Polestar has launched the Polestar 4 SUV, a more practical sibling to its fastback coupé, starting at €57,900. Electrive reports the new SUV adds a conventional rear window, taller roof, and upright tailgate while keeping the same 4.84-meter length and overall footprint as the original.
The SUV delivers up to 391 miles of range and boasts 1,665 liters of cargo space with rear seats folded — nearly triple the coupé's practicality. Attitude notes the model targets everyday drivers who want performance without sacrificing usability, while Car and Driver describes it as essentially an electric wagon in disguise.
More Headroom, More Cargo, Same DNA
The Polestar 4 SUV stands just 22 millimeters taller than the coupé — 1.556 meters high — but that extra height unlocks meaningful cabin upgrades. Yahoo Autos confirms the boost adds around 25 millimeters of rear headroom, easing access for back-seat passengers. The raised roofline also enables a full-length roof rail and electrochromic panoramic glass roof option.
Cargo space jumps dramatically: 530 liters to the seat backs, 655 liters loaded to the roof, and 1,665 liters with rear seats down. Add the front frunk, and total luggage capacity reaches 1,680 liters. A 100 kg roof load capacity rounds out the practicality push, making this SUV genuinely useful for families and long trips.
Two Power Options for Different Buyers
Polestar offers a rear-motor MOTION version producing roughly 272 horsepower, perfect for efficient daily driving. Those wanting more punch can upgrade to the dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup, which delivers up to 544 horsepower. Yahoo Autos reports the WLTP range hits 391 miles for some variants, with higher-spec configurations reaching up to 630 kilometers on a single charge.
Both powertrains tap a 100 kWh battery pack. The dual-motor option brings proper performance credentials while the single-motor keeps running costs lean. Buyers get to pick their priority: efficiency or acceleration, with pricing anchored at €57,900 for the entry-level MOTION model.
Smart Tech and Camping Mode for Modern Drivers
The Polestar 4 SUV ships with a larger 15.4-inch touchscreen and integrates Google Gemini AI to handle voice commands and navigation. Over-the-air (OTA) updates extend new features to existing Polestar 4 Coupé owners, keeping the entire lineup current. Electrive notes these software enhancements cement Polestar's tech-forward positioning in the EV market.
A standout addition is camping mode, letting drivers power devices and climate control overnight without draining the main battery. Vehicle-to-Load capability provides up to 3.3 kilowatts of external power — enough to run a portable fridge or charge smaller gadgets. The optional electrochromic roof can tint individual sections via the center display, blending luxury with practicality.
Expanding Polestar's Model Ambitions
This launch fits into Polestar's broader three-year expansion plan. Electrive reports the brand aims to introduce four new models, including the Polestar 5 sedan and the Polestar 2 refresh, signaling aggressive growth in both performance and mainstream segments. The Polestar 4 SUV bridges that gap — sporty enough for enthusiasts, practical enough for families.
