Polestar says Biden proposal would 'effectively prohibit' sale of its cars in US

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Polestar said on Monday that a proposed Biden administration rule to bar the use of Chinese vehicle hardware and software would "effectively prohibit" the automaker from selling vehicles in the United States, including cars made in the U.S. The Swedish automaker, a brand of Volvo Cars that is majority-owned by China's Geely, said in comments filed with the Commerce Department that a proposed rule prohibiting Chinese connected vehicles on American roads due to national security concerns would bar the sale of vehicles that Polestar is building in South Carolina as well as those produced in China.
