The Polestar 4 is a battery electric compact luxury crossover SUV produced by Swedish automaker Polestar since 2023. The vehicle is manufactured by Geely Holding in a factory in Hangzhou Bay, China.[5] The 4 is the third vehicle to use the rear- and all-wheel drive based platform, Sustainable Experience Architecture. The vehicle is a coupe SUV that went into production in November 2023,[6] and from launch will have two powertrain options.[7]
Overview
The vehicle was unveiled in April 2023 at the 2023 Auto Shanghai,[8] as part of Geely's new SEA platform, where it underpins primarily battery electric vehicles, such as the Zeekr X and the Polestar 5. Positioned between the smaller Polestar 2 compact executive liftback and the larger Polestar 3 mid-size luxury crossover, it belongs to the British D-segment size segmentation. Having no rear window, it is replaced by the roof-mounted camera system. Polestar claims it is the fastest production car the brand has made, accelerating from 0–62 mph (0–100 km/h) in 3.8 seconds.
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.[9]
The vehicle is to be available in Europe, North America and the Asia-Pacific from 2024.
