From Concept to Car: That Polestar Feeling

When you see a car in the wild, it’s easy to think of it as a stylised box that simply… works. For many people, the car they drive is a reflection of themselves based on things like the brand, the look, or the style. But a car is much more than just the bits you can see. We talk with Chris Baguley, Vehicle Dynamics Lead on Polestar 5, who spends much of his time trying to perfect the simple things, like rubber.
