Polestar 6
POLESTAR - Polestar, the Swedish electric performance car company,
has seen overwhelming response in build slot reservations for the Polestar 6 LA
Concept edition that was announced on 16 August.
Combined
with a public debut of the electric roadster concept in North America at The
Quail, A Motorsports Gathering and Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance events in
California, all 500 build slots were reserved online within a week of the
production announcement*.
Expected to
launch in 2026, the Polestar 6 LA Concept edition is an exclusive initial
version of Polestar 6 that will be available in the unique Sky blue exterior –
and feature many other key elements – of the Polestar O₂ concept car first shown in March 2022.
Only 500 will be produced.
“The high interest
from our customers shows that a stunning electric roadster like Polestar 6 has
high relevance in the sportscar arena,” comments Thomas Ingenlath, Polestar
CEO. “The open-top-plus-electric combination is clearly one that appeals to
even the most die-hard petrolheads.”
Responding
to the strong demand for Polestar 6, the company plans to open reservations on
build slots for regular versions of Polestar 6 later in 2022, which will be
produced after the initial 500 LA Concept edition cars have been built.
With Polestar 6 now included in its portfolio, Polestar plans to launch four new EVs within five years – stronger and faster than any other EV start-up on the market today. This begins with the world debut of the company’s first electric performance SUV – Polestar 3 – in October 2022. Polestar 3 is planned to be followed by the Polestar 4 electric performance SUV coupe in 2023 and Polestar 5, the electric performance 4-door GT based on the Precept concept car, in 2024.
*Due to
different market setups, a small number of pre-secured build slots within the
allocation of 500 have been reserved for customers in selected Polestar
importer markets (Iceland, UAE, Kuwait, Singapore, New Zealand) as well as
China and South Korea. Local availability in China and South Korea is expected
in September 2022.
