The Swedish car maker has confirmed performance figures for the Polestar Performance Optimisation pack offered on the range-topping hybrid version of the XC90 seven-seat SUV. The improved performance makes the T8 Polestar pack the most powerful Volvo ever, but it does not affect the plug-in hybrid's claimed fuel consumption of 2.1L/100km or its 43km electric-only driving range. Volvo has also indicated it will develop a genuine Polestar version of the XC90 in the future, following a full acquisition of the tuning division last year.
