"The Swedish carmaker may be best known for building safe family cars but, as anyone who has ever pushed them hard can tell you, performance has always been the heady undercurrent to Volvo’s safety-first mentality. Polestar is Volvo’s racing division that has dominated the Swedish Touring Car Championship and snatched surprise results in Australia’s V8 Supercars with young driver Scott McLaughlin at the S60’s helm. In the limited-production, road-going S60 Polestar, a 345-horsepower turbo-charged inline six meets a Haldex all-wheel-drive system for a thrilling driving experience. Of course, all the safety and comfort you expect from Volvo is included. But in this case, performance is at the forefront."—Official description[1]
The 2015 Volvo S60 Polestar - abbreviated as "Volvo S60 PS" - is an all-wheel drive sports sedan by Volvo.
IT appears in Forza Horizon 2 as part of the Playground Select Car Pack, and as standard in all subsequent main series titles up to Forza Motorsport 7.
Synopsis[]
