The Swedish (and partly Chinese) Polestar had put a big red circle in the agenda today. Indeed, Volvo’s sporty and electrified little brother is cutting the ribbon of its very first factory today. It is Polestar CEO Thomas Ingenlath who cuts the red ribbon in half with scissors. That happened in Chengdu, China.
The opening of the factory immediately marks the start of the mass production of the Polestar 1. That happens just under two years after the new brand pulled the curtain off its first car. The first customers receive their sporty electrified coupe before the end of the year. The annual production must amount to 500 cars. Polestar is planning to build a total of 1,500 Polestars 1. Polestar works with the new technologies and robots in the factory.
Highly trained quality inspectors, with at least ten years of experience, keep an eye on things. The entire focus was placed on the environment when the factory was built. Polestar, however, does not sit still after the opening, because after the factory in Chengdu follows the construction of a factory in Luqiao, China. The first stone for this will be laid early next year.
