Recently, Volvo's high-performance sub-brand Polestar released the official map of the new XC60 Polestar upgraded version. Unlike the existing S60 Polestar models, the new XC60 Polestar upgrade is not a single model, but a performance upgrade from Polestar for the new XC60, including the most powerful T8. The maximum power was increased to 421 hp.

Taking the new XC60 T8 Polestar upgrade model as an example, Polestar has increased the overall maximum power of the car to 421 hp without affecting the original car warranty, exhaust emissions, fuel consumption and pure electric cruising range (45km). It has become the most powerful Volvo passenger car ever produced. In terms of appearance, the new car retains the original exterior design of the new XC60, whether it is the R-Design sports version or the regular version, and the blue Polestar badge added to the rear of the car is a low-key indication of its Polestar upgrade.

With the help of event partner Cyan Racing, Polestar also brings a smarter throttle response and faster gearbox shifting speed to the new XC60 Polestar upgrade, resulting in a better driving experience. “Our goal is to provide greater vehicle performance for Volvo owners who love driving under the driving conditions of daily commute,” said Henrik Fries, deputy director of R&D at Polestar. “The new XC60 provides a good upgrade for chassis and powertrain. Foundation, under the careful adjustment of our Polestar, the new XC60 has become the real driver's car."

It is reported that Polestar mainly improves the power output of the medium speed range of the vehicle engine. At the same time, the new car's gearbox program has been upgraded to not only have a faster shifting speed, but also to lock the gear during high-speed cornering to avoid the center of gravity of the vehicle in the corner due to gear shifting. The phenomenon of imbalance. In addition to the strongest T8 models, the Polestar upgrade also supports T6 (2.0T dual turbocharged gasoline / 320 horsepower), T5 (2.0T gasoline / 254 horsepower), D5 (2.0T diesel / 235 horsepower), D4 (2.0 T diesel / 190 hp) and other medium and low models.
