Polestar 5: a four-door performance GT

The Polestar 5 is a four-door performance Grand Tourer based on the Precept concept car, which made its debut in 2020. At the time, this concept reflected the brand’s future vision of design, technology and sustainability. That vision is now becoming reality in the production version of the Polestar 5.
