Volvo has announced new Polestar variants for the U.S that will come to the V60 wagon and XC60 crossover. They will also build more S60 Polestar sedans, if you missed your chance on getting one prior. These new models will be available to order starting this summer and come with all the same upgrades we've seen before like a power boost, upgraded suspension, bigger brakes and visual tweaks.

415hp and 494lb-ft of torque is a ludicrous amount for an estate car and family crossover. Since both these cars already to the 0-60mph sprint in less than 5 seconds, I can only imagine what the Polestar engineered T8 will do.

It does seem a tad excessive doesn't it? But with the growing demand for performance oriented crossovers, I can see why Volvo is going this route. Inevitably Volvo could be going the same direction as BMW or MB with their M and AMG variants.

I'm most interested in getting Polestar's version of the upcoming V40.

I will need a daily commuter car and if its anything like the Model 3 from what i'm hearing, then i'm sold. It sure looks the part already.
