Recently, the global high-performance electric vehicle brand Polestar launched a new concept car - Polestar O2, a hard-top convertible. The new car will feature a new all-aluminium bonding platform developed by the Polestar UK team for the Polestar 5, which has the inherent advantages of tighter body control, extremely high rigidity and agile dynamic response.
In terms of appearance, the design language of Polar star O2 is in line with Polestar Precision, with a low body, short front suspension and long wheelbase, 2+2 compact cockpit design, and Polestar O2 also maximizes the endurance of the vehicle by optimizing the body aerodynamic design. Examples include the integration of in-flow air ducts on both sides of the wheels and body, and the use of tail lights with air guides to reduce spoilage.
Polestar O2 has widely used a new thermoplastic monomer material in the interior, that is, the use of monomer base materials to manufacture different interior accessories. Recycled polyester fiber materials are widely used as a single interior material on the soft parts of the car, including foam, adhesives, 3D knitted fibers and non-woven fabric lamination, which is not only conducive to simplifying the steps of recycling, but also reduces the weight and waste problems, which is an important step to improve the recyclability of materials.
Different grades of aluminium are used in the chassis, giving the driver an exciting driving experience. These different grades of aluminum have their own labels, which is conducive to easier and accurate classification in the future recycling process, retaining the characteristics of the material itself and improving recycling efficiency. High-grade aluminum will continue to maintain its performance after recycling, and other grades of aluminum will also maintain different characteristics, thereby improving the efficiency of material use and reducing the demand for primary aluminum.
In today's ubiquitous social media, polestar O2 is equipped with an automatic aerial drone behind the rear seat of the vehicle. Developed in collaboration with Aerofugia's consumer electronics brand Hoco Flow, the concept drone can take off while the car is driving and capture the perfect driving footage.
Polarstar engineers have developed an exclusive rear wing that creates a negative pressure area at the rear of the vehicle suitable for drone take-off, making it a smooth take-off even while the vehicle is on the move. The drone can operate fully automatically and automatically follow vehicles with a maximum speed of 90 km/h. Drivers can choose between "High Altitude Surround Mode" (ideal for coastal cruise shooting) or "Sport Follow-up" mode to record more dynamic driving shots. After the shooting is complete, the drone can automatically return to the car. When the vehicle is parked, the driver can edit and share video footage directly from the 15-inch center display.
Polestar Precept presents Polestar's vision for future design, pioneering technology and sustainable development, while Polestar O2 continues Polestar Pricept's vision. Polestar plans to launch 3 new cars in the next 3 years starting in 2022.
