Introducing the Polestar 2: Interior features

The Polestar 2 is widely regarded as one of the most complete electric cars on the market. Its slick, minimalist design is like something from the future. Its ability to deliver powerful performance while remaining true to the companies roots in sustainability - makes it unique.

We’ve taken a deep dive into the distinctive and innovative features that this car offers, so you can discover exactly what you’re getting when you rent a Polestar 2 from us.

LED lights

Energy-efficient LED lights, designed in a unique light-blade and origami-inspired design, are instantly recognizable as Polestar. These smart lights, using a sensor hidden in the windshield to detect other cars’ headlights or taillights, automatically adjust their brightness between high or low-beam to avoid dazzling other drivers.
