Dynamic testing in Sweden for the Polestar 1 has testers evaluating steering, suspension and torque vectoring calibrations.
Prior to hitting the track, the Polestar 1 is tested to make sure all the systems are calibrated correctly.
Once out on the track, a handling course lets test drivers evaluate steering behavior and overall grip of the 600-horsepower hybrid coupe.
High-speed runs on a banked oval are also part of the dynamic evaluation of the Polestar 1.
Following dynamic testing, assembly of the final prototype versions of the Polestar 1 will begin in China.
