[Auto News]

M5-rivalling Volvo S60 Polestar saloon develops 508bhp and will make its North American debut at the LA motor showThe Volvo S60 Polestar concept will make its motor show debut at next week's Los Angeles motor show.
Polestar – Volvos official performance partner – has comprehensively reworked the standard S60s T6 engine, adding a new cylinder head and inlet manifold. The 3. 0-litre straight-six unit now develops 508bhp and 424lb ft; significant improvements over the standard car's 300bhp and 325lb ft
The power gains are enough to get the large S60 saloon from 0-62mph in 3. 9 seconds and on to a top speed of over 186mph.
The Polestar concept also benefits from a widened chassis, uprated brakes, Haldex four-wheel drive system and trick Ohlins dampers. A Ferrita 3. 5-inch stainless steel exhaust completes the mechanical upgrades.
Aesthetically, the S60 receives a commendably discrete bodykit, 19-inch alloy wheels and is finished in Polestars trademark colour, Rebel Blue.
It remains to be seen whether the S60 Polestar will form an unlikely rival to the class-dominating BMW M5, as Volvo is yet to confirm whether it's to ever put it into production.
