Volvo Polestar 1

In an effort to take the luxury electric car fight to Tesla, Volvo spun off its Polestar performance sub-brand into its own marque last year, with the first of three cars introduced in October: the Polestar 1 coupe. This 600-horsepower sports car makes its global debut at the Geneva Motor Show today, and as you can see, it packs one electrified punch.

Polestar has its own booth at the show, sitting snugly next to Volvo’s exhibition area, which marks the fledging brand’s first major auto show appearance. It only has one model for now, but Polestar promises two more EVs will follow in the next decade. The Polestar 2 will likely be an EV sedan or sportback, with the Polestar 3 confirmed by Volvo to be an SUV.
