The Polestar 1 is the first model launched by Polestar since it was established as an independent electric car brand by Volvo Cars and Geely Holding in 2017. The official launch took place on 17 October 2017 at the Shanghai Motor Show. The run is limited: 1, 500 units of the Polestar 1 will be built over a three-year period.
A luxurious and sporty coupé with four full-size seats, the Polestar 1 is a design by Thomas Ingenlath, Volvo's design director and Polestar's CEO. The car's body is largely made of carbon fibre. The coupé weighs 2, 350 kilograms.
The Polestar 1 uses the Volvo Scalable Product Architecture (SPA) platform, which is also used for the Volvo 60 and 90 series, among others. In addition, the car features adaptive damping from Öhlins and specially tuned brakes from the Akebono brand, a specialist that also supplies the brakes for the McLaren P1.
The Polestar 1 features a 309 hp 2-litre turbocharged and supercharged petrol engine mated to the front wheels, and supported by two electric motors that together generate 232 hp, each driving a rear wheel. Also coupled to the crankshaft is a 68-hp Integrated Starter Generator, which acts as a starter motor and fills in the loss of traction between gear changes.
The Polestar 1 has a combined power output of 609 hp and torque of 1, 000 Nm. This engine configuration enables the Polestar 1 to accelerate to 100 km/ h in 4. 2 seconds and reach a top speed of 250 km/ h. In all-electric, rear-wheel drive mode, the Polestar 1 has an electric range of 124 kilometres (WLTP)
The Polestar 1 that "Collection by Vermant" can offer you here is new. It has only had a registration in june 2022 and has only 10 km on the odometer.
The car comes in a beautiful shiny metallic colour Space Black. The combination with the shiny black window surrounds and the large 21" black wheels, create the sporty look of this coupé. Through the spokes of the rims, you can clearly see the large yellow Akebono calipers and perforated brake discs.
In terms of the interior, the all-black Nappa leather trim was chosen in combination with the yellow seatbelts. The well-known Volvo sports seats are highly adjustable and guarantee good support and sufficient comfort. Various carbon accents complete the sporty interior of this Polestar 1.
The Polestar 1 is very fully equipped with all modern gadgets and safety features. The integrated sound system was developed by Bowers & Wilkins and includes 16 speakers with a total output of 1400 watts.
