​Lesjöfors supplying Volvo Polestar 06 November 2014

Lesjöfors Fjädrar AB has been chosen to be a supplier of chassis springs to Volvo S60/V60 Polestar, a high performance car focused on the driving experience.

Polestar introduced the concept car as a further development of the standard version of the Volvo S60 and V60 where great efforts have been made on improving the genuine driving experience combined with a high-level of performance and aerodynamics. The target group has very high demands on the car features, where the suspension is a central part.

The development process of the chassis springs was characterised by a close cooperation between the development engineers and operators of Lesjöfors and Volvo Polestar – with quality as a main parameter. The final product was an optimal spring of very high-quality that opens up for other future collaborations.

“We are very pleased and proud to have been selected as spring supplier to Volvo. This is the first step in what we hope in the future is a close and successful relationship for both parties,” says Mats Blåder, managing director of Lesjöfors Fjädrar.
