Polestar is set to launch a production version of its Precept concept<\/a> in 2024, to be called the Polestar 5, and a set of patent drawings likely provide a look at the final design.<\/p>\n

The patent drawings, first spotted by Car and Driver<\/em><\/a>, were filed by Polestar with the European Union Intellectual Property Office on May 18 under the category for vehicles.<\/p>\n

They show a design very similar to 2020’s Precept concept but with new features you’d expect to see on a production car. The car in the patent drawings also matches the Polestar 5 shown in a teaser image last fall<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For example, the car in the patent drawings has lost the coach-style rear doors of the concept in favor of conventional doors. It also features conventional side mirrors instead of stalk-mounted cameras. The concept’s roof-mounted lidar system is also missing. Although the Polestar 5 is expected to feature lidar, it’s likely we see better packaging of the system.<\/p>\n

The Polestar 5 is a mid-size hatch designed to go up against the Porsche Taycan and high-end versions of the Tesla Model S. It’s confirmed to feature a Polestar-exclusive platform<\/a>, one featuring bonded aluminum construction and boasting better torsional rigidity than some two-door sports cars and even some supercars\u2014which is important considering Polestar sees itself as competition for Porsche<\/a>. Other Polestar models use platforms borrowed from fellow Geely brand Volvo.<\/p>\n

Before the Polestar 5 arrives, we’ll see a Polestar 3 mid-size SUV<\/a>. The Polestar 3 is a twin to the upcoming Volvo XC90 successor<\/a> and will be revealed in October. Also in the pipeline is a Polestar 4<\/a>, a Tesla Model Y rival that we’ll see sometime in 2023. Polestar has also shown a convertible concept<\/a>, though there aren’t any production plans for such a model just yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
