Polestars are typically sold differently than sister brand Volvo. Although my local Volvo dealer services them and resells used models, Polestars are sold at a mall storefront. Does anyone know what the Polestar sales model is? Can you negotiate price?

"Massively large company."
Geely is a massively large auto company in China but not worldwide. BYD destroys Geely, no competition. BYD does over 3x the revenue Geely does and will grow far bigger than Geely while having better vehicles for the masses.
They only did $23 billion in revenue last year. That pales in comparison to the largest automakers. Toyota, for example, did $270 billion in revenue last year.
"They're doing just fine." Again, you have no numbers to back it up, I do.
Polestar only has $700 million in cash and is constantly raising new money through debt using heavy interest to sustain their business. That's only expected to last them a year or two at best.
Their revenue is as high as their COGS. That means just labor and materials to build the car is how much they're selling the vehicle for. No gross profit. Add in selling and operating costs and they're burning $200 million every quarter minimum.
They're unlikely to be profitable any time soon which is why Volvo reduced their holdings so that Geely can pay for it instead.
Only a matter of time before Geely realizes that Polestar is not competitive with BYD and Tesla and can't reasonably sustain the business.
Their vehicles are also priced at a premium at a time where EV sales are declining currently.
I'll give them 5 years before their company has going concern issues. Right now they're in a stage, like many other EV makers, where they have they are too deep into it to quit. Rivian and LUCID are two other companies. Can't and won't be profitable any time soon. Fisker is dead on arrival. Who else do we need to talk about here?
Now, in 5 years they may have some concerns? Seems like a HUGE problem for people doing a 27 month lease, as this deal is for.
But sure, you must be some "EV investing" guru.
People, Polestar isn't going anywhere. It's a nice car. If it works for you, don't listen to people like this guy.
If I had a good use case, I'd be 100% Polestar for an EV. Solid cars at a good price.

Also, the reason I ask about whether Polestar negotiates is because dealers can bend rules all the time. I've had dealers "find" the equivalent of the Costco rebate to close a deal.
I am also curious because Volvo has A Plan pricing for suppliers that I qualify for. But I doubt that transfers to Polestar, which Volvo is parting ways with.

They saw the EV craze created by Tesla and all wanted to get in on the funding, easy money, highly volatile stock prices, etc.,
Canoo's not going to survive. no money, minimal sales, and just not enough funding to ramp up production.
Rivian was one valued at $120 billion. it's only worth $9 billion now. But because Rivian went public at the right time, which many of these 'ev companies' did, they were able to get lucky with the crazy share prices and sold the shares to fund the business. Had they never gotten that funding from selling their shares at ridiculous prices to investors, they would probably have not survived as long as they are right now
Right now, money is hard to come by for funding because of the high rates so you're seeing more pressure on these EV companies to be profitable. The bad part is EV's are in a price war in China right now so there is downward pressure on the prices resulting in even worse margins for these EV companies.
unless you're an established ICE legacy company (Ford, GM, Toyota, etc.,) who can afford to lose billions selling EV's, the other startups are just going to have to continue raising debt/equity in a very competitive EV space.
Canoo's going bankrupt soon. They're trying to issue more shares for $ but good luck convincing anyone to want to fund it.
Lucid is at least backed by the Saudi's who have money to blow. But I can't fathom them enjoying losing billions every year when they start ramping up.
Rivian, partially owned by Amazon, still can't get costs under control and weakening demand.
The rest of the EV startups like Nikola and Canoo are just moneygrab companies where the owners wanted to get in on the EV hype and sell shares for easy money. They never had any intentions of succeeding.
Now, in 5 years they may have some concerns? Seems like a HUGE problem for people doing a 27 month lease, as this deal is for.
