The electric performance brand Polestar has confirmed that its O2 roadster concept will be put into production. As a result, it will follow Polestar’s naming process and be called the Polestar 6.

The O2 concept debuted earlier this year in March, based on the Polestar Precept which is also going to become a production model. With the overwhelming consumer and press response, we took the decision to put this stunning roadster into production and I am so excited to make it a reality,” says Thomas Ingenlath, Polestar CEO.

Like the O2 concept, the Polestar 6 will be a hard-top convertible sports EV based on the brand’s bonded aluminium platform. It boasts of an elegant yet stunning exterior design in concept form which should be able to make it to production with minimal changes. The concept boasted technological features like an autonomous drone that can be deployed to take epic driving shots of the O2 and to explore the route ahead.
