Last year, Volvo showed off its first "Polestar Engineered" car, a 415-hp hybrid version of its S60 sedan. Only 20 came to the US for the 2019 model year. Next year, the Polestar will apply its work to the XC60 SUV, and more excitingly, the V60 wagon so that the S60 won't be all alone.

Volvo's Polestar Engineered 60-series cars are powered by a turbo- and supercharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder driving the front wheels, paired with an electric motor for the rears. In total, you get 415 horsepower and 494 lb-ft of torque. Volvo says the powertrain software has been updated from that in the 2019 S60 Polestar Engineered to offer faster access to all that torque and greater use of the rear electric motor.

All the Polestar Engineered cars get other upgrades to make the most of the added power and torque. There's upgraded dampers and a front strut-tower brace from Öhilns and better brakes with huge six-piston fixed front calipers courtesy of Brembo. You also get new forged wheels, subtle fender extensions and gold accents inside and out to clue those in the know that yours is a special Volvo.

While Volvo only brought 20 examples of the S60 Polestar Engineered to the US for the 2019 model year, a company spokesperson told us that more will make it here for 2020. The same is true for the XC60 and V60. And while last year's S60 Polestar Engineered was only offered through Volvo's "Care" subscription service, you'll be able to buy this year's cars at a dealer when they arrive this summer.
