Extending the range

Range-optimising tools like the range assistant app, pre-entry climate control, and the energy-saving heat pump give the driver multiple options for extending Polestar 3’s range.

Energy saving heat pump

Waste heat doesn’t have to be wasted heat. The heat pump warms up the cabin and preserves charge for more time on the road by making use of run-off thermal energy from the electric motors, battery, and ambient air.

Drivetrain

Two different drivetrains. Two distinct characters. The rear-wheel drive setup features the latest passive dampers for sporty handling and control. The all-wheel drive system continuously adapts to road conditions, deactivating the front motor to optimise performance and efficiency.

Range or Performance modes

Balancing power and efficiency, Polestar 3 with all-wheel drive includes two drive modes. "Range" provides a smoother pedal response for a more refined ride, while "Performance" enhances sensitivity for quicker access to power and torque.

Suspension

Polestar 3’s suspensions are defined by perfectly balanced comfort and performance dynamics. The active air suspension delivers a truly adaptive drive by adjusting ride height via sensor input, while the passive dampers keep the driving experience nimble and comfortable.

Active air suspension

Adapting to sensor input 500 times a second, the active air suspension enhances the handling and ride quality of all performance situations. Polestar 3 lowers its ride height at speed to reduce aerodynamic drag, and the system can be changed for feel through different settings.

Available with Dual motor. Included with Performance.

Passive dampers

Ultramodern passive dampers for Polestar 3 come as standard. Add-on valves such as the hydraulic rebound stops (HRS) and frequency selective damping (FSD) impart a fine balance of ride comfort and handling.

Included with Dual motor and Rear motor.

22-inch Performance wheels

The 22-inch Performance wheels are forged instead of cast using a manufacturing technique rooted in motorsport. Lighter and stronger than conventional alloy wheels and shod with custom-developed Pirelli P Zero tyres, they ensure excellent handling and road contact.

Brembo brakes

Standard on every Polestar 3, the high-performance Brembo brakes benefit from decades of competition experience and a long-time partnership with Polestar. The ventilated discs and four-piston aluminium front callipers offer increased rigidity and quick response at any temperature.

Swedish gold brakes included with Performance.
