Swedish automotive powerhouse has released another beautiful addition to their portfolio. This is the second BST car to be manufactured and it will be limited to only 230 units.
Just like it’s predecessor, the 270, it was built with elegance and style.
“Limited drops like the BST edition 230 allow us to explore colours, graphics and materials in faster and more creative ways,” says Thomas Ingenlath, Polestar CEO.

The 230 is the only edition to feature MicroSuede upholstery in Charcoal. Produced with partly recycled Nubuck textile, it provides a more sustainable, high-tech alternative to leather with a sophisticated, sporty feel. The suede texture helps to limit body movement when tapping into the performance potential.
To enhance the limited edition feeling, the cockpit features light-coloured piping and contrasting stitching and MicroSuede is implemented into the steering wheel inserts for more grip.
Paired with Bespoke Pirelli P-Zero tyres (245/35 R21), the 230 comes with 21” Gloss black diamond cut alloy wheels, a BST edition.
The dampers for the car, according to Polestar are engineered for precise, hands-on tuning, these custom-made 2-way adjustable front dampers can easily be set up for various driving environments. Combined with the updated Dual Flow Valve rear dampers and 20% stiffer springs, they take the handling into sports car territory.

- Lowered ride height (-25mm)
