Used Polestar cars
Polestar’s story dates back to 1996 when it was established to help Volvo win the Swedish Touring Car Championship. The firm found much success with racing Volvos and would go on to fettle Volvo production cars, both in terms of concept cars and production cars like the Volvo V60 Polestar.
This success led Volvo to buy Polestar in 2015 to be its own in-house performance division, creating ‘Polestar Engineered’ models. Interestingly, Polestar to Volvo was what AMG is to Mercedes-Benz. However, the brand was later positioned as a standalone EV brand with the debut of the Polestar 1 in 2019. This electric hybrid car with contemporary design and interior backed by an innovative powertrain put Polestar on the global map.
Other popular models from the marque are the Polestar 2 and Polestar 3, both directly going up against the marketing leading Tesla models. The Polestar 2 is the brand’s first pure electric with an impressive long range on one full charge. This was followed by the Polestar 3, an all-electric SUV that can sprint to 100 in under 5 seconds. Presently, Polestar offers the 2,3 and the recent 4, which follows a crossover styling approach.
All Polestar models are impressive as used electric cars, especially if you want something that will stand out and an electric car that is not a Tesla. If style, performance and minimalistic approach impresses you, a used Polestar might just be what you need in your life.
