EVs, NVES and Novated Leasing: Scott Maynard Talks the Future of Driving Electric
In this episode of the Fleet News Group Podcast, we sit down with Scott Maynard, Managing Director of Polestar Australia, to unpack his first year in the role and how the brand is staying true to its sustainability roots while scaling up. Scott shares insights on Polestar’s changing sales model, its role in backing the NVES policy during a contentious election campaign, and how the local market has responded to the launch of Polestar 3 and the high-performance, low-emission Polestar 4 – now the brand’s best-selling model. We also explore: How novated leasing has accelerated EV adoption, now accounting for 60% of Polestar’s orders Why Polestar believes "we don't have a sustainability strategy, we have a sustainable business strategy" The future of bi-directional charging with Polestar 3 and V2G tech Local testing of the upcoming Polestar 5 and the anticipated arrival of Polestar 7, a compact SUV built for Australia’s most popular vehicle segment The road ahead for EV adoption in Australia and what it will take to reach critical mass As Scott puts it, “Some myths were never true, and others are long gone – the tech has moved on, and so have we.”
