This is such a typical VOC "argument", lol

A separate "EV" sub-forum sounds reasonable.

Polestar used to be the race team. Up to and including the T6 V60 Polestar they did indeed take production cars off the line in Goteborg and ship them across the road to Polestar to do their thing.

So they were Polestar cars with a Volvo badge up front, serviced and sold through Volvo dealers. Some body bits were shipped in the boot and fitted by the final dealer, and so on.

Since then Polestar is now "just" a Volvo sub-brand, like "M" or "AMG" or "S". Or perhaps more like "Nismo" or "Infinity" or "Lexus".

Either way, they're all Volvos, lol.
