Polestar 2

Performance

Polestar 3 is the SUV designed for the thrill of driving. Perfectly tuned suspension, balanced power delivery, true torque vectoring, and low battery placement all add up to a responsive car with unparalleled road stability.

Powertrain

Pairing two high-performance, liquid-cooled electric motors with computer-assisted power distribution, the Polestar 3 powertrain provides optimal traction and control in all circumstances.

All-wheel drive

The advanced electronic all-wheel drive system ensures effective power delivery, regardless of road surface or weather conditions. It can also disconnect the rear motor to extend the real-world range when full power is not required.

True torque vectoring

Polestar 3's computer-controlled torque vectoring system constantly monitors for wheelspin and actively redistributes power to the wheel with more grip. This results in faster acceleration, higher cornering speeds and better traction on slippery surfaces.

Active air suspension

Replacing conventional dampers, the dual-chamber active air suspension enhances handling and comfort by adapting to the car's movements 500 times a second. The system also provides different settings, such as off-road and loading modes, and automatically lowers the ride height at high speed to optimize aerodynamics.

Performance or range modes

Polestar 3 allows the driver to optimize the powertrain for either maximum power or efficiency, by selecting performance mode or range mode. The latter enables more frequent disengagement of the rear motor to go the extra kilometre(s).

Staggered wheel set-up

Increased rear axle stability. Decreased body roll. Polestar 3 features a staggered wheel setup with wider rims and 295 mm tires at the rear, further improving the car's handling characteristics.

22” Performance wheels

The 22-inch Performance wheels are forged instead of cast, using a manufacturing technique rooted in motorsport. Lighter and stronger than conventional alloy wheels and shod with custom-developed Pirelli P Zero tires, they ensure excellent handling and road contact.

Available as an upgrade.

The Brembo logo is visible on the orange part of the wheel brake.

Brembo brakes

Standard on every Polestar 3, the high-performance Brembo brakes benefit from decades of competition experience and a long-time collaboration with Polestar. The ventilated discs and four-piston aluminum front calipers offer increased rigidity and quick response at any temperature.

  1. Certified performance figures based on Polestar 3 Long range Dual motor and Polestar 3 Long range Dual motor with Performance pack. Results may vary based on environment, road conditions, driving style, and vehicle load.
  2. Certified EPA range data. Results may vary based on environment, road conditions, driving style, and vehicle load. This is an electric vehicle. Since electricity is not measured in litres, a conversion factor is used to convert the fuel economy into kilometres per litre of gasoline equivalent (KPLe). Polestar 3 Long range Dual motor EPA-estimated combined 2.6 city/ 2.8 highway/2.7 combined KPLe figures. Polestar 3 Long range Dual motor with Performance pack EPA-estimated combined 2.9 city/ 3.2 highway/3.1 combined KPLe figures. Use for comparison purposes only. Your KPLe will vary for many reasons, including, but not limited to, driving conditions, how and where you drive, how you maintain your vehicle, battery package/condition, tires, and other factors.
