Polestar has previewed more of final design direction for the forthcoming Polestar 5 – an electric performance 4-door GT set to be launched in 2024.
It was featured in the Polestar Precept web series, which documents the transformation of the Polestar Precept concept car into the Polestar 5.
“With the Precept documentary series we are intentionally doing something car companies usually don’t – going behind the scenes with transparency as we turn this stunning concept car into production reality. It makes me very proud to see how much of the concept car’s design is making it into the Polestar 5 – a great achievement by our designers and engineers alike,” commented Thomas Ingenlath, Polestar CEO.
This third instalment of the series shows the closest look at the car on its way to production to date, thanks to a focus on the exterior design process. As such it reveals key production features which distinguish Polestar 5 from the show car that debuted in early 2020. A behind-the-scenes look elaborates on the challenges to establish a balance between sensational design and engineering requirements.
Precept was developed to preview the future of Polestar, embodying the company’s key pillars of design, sustainability, technology and performance. Now seen with production readiness in mind, the Polestar 5 embodies the company’s increasingly independent and muscular design language, cues of which will already be seen on Polestar 3 that is expected to be launched in 2022.
The development of the sustainability, technology and performance credentials of Polestar 5 will be discussed in future episodes of the series.
