Two years of the 2

It’s been two years. Two years since the world learned that electric cars could be premium, sustainable, and high performance, without compromising on design. Two years since the reveal of the first car in the world to feature an Android Automotive infotainment system. Two years since premium was redefined with vegan upholstery and reconstructed wood. And to call those two years eventful would be an understatement.

Beyond the Road: Stan Gorton

We’re back again with the sixth installation of Polestar’s Beyond the Road content series, where we meet Polestar owners from all around the world. For this episode, we head down under to Australia to meet Stan Gorton, a journalist and environmentalist who lives on the aptly named Kangaroo Island: a small, picturesque haven off the coast of South Australia. With his four-legged friend Twiggy by his side, we get an insight into what life is like going 100% electric in this remote part of the world.
