Polestar has given a glimpse of its new 2 vehicle in a newly-released teaser shot.
Though details surrounding the car are limited for now, it is clear that the Polestar 2 will shun a hybrid powertrain in favour of an all-electric setup.
There are some ballpark figures for the car’s range and performance, and though they aren’t final, say that the 2 should be able to travel 300 miles on a full charge and push out just under 400bhp.
New year, new us. Reliance on combustion engines is coming to an end. The way forward is electric. This year we go all-in with the launch of the electric Polestar 2. pic.twitter.com/maN5DF7toI

Expected to be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in March, the 2 is thought to be a mid-size four-door saloon, taking aim at the likes of the Tesla Model 3.
Prices are expected to start at around £35,000, topping out at £50,000. Also, unlike the Polestar 1 which is available as a left-hand drive model only, the Polestar 2 will be available with the steering wheel on the right side.
It’s also hinted that the Polestar 2 will serve as the debut platform for Google Android HMI, which features Google’s new in-car version of its Assistant program.
Though likely to be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in March, buyers will have to wait until 2020 to get their hands on this latest Polestar product.
