About the Polestar 3
The Polestar 3 is the brand's first large SUV, built on the SPA2 platform shared with the Volvo EX90. It marks Polestar's move into the premium electric SUV segment, competing directly with the BMW iX, Mercedes EQE SUV, and Audi Q8 e-tron.
Two battery options are available: an 88 kWh pack for the entry model and a 102 kWh pack for the Long Range, with dual motors producing up to 489 bhp. An optional Performance pack adds further power and adjustable Öhlins dampers. DC charging at up to 250 kW enables a 10-80% charge in approximately 30 minutes.
The interior follows Polestar's Scandinavian design philosophy with sustainable materials, a large central touchscreen running Android Automotive, and a driver-focused instrument cluster. Standard safety equipment includes lidar on higher trims, paving the way for future autonomous driving capabilities. The driving experience balances comfort and composure, with the air suspension absorbing imperfections well while keeping body roll in check. It is a substantial car at over 2,500 kg, but it disguises its weight effectively on the move. For buyers wanting a premium electric SUV with driver appeal and distinctive design, the Polestar 3 makes a compelling case.
What the press thinks
An accomplished premium electric SUV that combines striking design with a refined driving experience. Reviewers praise the comfortable ride, strong range, and high-quality interior, though the hefty weight and premium pricing are recurring concerns.
