Polestar is done in the U.S. market. Its sister brand Volvo, owned by the same Chinese parent company, was spared. No one has explained why.

    Being an American wanting an electric car must be a nightmare! Not many options, and all of them are too expensive,

    Chevy Bolt MSRP is $28,995.

      I’m waiting to see if Slate can hit their crazy $24,950 target base price. With a 65kWh battery, that’s a pretty great price. That’s almost cheaper than buying batteries alone. I’m wondering if it will be able to do home backup power.

      Just looked it up, GM claims it has a 65 kWh battery, and 150 kW DC charging rate. That’s not bad.
      But it’s only 1 option. Where in Denmark we have 16 options below $25,000.
