Polestar wants to open a research center in the Midlands.
Swedish electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Polestar announced today it will open a new research facility in the Midlands, creating employment opportunities for more than 800 people.
The firm, which has already a facility in the Midlands town of Nuneaton, has chosen the area once again because of the presence of both Formula 1 engineers and technicians working for luxury car makers such as Aston Martin and McLaren, the Financial Times reported.
“Our UK R&D team is one of Polestar’s greatest assets,” said the company’s chief executive Thomas Ingenlath. “Their mix of engineering and technological expertise enables us to develop advanced, lightweight sports car technology with a creative mindset and a spirit that embraces innovative engineering. This will set Polestar apart in the years to come.”
The company is currently working on developing the Polestar 5 model, which will have Polestar’s own proprietary technology including a bonded aluminum platform.
