Swedish electric-vehicle maker Polestar said on Wednesday Michael Lohscheller will become its top executive, replacing CEO Thomas Ingenlath from October 1.

Lohscheller, who has previously served as CEO of Opel, VinFast and Nikola, is an automotive industry expert, particularly in navigating competitive markets and scaling businesses, Polestar said.
