@@itsbrendoni3444 yeah... its still in the code, some might even have been modeled already but license is missing... same with GT Sport, and that one had the Evora playable in the beta
Saw it in Gothenburg the first weekend of December and I must say it is just sensationelly good looking. Crisp lines and not a single out-of-place or unneccesary detail. Possibly the best looking supercar (concept) I have ever seen. Very much in the vein of Daniel Simon, the vehicle designer of the Tron - Legacy movie, who incidently happens to be one of my all-time favorite designers.
@@scottshipley570 there was one at a parking lot close to me. I took pictures to send to my dad to show how hideous it was, but then the owner walked up. He thought I was taking a picture because I liked it and I couldn’t bring myself to roast his vehicle in his face😂
@@hardhoofdful You should have. Any dickhead that causes other people to look at an XM by driving it around should be shamed and humiliated. No good person will to that to their fellow citizens.
Beautiful design, it will be amazing if polestar produces something with this design. I don't know why, but remembers me of the Ford GT90 Concept, but way modern.
0:45 Its pronounced with a soft G… like “gym” when you say “GEE-LEE”. Not a hard G like “glue” this would be totally incorrect. Just go listen to their presentation at Shanghai Auto Show 2023 - their own presenter is a reputable source.
Would love to see a modern supercar from polestar. Over thanksgiving on a trip with my family we rented a polestar 3 and I was very impressed. I love gas cars but electric is the future and I hope companies like this can bring electric cars into the fun-sporty market soon!
No you didn't, the Polestar 3 utterly boring overpriced SUV is not yet in production. The Polestar 2 that you probably rented is okay but it's not better than a Tesla Model 3.
@@skierpage My bad your right, it was a polestar 2. I've had the pleasure to ride in a model 3 performance as well though, it's a good car but in comparison to the polestar it was underwhelming in styling, interior, and it was awhile ago that I rode in it so I can't speak at the speed. Overall I much prefer polestar from my experience.
The relaunched show from 2002 (it wasn’t the original, that started in 1977) did have its moments. However, those good days were long gone even when Clarkson, Hammond and May were still there. It had got boring, old, stale and repetitive. That’s why The Grand Tour ended so soon. Anyway, this is from TG magazine. Not the TV show.
lol homie doesn’t know that OG top gear wasn’t the one with Hammond and May. And it’s been 8 years since Clarkson acted like a child and got fired for punching someone over having the wrong lunch. It’s time to move on.
I love how they put so much energy into designing something so epic. Then deciding not to make it and continue to build cars people could care less about.
Yeah screw them for making cars I see almost daily instead of making a car that would be in a few mobile racing games and like three people would actually drive one in real life.
As I was watching this video I kept feeling like I've seen these cars before, or at least that they looked familiar, and then it hit me. I used to habitually browse concept vehicles on Artstation 3-4 years ago and this was the exact type of design aesthetic which was beginning to take hold at the time. If you averaged out a bunch of the concept car sketches I saw from artists at the time and morphed them into something that could be produced, you'd get these Polestars. Cool to see those images and sketches come to reality.
@@joakimkn1 I meant like manifested into a physical vehicle. I know the concept car won't be mass produced but it does exist as an object. The design stuff I was talking about also applies to the other cars they're working on, hopefully those do hit the roads when Polestar say they will.
@@CockatooDude it's barely a car. The suspension pieces are obviously fake, so I doubt it even can roll around, and the descriptions of the interior features were accompanied by CGI renders. And Faraday Future's FFZERO01 from 7 years ago was even cooler and wilder.
@@skierpage Yes, this concept car isn't nearly close to functional. I was just referring to it being cool that designs I saw in 2D are being applied to something that even if not functional, exists in the real world as an object. Hopefully the more production oriented cars which Polestar mentioned in the video will exist as proper road cars, though only time will tell.
But way more fun. If performance figures were an indication of fun, then a Tesla S Plaaaaiid would be more fun to drive than a Ferrari F40.. which it isn´t :)
Well im a muscle car fanatic,but i could see me owning one,would make a great vehicle for people that have to drive very far to and from work,say you have to drive 50 or a 100 miles to get to work,then that distance again to get home,once you get home just plug it up and be ready to go the next day,think about how much you would save on fuel cost!!
High powered BEVs are basically modern Muscle Cars. It's make them agile and light weight that is difficult. But good old brute force straight line speed and smoking tires is what a Polestar should do well.
More Polestar Trilogy than Synergy; a Sci-Fi movie Product Placement item than the car itself. Mind-bending achievement for Volvo's EV design revolution. These design trio deserve an Oscar for this stunningly futuristic Concept. Just think what Saab could have evolved into today! 🤦♂
The battery capacity and motor power specifications are "no problem"... except that the battery would need to fit within that body. And that's a real problem.
Take a look at a Polestar 2. It has a square full of descriptive text low on the doors, like the laundry tag on a piece of clothing. This utterly fake concept has a QR code to be even cooler.
You know.... given that other company went with S.3.X.Y..... Polestar's naming is more than fine, it feels almost normal. It's unremarkable, in a sea of flashy... which makes it stand out as far as names go.
Do a series named: Concept vs Production, could be fun, also we could learn not to get money fro manufacturers to present basicaly nothing. 😀 This should be "presented to you by Polestar".
Top Gear always sound more positive when speaking about a British car, not only that they will mention its British 100 times per video. Not even once is it mentioned that this car is Swedish...
Just to be clear, the point of these conceptual design programmes is to help the development teams to stretch their imagination and explore technical boundaries. If it wasn’t a valuable process the car companies wouldn’t fund them. And yes, the eye catching results help enhance the reputation of the brand and give mouth breathers, like the one in this video, something to create “content” with.
though it was funny that the designers were two indian and a chinese but then a though that china plus india represents a third of the world's population so i guess the probability isn't that low
oh dear iPad in the middle of the dash of the polestar 3. Please car makers stop doing this. The Concept car has what i would call a proper useable dash.
