The Polestar 3 will be built on Volvo's new platform that will be shared with the next-generation Volvo XC90. The Polestar 3 will have adaptive air suspension that can adjust its firmness 500 times per second. The suspension tune will be switchable between comfort and sports settings.
The first Polestar 3 to arrive will have a dual-motor powertrain with electric torque vectoring on the rear electric motor using a dual-clutch system. When equipped with the optional Performance Pack, the Polestar 3 will generate 510 horsepower (380 kilowatts) and 671 pound-feet (910 Newton-meters) of torque. The track-inspired package will also include chassis tuning from the Polestar Engineered team for an even sportier feeling behind the steering wheel
No other tech details are known, though, previously, Polestar announced it targets a range between two charges of 372 miles (600 kilometers) based on Europe's WLTP testing cycle. A more efficient, single-motor model is expected to join the lineup at a later date but there's no information about it available yet.
The Polestar 3 will be produced in the United States and China. The first examples are planned to roll off the assembly lines early next year and the order books will open shortly after the October 12 official debut. The newcomer is destined to become a competitor to such cars as the Audi e-tron, the Mercedes EQC and the BMW iX.
