Polestar 1 - Where Swedish Design Meets Electric Elegance

January 1, 2024
Polestar 1, the electric performance hybrid that marked the inception of the Polestar brand, made waves globally when it was unveiled in October 2017. Engineered without compromise, Polestar 1 boasts a groundbreaking powertrain, innovative use of materials, and design cues that redefine automotive styling. In this article, we delve into the exceptional features of Polestar 1 and its presence in the vibrant automotive landscape of Dubai.
 
At the heart of Polestar 1 lies a hybrid powertrain that exemplifies technological innovation. Two electric motors on the rear axle, combined with a front-mounted petrol engine featuring turbo- and supercharging, produce a staggering output of 609 horsepower and 1,000 Nm of torque. With a 34 kWh battery, Polestar 1 achieves an impressive all-electric range of 124 km (WLTP), standing as the plug-in hybrid with the longest electric range globally.
 
Polestar 1's body is crafted from carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP), reducing weight and lowering the center of gravity. This advanced material not only enhances performance but also allows for emotive styling cues that set Polestar 1 apart. A carbon fibre 'dragonfly' reinforces the chassis, showcasing Polestar's commitment to cutting-edge design and engineering.
 
Polestar's engineers meticulously developed the 'Polestar feeling,' focusing on driving dynamics. Noteworthy components like manually adjustable Öhlins Dual Flow Valve dampers and 6-piston Akebono brakes contribute to a thrilling driving experience. The torque vectoring algorithms, enabled by the dual rear electric motors, provide exceptional cornering and exhilarating acceleration.
 
Polestar 1 offers Pure, Hybrid, and Power drive modes, allowing drivers to tailor their experience. In Pure mode, the vehicle operates as a fully electric vehicle, while Hybrid mode seamlessly switches between electric and petrol power based on driver demand. Power mode unleashes the full 609 horsepower and 1,000 Nm, delivering a top speed of 250 km/h and a 0-100 km/h sprint in just 4.2 seconds.
