I really think it's about time Volvo released a crazy model. Ford have the ST/RS, Merc have AMG, Renault have the CUPs, Seat the Cupra/FR's, BMW with the M series and Volvo.....T4/T5/T6 and that weird V8 thing but nothing that's truly insane in every way. I think personally they should just bite the bullet and mass produce one of these crazy things that's been built with polestar. I'm willing to bet people will buy it.

Yep I agree, I think it would have been a great alternative to the Focus RS or even tempt some of the M3 owners. A mad crazy bright blue hot hatch, just what Volvo needs

Yep, it would certainly broaden their market as well. No longer will people see Volvos as 'boring old fart' cars.

If anything, releasing a polestar car would increase sales in the long run.
