Is the 2024 Polestar 5 the Swedish answer to the Porsche Taycan and Audi e-tron GT? The electric four-door coupe also features the upcoming Polestar 3 SUV.

Polestar 5 production remains true to last year's striking Precept concept.

Polestar has given the world a preview of its upcoming flagship GT model, dubbed the Polestar 5, ahead of its 2024 global release.

This is the first time Polestar has officially confirmed a production model name since revealing the striking Precept concept early last year.

Staying true to the Precept concept, the Polestar 5 also carries styling cues for the upcoming Polestar 3 SUV, which is expected to be unveiled soon.

In a series of videos detailing the process from concept to production car, Polestar's designers say the idea was to create a concept that wasn't too far from production reality, rather than just being a pipe dream of car designers.

The overall silhouette and shape are consistent with the Precent concept, but the 5th version has some features that are more suitable for the production model.

While the rear doors of the concept open back, the five has regular doors, although the handles are still flush with the body. External rear view cameras have also been replaced by traditional mirrors.

The sharp rear end design with square taillights and flush tailgate and split headlights remained.

A quick look at the interior reveals that the 15-inch portrait tablet screen and minimalist digital instrument cluster carry over to the production model.

Is the 2024 Polestar 5 the Swedish answer to the Porsche Taycan and Audi e-tron GT? The electric four-door coupe also features the upcoming Polestar 3 SUV. The Polestar Precept concept was revealed in early 2020.

It's unclear what electric powertrain the 5 will take, but given the performance of the Polestar, expect different model classes with a sporty option.

The Polestar 5 will compete with the likes of the Porsche Taycan and Audi e-tron GT when it goes on sale in 2024.

The Swedish high-performance electric vehicle brand, which is owned by Volvo's parent company China's Geely Holdings, has just launched the Polestar 2 four-door sports sedan in Australia.

2 is a direct competitor to the Tesla Model 3 and costs between $59,900 and $69,900 before travel expenses.

The next cab in the ranking will be the Polestar 3 large SUV, due to be unveiled and released in 2022.

It's based on the same new SPA2 architecture that will underpin the next generation Volvo XC90, but Polestar CEO Thomas Ingenlath says the 3 will be much more than just a rebadged XC90, with its own design and styling, according to CarsGuide. taste.

After that, the Polestar 4 small SUV will appear, and in 2024 the Polestar 5 will be launched.

Australia missed out on the Polestar 1 coupe as it was only built for left hand drive markets.
