Volvo Polestar secured another title this weekend by spurring Robert Dahlgren to victory in the Scandinavian Touringcar Cup.

In rapidly changing weather conditions, from completely dry to very wet, Dahlgren made the most of Ring Knutstorp and managed to add another title to the list of titles for Volvo Polestar with his ethanol powered Volvo C30 DRIVe racer.
"I am extremely happy now and I wish to thank Volvo and Polestar for this fantastic car. Varying conditions is a nightmare for both engineers and drivers, but my C30 was so quick and agile, dry or wet. I was in total control throughout" says Robert Dahlgren.
Chasing the Swedish title too
Next on the calendar is the finale in the Swedish championship, STCC. It takes place on October 2 at Mantorp Park. Robert Dahlgren is in the lead and has the chance to secure Volvo Polestar's second straight STCC title.
