Polestar has never gone it alone. We’ve had plenty of collaborators, kindred spirits, and fellow EV enthusiasts with us on our journey towards sustainable electric mobility. And now, in Gores Guggenheim Inc., we have a new partner. One with whom we intend to go public, pursuant to a business combination agreement which we have signed.

Teams get things done. Whether responding to a crisis or trying to affect change, collaboration and cooperation shorten the timeline towards a shared goal. Teamwork makes the dream work, as they say.

Everything we produce today has an environmental footprint. EVs are no exception. But that doesn't have to be the case. Over time, we can change how cars are made. And you can influence that progress. Because what you choose to buy is what the industry becomes. To enable us all to choose the greenest path, we all need to understand the scope of that footprint.

Zero doesn't always signify nothing. Zero-emissions cars, for instance, are a big step in the right direction. If it refers to tailpipe emissions, for example, the zero is a major positive for local air quality.

The environmental impact of a product goes far beyond its production. Books don't start and finish with the first chapter, after all. The entire story must be told.

Polestar is a company based on an idea, not a place. Wherever the best facilities and knowledge are to enable us to usher in a more sustainable electric future, that’s where we’ll be. Which is why Polestar 3 will be manufactured in the US.

Circulor is a company that works with blockchain technology to trace materials and help companies achieve more sustainable and transparent supply chains. We spoke with CEO and co-founder Doug Johnson-Poensgen about traceability-as-a-service, proving responsible sourcing, and the LCA report that was recently released by Polestar.

When it comes to dedication, one area we remain focused on is defining a new premium. It encompasses design, innovation and, of course, sustainability. That’s why it’s so gratifying when someone recognizes our approach. Because when it comes to confirmation and endorsement, there is no greater seal of approval than being named the best in all the aspects you value the most.

One shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Even if its cover is winning design awards.

1955 was a year for innovation and design. It was the first year the colour pink became a popular part of men's fashion. It was the year that UHF (Ultra High Frequency) television was developed. 1955 also saw the very first Red Dot award. In 2021, 66 years later, Polestar 2 has received the Red Dot “Best of the Best” award for product design.

It's said that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. We've already broken up with the conventions of the car industry, determined to accelerate the change to a more sustainable future. Now we're embarking on our greatest journey so far: challenging ourselves to create a climate-neutral car by 2030, by reducing emissions throughout the supply chain and production.

We've been all-in from the get-go. Committed to creating a climate-neutral future and ushering in a new era of sustainable electric performance. But big announcements demand precise definitions. Without clearly defined goals, we'll be chasing the end of the rainbow. That's why we're moving away from opaque definitions, spearheading a movement for transparency throughout the automotive industry.
