It is designed to shape the Polestar 2
The current Polestar 2 is no longer in production. Now, a bold concept car shows what the successor will look like – at least for now.

Formula 2030 is a low, four-door concept car that demonstrates the direction Polestar intends to take by 2030.
Most of it can be considered mere show car fantasies for now. One detail, however, is clear: Polestar itself states that the front lights give an indication of the design for the next generation of Polestar 2.
The rear lights feature a new Single Blade signature that will also be used on upcoming production models.
And it must be said that this looks promising. The front is low and clean, but the vertical driving lights give the car enough distinctiveness so it doesn’t blend in with the crowd.
A possible station wagon
The production of the current Polestar 2 has ended, although there are still some inventory cars to be delivered.
But a completely new generation is planned to be launched in early 2027.
The body style has not yet been confirmed. From the side and rear, it’s still easy to interpret the Formula 2030 concept as a type of shooting brake or low station wagon.
Polestar itself describes the concept as a four-door sports car. If the successor to the Polestar 2 adopts more than just the front end design, it could become the electric station wagon many have been waiting for.
The trunk hasn’t been completely removed. The Geely group owns both Polestar and Zeekr, which already sells the Swedish-designed station wagon 7GT.
A touch of Saab in the mix?
It’s also hard to overlook certain Saab influences.
The black glass canopy surrounding the cockpit, along with the wide rear section, evokes memories of the latest generation Saab 9-5.
The large panels that open like wings, along with the nearly wing-inspired canopy over the cockpit, draw comparisons to the Saab Aero X concept car.
Buttons make a comeback
Inside, there’s still a strong sense of a concept car. The Formula 2030 features a 20-inch curved dashboard, a 12.2-inch center screen, and a steering wheel that resembles a flight stick.
What’s more interesting is that Polestar intends to bring back physical controls. There are eight buttons and switches under the center screen that can be customized for various functions.
The battery capacity, range, charging speed, price, and finally the body style are currently unknown. But if Polestar continues with its low roofline, long hood, and new front end, the new Polestar 2 could become as rare as an electric vehicle that resembles a station wagon more than an SUV.
