And so Polestar works hard to demonstrate some history that goes back to the 90s, a history in motorsport, a history that aligns with development in step with Volvo, an established brand with a long history.

So we draw on that.

Like a DNA trace essentially.

You're kind of doing your family tree for people.

That's it.

Yeah, face the family tree.

Run the family tree back and you'll see –

that we are Swedish through and through and that there's a whole heap of Volvo in there as well.

We've done the motorsport thing.

We employ engineers that know how to make a car handle.

We employ people that know how to make a car last and make a car look good.

It's interesting.

I was lucky enough to travel to Sweden and spend some time in the design studio there.

And that's not an easy place to get into.

There's a bit of cloak and dagger in that.

And in speaking with the designers, just talking about some of the designs that

prevalent in electric cars now and ours do seem to stand out.

Why is that?

And they said, well, we take a lot longer to design a car than a lot of brands delivering vehicles to market in Australia at the moment.

We take that time to stand back from the car and ensure that it's going to look good from every angle in every light condition for 20 years.
