Fair enough! I tend to gloss over it because it still has an ICE engine in it, even though Polestar are supposed to be the “electrification” brand.
I got the impression that it was a kind of halo car, intended to be made in small quantities just so that Polestar could brag it was making a 600hp sedan. I believe they’re only making 500 a year, for three years.
It isn’t their focus, and given their strategy, it was obsolete the day they announced it. It feels like they took the Volvo Concept Coupe, put a Polestar badge on it instead of a Volvo badge, and announced the Polestar was shipping a car.
But you’re right, they’re supposed to ship it this year, and if demand continues, they’ll ship it though 2022.
