POLESTAR 5 GETS ECO-CONSCIOUS AND STILL LOOKS HOT TO GO!
-
POLESTAR, the Swedish performance brand, has spent the last five years setting up as a separate carmaker within the Geely empire, and so far has tackled the electric saloon market with its 2 model. That’s no small feat.
Last year, its range practically trebled overnight with the 3 and 4 SUVs, and now Polestar has its sights on the ultra-premium and exclusive electric four-door GT market.
We've had an early drive of a preproduction car to see if the reality can meet the ambition.
WHAT'S NEW?
The Polestar 5 sits on a brand new, scalable bonded aluminium platform, it has a new battery and 800V charging technology, and uses a ton of environmentally-friendly and recycled materials.
WHAT'S UNDER THE BONNET?
Beneath the slippery shape lies a 112kWh (106kWh useable) NMC battery pack, all helping with the car’s torsional rigidity.
Its 800V system allows ultra-rapid charging capability of up to 350kW (a 10-80% top-up by a 350kW charger will take 22 minutes).
