Polestar, the Swedish electric performance car brand, has started first deliveries of customer orders for the Polestar 2 electric performance fastback, in Sydney and Melbourne.
Since announcing the start of sales in February, Polestar has seen a surge in demand for its first model to launch in the Australian new car market, which is due to be followed by an SUV, the Polestar 3, expected to arrive in Australia in 2023.
“This is a very proud moment for everyone at Polestar as we commence official handovers to Australian owners just a few weeks after first going on-sale,” explains Samantha Johnson, Head of Polestar Australia. “Launching a new electric vehicle in Australia at a time when incentives are gaining momentum and more consumers are looking to accelerate their transition to EVs is very exciting.
“It’s great to be part of the journey, and we can’t wait to see more of our cars on Australian roads.”
Polestar’s convenient direct-to-consumer online model means Polestar 2 can be bought online, anytime and anywhere. The five-seat Polestar 2 combines minimalist Scandinavian design with powerful performance, intuitive technology and an over-arching commitment to sustainability.
Pricing for Polestar 2 starts at $59,900* for the Standard range Single motor version, and $64,900* for the Long range Single motor version. The Polestar 2 Long range Dual motor variant headlines the Polestar 2 model range, priced at $69,900*.
- Polestar 2 deliveries will commence in Queensland, the Australian Capital Territory, South Australia and Tasmania later in March 2022. Deliveries in Western Australia will start in April.
- Test drives are currently available in Sydney and Melbourne with new dates for Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth to be released shortly. Test drive bookings can be made at polestar.com/au
