More horsepower, more torque, same engine, same fuel economy? I'm no auto engineer but I know enough about physics to know that you can't get something from nothing. This seems too good to be true (although at the price, I'm not sure the added performance on an SUV is really worth it anyway).

I'm sure there is a price to the added performance. Normally it runs the risk of pre-detonation unless you run high octane fuel. I also assume there are also more peaks in the torque curve instead of a nice linear, stable power delivery.

As long as you are willing to pay for better fuel, the power is there for the taking.

The vehicle already requires premium fuel

Good point.

Volvo requires 91 for best performance. But it will run on e85 as stated in the manual on page 382. I realize you can have e85 with 91 octane, i'm guessing you would not get nearly the performance or mileage out of it.

With the Polestar upgrade, I wonder if they recommend 93 or better. Doesn't really matter to me that much, I doubt I ever get the upgrade.
