Polestar 4

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. 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, and from launch will have two powertrain options.

Overview
The vehicle was unveiled in April 2023 at the 2023 Auto Shanghai, 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 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.

The vehicle is to be available in Europe, North America and the Asia-Pacific from 2024.

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 will feature 20- to 22-inch wheels, depending on the trim chosen.

The 4 consists of 2 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.
