2024 VOLVO V60 T8 POLESTAR - POV DRIVING IMPRESSIONS

EV Channels Review

The 2024 Volvo V60 T8 Polestar Engineered is lauded as a fantastic, fun-to-drive performance wagon and a top-tier daily driver. The reviewer highlights its impressive 455 horsepower and 523 lb-ft of torque, delivered seamlessly through its plug-in hybrid powertrain. Key positives include the smooth driving experience, excellent one-pedal driving capability rivaling dedicated EVs, and the subtle yet potent performance. The interior is praised for its roominess, especially in the back, and the premium Bowers & Wilkins sound system. While the infotainment system's deep menus for drive modes are a minor annoyance, and the ride can be a bit stiff over rough roads, these are largely forgiven due to the car's overall refinement and practicality. The reviewer also notes the convenience of a ~40-mile electric range and the potential value on the used market.
