"Google Earth with the operating system underneath just wasn't scalable," he says. Ramic admits Tesla has been an inspiration, but the system's entire interface was designed in house at Polestar, including all the graphics, menus and its massive 11-inch touchscreen, which replaces the car's center stack. It's similar to the design found in the Model 3, however, unlike the Tesla's screen, the Polestar's unit is mounted vertically, which Maximilian Missoni, Polestar's Head of Design, says is better to display maps and lists.
