The Polestar 2 was Initially Launched with Google Android Automotive OS

It seemed only right that Polestar 2 was initially launched
with the Google Android Automotive OS. After all, this dedicated automotive
operating system offers a suite of features specifically designed for vehicles.

Being available exclusively on the Polestar 2, newcomer’s to
EV’s can look forward to an advanced infotainment system within their car
sporting not just tried and tested Google products and maps, but new and
optimized apps from the Polestar product portfolio such as Eva – its home of
voice control and AI-enabled features for a safe driving experience.

In June 2021, YouTube joined the fray, enabling passengers
to enjoy their favorite shows in full HD on tablets that act as remote
displays. Rounding out this roster of apps is the inclusion of ingenious
navigation aids such as Waze, EasyPark and A Better Route Planner to help you
get to your destination quicker than ever before.

What’s more, the Range Assistant was released at the same
time too – an app that ensures you always have enough charge to complete your
journey. But what Polestar 2 owners really enjoy is having access to a surplus
of entertainment options throughout their travels.

Polestar 2 has Already Crossed the Production Milestone Mark of 150,000
Last Month

It looks like 2023 has already been a monumental milestone
for Polestar! Last month, the electric luxury vehicle brand announced their
150,000th unit off the production line. This impressive landmark can be
attributed to increasing demand for the company’s flagship, the Polestar 2 – an
all-electric five-door fastback with a range of up to 480 km.

Now that mass-production has been achieved, Polestar plans
on taking their vehicles to the next level – literally! To start with, they
plan on adopting Tesla’s NACS charging plugs in order for drivers to enjoy
greater convenience and flexibility when it comes to charging.

This new charging plug is expected be included as standard
equipment starting from next spring along with the introduction of improved
production efficiency. Amidst great progress, Polestar is also gearing up for a
brand-new production plant in South Carolina, set to begin operation sometime
next year.

The facility will spearhead the building of the upcoming
Polestar 3 – a stylish mid-sized SUV offering competitive price points and
longer driving range than ever before. Once complete, this new base of
operations would be the second manufacturing hub for Polestar outside of China,
casting a more net-wide production effort.
