Polestar has cut the emissions of each electric car it produces by a quarter since 2020 - and it has done so without radical technologies or materials, instead targeting the “low-hanging fruit”.
Speaking to Autocar ahead of the publication of Polestar’s latest sustainability report, Polestar sustainability boss Fredrika Klarén explained that the substantial reduction in cradle-to-grave CO2 is in large part due to how Polestar now sources materials.
Since the start of Polestar 2 production in 2020, it has swapped from traditional sources of aluminium and steel to metal that has either already been recycled or has been smelted using renewable electricity.
