Polestar rings Nasdaq bell to celebrate public listing

Polestar chief executive Thomas Ingenlath was joined by Polestar and Gores Guggenheim members in New York City to mark the ringing of the Nasdaq stock exchange bell to celebrate its public listing under the “PSNY” ticker.

The public listing will help Polestar build its ambitious plans for growth in some of the most attractive global EV segments, while driving forward its industry-leading sustainability goals, including a completely climate-neutral car by 2030.

“This is such a proud day and ringing the bell at Nasdaq is a symbolic celebration,” says Ingenlath, adding the listing gives Polestar the platform to accelerate and push harder for a transition towards more sustainable mobility.

The bell ringing was amplified on Nasdaq’s digital billboard screens in Times Square which flashed images of some of Polestar’s more than 2000 global employees as well as the company’s vision statement.

PSNY-branded Polestar 2 cars were also displayed on the famous city square.

Polestar offices and retail locations across its 25 active markets, including Auckland’s Giltrap Group, were connected and watched the event live, celebrating locally.

The brand will launch three new premium electric cars, including two SUVs, by 2024. The first, Polestar 3, a full-size electric SUV, is expected to launch in October 2022.
