Dive into the price list: What does the Polestar 4 have to offer?

Polestar has another new model: the Polestar 4. Where does this model fit in the range and what does it have to offer? Time to take a look at the price list!

Polestar gives its models a number instead of a name. Well, more brands are doing this. However, Polestar numbers the models in the order in which they are introduced. This causes some confusion. Take the new Polestar 4. This is not the brand’s new top model, but a model between 2 and 3. How should it be classified in comparison to models from other brands? Well, between cars like the BMW i4, NIO ET5, Volkswagen ID.7 and in terms of performance even the Porsche Taycan, to name just a few examples.

Performance and specifications Polestar 4

The Polestar 4 definitely delivers. Depending on the version (single motor or dual motor), you have 200 kW (272 hp) to 400 kW (544 hp) and 343 to 686 kW available. 100 km/h can be reached in 7.1 or just 3.8 seconds. The maximum speed is always 200 km/h. Both models have a 102 kWh battery (94 kWh usable), good for a range of 600 to 560 km.

Polestar 4 prices

The starting prices are clear for two versions. The Long Range Single Motor is available from 64,800 euros, the Long Range Dual Motor from 72,800 euros.

Standard equipment Polestar 4

What do you get for the money? Some highlights: 20-inch alloy wheels, full LED lighting, a panoramic roof with UV and noise-reducing glass, heated exterior mirrors, digital rearview mirror (very useful when there is no rear window…), electrically adjustable and heated front seats, 10 .2-inch digital instruments, 15.4-inch infotainment screen and a power tailgate. There is also an extensive package of assistance and safety systems, too many to list here. A “pet mode” is particularly worth mentioning if you want/need to leave your pet in the car for a while.

The features of the single motor and dual motor are identical, you just choose a more powerful drive train. We choose the single motor. Let’s be honest: 0 to 100 in 7.1 seconds is fast enough for the Netherlands and then we save 8,000 euros for the additional electric motor.

Outdoor decoration

The Polestar 4 comes standard in Magnesium Gray. Dark gray, black and a kind of gray-blue are available for 1,300 euros. White, like a color similar to gold, costs 1,600 euros extra. We choose the latter, if only because it is the only “real” color.

There are also other wheel options, although these are actually considered standalone options at Polestar. We can swap the stock 20-inch aero wheels for 21-inch sport wheels. Costs 1,800 euros extra. There are also 21-inch Pro wheels, but you have to order the Pro package for 2,000 euros. We’ll stick with the standard wheels.

Interior decoration

The interior is covered with black MicroTech synthetic leather as standard. If you would like to combine this with light gray interior elements or would like white upholstery, it costs no extra charge. There is a catch: for all optional upholstery you have to order the Plus package, which costs 5,500 euros. Black or white nappa leather is available for an additional 5,000 euros, but then you also get ventilated seats with a massage function and integrated speakers. We opt for black MicroTech, but in combination with the light interior parts.

Packages and options

What do you get with this Plus package? Well, this includes Harman Kardon Premium Sound, a head-up display, LED pixel headlights, extensive interior lighting, additional seat adjustments (also at the rear), heated steering wheel, rear seat heating, a rear touchscreen for your own climate control, intelligent interior air purification and 22 kW Charging power. So we checked this package after all.

The Pro Pack in question actually only includes the larger wheels, plus a gold-colored accent on the seat belts. We’re also leaving out the Pilot Pack (1,500 euros) with even more driving systems. Finally, there is the Performance package (4,500 euros) with 22-inch performance wheels, a sports suspension, Brembo brakes and even more gold-colored accents. The prerequisite is that you also choose the Dual Motor and the Plus Pack, so the overall price increases significantly.

Then there are some separate options. First of all, it’s worth noting: If you want a charging cable for your car – which we think is quite important – it costs an extra 200 euros. Would you like the panoramic roof to be darkened electrochromatically? Transfer an additional 1,900 euros. For 1,000 euros, the body is painted completely in the color of the vehicle; instead of the bumpers and sills, some of them are black. Finally, the rear side windows receive privacy glass for 500 euros. Of course we check the charging cable, but we believe the rest.

Finally, another list with individual options appears. Think of a set of winter tires (3,300 or 3,600 euros, depending on wheel size), a folding trailer hitch (1,400 euros), various types of home charging cables (320 to 420 euros) and accessories such as protective parts, mud flaps, roof racks, snow chains, floor mats, awnings and storage options (40 to 430 euros).

Assemble the Polestar 4 yourself

The Polestar 4 we put together ultimately costs 72,100 euros and the configurator also states that if we order it now we can drive it in August-September. Would you like to take a closer look at all the options, features and prices? Have fun in the clear configurator at www.polestar.com/nl.
