The light in the darkness


2020 was the year of Polestar
It started with a press event in Finland and the test drive of the 2020 XC60 Polestar Engineered. My first time with the golden seatbelts on.

It was quickly followed by the trip to Gothenburg, which sadly got canceled. This trip was supposed to show how the brand runs behind the scenes. And a test drive was the cherry on top. Well, the global pandemic said no to that.

In the summer Volvo Car Finland has loaned me an S60 T8 Polestar Engineered. After months of being stuck inside and having one of the sportiest Volvos at my disposal, I set off to do zoomies in South Finland.

So when the winter settled in Helsinki and an offer for the 2021 XC60 Polestar Engineered came in, I agreed to it instantly. So having a Crystal White car, I knew I had to use that to my advantage. And that is when I set off into the night to explore the lights of Helsinki.
