Be part of the change

Chasing zero emissions

Whichever way you look at it, electric cars are better than traditionally fuelled ones. However, the fuel you use to power your car can further impact its footprint. Swapping fossil fuels for electricity already cuts your CO2 emissions by 18 tonnes per year, but recharging your Polestar using renewable energy can reduce it to almost zero.
