Polestar is clearing its remaining US inventory with discounts of up to $25,000, packaging its forced departure from the market as an upbeat marketing push it calls the “Summer of Clarity Event.” The Sweden-based brand, majority-owned by China’s Geely, is running the incentives through the end of July, after which it can no longer sell new cars in the US under a federal ban.

The rear-motor Polestar 4 drops to about $32,800, and as low as $31,400 on the configurator, from a starting price near $57,800 — a reduction of more than 40% on a 272-horsepower, roughly 310-mile luxury crossover, leaving it near the price of a mid-trim Toyota Camry. The dual-motor Polestar 4, with 544 horsepower and about 280 miles of range, falls to between
