Polestar is something like a German Tesla. It should be a direct electric Volvo with better dynamics and its own style. We don’t see these cars very often in our country, but the Polestar 3 is the most serious model of this car company. It is an SUV comparable to the BMW iX or Mercedes EQS, at least in terms of dimensions and interior space. The Polestar 3 is 4.9 meters long, has five seats and a luggage compartment with a volume of 484 liters, which can be increased to 1411 liters by folding down the seats. The version with a ball then pulls me and 2200 kg tk tow.
For now, the model 3 was presented in a version with a pair of electric motors with a total power of 489 hp and a torque of 840 Nm, with the Performance package for a fee, the parameters can be 517 hp and 910 Nm. In both cases, the maximum speed is limited to 210 km/h, from zero to 100 km/h in 5.0 and 4.7 seconds, respectively. And that is not so true for a car with a weight of 2.6 tons.
The interesting thing is to use a really big battery with a capacity of 111 kWh, of which 107 kWh are usable. Thanks to this, the Polestar 3 should cover a good distance of 400 km in normal operation, and even 500 km if you try a little. The battery can withstand fast charging with a power of 250 kW, which charges it from 10 to 80% in half an hour. Most of the orders will use the house charged with a power of 11 kW, which should be enough to charge the car overnight.
In places where classic cars with an internal combustion engine have coolers, there is a cover under which the sensors and cameras of the assistance systems are located. These are a very rich, comfortable and safe basic equipment, which can correspond to the premium status of the characters. The standard supplied pneumatic suspension with adaptive dampers promises that the chassis has not been damaged. Let’s see how the car will behave on 21 wheels, there are even twenty-two tires in the tires.
The interior is surprisingly simple and minimalistic, which will definitely suit a lot of customers. It had a display in front of the steering wheel similar to the one in current electric Volkswagens, and the tablet placed on the lid is again inspired by Tesla, but other car companies are also following this path. If the Polestar 3 can be ordered (on the British market, the price starts at 2.2 million crowns), the first pieces will arrive in European markets no later than twice a year.
