger in a C63AMG round a track and by hell it's quick.

Having just hung a massive garret turbo of my own car - I whole-heartedly agree with where the Polestar brand is going. T6 is back on the wanted list!

haven't watched the video, but am i right by the look of it there comparing a AWD one-off to a RWD production car on snow & ice?

Yes but they did the drag race on a damp bit of tarmac from a rolling start.

It is stressed in the video, it's not a direct comparison, more to show where the Volvo is on the quick car scale.

I think it's a great looking car and a worthy rival to the German marques

If you want to see a better test check this video out. It's in Swedish (subtitled) but on a dry track. There is also a Jay Leno one on youtube if you search

WOW, I want me one of those - mental and it destroyed M3 and RS4 on the track

If they could just make it a little cheaper
