Kuopio and its surrounding areas are a very important market area, and with a strong partner, we can offer existing and new customers in the area even more comprehensive service and the right kind of brand experience. Our lineup has just grown with two new models, with the Polestar 2 being joined by two new models – the big Polestar 4 coupé and the larger Polestar 3 SUV. With the novelties, interest in our brand has grown even more and we made an all-time market share in 2024. For the current year, we will continue to pursue growth, and expectations are high."
