Polestar Synergy Reveals An Exciting New Aspect Of Electric Supercars

Polestar just talked about a really cool idea they call "Synergy." The company showed it off at the 2023 Munich Motor Show.

It's all about speed, cutting-edge tech, being eco-friendly, and getting ideas from nature. It's like a design contest gave birth to a dream racecar!

Polestar Synergy

How did it come to be? Polestar held a design contest, and 600 people entered. The top three designs were then chosen. Two of them, who resided in France, created the exterior, and someone from China completed the interior.

The winners worked for six months with Polestar's design pros to come up with this idea. We should admit, the outcome is really fascinating. Take for instance the big wheel openings, the huge splitter in front, and the really cool lightbar at the back. The hammerhead shark served as inspiration for the design, which is all about style and technology. The Polestar Synergy stands 1.07 meters high and is 4.65 meters long.

Inside, there is only one seat, and it has a sports feel. You get a race harness, a digital visor display, and lots of little screens that tell you things like how much battery you have left. Instead of a traditional dashboard, there is a big computerized display that floats above the driver. Meanwhile, the yoke-style driving wheel has its own screen. The Synergy will never be made, which is a shame, but it's interesting to see creative minds at work.

"This year, the story is as much about collaboration as performance," said Maximillian Missoni, head of design at Polestar. “It’s not often student designers receive such exposure at the start of their career, something the Polestar Design Community on Instagram does so well, amplified this year by the 1:1-scale model and its planned tour of Polestar locations around the world.”
