Volvo V60 Polestar News

A JDM legend and a fast wagon will make the enthusiasts happy.

Designed for the S60, V60, and XC60 in T6 AWD trim, this ECU upgrade is supposed to improve drivability instead of outright speed.

The 2016 Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar now use the twin-charged Drive-E engine to make 367 horsepower and 347 pound-feet of torque. The models are also 97 pounds lighter than last year and get slotted Brembo brakes. Deliveries begin this summer.

We take a look at the history of Volvo's motorsports division, and see what the future holds, including what it means for US products.

Volvo is bringing 265 more S60 and V60 Polestar models to the US for the limited vehicle's second production run. This latest batch is available in two additional colors.

Back by popular demand, Volvo is following up on the first batch of S60 and V60 Polestar performance models with another 750 units for the 2016 model year.

Volvo's product planning chief reveals that there'll be more Polestar performance models roaring down the pipeline, starting with another batch of S60s and V60s.

We've got it all wrong. See, here in the United States, we take our children to school in minivans and crossovers, many of which have DVD players that allow each party inside the vehicle to completely ignore the others. For lack of a built-in DVD player, there are iPads, iPhones, iPods, Playstation Vitas, Nintendo 3DS and whatever other electronic device is gripping the youths of America.

Send us photos of a new wagon out testing, and you've got our attention. Send us photos of a fast wagon lapping the Nürburgring and, well, we're just as giddy as can be. Our spy shooters just blessed our inbox with some fresh shots of Volvo's new V60 wagon out testing in Polestar guise, sporting the same Rebel Blue paint job as the Steven J. Ewing
