The Polestar 4 has officially been revealed in its new SUV body style ahead of its Australian arrival in the fourth quarter of 2026.
Compared to the existing ‘coupe’ model, this new Polestar 4 SUV most notably gains a longer roofline with a more upright tailgate. There’s also a proper rear window.
As a result of these changes there is slightly more second-row headroom and extra cargo capacity. With the rear seats upright there is up to 655L of boot space, expanding out to 1665L with them folded.

What is under the bonnet?
The Polestar 4 SUV is built on the same SEA architecture as its coupe counterpart, plus there is still a choice of two all-electric powertrains.
The Rear motor version is powered by a single, rear-mounted electric motor that produces 200kW and 343Nm. Enough to send it from 0-100km/h in 7.3 seconds.
The Dual motor version, on the other hand, features a dual-motor, all-wheel drive set-up with a total system output of 400kW and 686Nm. Enough for a 0-100km/h sprint in 3.9 seconds.
All SUV variants come with a 100kWh battery pack. The Rear motor is claimed to offer 630km of WLTP-claimed range, whereas the Dual motor is claimed to offer 600km of WLTP-claimed range. This is an increase of 10km over the coupe counterparts.
What standard equipment is on offer?
All versions of the Polestar 4 SUV offer vehicle-to-load (V2L) functionality, like its coupe counterpart.
Using the charging port with a certified charging adaptor, the V2L system can deliver up to 3.3kW of power. It can be used to power household appliances, camping equipment or any other powered electronic device.
Additionally there’s a new ‘Camping’ mode that allows the climate control to remain active when parked. It also allows you to use the screens, ambient lighting, V2L port, as well as the USB-C and 12V outlets.
Like the coupe version, there is a digital instrument cluster and a landscape-oriented touchscreen multimedia system. Both operate on Google Built-in with Google Gemini functionality.
