Thus, the hottest of the S60 sedan variants will be quite a rarity, and drivers won't even be able to own one. The S60 T8 Polestar Engineered will only be available via the brand's Care by Volvo subscription service, and it's the most expensive of the bunch. Motor Authority reached out for comment on the S60 T8 Polestar Engineered's availability to further confirm and explain the extremely limited...

    2020 BMW 7-Series spy shots

    The current BMW 7-Series is one of the most dynamic and technologically advanced offerings in its class, but its predictable styling and drab interior leave a lot to be desired.

  • 2019 Mercedes-Benz C-Class (C43 sedan)

    A web of country roads casts a romantic net between the alpha world cities of Paris and Frankfurt. Where maps pare down to two-lane roads, the Moselle Valley unfurls vast expanses of lush green carpet, sun-spotted by a yellow haze of wildflowers, lidded by a cobalt-blue sky. Lucky steers and heifers bask against the Windows XP backdrop. They might wonder what the rush of Mercedes sedans all means, if the local cud wasn't so obviously tasty. We snake through in a bullwhip of C300 and AMG C43 sedans, coupes and cabriolets, through towns where hopping preserves the last bits of local culture...
