Polestar 5 Prototype Achieves 10-Minute Ultra-Fast Charging Milestone

Polestar's latest EV prototype, in collaboration with StoreDot, charges from 10 to 80% in just ten minutes, setting a new standard in electric vehicle charging times.

Polestar unveils a prototype of its Polestar 5 model that can charge from 10% to 80% in just ten minutes using StoreDot's innovative silicon-dominant battery technology.
The breakthrough is part of Polestar's strategy to reduce EV charging anxiety by offering rapid recharge times comparable to refueling traditional petrol cars.
StoreDot's new battery technology, which will enter mass production this year, uses silicon anodes to achieve higher energy densities and faster charging speeds.
The Polestar 5 prototype, expected to hit the market next year, demonstrates charge rates exceeding 370 kW, significantly outpacing current fast-charging EVs.
Polestar's advancements could reshape consumer expectations and accelerate the shift towards electric vehicles by providing more convenient and efficient charging solutions.
