Polestar Performance has its roots in racing and car tuning through Polestar Racing - a team that made Volvos faster and sharper in the 2000s. Since Volvo Cars took over in 2015, the brand has grown into its own electric vehicle player focused on striking design, technology and sustainable performance. Headquarters remain in Torslanda, just outside Gothenburg.

Today Polestar is a global brand building electric cars for those who want more than just range - think driving pleasure, progressive technology and standout design. It’s a blend of Scandinavian minimalism and sporty edge, with electric drivetrains at its core.

If you are a developer there’s plenty to dive into. Polestar offers a developer portal where you can test, build and experiment with Android Automotive. If you want to create the next smart in-car app, this is an exciting place to start.
