WILL SIBLING LOTUS BENEFIT?

Asked if the O2 could be mechanically linked to future models from Geely-owned sibling brand Lotus, Thomas Ingenlath said: “This concept we designed for Polestar, and every brand in the Geely group would like to use it and we are open to cooperation. But it has to serve the purpose of the brand, and I cannot talk here for other brands of the Geely group.

“When it comes to powertrain, us developing a powerful electric engine for top-line performance, this is technology that is not just solely interesting for the Polestar brand but that we consider sharing within the Geely group.”
