Dubbed Polestar 1, the vehicle is “an electric performance hybrid GT” according to its makers which promises to deliver the longest pure-EV range of any hybrid vehicle currently on sale (150 km). It’s promised to be fast too, with 600 hp and 1,000 Nm torque, although actual performance figures have not yet been revealed.
