Polestar will build a Tesla-killing £170,000 open-top ELECTRIC supercar

SWEDISH electric car manufacturer Polestar has confirmed it will be putting its O2 concept car into production.

The low-volume open-top electric supercar will be called the Polestar 6 and is due to arrive in 2026.

These pictures aren’t the finished product, but give a very good idea of what the production car will look like.

You’ll be able to reserve the 6 online from today for around £20,000, but you’ll be waiting a while to see it on your drive – it should arrive in 2026.

It’s also not cheap at £170,000 here in Britain.

But that does get you what has to be one of the best-looking new motors on sale right now and some serious performance.

It comes with a huge battery and motors on each axle developing 884hp, meaning 0-62mph is cracked in 3.2 seconds and it has a top speed of 155mph.

There’s no official word on the Polestar 6’s range just yet, but the recently revealed Polestar 5 uses the same battery and motors and should do more than 300 miles between charges.

All those figures should give the Tesla Roadster a real run for its money, although that car could arrive as early as next year.

The 6 has four seats, although from these images it looks as though the rear seats will be best for children – or bags.

There looks to be impressive space for the front passengers, though, and a sleek Scandi cabin with lashing of high-quality metal and wood.

You can also see Polestar’s superb portrait infotainment system that runs on Google’s Android tech.

Sadly Polestar has confirmed that the autonomous drone contained within the rear of the O2 concept won’t make production. Sigh.

To begin with, 500 numbered units of a special ‘LA Concept’
version are planned.

They will have a unique ‘Sky’ blue paint, light leather
interior and unique 21-inch wheels.

Polestar CEO Thomas Ingenlath said: “With the overwhelming consumer and press response, we took the decision to put this stunning roadster into production and I am so excited to make it a
reality.

“Polestar 6 is a perfect combination of powerful electric performance and the thrill of fresh air with the top down.”
