The Polestar Synergy Is As Mad As It Looks
Рет қаралды 344,351
Күн бұрынThree Polestar Design Contest winners collaborated on this supercar, and it’s now a full-scale model that we can prod and poke. Whilst it may or may not enter production any time soon (c'mon, Polestar), it'd be one heck of a rival to the BAC Mono, wouldn't it?
Polestar describes the end product as an ‘electric fantasy supercar’ that stands at just over one metre tall and 4.56 metres long. There’s a closed canopy, LED lighting and an excellent ‘hollowed-out’ look that was apparently inspired by a hammerhead shark.
How fast could it be? Polestar’s been remarkably coy about making up performance figures, but since it’s described as an electric supercar, we’re going to go with ‘very’.
So join TG's Tom Ford for a look at this could-be supercar then email Polestar immediately with the subject line “Just put it into production, will you?"

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.

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.

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.

@@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.
