Polestar: Number 5 from 2024 in Switzerland 🎥
FIRST APPEARANCE At the Goodwood Festival of Speed, Polestar publicly displayed for the first time a development prototype of the Polestar 5, which is scheduled for market launch in 2024.
A unique composite aluminum chassis has been designed and developed for the 5 Series Polestar to highlight its dynamic driving characteristics. In addition, to provide increased performance, a new electric powertrain is being developed to work in tandem with an 800-volt architecture to deliver a huge boost.
A new rear electric motor will provide increased power. In combination with a powerful front electric motor, the complete dual motor powertrain is expected to deliver 650 kW (884 hp) and 900 Nm.
Benchmark for high-performance vehicles
Jörg Brandscheid, CTO and Head of Research and Development at Polestar: "The new powertrain we are working on will set a new benchmark for our high-performance vehicles and thus for our brand. The combination of powerful electric motors and advances in lightweight platform technology will result in a truly impressive vehicle."
Planning for the next three years
The car is also scheduled to be launched in Switzerland in 2024 and is the third of three new electric cars Polestar will launch in the next three years, following the Polestar 3 and Polestar 4 electric SUVs.
Design and advanced technology
Thomas Ingenlath, CEO Polestar: "The Polestar 5 is a groundbreaking project for the company. Its progressive design and advanced technology set the tone for Polestar's future. We have great talent on board that will enable us to develop truly iconic electric cars."
