We are proud of the momentum Polestar has built over the past several months and we look forward to the expected closing of our business combination this week.”

Thomas Ingenlath, CEO of Polestar, says, “Our listing on the Nasdaq in partnership with Gores Guggenheim will be a milestone moment for the company. Our team has been working hard and that work is paying off. We are excited about the future of Polestar and will continue to build world-class electric cars, grow the passionate customer community and expand into even more markets around the globe.”
