Polestar delivered approximately 12,800 cars in the fourth quarter, including 880 Polestar 4 in China, taking its global deliveries for the year to approximately 54,600 cars, a growth of 6% compared to 2022.

Polestar continues to protect its exclusive brand position in what remains a challenging market, resulting in fewer deliveries in the fourth quarter and now expects a gross profit margin for the full year of around break-even.

Thomas Ingenlath, Polestar CEO, comments: “Polestar 4 has been very well received in China and ramping up production was an important milestone for us. Sales of our SUV coupé will start in Europe and Australia in the coming weeks. With the first deliveries of Polestar 3 expected in the summer, our shift from being a one to three-car company positions us for a transformative and exciting 2024.”

Polestar expects to post its preliminary unaudited financial and operational results for the full year 2023 on Thursday, 29 February 2024, before market open in New York. A live audio webcast is scheduled to start at 08:00 US Eastern Time (14:00 Central European Time).

From Thursday, 15 February 2024, verified shareholders will be able to ask questions through the Say Technologies platform, accessible via the Polestar Investor Relations website.
