Polestar is an independent luxury high-performance electric vehicle brand jointly owned by Volvo Car Group and Geely Holding Group. As a design-driven high-performance electric vehicle brand, Polestar benefits from Volvo Cars' technological and engineering synergies, as well as the strong support of the group's economies of scale. Introduction 1: Polestar has launched two production models, the Polestar 1 and Polestar 2. The Polestar 1 is a high-performance electric hybrid GT coupe with a global limited annual production of 500 units. This limited-edition GT sports car is currently one of the plug-in hybrid vehicles with the longest pure electric range in the world under the Polestar brand. Introduction 2: If the Polestar 1 represents the brand's supreme flagship, then the Polestar 2 is the model that truly delivers on performance at a more accessible price point by comparison.

Polestar is actually a high-performance electric vehicle sub-brand under the Volvo Group, originating from Volvo's performance racing division before becoming independent to focus exclusively on all-electric vehicles. I've interacted with many Polestar owners who praise its perfect blend of Scandinavian design and formidable performance. Take the popular Polestar 2 model, for example—it delivers explosive power output, sports car-like acceleration from 0-100 km/h, while maintaining everyday comfort. The interior uses eco-friendly materials without unpleasant odors, making it health-conscious and aligning perfectly with modern trends toward green living. Positioned in the luxury segment price-wise, Polestar offers a more understated and practical alternative compared to Tesla, featuring top-notch noise insulation—ideal for those who crave thrilling drives without sacrificing elegance. Globally, with production facilities in China and steadily growing sales, Polestar embodies the vitality of the electrification wave. I believe if budget allows, Polestar is a trustworthy choice—it inherits Volvo's safety DNA while minimizing common EV pain points.

Polestar is an electric performance brand created by the Volvo Group. I've seen its Polestar 2 in person, and it feels like a perfect blend of practicality and performance. Electric vehicles are quiet and smooth to drive, with quick acceleration response, making them worry-free for daily commutes and reliable for long trips. The battery has a nominal range of around 400 kilometers, and the actual range is quite close to that. Charging is convenient, with 80% charge achievable in half an hour. The interior is simple yet stylish, made with eco-friendly materials, featuring comfortable seats and ample space for family use. Positioned as a mid-to-high-end brand, its price is slightly higher than regular electric vehicles, but its durability is strong, backed by Volvo's safety technology, which gives peace of mind. I think it suits those who pursue a quality lifestyle—it's not purely race-oriented but balances comfort and energy efficiency well. Under the trend of environmental awareness, Polestar's design and performance are well-balanced, attracting many buyers who value reliability.

Can I Pass the Annual Inspection Without ETC?

It is possible to undergo an annual inspection without ETC, as ETC is not mandatory. ETC is merely a method for fast toll collection at highway entrances, designed to alleviate the pressure of manual toll collection. According to the State Council's regulations, vehicles without ETC or not using ETC in 2020 cannot enjoy toll discounts. In the future, only one manual lane will be retained at highway toll stations, requiring payment through manual channels. Therefore, it has no direct relation to the vehicle annual inspection. Vehicle Annual Inspection Items: Appearance Inspection: Take the appearance inspection form to the appearance inspection station. First, check relevant documents to verify if the third-party insurance (compulsory insurance) is still valid. Only after document verification will the appearance inspection begin. This inspection mainly checks for damaged lights, whether the vehicle's exterior matches the original condition, any modifications to the suspension, as well as the sunroof, tires, etc. Emission Testing: Queue up and wait for the test. Before the test, staff will conduct a preliminary check, mainly verifying if the engine number matches the one on the vehicle license, briefly inspecting the appearance and condition of the vehicle, and then filling out the emission test form. During the test, an inspector will drive the vehicle onto the testing line. New vehicles usually pass easily, and upon receiving a qualified emission test form, you can proceed to the window to pay and collect the emission compliance label. If it fails, you need to go to an auto repair shop for adjustments and retest, of course, paying the testing fee again. Online Testing: If the appearance inspection passes, queue up for the online test. The testing line is responsible for checking brakes, headlights (high beam), chassis, etc., taking about 5-10 minutes. After the vehicle is driven off the line, you will receive a computer-printed form with items like brakes, lights, and horn. Qualified items are marked "0," and unqualified ones are marked "X." Usually, it's the lights and brakes that fail. No worries, the inspection site has facilities to adjust lights and brakes. After adjusting the brakes, you need to retest, but for lights, just a stamp after adjustment is sufficient. Traffic Violation Check: At the query window, collect and fill out the "Motor Vehicle Regular Inspection Registration Form," which can be obtained with the vehicle license. After filling out the form, hand it to the staff to check for any traffic violation records. If there are no issues, the form will be stamped with "Verified, Inspection Allowed." If there are violations, take the violation notice and handle them as soon as possible. ETC Deduction Principle: There will be one or more ETC lanes on the highway. Through dedicated short-range microwave communication between the vehicle's electronic tag installed on the windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station, and using computer networking technology for backend settlement with the bank, the vehicle can pass the toll station without stopping to pay the toll. All this is based on the principle of passing first and deducting fees later. Benefits of Installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and eco-friendly: Low-carbon, as vehicles pass the toll station without stopping, reducing noise and emissions, thus minimizing pollution; Reduced wear: Saves costs by decreasing the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, lowering wear and fuel consumption, and users can also enjoy a 5% discount on tolls; Increased efficiency: Theoretically, ETC lanes can improve vehicle passing efficiency by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC more updated, faster, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More Policy Support: The State Council clearly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, the interoperability of transportation cards in key city clusters will be basically achieved, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will significantly increase." It also explicitly set the goal in the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development indicators that "by 2020, the ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles will reach 50%." More Future Possibilities: Besides continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage and the ETC usage rate for passenger vehicles, efforts will be made to promote ETC usage for trucks in the future. Exploration will be conducted for deep integration of the ETC system with smart transportation development directions like vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination, providing comprehensive travel services for car owners. This means more application scenarios will support ETC applications.
