Sadly, the brand’s most affordable vehicle, the Polestar 2, is not produced in the United States. As a result, it misses out on any available EV tax credits.
Returning to the Polestar 3, the electric SUV will be offered in two states of tune. Thanks to its dual-motor setup, the entry-level model will wade into battle with a healthy 489 horsepower and 620 lb-ft of torque. A Performance package increases that to 517 horses and 671 lb-ft. Aside from that, the sportier version will also receive 22-inch wheels and enhanced dual-chamber air suspension that can adjust damping rates every two milliseconds.
A 111 kWh battery provides an EPA-estimated range of 300 miles, which falls in the same radius as the BMW iX xDrive50 (324 miles), Tesla Model X (335 miles), and Audi Q8 e-tron (300 miles). The Polestar 3 Long Range Dual Motor will be priced at $83,900, while the Performance Pack adds an extra $6,000.
