'Hhayi nje iVolvo eqanjwe kabusha': I-Polestar 2023 yango-3 ne-Polestar 2024 GT 5 zizokwakha kanjani kabusha ukusebenza kwe-Swedish kanye nesimo sokuklama

I-Polestar ichaza ukuthi izinhlobo zesikhathi esizayo zizobabona besuka kude nomzali wabo wakwaVolvo uma kuziwa ekwakhiweni nasekusebenzeni.

Bekhuluma nabezindaba base-Australia lapho kwethulwa khona i-Polestar 2 crossover, abaphathi be-Polestar bachaze kabanzi ukuthi uhlobo olusha olusebenzisa ugesi kuphela luzokhukhuleka kanjani enkampanini engumzali iVolvo njengoba kukhishwa amamodeli wesikhathi esizayo.

Nakuba i-Polestar izoqhubeka nokwabelana ngezinkundla zayo kanye neningi lama-powertrains ayo kagesi nenkampani engumzali iVolvo, ulimi lomklamo walo mkhiqizo luzoshintsha lube into eyingqayizivele.

“I-SUV elandelayo ngeke kube iVolvo XC90 ekhishwe kabusha,” kuchaza i-CEO yakwaPolestar uThomas Ingenlath, ekhuluma ngePolestar 3 SUV, okulindeleke ukuthi yethulwe ngo-2022.

“Izoba ne-wheelbase efanayo nenani layo eliningi njenge-XC90, kodwa umkhiqizo esizowubeka phezu kwaleyo nkundla kuzoba i-SUV ethize kakhulu ye-aerodynamic – cabanga ngekhasimende le-Porsche Cayenne.”

Ukuqhathanisa kwe-Porsche kwaqhubeka: “Inguqulo yokukhiqiza yomqondo we-Precept [okulindeleke ukuthi ibe i-Polestar 5] ayiyona i-limousine esheshayo. Izilinganiso zayo ziholela ekuqhathaniseni okunembe kakhulu nePorsche Panamera kunemoto efana neVolvo S90. Sidinga ukuqhathanisa ukuze abantu baqonde ukuthi kuzoba njani."

“Ngesikhathi sidala i-Polestar, kwacaca ukuthi kunendaba engaphezu kweyodwa esingayixoxa ngomklamo waseScandinavia; IVolvo nePolestar zizohluka."

UMnu. Ingenlath, ekuqaleni owayengumklami ngokwakhe, waze wakhomba u-Saab njengomdlali womlando waseScandinavia owake waletha umklamo oyingqayizivele emhlabeni wezimoto, ukusekela umbono wokuthi kungaba khona abantu ababili abahlukene ekwakhiweni kwezimoto zase-Swedish.

Uphinde waveza ukuthi eziningi zezici zesiginesha zombono wakamuva we-Polestar GT zizofakwa kumamodeli wokukhiqiza wesikhathi esizayo.

I-Precept, umqondo we-GT enezicabha ezine owethulwe ngoFebruwari 2020, inkulu kune-Polestar 2 futhi ibonisa izici zedizayini emisha, ikakhulukazi ekupheleni kwayo nomsila, eziqhelanisa nezakhi zezabelo ezi-2 nabazala bayo bakwa-Volvo.

UMnu. Ingenlath uveze ukuthi izinto eziningi zomqondo we-GT Precept zizofakwa kumamodeli esikhathi esizayo omkhiqizo omusha.

Okugqama kakhulu amalambu ahlukene ahlukene, ukususwa kwegrille, isiteringi esisha nama-floating consoles ngaphambili nangemuva.

Njengozakwabo we-Tesla, i-Precept ifaka isikrini esithintwayo esikhudlwana esingu-15-intshi kumodi yokuma ngobude, futhi umkhiqizo uthembisa ukuthi inguqulo yokukhiqiza izokwakhiwa "ekubambisaneni eduze ne-Google."

Ingaphakathi lenziwe kakhulu ngezinto ezigaywe kabusha nezisimeme, njengokumbozwa ngamabhodlela e-PET agaywe kabusha, amanetha okudoba asetshenziswe kabusha, kanye nokhokho ogaywe kabusha. Njenge-Hyundai Ioniq 5, i-Precept inezinhlanganisela ezisekelwe ku-flax ezisetshenziselwa izinto ngaphakathi nangaphandle kwemoto.

Ekhuluma ngokuthi amamodeli esikhathi esizayo azowuchaza kanjani umehluko phakathi kwePolestar nenkampani engudadewabo yakwaVolvo, uMnu. Ingenlath uthe: “Wonke umuntu uyayazi iVolvo njengomkhiqizo onethezekile, olungele umndeni futhi ophephile.

“Asikaze sifune ukwakha imoto yezemidlalo engundabamlonyeni njengePrecept, kuvele kwacaca ukuthi uma sifuna ukuya ngakhona kumele sakhe iPolestar.

“I-Volvo yomndeni; okugxile kumuntu, okuhlanganisa konke. I-Polestar ithanda umuntu ngamunye, inezemidlalo. Uzowuzwa ngokushesha umehluko phakathi kwalezi zimbili [iVolvo nePolestar] endleleni ezishayela ngayo.”

I-Precept ihlanganisa izici eziningi zedizayini ezintsha ezingakabonwa kumodeli yokuqala yemakethe enkulu yomkhiqizo, i-Polestar 2.

Inguqulo yokukhiqiza yalo mqondo kulindeleke ukuthi ibe yi-flagship i-Polestar 5 kusukela ngo-2024 futhi ijoyine i-SUV Polestar 3 enkulu kusukela ngo-2022. Eyakamuva izolandelwa iPolestar 4 SUV encane ephakathi nendawo, enomnqamulajuqu ka-2023.

Inkundla entsha ezosekela izimoto ze-Volvo ne-Polestar zesikhathi esizayo (ebizwa ngokuthi i-SPA2) izoqala nge-Polestar 3, futhi i-powertrain esezingeni eliphezulu ithuthukiswa ngokukhethekile ukuze i-Polestar isize ukuqinisa isithembiso sayo sokusebenza.

Injini, ebizwa ngokuthi "P10", izokwazi ukuletha amandla afinyelela kwangu-450kW ngesakhiwo senjini eyodwa noma angu-650kW ngesakhiwo esinenjini emibili, esidonsa ngawo wonke amasondo (okuthembisa ukusebenza okuphezulu kunenjini efanayo yakwaPorsche neTesla). ifakwe ugesi omusha onamagiya amabili, ngokusho kwephepha elimhlophe lomtshali-zimali.

Umqondo we-Precept ubonisa into entsha yokuqondisa kanye nedizayini ye-fascia ebhanqiwe kakhudlwana.

Njengabancintisana nabo, i-architecture yesizukulwane esisha nayo izodlulela ku-800V futhi ifake ukushaja kwe-bi-directional, okungatholakali okwamanje ku-Polestar 2. Zonke izinhlobo zesikhathi esizayo ze-Polestar zihlelelwe ukuthi zibe nebanga le-WLTP enyakatho ye-600km.

I-Polestar 2 izotholakala ku-inthanethi kuphela futhi abathengi bazokwazi ukufaka ama-oda ngoJanuwari 2022 ukuze balethwe ngoFebruwari.
