If these spy shots are anything to go by, then it looks like Volvo's limited production run of the S60 Polestar Performance sedan for the Australian market may be followed up by a similar version of the V60 estate.
The lightly camouflaged prototype finished in Polestar's signature baby blue shade sports an array of visible upgrades, including the modified front bumper that incorporates a lip spoiler, a new rear bumper with a diffuser flanked by single pipes, a roof spoiler, big alloy wheels wrapped in low profile rubber and large Brembo brake calipers.
What we can't see, is what will (or won't…) really make this Volvo special. On the sedan model, Volvo's racing and performance tuning partner went for a modified version of the standard model's 3.0-liter six-cylinder unit fitted with a bigger turbo, intercooler, revised engine mapping and racing exhaust. The result of these upgrades is an output of 345hp (350PS) and more than 500Nm (369+lb-ft) of peak torque.
Whether this tester features the same engine linked to a revised 6-speed automatic and all-wheel drive as the S60 Polestar Performance model, is something that remains unknown at this point, while we're also not aware if Volvo plans to offer the V60 globally or limited to certain markets.
