Polestar said its retail sales grew in the fourth quarter after seeing its order intake surge, creating a strong momentum for 2025.
The Swedish electric-car maker on Thursday said that it sold 12,256 cars in the fourth quarter, up 5.3% from the year-ago period, as a result of its growing model line-up.
Its quarterly order intake rose 37%, with the SUV models Polestar 3 and Polestar 4 representing about 56% of the total order intake in the period.
"The changes being made to our commercial operations are clearly having a positive impact," Chief Executive Michael Lohscheller said.
Polestar is expected to publish its third-quarter results on Jan. 16.
