Polestar is not challenging the U.S.’s decision to ban its cars from the 2027 model year.
The company said it will not appeal the ban, leaving dealers starving for answers.
The federal government banned the Chinese-owned EV maker from selling future models stateside over national security concerns.
Polestar fans in the United States should probably look for another car brand to follow, as the company has decided not to challenge the federal government’s recent ban. As a reminder, the Chinese-owned automaker’s future electric models were banned from the U.S. over national security concerns.
The Geely-backed EV-only manufacturer could have asked the U.S. Commerce Department to reconsider its decision, or it could have gone to court, especially since Volvo, which is also owned by Geely, was allowed to continue to sell connected vehicles stateside. However, Polestar has decided to exit the U.S. market, the company’s spokesperson told The Wall Street Journal.
