Polestar has announced today that it will no longer sell cars in the United States starting with the 2027 model year. The US Department of Commerce did not grant the automaker authorization to sell cars under the new US Connected Vehicles Rule.
The new regulation, announced in 2025 to start for the 2027 model year, restricts the import and sale of certain cars with connected vehicle technology linked to China or Russia. Polestar is owned by Volvo and Geely Holding Group, the Chinese corporation that operates Geely Auto.
