Polestar's engineering facility in Coventry, UK, finalizes the bonded aluminum monocoque for the Polestar 5, achieving torsional rigidity that rivals supercar architectures.

Chassis Engineering: Developed by Formula 1 alumni in the UK, the Polestar 5 bonded aluminum spaceframe achieves higher torsional stiffness than two-seat supercars while accommodating a 103kWh low-profile battery pack.

Dual-Motor 800V Architecture

The rear electric motor integrates a rear disconnect clutch and silicon carbide inverter, producing 650Nm of torque to launch the 4-door GT to 62mph in 3.1 seconds.

Rear Windowless Aerodynamics

Like the Polestar 4, the Polestar 5 eliminates the rear window in favor of an HD roof-mounted camera, allowing structural rear roof headers to shift backward for expansive rear passenger headroom.
