The Polestar 2 is a model of an electric car produced by which company?

The Polestar 2 is an battery electric 5-door lift back produced by the Swedish automaker Volvo under its Polestar sub-brand. Based on the Compact Modular Architecture (CMA) platform, production began in March 2020 at the Luqiao CMA Super Factory in Luqiao, China.

The concept car that precedes its design was called the Volvo Concept 40.2. It was designed by Thomas Ingenlath alongside the Volvo Concept 40.1, which later became the basis of the XC40. These two concept cars were both unveiled in 2016. However, Volvo decided to shift their focus to small crossovers later that year. Therefore, Polestar picked the 40.2 as the basis for their Polestar 2 design.

Volvo's exterior design chief Maximilian Missoni tweaked the car's taillights, grille, and wheels in order to differentiate it as a standalone vehicle. The Polestar 2 is also the first car with Google's Android Automotive operating system built in.
