Chinese media awards 2019

We do what we do because we love it. We’re united by an obsession with design and a dedication to electric mobility. Every completed car, every space that throws open its doors, every interaction with a fan: these all feel like awards to us.

But what’s even more like an award are the awards. The Chinese media has recently seen fit to recognise Polestar, and we’re humbled. Awards like these are confirmations; leading the way as a guiding star sometimes means you’re operating, more or less, on your own. It’s gratifying to know that the outside world also likes what you’re doing.

So thank you, Chinese press. We do what we do because we love it. We’re glad you love it too.

When in Rovaniemi

Do as the locals do. Words of wisdom that any seasoned traveller is familiar with. They don’t just govern behavior, however. They speak to the importance of having an open mind, embracing new customs, and adapting to one’s surroundings. There are equivalents in all languages. In English, one is told that “when in Rome, do as the Romans do”. It counts for the Italian capital, just as it counts for northern Finland. Which is exactly where we headed this winter.
