Key Features of the 2025 Polestar 3

Long range powertrains and 111 kWh battery

The foundation of the lineup is a 111 kWh lithium-ion battery on a 400V architecture, paired with powertrains tailored to your priorities. The Long range Single motor delivers balanced efficiency with rear-wheel drive and sophisticated passive dampers. Step into Long range Dual motor for responsive all-wheel drive, true torque vectoring on the rear axle, and the ability to tailor for performance or range modes. The Long range Dual motor with Performance pack elevates output to up to 380 kW/517 hp and 671 lb-ft for assertive, linear acceleration. All versions benefit from a low-mounted battery that reduces the center of gravity, supporting stability through quick transitions and high-speed cruising. Range-optimizing tools—like the energy-saving heat pump, the range assistant, and pre-entry climate control—help you make the most of every kilowatt-hour. For daily life around the Valley and longer weekend drives, the drivetrain and battery tuning feel thoughtfully integrated instead of simply powerful on paper.

Dual chamber active air suspension

When equipped with Long range Dual motor, the advanced dual chamber active air suspension reads inputs up to 500 times per second to refine ride and handling in real time. Multiple settings let you dial in standard, nimble, or firm responses, and the system can automatically lower ride height at speed to reduce aerodynamic drag. The result is a composed glide over imperfect surfaces without losing steering precision or feedback. On winding desert roads, the Polestar 3 settles quickly after bumps and maintains consistent contact with the pavement. Within neighborhoods and urban streets, it isolates harsh edges and expansion joints with a calm that befits a luxury electric SUV. Combined with double wishbone front suspension and an integral link rear, the chassis balances confident control and gentle compliance in a way that makes long commutes less tiring and weekend drives more rewarding.

True torque vectoring and Brembo brakes

Polestar’s performance expertise shows in the details. The Long range Dual motor models feature computer-controlled true torque vectoring on the rear axle, actively distributing power to the wheel with the most grip to quicken acceleration, steady the vehicle through corners, and support traction on slippery surfaces. Pair that with standard Brembo performance brakes—ventilated discs and four-piston aluminum front calipers—and the Polestar 3 inspires trust on a curving on-ramp or during abrupt stops. Polestar Engineered tuning in the Performance pack sharpens responses further and can be combined with 22-inch forged Performance wheels shod with Pirelli P Zero tires developed specifically for the Polestar 3. Whether you prioritize polished daily comfort or spirited engagement, this SUV’s control systems work together so every input feels clean and confident.

Google built-in and Android Automotive OS

With Google built-in, the digital experience feels familiar and seamless from day one. The 14.5-inch high-resolution center display runs Android Automotive OS with a Polestar-developed interface, integrating Google Maps with battery-minded route planning and live updates. Google Assistant enables natural voice control over navigation, climate, and media so you keep hands on the wheel and eyes forward. Over-the-air updates bring improvements to infotainment, apps, and car systems, while smartphone connectivity with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto (availability per OEM roadmap) expands flexibility. A 9-inch driver display prioritizes essential information, and the available head-up display (Plus pack) presents key data in your line of sight. This is infotainment designed to reduce friction—less tapping, more clarity—especially helpful when navigating unfamiliar neighborhoods near Glendale, AZ or coordinating a multi-stop day across town.

Bowers & Wilkins for Polestar with Dolby Atmos

For those who value audio fidelity, the available Bowers & Wilkins for Polestar system transforms the cabin into an acoustic studio. It brings 1,610 watts, 25 high-performance speakers, 3D Surround Sound, and Dolby Atmos spatial audio, positioning instruments and voices with pinpoint precision around the listener. Headrest speakers further enrich the stage for front passengers, while active road noise cancellation helps preserve dynamic range without masking critical exterior sounds like sirens. Abbey Road Studios Mode adds a distinctive dimension, with presets spanning vintage to raw and a Producer Mode that lets you explore and adjust audio-spatial elements. From podcasts to playlists and high-resolution tracks, this system pairs beautifully with the quiet, insulated space created by acoustic laminated glass and the panoramic roof.
