Instead of a rear window, a wide camera

The design, a distinguishing feature of Polestarhere he steps forward more brave: not only a simplified line that can hide the soul of an SUV – the platform on which the base is the same as the 3 – but a revolutionary option that will not fail to cause discussion. In fact, instead of the rear window, the camera is attached to the rear mirror, a solution that, according to Polestar technicians, allows a wider view. than what the back row would allow in front of a traditional rear window. As Volvo teaches (the connections are obvious and very close), safety is the primary guarantee and, especially at night, the camera promises to deliver unprecedented image clarity.
