Volvo might be best known for helping the three-point seat belt find its way into passenger cars, and for wagons. The wagon shape has been a staple of Volvo’s products and helped carve a dedicated niche for the brand. Well, with time, all things must change, and the wagon has moved away from being the defacto people hauler, and become more of a fashion decision. Building on that, Volvo also decided it was wise to let the folks at Polestar Engineered take a V60 and turn it into a road-eating monster. The ’24 Volvo V60 Polestar Engineered packs a plug-in-hybrid powertrain that sends a combined 455 hp and 523 lb-ft of torque to the wheels, while also advertising 41 miles of electric range and 530 miles worth of combined range.
On this episode of Quick Spin, host Wesley Wren hops behind the wheel of the 2024 Volvo V60 Polestar Engineered and puts it through its paces. Wren takes you on a guided tour of the V6 and highlights some of his favorite features. Later, Wren takes you along for a live drive review of this hopped-up hauler. Adding to these segments, Wren chats with Autoweek’s executive editor Tom Murphy about the status of wagons in the car market today, performance wagons, and this Volvo. Closing the show, the pair break down what makes the ’24 Volvo V60 Polestar Engineered so special.
