All- or rear-wheel drive
The Polestar 3's all-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive system is tuned for optimal driver engagement. The advanced electronic all-wheel drive system constantly adapts to road conditions and can disconnect the rear motor to extend the car's range.
True torque vectoring
The Polestar 3 Long range Dual motor features a computer-controlled torque vectoring system that 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.
Suspension
Active air suspension
Instead of conventional dampers, the Polestar 3 Long range Dual motor has a dual chamber active air suspension. It enhances the handling and ride quality by adapting to sensor input 500 times a second and providing different settings. The system also lowers the ride height at speed to reduce aerodynamic drag
Suspension
Passive dampers
The Polestar 3 Long range Single motor is fitted with ultramodern, BWI sophisticated passive dampers. Add-on valves such as the hydraulic rebound stops (HRS) and frequency selective damping (FSD) impart a fine balance of ride comfort and handling that inspires confidence with every drive.
Performance or range modes
The dual motor version of the 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 mile(s).Staggered wheel setup
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 motorsports. 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.
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.
- Certified performance figures based on Polestar 3 Long range Single motor, 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.
- 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 gallons, a conversion factor is used to translate the fuel economy into miles per gallon of gasoline equivalent (MPGe). Polestar 3 Long range Single motor EPA-estimated combined 86 city/95 highway/105 combined MPGe figures. Polestar 3 Long range Dual motor EPA-estimated combined 92 city/84 highway/88 combined MPGe figures. Polestar 3 Long range Dual motor with Performance pack EPA-estimated combined 81 city/73 highway/77 combined MPGe figures. Use for comparison purposes only. Your MPGe 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.
