Imagine if your Volvo vehicle could be filled with an extended driving experience. This would grant you enhanced responsiveness, increased precision, sharper handling and intensified reactions from your car. Well, we can make that possible.
Through Polestar Engineered Optimisation, you can get increased performance out of your Volvo car. This gives you a more tailored driving experience that suits you and your way of driving. This improved experience is developed by Polestar working together with Volvo Cars - and installed by Volvo Cars.
As a result, your warranty, service intervals, fuel efficiency, and emission levels will all remain unaffected.

Your Volvo was designed to make you feel connected, secure and comfortable in a driving experience like no other, and now you can experience the excitement of enhanced performance. Our Polestar Optimisation software upgrade enables a whole host of new features including heightened engine power, faster, more precise gear capability and fine-tuned throttle response.
Faster Throttle Response
The throttle response has been calibrated to respond even quicker to driver commands - something that gives higher precision and better feel.
Faster Gear Changes
The automatic gearbox changes gears more quickly to both improve acceleration and to better respond to the driver's commands, e.g. downshifts before overtaking.
Better Gear Precision & Hold
The gear calibration has precisely adjusted to optimise the engines midrange performance. The gearbox also intelligently avoids any unnecessary gear changes whilst cornering at high g-forces, enhancing overall stability.
Faster Gear & Engine Response
The engine and gearbox have been calibrated for increased responsiveness upon releasing the accelerator. This makes the car more balanced and predictable when cornering for example.
Increased Engine Performance
Power has been concentrated in the midrange, precisely where it is most essential, providing optimal performance for overtaking or navigating busy motorways. Combined with faster throttle response and gear changes this makes the car significantly more dynamic to drive.
Polestar AWD Feature
This feature is standard in all new AWD vehicle optimisations. The feature can retrospectively be added to vehicles which currently have the optimisation via the Service Promise, Total Upgrade or Volvo Selekt Software. This upgrade adds increased torque to the rear wheels for a more dynamic drive.
