Polestar S60 and V60 Official details released

They have one in the showroom at Warrington. Had a sit in it today, no drive though. Sporty but understated just like the V70 R was. That is until you look at the wheels and brakes. Some serious stopping power. Definitely want one of these.

I'm going to pop down to my local dealer tomorrow and check it out.

You got any pics? This one is black apparently.

Didn't get a pic. Was keeping a 3 year old entertained. Post a pic of the brakes if you can. Proper meaty.

You mean like this?

Lazy whatnames at the dealership, I had to go and hunt it out!

Only downer not much point in buying one, normal t6 0-60 5.3 (plenty write ups giving those figures) 13.2 1/4

Polestar 0-60 4.7 only 100 times til it's locked out as it can harm gearbox, yes it has good suspension and brakes, but may as well pimp a t6, plus you can then have an s60.

My daughter, when I told her we could swing by the Volvo garage on the way to school and see the Polestar.

Doesn`t look like anything special.

Would look alot better in blue

Yes ,Blue would look better.

Black looks sexual on the polestar site, but I do like blue, but how common would it be? I bet most will be blue.

The one at warrington is in blue. Does suit it very well. I would agree that it doesn't immediately look anything special. But neither does the V70R. That is until you know what you are looking at.
