Polestar will integrate Google Gemini, the next-generation AI voice assistant, into all models from Polestar 2 and onwards through a future Google update. As a preview of this upcoming innovation, Polestar and Google will host a guided demonstration of Gemini inside the Polestar 5 at Slush, one of Europe’s leading tech events.
Sid Odedra, Head of UI/UX at Polestar, says: “Our collaboration with Google is a great example of how we continue to evolve the digital experience in our cars. Gemini brings the next generation of AI voice interaction into the car, and we’re excited to give a first look at how it will enhance the driving experience.”
Gemini is an upgrade from Google Assistant with generative AI integrated, enabling users to have a more natural conversation with their Polestar. In addition to simple commands, users can expand their interaction with Gemini Live. With a simple prompt: “Hey Google, let’s talk”, users can activate the new feature, which enables them to brainstorm aloud, ask follow-up questions, and access new learning opportunities on the go. Gemini will replace the current Google Assistant in all Polestar cars.
Haris Ramic, Director of Product Management at Google, says: “We have collaborated with Polestar for years on bringing innovative technology to connected cars. We’re excited to bring Gemini to Polestar 5 and showcase it at the Slush conference.”
Polestar and Google will exhibit side by side at Slush, which takes place in Helsinki, Finland on 19-20 November 2025. Visitors can experience Gemini firsthand in the Polestar 5 at the Polestar stand.
Polestar users can experience Gemini from 2026 onwards.
