Polestar talks safety

We played it safe. As a company made up of car enthusiasts, one of our favourite things is talking to people about our products. However, the current state of affairs means that large gatherings are to be avoided. And even though we'd like nothing better than to assemble a bunch of Polestar fans and talk their ears off about the safety innovations to be found in the Polestar 2, it wouldn't be wise. Ironically, it'd be unsafe.

So, we took our innovative digital-first approach, already a hallmark of our brand, and applied it to this event, making it a webinar for newsletter subscribers to livestream (and putting it on YouTube for everyone to see).

Featuring a panel made up of Polestar Head of R&D Hans Pehrson and Polestar 2 Product Manager Beatrice Simonsson, the webinar was filmed in the showroom of our Gothenburg HQ, and featured presentations on Polestar 2 safety features, along with a Q&A session.

There's no better time to play it safe than when talking about safety. See the webinar here.

Today, as we release our Polestar Sustainability report 2023, we speak to Linda Skogsberg to find out why sustainability is still front and centre at the company.

Chasing the Northern Lights

The night is dark and full of wonders. This could be the tagline for a wintery city in the north of Sweden. Jokkmokk (Sami for “River’s Curve”) is home to a 400-year-old local crafts market, some 4,000 residents, and the dancing green lights in the night sky, commonly referred to as Aurora Borealis.
