Polestar, a luminary in the electric vehicle arena, originally debuted as a racing team before Volvo acquired it in 2015, transforming it into a standalone brand focused on high-performance electrified cars. Born out of the synergy between Swedish precision and innovative engineering, Polestar was propelled by the ambition of Volvo Car Group and its affiliates to redefine the driving experience with a blend of sustainability and performance.

The company’s first independent release, the Polestar 1, was a plug-in hybrid grand touring coupé that boasted an electric-predominant range of approximately 150 kilometers—the longest of any hybrid car at the time. This vehicle set the tone for the brand’s commitment to luxury and environmentally-friendly innovation.

Today, Polestar stands at the forefront of the electric vehicle market, having shifted to fully electric models with the introduction of the Polestar 2, its first all-electric car. This model is celebrated for its cutting-edge technology and compelling design, encapsulating the brand’s vision for a greener future. As Polestar continues to expand its footprint globally, it keeps setting new benchmarks in the EV sector, signaling not just success but a resolute march toward sustainability.
