The car has characteristic, angular proportions, distinguished by the letter "T" motif in both the headlights and rear lamps. There is a spare wheel hidden under the cover on the trunk lid, while on the edge of the windshield there is LiDAR, which plays the main function in an advanced semi-autonomous driving system.<ref>{{cite web|title=Stone 01 EREV SUV launched in China for 47,960 USD.

=== Facelift (Adamas; 2025) === The facelifted version of the 01 is named the '''Adamas'''. It maintains the "square box" design language of the 01. The front grille surround now matches the body colour, and the honeycomb trim beneath the headlights has been upgraded to a sleek, enclosed design. Depending on the configuration, the Adamas is also slightly longer than the 01 in terms of length and is also shorter than the 01 in terms of height. The Adamas was introduced initially in the Middle East and launched in China in December 2025.<ref name="5:">{{cite web |last=Miao |first=Liu |date=November 12, 2025 |title=Polestones Adamas EREV with a pure electric range of 215 km unveiled in China, set for December launch |url=https://carnewschina.com/2025/11/12/polestones-adamas-erev-with-a-pure-electric-range-of-215-km-unveiled-in-china-set-for-december-launch |website=CarNewsChina}}</ref>

== Specifications == The 01 is a car with a combustion-electric drive, in which the first unit serves as a generator and extends the car's range in a combined cycle. The batteries are powered by a 1.5-liter gasoline engine with a power of 154 HP, which is supplied by the domestic company Xinchen China Power, which also cooperates with, among others, with BMW and competitive Li Auto.<ref>{{cite web|title=Polestones 01 rolled off the production line.

The 56 kWh battery supplied by CATL enables 235 kilometers of range in pure electric mode and 1,338 kilometers of combined range in combined gas-electric mode.

The Adamas, the 01's facelifted version, adds a rear-wheel-drive configuration. It uses the same front motor as the AWD version, however it is placed at the back instead of the front. It develops 201 horsepower instead of the 470 horsepower of the AWD version. A smaller, 44.5 kWh battery is also introduced with the Adamas, which gets a range of 215 kilometers instead of the 235 kilometers with the 56 kWh battery.<ref name="5:"/>
