Car user profiles

For a more customised experience, you can set up user profiles for different drivers.

To access all of your car's features, you need to set up the owner profile. You can then add co-driver profiles for more users. Having individual user profiles allows each driver to save customised settings and adjustments which are automatically applied when their profile is selected.

Profile typeWho uses it?
OwnerThe permanent user profile for the owner of the car.
Co-driverUp to five additional user profiles for regular users of the car.
GuestA guest user profile that's available for temporary users of the car.

The owner has all the administrative privileges while the co-drivers have some of them. The guest can make some adjustments but that profile resets after every driving cycle.

You can find the profile settings in settings, where you can do the following:
  • Add and switch profiles
  • Restrict access to your profile
  • Connect the Polestar app to the car
  • View and change privacy settings
  • Change your profile name and picture
  • Remove your profile
  • Add an account to your profile
  • Connect a key to your profile and manage connected keys

 Note

The owner can also manage other profiles in their profile settings.
