Swedish electric vehicle manufacturer Polestar, owned by Chinese automotive giant Geely, will no longer be able to sell its new cars in the U.S. market, the company said on Thursday, as the Trump administration’s Department of Commerce refused to authorize the company to do so.
The decision was made as part of the administration’s so-called “Connected Vehicle Rule” that restricts cars with Chinese software or hardware from being sold in the U.S. Polestar had requested a special authorization to sell its vehicles in the U.S.
