Polestar Create 'Fantasy Electric Supercar’. Electric vehicle manufacturer Polestar has brought the winning design from its latest Polestar Design Contest to life in the form of a 1:1 scale model. The Polestar Synergy combines three winning designs that emerged victorious from a pool of over 600 entries in the competition. Both winning exterior designers, Devashish Deshmukh and Swapnil Desai, hail from Paris, France. Deshmukh’s design drew inspiration from hollowed-out volumes, inspired by the elegance of a hammerhead shark while Desai's design centered on emotional durability, with a focus on technical upgradability and materials that age gracefully over time. The interior designer, Yingxiang Li, based in China, crafted a cabin with a performance-oriented seating position, offering a novel experience focused on "floating comfort and control”. Despite its compact stature, standing at just 3 feet 6.1 inches tall and measuring 14 feet 11.5 inches in length, the car boasts proportions and details previously unseen from the brand, creating a striking supercar silhouette. Following its debut at the International Automobile Exhibition 2023 in Munich, the 1:1 scale model will journey to the United States where it will headline the Hot Wheels Legends Tour in El Segundo, California, starting from 7 October 2023.
