Hey all,

It’s been a while since my last post about this project: unlocking a Polestar integration for Home Assistant.

Since then, I’ve been in contact with Polestar and members of their cloud features team.

I walked them through the project, what I discovered, and what I’ve built. The initial response was positive, but that does not mean I’ve already been given the green light to release it publicly.

What I can share is that they’re actively looking at how initiatives like this can be supported in the right way, because they recognize there is growing demand for this kind of technical integration. The people I spoke with also understand that many Polestar owners are highly tech-minded and value exactly these kinds of capabilities.

So to be clear: this isn’t a case of “you do this and get blocked immediately,” but they also need time to decide internally how to handle this properly and responsibly. I’ve been asked to wait a few weeks while that process runs.

That’s all for now. Not a huge update, but I wanted to let you know progress is still being made!
