Polestar's new electric car doesn't have a rear window

The Polestar 4 electric SUV does not have a rear window and uses a video rearview "mirror" with a digital display to show the driver what is behind the vehicle.

Polestar wants to show you the way forward.

The Volvo-owned automaker's latest electric vehicle has a unique feature.

That is to say, it is missing a feature.

The Polestar 4 midsize SUV features a coupe-like roof that does not have a rear window.

Instead, there is a full glass sunroof that extends over the heads of the rear passengers.

Polestar said the design creates a "unique interior ambience" for those seated in the back.

The driver can still see what is behind the vehicle by using a digital rearview "mirror" that gets a video feed from a roof-mounted camera.

It can also be switched to a reflective surface, so the rear passengers can be seen.

The Polestar 4 will be available with a 544 horsepower all-wheel-drive system, making it the brand's most powerful model to date.

A 272 horsepower rear-wheel-drive model with a 102 kWh battery pack will also be offered with an estimated driving range of 300 miles between charges.

The Polestar 4 will be built in China and prices expected to start around $60,000 when it goes sale in the U.S. late next year.

Before then, the brand will launch the larger, $83,900 Polestar 3 SUV, which will initially be imported from China, but will be built in South Carolina starting in 2024.
