Volvo Car Corp.’s Polestar unit is targeting a 350-mile range and 400-hp output for the all-electric midsize sedan the company plans to introduce late next year, Autocar reports.
The brand’s first model, the flagship Polestar 1 plug-in hybrid sport coupe, is due early next year at a starting price of about $155,000. The all-electric Polestar 3 SUV/crossover also is in the works.
With sales of EVs and plug-in hybrids expected to significantly increase in coming years, Goodman says Polestar is designing its vehicles to appeal to a wide range of buyers. Noting that “purchase intentions will vary,” he says it’s important to be a welcoming brand rather than “geeky, cliquey or judgmental.”
