Volvo Brings Tuner Polestar In House - Will This Become A Serious Challenge To The German Performance Lines?

Volvo Cars bought Swedish racecar maker Polestar's tuning division and will use the name for an expanded high-performance line to challenge Mercedes-AMG and BMW's M models.

Volvo already sells Polestar-tuned versions of the V60 wagon and S60 sedan under a cooperation deal signed in 2013.
