The U.S. Department of Commerce has effectively banned Polestar from importing its vehicles into the United States starting with the 2027 model year. This decision stems from a 2025 rule targeting connected-vehicle technology linked to China or Russia, a rule enforced by the current administration. Consequently, Polestar will cease U.S. sales of models imported from its China facility, though it will continue production of its Polestar 3 model in South Carolina and maintain sales and service for existing vehicles. The company plans to focus its growth strategy on markets outside the U.S., particularly Europe. AI
