Polestar Precept new details revealed

Several days ago, we reported that Polestar was bringing its new prototype EV called the Precept to the Geneva Motor Show. Today, the company announced that the car would make use of a wide range of recycled materials.

The Polestar Precept introduces what its creators claim is a new biological compound called Bcomp. The interior of the car is partly made of Bcomp and features floor mats made out of fishing nets and seat upholstery woven from recycled plastic strands.

The concept vehicle also serves as a demonstration of the new Polestar infotainment system interface, as well as its general design philosophy. The company describes the coupe using such terms as ‘athletic minimalism’, ‘aerodynamic efficiency’ and ‘spatial freedom for passengers.’

The Precept houses a special arrangement called SmartZone in its faux grille area, which contains its autopilot tech (cameras and radars). A roof-mounted active rangefinder assists the array.
