In this exclusive episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Imogen sits down with Michael Lohscheller, the newly appointed CEO of Polestar Cars. With a rich background spanning legacy giants like VW and Mitsubishi, to EV disruptors like Nikola and VinFast, Lohscheller shares his perspectives on navigating Polestar through a pivotal moment in the automotive industry and working towards profitability. Imogen and Michael delve into the challenges surrounding ramping up production and preparing for the launch of the Polestar 5 and 7, to tackling the impact of tariffs and global supply chain shifts. They also delve into Polestar’s strategy for sustainability, including its moonshot Polestar 0 project to create a truly climate-neutral vehicle, and what sets Polestar apart from competitors in an increasingly crowded EV market.
