Re: 2019-20 Geely-Volvo Polestar 1

I just have a word to describe it:WOW! Truly beautiful car but I rather find it as a Volvo than with another brand name. In fact Polestar 1's design screams Volvo in every line. If they want Polestar as a new brand they should take more distance from Volvo design.

Geely-Volvo Polestar 2

Press release: https://www.netcarshow.com/polestar/2020-2/

Quoting from The Verge:
The Polestar 2 should be able to travel up to 275 miles (about 443 kilometers) on a single charge thanks to a 78kWh battery that makes up the entire floor of the car, according to the automaker. It will be quick, too; Polestar says there’s 300kW (about 408 horsepower) to play with, spread across dual electric motors. That all-wheel drive power should help the car get from 0 to 60 miles per hour in under 5 seconds.

All this will eventually cost about 39,900 euros, or about $45,000, at the cheapest. Polestar will sell versions of the car that cost as much as 59,900 euros, or about $68,000. But none of that will happen until the second year of production. The version available when the car launches later this year will cost $63,000, and Polestar will make only that “launch edition” car for the first 12 months. Pre-orders are open now, and production begins next year in China (where Volvo’s Chinese parent company Geely is headquartered). Polestar’s launching the car with in an ambitious slate of markets, too: China, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, and Belgium.

Polestar Production Center inaugurated with the start of Polestar 1 limited series production.

The Polestar Production Center is located in Chengdu, roughly 2 miles west of the main Geely/Volvo Complex and just over 3 miles northwest of the new Geely BMA Factory. It is a much smaller facility than these other two factories, more suited to specialized, custom manufacturing required for a high-end product like the Polestar. It includes a customer experience center where a buyer can approve and take delivery of her vehicle.
