As trailed recently on the forum, the "new" business model is "renting" by another name of a "bundle" of services.
Polestar will take a new approach to market with subscription as the primary offer. The cars will be offered as an all-inclusive single monthly payment, aiming to take the hassle out of traditional car ownership.

The monthly fee will include everything from maintenance, insurance and roadside assistance to pick-up and delivery services that will redefine the owner experience. All orders and transactions will be completed online.

The Superbowl, possibly the most expensive time slot for media adverts.

Audi bought a piece of it, and offered this 1 minute video.

Not sure if advertising has completely lost it, but is this the best that Audi could offer. Its so bad it could have been made in by candidates on the Apprentice.

..er the other thing if you manage to get to the end of it is that it is an advert for "the fully electric e-tron models from Audi."

"the fully electric e-tron models from Audi."




Regards Neil

and another superbowl advert from Porsche and at the very end....its an advert for the electric Porsche Taycan

Wasn't there a Volkswagen fiasco last year?
Must admit to keeping a healthy distance from all that codswallop.

I'm putting this here, only because a presumably unintended crash (in Austria) might turn out to be some good publicity for the Honda-e cutie...

Have to say electric car adverts are getting more frequent. Here's Peugeot 2020 efforts including the August 2020 e-2008 SUV advert just released.


Ear plugs at the ready.

I dont think Peugeot are trying to sell the e-208, or the e-2008 to fellow baby boomers or even generation X.

Love the design and the video auto-played onto Rory Reid's comparison with the Tesla Model 3:
