Autocar Game Changer 2020

You can’t win if you don’t play.

But what if the game is built for a different time? If it’s reliant on outdated traditions and conventions? Who would want to win a game like that? Who would even want to play it? We at Polestar certainly wouldn’t.

We’d look to change the game.

Polestar 1, Autocar's Game Changer for 2020.

We’d go all in on electrification. We’d insist on innovation. We’d redefine the old and improve upon the existing. And in doing so, we’d alter the rules of engagement. Polestar 1 was our first move in this new game. And it’s just been awarded Autocar Magazine’s 2020 Game Changer Award.

Polestar 1 is “an extraordinarily confident product, and a mission statement on wheels,” states Autocar. “It’s never dull to drive – far from it – and it’s an ability to travel meaningful distances on electric power alone that makes it unique in the class.”

If the game is built on outdated, now irrelevant rules, don’t refuse to play. Change the game itself. And in doing so, win.

Beyond the Road: Sergio Marques

The frozen lakes of Northern Sweden may seem a world away from the sun-drenched vineyards of Portugal, but for Sergio Marques, home is wherever his Polestar takes him. And for one weekend in late February, that home was Jokkmokk—reindeer and Northern Lights territory.
