The Polestar 5 is the latest model slated to debut from the automaker. A spinoff from Volvo Cars, the Polestar brand focuses solely on performance-oriented electric vehicles. The EV marque came to fruition in 2017 with the introduction of the Polestar 1 plug-in hybrid sports coupe. That model saw limited production and was ultimately discontinued in 2022. Subsequent production model releases followed a numerical order rather than receiving distinctive model or segment names—unless it's a concept, of course.
