Volvo’s performance wing Polestar has its future as a standalone electric brand
Polestar has confirmed plans for its first three models, a new production facility in China, and ambitions to set a new industry benchmark for performance vehicles.
The 600hp Polestar 1 will be the first car to carry the Polestar badge, and will roll off the production line in mid-2019. Because of synergies and economies of scale enabled by Volvo, Polestar can design and produce cars in a fraction of the time it takes a new entrant.
