Volvo Car Australia CEO Matt Braid says the company has been toying with the idea of a variation on performance for some time.

Although regular S60 variants rival likes of BMW’s 3 series and Mercedes-Benz C-class sedans, he highlights the S60 Polestar will not take on Germany’s performance power centers – both of which are powered by 300kW-plus V8 engines.
Braid said S60 Polestar came to life from clients requesting more work and even sportier handling than the current proposal of the brand and highlights Australia’s appetite for performance cars.

“Australia has one of the largest proportions of the sports model penetrations of most other markets. These facts show that we love driving; we like things go fast and the performance is a powerful motivator, particularly in the luxury segment, “he said.

Baird says S60 Polestar is the enforcement of the toe in the water for the test of public acceptance, but would not confirm whether the many cars built or whether Polestar’s tuning would reach across to other Volvo models.

They follow certain criteria when recognizing land speed records. They are as follows: The first recognized land speed record on a vehicle on wheels dating from 1898 in Acheres, France. The speed was just less than 40 miles per hour. Many attempts over the next 40 years since that first record were created for wheeled vehicles. The last record to stand for vehicles with steering wheel was in 1938, on the Bonneville Salt Flats with a speed of 345 MPH, nearly ten times faster than that first. The record was 25 years old, after 1938, the world was okopali from WWII, Korean War and the cold war. Suddenly in the 60s that “need for speed” found on the road to men’s psyche.

The ThrustSSC mixed the know-how of 4 British colleagues, Glynne Bowsher, Ron Ayers, Jeremy Bliss and Richard Noble, himself a record holder. They used a gas turbine engine (turbofan) from Rolls Royce, the recognized leader in aircraft engineering.
