Polestar is one of the new disruptors in the EV space. As Volvo's electric-vehicle brand, it aims to combine high-tech features with a modern Swedish look.

Charging Polestar electric vehicles
For Level 1 and Level 2 charging, Polestar EVs and PHEVs use the industry-standard SAE J1772 connector in North America. Charging times vary depending on the charging station used.
Level 3 DC fast charging: CCS Combo
The Polestar 1 PHEV would benefit most from a fast home charger; however, the Polestar 2 EV supports fast charging up to 150 kW. Polestar claims that through fast charging, the battery can be charged to 80% in 40 minutes.
