The 2020 Polestar 1 is a head-scratcher. Gorgeous, for sure, but the design is an almost exact copy of a 2013 Volvo concept car. And then, Polestar is an all-electric brand, but its first car has a gasoline engine in it. So what happened? It's simple, once you understand the background: Polestar's CEO is the man who designed that Volvo Coupe Concept, so clearly he wanted to build his baby. And Polestar was initially intended to be a performance brand, but only later transitioned to EV. The Polestar 1 is both — an all-carbon-fiber, hand-built coupe with Öhlins shocks and a 619-horsepower hybrid-electric torque-vectoring powertrain. More importantly, it drives good as it looks. And that's exceedingly high praise. Learn all about the 2020 Polestar 1 with this walkaround review by journalist Jason Cammisa. This Spotlight episode includes video and sound of the Polestar accelerating and being pushed on a mountain road.
