Polestar 4

The Polestar 4 is a battery electric compact luxury crossover SUV marketed by Polestar, an affiliate of Geely Holding and Volvo Cars, since 2023. The vehicle is manufactured by Geely Holding in a factory in Hangzhou Bay, China.[8] The 4 is the third vehicle to use the rear- and all-wheel drive based platform, Sustainable Experience Architecture. The vehicle is marketed as a coupe SUV that went into production in November 2023,[9] and has two powertrain options.[10]

Overview

The vehicle was unveiled in April 2023 at the 2023 Auto Shanghai,[11] as part of Geely's new SEA platform, where it underpins primarily battery electric vehicles, such as the Zeekr 001 and the Volvo EX30. Positioned between the smaller Polestar 2 compact executive liftback and the larger Polestar 3 mid-size luxury crossover, it belongs to the European D-segment size segmentation. Having no rear window, it instead showcases a roof-mounted camera system. Polestar claims it is the fastest production car the brand has made, accelerating from 0-62 mph in 3.8 seconds.[11]

The 4 is a two-row coupe crossover, that has a choice of the rear-wheel drive model where the motor is placed at the rear axle, or the performance all-wheel drive model where the motors are placed at both the front and rear axles.[12]

The vehicle became available in Europe, Canada, and the Asia-Pacific from 2024.

An estate-styled variant was announced in February 2026, for a planned launch later that year. It will be produced at the Renault Korea plant in Busan, South Korea, alongside the coupe SUV model, which has since been referred to as the Polestar 4 Coupe.[13][14][15]

Equipment

Standard equipment includes the 15.4-inch landscape touchscreen which consists of the Android Automotive, which is used on the Polestar 2. A 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster, and a 14.7-inch head-up display come standard. A full-length glass roof, and a digital rear-vision mirror are available, and interior, which according to Polestar, is made from 100 per cent recycled polyester. The 4 features 20- to 22-inch wheels, depending on the trim chosen.[16]

Powertrain

The 4 consists of two models, the Single Motor RWD, and the Dual Motor AWD. The Single Motor generates 272 hp and 343 Nm, with a top speed of 180 kph and a 0-62 mph of 7.4 seconds. The Dual Motor generates a combined output of 544 hp and 686 Nm using both of its motor, with a top speed of 200 kph and a 0-62 mph of 3.8 seconds. Both models use a 400V, 102 kWh lithium nickel manganese cobalt battery.
