Geely announces the upcoming launch of Polestar 3 and Polestar 4
- The Chinese group Geely, which owns the Volvo and Polestar brands among others, has just announced the upcoming launch of new 100% electrified models (BEV)of the Polestar brand in 2022 and 2023. The brand has in fact been specialized since 2017 in the production of models equipped with this type of engine.
- The Polestar range was launched at very low volume production with the Polestar 1, which is a 4.60m-long two-door coupe using plug-in hybrid (PHEV) technology. Recently, the carmaker launched the BEV Polestar 2, which is a 4.60m-long four-door sedan. Both models share the same CMA platform already used on the Volvo XC40. These two Polestar models have already been distributed in a few thousand copies around the world, including 815 in Europe (43 Polestar 1 and 772 Polestar 2). Even though Polestar is a Swedish brand with global headquarters in Gothenburg, Polestar models are produced in China: Polestar 1 in Chengdu and Polestar 2 in Luqiao.
- The Polestar 3 is scheduled for 2022. It will be a BEV D-segment SUV based on the new SPA2 platform planned for upper segment models (including the futures Volvo S60 / V60, XC60, S90 / V90, XC90 ). This future model intends to compete with the Jaguar I-Pace having similar dimensions (4.75 m long). Its production plant is still unknown.
- The Polestar 4 is scheduled for 2023. It will be a BEV E-segment sedan based on the SPA2 platform that will compete with the Tesla Model S (5.00 m long). At the 2020 Beijing Motor Show, which took place at the end of September, the Polestar 4 was unveiled as a concept (see photo) called Precept.
