What Will the New Waylands Polestar Dealership in Newbury Offer to UK EV Buyers?

3 min read

Waylands is opening a new Polestar dealership in Newbury, showcasing the full electric range and pre‑owned models – find out what this means for UK EV buyers.

Waylands Expands Its Polestar Relationship

Waylands has confirmed plans to launch a brand‑new Polestar showroom in Newbury, marking the next phase of its growing partnership with the Swedish electric‑vehicle manufacturer. The announcement follows the success of existing Polestar sites in Bicester and Bristol and underlines Waylands’ commitment to expanding premium EV retail across the UK.

State‑of‑the‑Art Facility Built Around the Polestar Concept

The forthcoming Newbury venue will be designed to Polestar’s signature retail concept, providing a modern, progressive space that reflects the brand’s premium ethos. According to Waylands, the site will display the entire current Polestar electric model line‑up, ensuring that visitors can experience every vehicle the brand offers.

What the Newbury Showroom Will Provide

In addition to brand‑new stock, the dealership will feature a carefully curated selection of second‑hand Polestar cars. Buyers looking for a pre‑owned electric vehicle will have access to models that have been inspected and approved by the Waylands team.

Customer support will extend beyond sales, with dedicated servicing and maintenance facilities on‑site. Waylands emphasises that the after‑sales area is designed to deliver a seamless, hassle‑free experience for owners of both new and pre‑owned Polestar vehicles.

CEO John O’Hanlon’s Vision

John O’Hanlon, CEO of Waylands, explained the strategic importance of the Newbury location: “We have built a really strong relationship with Polestar, and this new space in Newbury is an exciting next step. It gives us the opportunity to present the brand in a way that truly does it justice; thoughtful, progressive and unmistakably premium.”

He added, “From the current range through to the new Polestar 5, alongside a carefully selected Pre‑Owned offering and dedicated after‑sales support, everything has been designed to create a seamless and engaging experience. We look forward to continuing to grow alongside Polestar and supporting the brand’s momentum in the UK.”

Impact on the UK Electric‑Vehicle Market

The addition of a dedicated Polestar centre in Newbury strengthens the availability of premium electric cars outside the major metropolitan hubs. By offering both new and certified pre‑owned models, Waylands is helping to broaden the market for EVs, making them more accessible to a wider range of customers.

Existing Waylands Polestar and Volvo Presence

Waylands already operates Polestar showrooms in Bicester and Bristol, and it represents Volvo at seven locations across the country. The Newbury site will therefore complement an established network of premium Scandinavian brands, reinforcing Waylands’ role as a key player in the UK’s electric‑vehicle retail landscape.
