Polestar showcases its high-performance grand tourer, the Polestar 5, in Munich for the first time
In the world of automotive innovation, the Polestar 5 is making headlines as a groundbreaking all-electric four-door performance GT. Unveiled at IAA Mobility in Munich, this vehicle is a testament to the fact that performance and sustainability can coexist harmoniously.
At the helm of Polestar is Michael Lohscheller, the company's CEO, who has led the development of this remarkable vehicle. The Polestar 5 is designed with aviation as a primary source of inspiration, boasting a sleek and sculpted body and an aerodynamic wing-like profile.
The interior of the Polestar 5 is minimalist, rich in detail, and features clean surfaces and innovative materials. This minimalist design is echoed in the Experience Lab in Munich, where visitors can immerse themselves in the future rather than just observe it, with the Polestar 5 at its core.
Sustainability is a key focus in the design of the Polestar 5, with it being built into the vehicle's bones. The Polestar 5 is built on an aluminum platform developed in-house, a decision aimed at improving weight, efficiency, and performance at a fundamental level.
Sergio Marques, a globetrotter at heart, considers his home to be wherever his Polestar takes him. He has travelled to various locations with his Polestar, including Northern Sweden and Portugal. Even in Jokkmokk, a location known for reindeer and Northern Lights, Sergio spent one weekend in late February.
The Mille Miglia, an Italian road trip, is another event where the Polestar 5 will make its mark in 2025. This unique event combines racing with a fashion parade, making it the perfect stage for the Polestar 5 to showcase its style and performance.
Meanwhile, Belgian racing driver Shana Claessens reflects on the experience of driving a Polestar 4 at Circuit Zolder, her home track. The Polestar 4, though not yet officially unveiled, is expected to follow in the footsteps of the Polestar 5, offering a similar blend of performance and sustainability.
