This is dealers preordering the cars mostly with no customer deposits. Probably depends on the local market and the dealer's bias. My local dealer has ordered three V60's with one deposit.
I suspect the customer $$$ is going to the new XC90. ;-)
I have a few questions for the Polestar Consultants. I'm working with my local dealer, but he doesn't have a lot of answers for me yet.
- Are the 2016 Polestars eligible for the Overseas Delivery Program?
- If OSD requires that financing is in place 30 days from delivery, how are trade-ins handled? (I don't want to be without a car for up to 3 months)
- Will the Polestars be eligible for OSD and/or Military discounts?
Unfortunately, the Polestar cars are not "orderable vehicles" and therefore not available for Overseas or Military ordering. This MY16 VCNA has decided to allocate the cars to the dealers in the US as opposed to other countries that are following last year's online purchase tool.
Trade-in vehicles on OSD are always a bit difficult. Our dealership's policy is to take ownership at the point of contracting (30 days prior to Euro delivery), and then loan the vehicle back to the client until their new Volvo returns from the long journey to the US after they drop it at their selected Euro drop-off location.
I'm not a Polestar Consultant but did ask this question of my dealer's consultant.
There was no OSD on the 2015.5 Polestars. I heard the same with the 2016 Polestars.
Discounts? Be happy to get a $1000 Volvo owner discount on a brand new one and that's about it. And these Polestars are excluded by VCNA from any Safe & Secure offering.

David Dupart and Anthony Meadows are the direct contacts for Polestar. If they aren't there, WAIT FOR THEM!
My former tech is now up at the Bellevue, WA store and said when he came in today there was a Ice White V60 P* in the showroom and a Bright Silver one outside. Cannot confirm if either are sold or not. Cars.com lists a Black and a Sliver one as being available there.
