Tap a passage. React to the part that matters.

Polestar unveiled its Formula 2030 concept on November 10, previewing design and technology planned for its next generation of electric cars.

Polestar revealed the Formula 2030 concept car on November 10, 2026, saying several of its design features will influence the next-generation Polestar 2 due in 2027 and the Polestar 7 SUV expected in 2028 in production form.

Formula 2030 is the first concept developed under Polestar's head of design, Philipp Römers, and takes the form of a low-slung four-door sports car. Inside, a curved 20-inch driver display sits behind the steering wheel and a separate 12.2-inch infotainment screen sits in the center console, and the concept deliberately combines the digital displays with customizable physical controls. It demonstrates three driving experiences, Performance, Normal and Autonomous, with a concealed LiDAR sensor worked into the roof design. Polestar has not announced that the next Polestar 2 or Polestar 7 will offer the same autonomous capability.

The discipline of the reveal is what it withholds. Polestar released no production-style specifications for the concept: no battery capacity, no power output, no range and no acceleration figures. It is a design study rather than a confirmed production car, and the company says only that several of its features will influence forthcoming models. Concept cars usually promise the future in numbers; this one promises it in shapes and screens, and leaves the engineering claims for the production cars that arrive in 2027 and 2028.
