Attacking a couple of tight corners at good speeds back to back affirmed that the car has a nice steering which is direct and precise. It is also not too big and feels good to hold. The Volvo S60 Polestar itself feels very agile and eager to dart across the track. The force-fed motor has good response all the time and the vehicle always managed to accelerate out quickly after taking every corner. The mid-range of the powerplant is very strong and it redlines at 6500 RPM without any fuss. The exhaust sounds good and throaty but obviously not as good as the music from 8-cylinder engines.

The tight & fun track and a dynamic car made sure it was a good day at work
I managed to get a good exit from the last corner and slammed the throttle and the S60 Polestar hit almost 150 km/hr in no time, with the gearbox working swiftly all the time. You also get steering-mounted paddle shifters which I found to be of good use on the track. All in all, the S60 excels on the track and proves itself to be a very fun and engaging machine to drive. The car is also just the perfect size and it isn’t too long. While the official fuel efficiency figure is claimed to be around 12 km/l, this turbo petrol model will probably return 5-6 km/l in real world conditions.

At this price point, there are a lot of options available across other luxury automakers too, both in petrol and diesel, and some of them are mighty quick too. But, having driven most of them, I can easily say that for Rs. 52.5 lakhs, you get a petrol performance car with 367 HP which isn’t a bad deal at all. The Volvo S60 Polestar can easily outperform other cars in this price segment and for me, it is one of the strongest contenders if you’re looking for a fast sedan which can be practical enough for daily usage too. In terms of competition, the S60 Polestar will rival the Audi S5 and Mercedes C43 AMG.
