Michael Lohscheller said 2025 marked a record year with sales above 60,000 cars and revenue exceeding $3B, driven by expansion of the sales network and strength of the model lineup. Michael Lohscheller also said the company strengthened its balance sheet since June 2025 through $1.2B in equity injections, approximately $0.6B in debt-to-equity conversions, and a three-year extension of a $0.7B shareholder loan, while outlining plans to expand sales points by 20% in 2026 alongside four new models over the next three years, with a focus on cost reduction and financial discipline amid more challenging market conditions.
The company said it expects retail sales volumes to grow at a low double-digit rate in 2026, with continued emphasis on quality revenue, and noted the sales mix is expected to shift further toward the Polestar 4 coupe, its best-selling model, with the addition of a Polestar 4 SUV variant later in the year.
