The rarity of this car is the reason why I just recently purchased one. I've lived in LA for over 12 years & since this cars induction, I've never seen one on the road. This is coming from a person who's seen MULTIPLE Spyker Spiders & Right hand drive GTR's. I've NEVER seen one of these on the road. Also, I agree with this assesment that 62k is too much for this car... which is why I got one used with 260 miles on it for 55k. Now it's worth it. lol
Got mine brand new in 2016 for 49K. There rare but most people have not idea they even exsist. My car sat on dealers lot from Nov 2015 to me purchasing it in June 2016. Got me a huge discount. Just had to drive to Vermont to get it
@@v60polestar88 totally. Mine is a 2018 and it's sat on the lot since February. In Georgia. Not a lot of soccer moms are in the market for a sub 70 grand bright blue station wagon. 😂
This generation S60 will look good fifteen years from now, just because Volvo knows how to make a safe, but still good-looking design. It's understated but muscular. Aggressive, but not shouty. Elegant, but not glamorous. They really struck a great balance. Hopefully the next model looks just as nice. If the S90 is any indication, there probably won't be anything to worry about.
Agreed. The 2006 model year S80 looks fantastic now, and honestly(I'm biased - I've had one since it was a year old) I think it's one of the best-looking sedans of all time.
Even the newest electric Polestar can't compare (yet). My 2017 Rebel Blue S60 Polestar still performs faster. DID YOU KNOW? All 2017 Rebel Blue Polestar has a third feature for track driving (in addition to sport mode)... To engage a hidden "Sport+" mode in the transmission, pull the gear lever left into sport, push it forward to the upshift position marked " + ", and hold it there while pulling back twice on the downshift " - " paddle on the left side of the steering wheel. A green " S " light in the instrument panel blinks twice to indicate engagement. It's meant for occasional track use, but it's fully automatic mode that keeps the engine spinning at 4000 rpm or above. That's also the rpm where the supercharger drive clutch disengages and the turbo can provide the boost. Polestar product VP Henrik Fries cautioned "It's too extreme for road use"... Sweet Jesus I love my (already a hard to find collectible) 2017 and I hope this post was news you can use :)
Eh the older straight six turbo was better. I feel polestar and volvo are heading in the wrong direction going hybrid and small displacement 4 cylinders. A tesla is fast yes, but will never give the feel and sound of a V8.
Love Volvo wagons. Use to have a s60r/v70r. And also my wife is from Sweden so whenever we visit Sweden, we also rent a some diesel engine wagon/hb. Last time it was a v40 diesel
Cant wait for the tri-turbo straight 3 cyclinder car with 400 hp to come out. Big displacement engines are heavy and inefficient, for city driving it is a waste of power because it never pushes to the limit in the daily driving situation. A small engine block sounds more like it is racing when driving in urban streets without going 100 miles an hour.
Well the new 2019 one yea........small displacement engine that will by default be used at higher rpms plus a battery plus turbo plus super? Yea all that stuff just wears your engine out faster, puts it under more stress/generate more heat and friction so yea........but man the new 2019 v60 is the best looking wagon ive ever seen. If I had the money to buy one I would and then dump it as soon as the warranty or lease is up.......you know......same thing every rich person does with every powerful car ever. Stick someone else with the problems. Hardly any of these powerful luxury cars from any brand make it past 75k miles without expensive problems.
All I want is a 3.0 turbo awd wagon in a standard transmission!!!

Evillincoln If your not part of the Polestar owner group on Facebook make sure you join. Lots of good folks and information

God! Does every single car video on youtube have to use that same shitty music? I mean do they even change the song?
Blame casey niastat, they all rip him off.

Sad, I love Volvo, I'd rather get myself one of these stylish and rare cars vs anything else that is more common.
Funny thing is the out date info system works better than the touch screen 😂😂

I have this exact one : )
Picking mine up in 2 days i cant stop watching videos
How do you like your Polestar Sleepy?
New V60 body + that crazy Polestar 1 PHEV powerhouse. Give AMG Wagon a run for its money.
The specs are 367HP and 480nm from factory. Measured on dyno is 367HP 490nm

Nico Rosberg!?

This engine will last 50k miles maybe. Maybe
You think so? Why?

Those new 4 cylinder diesel and gas engine as seen in the video are indeed full of problems, nothing like the old volvo 5 cylinder engines
Question is, is it a 40k car?
