Do you really need to take out a second mortgage to afford a super sedan? If you’re looking for a muscle car without the brash looks, a super sedan without the GT price tag, Volvo -- with Polestar's help -- has the answer.

DESIGN

The S60 Polestar looks subtly butch from every angle. From the quad exhausts and raked rear venturi, to the diamond cut 19-in Heico rims and wide open mouth -- ready to devour everything in its path. There is no doubt this is a headturner, and the test car’s fiery red finish further turned up the heat.

INTERIOR

The interior is very Ken with no hint of Barbie. Sporty, yet quietly understated. The seats are über supportive and comfortable, double stitched leather with an almost techni-fibre feel, fully electric with driver memory, and complemented by the rally-inspired steering wheel -- perfectly sculpted for fast driving.
