2026 Polestar 4

The Polestar 4 electric vehicle is a coupe-like SUV. It is the sportier version of the Polestar 3. The Polestar 4 is available in two powertrain configurations, each labeled long range and featuring a 102-kWh battery. The rear-wheel-drive configuration has a single motor producing 272 horsepower and EPA-estimated 300-mile range. All-wheel-drive versions boast 544 horsepower and a 270-mile range. The cabin is Scandinavian sparse, with a large, 15.4-inch center screen hosting a Google-based infotainment system. It is wireless Apple CarPlay compatible. This is the first production vehicle without a rear window. Instead, it uses a high-mounted camera to provide a wide-view video feed to the rearview mirror display. A hands-free driving system is available at launch, with LIDAR-supported 'eyes-free' ability planned for the future. The on-sale date for the Polestar 4 has been extended and the price has increased. Originally expected as a 2025 model, it is now on track to be a 2026 released in fall 2025.

Brand context

About Polestar

Polestar is an all-electric brand that offers the Polestar 2 sedan, Polestar 3 SUV, and Polestar 4 coupe SUV EVs. Its vehicles have a lot in common with Volvos, both of which are owned by the Geely conglomerate. Polestar started out as a company that tuned Volvos to be sportier and was eventually acquired by Volvo itself—kind of like BMW M and Mercedes-Benz AMG. In 2017, Polestar became an independent company and started producing its own vehicles. The Polestar 2’s choppy ride and cramped interior did not impress us when we tested it, but newer models seem to be aimed at a broader audience. Originally, Polestar vehicles were sold online and through showrooms, but the automaker is now opening traditional dealerships.
