Do you want to drive around in a luxurious and sleek performance wagon, but would rather stray from the pack and have something other than a Mercedes-Benz, BMW, or Audi? Well, you should probably start shopping for a Volvo V60 Recharge T8 Polestar Engineered. Not only do does it tick all the boxes its rivals do, but can apparently holds it value better than you might expect, avoiding the massive depreciation hit its German competitors are famous for.

Take this particular 2023 V60 Recharge, for example, which just sold on Cars & Bids for $62,500. Despite looking immaculate and clocking only 19,300 miles (about 31,000 km), we assumed it would lose more ground from its original $71,845 MSRP. Apparently not.
A Quirky, Cool Alternative to AMG and M
The V60 Recharge lines up nicely against the Mercedes-AMG C 43 Estate, but it brings something the usual suspects lack—a bit of offbeat charm. The Polestar Engineered version turns up the dial with a host of performance upgrades, including oversized brakes with gold-painted calipers and adjustable Ohlins dampers that lean more toward motorsport than mall parking lots.
This sexy wagon also packs a serious punch. It’s powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine and an electric motor that combine to deliver 455 hp and 523 lb-ft (710 Nm) of torque. It also has a relatively large 18.8 kWh battery pack, allowing for a few miles of electric-only driving. No, it’s not a Tesla, but it’ll save you a few bucks on fuel.

Minimalist on the Surface, Premium Everywhere Else
The V60 Recharge’s cabin is classic Volvo, meaning it’s quite minimalist but trimmed in high-end materials and packing plenty of technology. There’s a digital instrument cluster, a large infotainment screen, gold-colored seat belts, and a premium Bowers & Wilkins audio system. The crystal gear selector adds a little theater to the cabin, while heated seats front and rear and a Bowers & Wilkins audio system round out the upscale vibe.

While this particular V60 Recharge T8 Polestar has held its value very well, it is possible to buy a higher-mileage one for less. Soon after this one sold for $62,500, another example traded hands for $45,500. However, that was a 2020 model and had been driven 49,900 miles (around 80,300 km), so it obviously wasn’t going to fetch the same price the 2023 car did.
