UK says that it is in talks with Polestar to make the S60 PolestarS60 PolestarVolvo S60 PolestarSweden, 2012 > present7 photos
a production reality.

Even if it does make production, the S60 Polestar will be extremely limited and could cost more than £100k. The S60 Polestar uses a highly tuned version of Volvo's T6 engine with 508hp and 575Nm of torque. It also has a six-speed, close-ratio manual transmission with an electronic differential, a suspension lowered by 30mm from Öhlins, larger front and rear anti-roll bars, a X-brace cross-member under the car to improve rigidity, reinforced bushings in the sub-frame and control arms and 380mm brake discs with six-piston Brembo calipers.

The body has fenders that are widened by 20mm that cover 19in wheels.

Volvo is “in serious discussion with Polestar to try and make the S60 a reality," said its UK managing director.
