Polestar is Volvo's performance division, and a standalone brand since 2017. Volvo uses its own VEA (Volvo Engine Architecture) diesels. The factory calibration on Volvo diesels is conservative, leaving headroom for Stage 1. High-output Volvo diesels are the premium XC90/XC60 crossovers.
The Volvo community in Scandinavia and Eastern Europe has a large pool of ready-made Stage files. Within Geely Holding, ECUs are partly shared with Polestar and some Geely models. On pre-2017 Volvos, Stage 1 goes in over OBD without Bench. High-output Volvo models are premium crossovers with solid headroom for Stage 1.
