Volvo's ultimate owner is the same state-aligned Chinese conglomerate. The question isn't "why ban Polestar", it is "why ban Polestar without banning Volvo". They are both headquartered in Sweden, they are both owned by the same conglomerate, and they are often even both manufactured in the same factories. So what makes them different enough to warrant banning only one of them? | ||

From other comments where telemetry goes to, and possibly the level of remote control in the cars. It appears to be a general ban on "connected vehicles" controlled from certain countries even if built in the US[1], so I would guess that Volvo does not meet the criteria for that. 1. https://www.topgear.com/car-news/usa/polestar-has-been-banne... | ||
