Charging time

The following charging times are approximate and apply when charging is not affected by current being drawn from the climate system or any other function. The charging time can also vary depending on battery size. If charging seems to be taking more time than shown in the table, this should be investigated.

 Important

Polestar strongly advises against charging the vehicle with alternating current of 100-120 V in combination with an amperage under 10A.

 Note

To reduce the charging time for rapid charging in cold weather, the battery needs to be preconditioned, which is done by adding a rapid charging station as a destination in Google Maps.

 Note

  • It may take longer to charge the high voltage battery in cold or hot weather conditions. Some of the charging current is then used to heat/cool the high voltage battery.
  • It may take longer to charge the high-voltage battery due to charging station limitations.
  • Selecting preconditioning can affect the charging time.
  • Rapid charging with up to 200 kW9 output is possible under favorable conditions for the high-voltage battery and the charging station. Charging output is limited toward the end of rapid charging.
  1. 1 Applies to charging with 200-240 V-outlet.
  2. 2 Maximum charging current may vary from market to market.
  3. 3 The highest charging output the vehicle can achieve is 11 kW.
  4. 4 From 0-100 %
  5. 5 Maximum output that the charging station can supply.
  6. 6 Applies at 10-80% charging level provided that the battery's temperature is approx. 35 °C (95 °F).
  7. 7 Maximum output 135 kW.
  8. 8 Maximum output 155 kW.
  9. 9 Charging output may vary depending on battery variant and market.
