Electric car manufacturer Polestar is moving in to Bicester Heritage, becoming the newest resident of the award-winning Command Works.
Not only will Building 145 be the UK commercial head office from December 2022, but it will also be the public-facing Test Drive Hub.
Customers, existing and prospective, will get the chance to experience the industry-leading electric vehicles before ordering their new car online, learn more about Polestar products and speak to the in-house experts. It will also be an event space for the manufacturer.
“Bicester has an approach to automotive and future tech that really resonated with Polestar,” said Jonathan Goodman, head of Polestar UK. “As the first large-scale OEM to move to Bicester and, as an enthusiast marque, we expect we will fit in well with the other fantastic brands already on site.
"We will be an open and welcoming head office and we look forward to seeing Bicester Heritage visitors, as well as existing and future Polestar customers too.”
Daniel Geoghegan, chief executive of Bicester Motion, added: “Polestar’s committed approach to sustainability and the future of electric vehicles is truly inspiring. We are looking forward to their unique ethos contributing to the success of Bicester Motion.”
Polestar currently sells the 2 in the UK, with 3 expected later in 2022.
