Polestar reported higher sales in the fourth quarter of 2025, with retail volumes rising 27% year over year to 15,608 vehicles. Full-year 2025 retail sales totaled about 60,119 vehicles.<\/p>\n
Europe accounted for about 78% of Polestar\u2019s sales over the past year, as conditions in the United States and China became more challenging due to weaker demand and stronger competition.<\/p>\n
The company has shifted away from an online-first, direct-to-consumer approach toward a dealer-led model. Its sales network expanded by more than 50% during 2025, excluding China.<\/p>\n
Polestar also closed its physical retail sites in China. U.S. tariffs weighed on margins and drove supply chain changes, including shifting production locations to Europe and South Korea.<\/p>\n
In December 2025, Polestar announced a $300 million equity investment from Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria and Natixis, with $150 million from each institution, alongside a planned conversion of about $300 million of Geely-related debt into equity. Polestar also secured a subordinated term loan facility of up to $600 million through Geely Sweden Holdings AB, with the final $300 million subject to lender consent based on future liquidity needs.<\/p>\n
Polestar carried out a change in its American depositary shares (ADS) ratio from 1:1 to 1:30 in December and later received notice that it had regained compliance with the Nasdaq stock exchange\u2019s minimum bid price requirement.<\/p>\n
A strategy update covering product updates and financial outlook is scheduled for February 18, 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
