The Polestar 5 electric sedan makes its world debut

Today, Polestar debuted its newest model. Just as three is followed by four, next in the series comes five—in this case the Polestar 5. And the new EV is a little departure from the products we've seen so far from this Swedish/Chinese startup. It's a handsome if angular sedan that, like the Polestar 4 SUV, eschews a rear window in favor of more headroom for passengers and a rear-view camera. "Polestar 5 is bringing the future to our present. Our vision for Polestar's design, technology, and sus

Google wants Gemini to keep the conversation going, and here’s how it’s going to do it
