    That is probably one of the best looking modern cars, I really hope this goes into production as I feel there is a distinct lack of convertible EV's. I honestly think an EV with the roof down would actually be fun to drive

    I kinda think MINI have missed a trick, here - unless there are some structural-bracing changes that would prevent this, you'd have thought it'd have been a relatively 'simple' job to have re-plumbed the EV bits from the MINI Electric 3dr in to the MINI Convertible...???

    Finally a truly modern design that doesn't look like all the other EVs out there. It looks hyperfuturistic without looking either cheesy or derivative, and it's just plain cool! I hope Polestar (Volvo) decides to make this a production model, because this would be one of the coolest cars out there PERIOD. Whoever the designers are, great job! This is a sexy EV looking right towards the future! It almost looks like what a Bang and Olufsen car would be if they decided to make a car instead of just high-end consumer electronics, aka minimalistic and ergonomic - typical modern Nordic design (which is a good thing).

  • @truecuckoo

    Polestar's most beautiful design yet, imo. With sustainability comes a certain expectation of responsibility though, raising an uncomfortable question. Producing a kinda luxury sports car convertible for the few that can afford and prioritise this type of vehicle in their lives… Is that the emission you want to prioritise when you want to lower emissions overall? Maybe it's worth it, to create a stellar and attractive electric car like this, just to inspire us all, and make waves in the industry?

    Not sure about the wheels but a very pretty car.
    Polestar in 20 years time (probably sooner) will be one of the most popular car companies.

    This is literally what i would expect switching to a greener solution. Not only running the car is a much more eco-friendly alternative, They also care about the production and use/reuse of the more sustainable materials, and to top it off you are getting a sweet car to enjoy. It's checking all the right boxes.

      ...unfortunately there are a buck load of anti ev community who will never look past their biases...using the same ol narrative of "green cars are not that green, when fossil is burned to charge it up". Which is kind of true but not quite, but theres no changing in the mindsets who are arrogant enough to think energy generation industry is somewhere still in the 70's.

    Wow ... kudos. A company that actually knows how to the design a car ... with Hyundai, this is one of the few good designs in the EV space. Finally.

    Okay nice idea and design. Except the tablet like interior controls. More buttons, tactile controls are always better...
