Why Active Air Suspension Elevates Daily Driving in Scottsdale, AZ

Polestar Scottsdale - Why Active Air Suspension Elevates Daily Driving in Scottsdale, AZ

Electric SUVs have matured into quiet, comfortable cruisers, but the truly memorable ones add a layer of finesse that keeps you looking for the long way home. The Polestar 3’s dual chamber active air suspension is one of those rare upgrades that changes how a vehicle feels in every scenario, from urban errands to winding desert highways. By reading road, car, and driver inputs up to 500 times per second, the system continuously adapts ride height and damping. In practical terms, you enjoy controlled body motions over speed humps, less float on expansion joints, and reassuring stability when passing semis in gusty crosswinds.

For drivers who balance commuting with weekend escapes, the ability to choose standard, nimble, or firm settings matters. The Polestar 3 lowers itself at speed to reduce aerodynamic drag and wind noise, then raises for loading or rougher surfaces when needed. Pair that with true torque vectoring on the rear axle, and you get quick, clean turn-in that makes a midsize SUV feel refreshingly agile. It is the dynamic polish that elevates every mile, and it is exactly what owners mean when they say the car simply feels right.

  • Dual chamber design: Independently manages air volume to fine-tune both comfort compliance and body control.
  • Adaptive ride height: Lowers at speed to improve efficiency and stability, raises for loading or uneven paths.
  • Sensor-driven responses: Adjusts damping and height based on inputs sampled up to 500 times per second.
  • Driver-selectable modes: Standard, nimble, or firm let you set the tone for school runs, scenic drives, or spirited sprints.
  • Synergy with torque vectoring: Actively shifts torque across the rear axle for better grip and cornering precision.

Inside, the Polestar 3 keeps the calm with materials and tech that complement that composed ride. Choose the Plus pack to unlock the bespoke Bowers & Wilkins system with 1,610 watts, 25 speakers, Dolby Atmos, and Abbey Road Studios Mode. Active road noise cancellation works with the EV’s low NVH baseline to hush the cabin without masking important sounds like sirens. Google built-in, running on Android Automotive OS, means Google Maps routes intelligently for charging and traffic while Google Assistant responds naturally to voice commands. Wireless Apple CarPlay keeps iPhone users seamlessly connected, and over-the-air updates continually refine features and performance.

Comfort and air quality are not afterthoughts. CleanZone® and the Advanced Air Cleaner help filter particulates, viruses, and pollen, while the panoramic roof’s acoustic glass and UV filtering amplify the sense of quiet, airy space. Sport seats with powered lumbar support come heated up front, and available rear seat heating and headrest speakers extend first-class touches throughout the cabin. If you tow a small trailer or adventure gear, the up to 3,500-lb capability adds flexibility without compromising daily drivability.
