In this spotlight, we’ll explore what sets Polestar apart as the ultimate choice for discerning drivers who demand nothing less than automotive excellence!
What is Polestar?
Polestar stands at the pinnacle of Swedish electric performance, emerging from the high-performance division of Volvo to become a prestigious marque. Unlike conventional brands, Polestar creates every model as a bespoke electric car from the ground up.
The brand embodies the future of automotive luxury, where sustainability meets uncompromised performance. With an electric-first approach, Polestar unlocks the full potential of advanced powertrains, delivering vehicles of remarkable capability.
The Polestar philosophy focuses on sophisticated technology that transforms the driving experience. Every vehicle combines environmental responsibility with exhilarating performance, setting a new benchmark for modern luxury motoring.
Who Makes and Owns Polestar?
The ownership structure of Polestar reflects elite partnerships in today’s automotive landscape. Geely Holdings has around 22% ownership, whilst Volvo Cars maintains a strategic 16% stake, positioning Polestar within a consortium of leading car brands.
This alliance includes Volvo, Lotus, and Zeekr, another pure electric vehicle brand, yet Polestar retains full autonomy over its luxury direction. The brand operates with a dedicated design studio, engineering excellence centre, and exclusive brand identity.
This strategic collaboration gives Polestar access to world-class manufacturing and the safety heritage of Volvo. This ensures every vehicle benefits from decades of premium craftsmanship while preserving the distinctive luxury electric character of Polestar.
