Polestar Scottsdale - Can the 2025 Polestar 3 really tow your weekend gear around Glendale, AZ?
Planning a camping trip or mountain-bike session and wondering if an electric SUV fits the plan? The 2025 Polestar 3 blends refined driving dynamics with confident towing capability, making it a compelling partner for weekend adventures around Glendale, AZ. With dual-motor variants rated to tow up to 3500 pounds and the single-motor variant suitable for lighter setups, it balances muscle with meticulous control.
Polestar engineered the chassis for stability under load. Dual-motor models pair true torque vectoring on the rear axle with available active air suspension that adapts continuously to road and driver inputs. That combination helps keep the SUV composed when merging, ascending grades, or easing down a winding descent with a trailer. A loading mode at the rear can lower ride height to make hitching and gear management simpler, while Trailer Stability Assist is designed to help mitigate sway when conditions get gusty.
Inside, the cabin remains calm and focused. The panoramic roof brightens the space, and Google built-in makes route planning straightforward, including charging stops that account for real-time conditions. If you love audio as much as the open road, the available Bowers & Wilkins system with Dolby Atmos and Active road noise cancellation turns highway stretches into a private listening room. Storage is smart too — the rear compartment offers generous volume with 60/40 split backs, plus a useful front storage area for smaller items you want within easy reach.
Charging and energy planning are part of any towing conversation. For day trips, many owners simply charge at home overnight and head out fully ready. On longer journeys, public DC fast charging along key corridors provides quick top-ups during natural breaks. The heat pump and range assistant tools help optimize efficiency, while Google Maps within the center display adjusts your route dynamically to keep the day stress-free.
- Pick your powertrain based on load — dual motor for heavier trailers, single motor for lighter gear
- Use loading mode with available active air suspension to make hitching easier
- Pre-plan routes in Google Maps and add charging stops that align with meal breaks
- Balance cargo between the rear compartment and front storage for better weight distribution
- Enable driver assistance features that support long, steady highway stretches
Here is how this comes together when the weekend calls. You pack, lower the rear via loading mode, hitch your small trailer, and set a destination in Google Maps. The system considers your remaining charge and suggests convenient charging points if needed. On the road, true torque vectoring and Trailer Stability Assist help the Polestar 3 track faithfully, while the cabin remains quiet and organized so you can focus on the journey.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How much can the Polestar 3 tow?

A retractable, semi-electric towbar is available, and Trailer Stability Assist comes standard. On dual-motor models, available active air suspension and true torque vectoring add composed dynamics and secure traction when pulling a load.
Does towing affect range?
