Polestar has revealed the Formula 2030, a low, compact four-door concept car featuring Dual Blade headlights, a wraparound windshield, and a retractable LiDAR sensor for autonomous driving. Inside, it includes a 20-inch curved driver display, a 12.2-inch center screen, physical controls, adjustable inflatable seat bolsters, and Google Gemini voice assistance. Polestar says design elements from the concept will carry over to the next-generation Polestar 2 successor in 2027 and the Polestar 7 SUV in 2028.

Even though Polestar vehicles currently face US import restrictions, showcasing this concept lets the company signal its design direction and technology ambitions to global audiences ahead of upcoming production models. The emphasis on tactile controls and sensor integration could reflect an industry-wide pushback against all-touchscreen interiors, though that remains an inference rather than a stated strategy.
