The Polestar 4 officially hit two key markets Wednesday. Polestar launched its new SUV Coupe in Europe and Australia with up to 379 miles (610 km) WLTP range.

A new electric breed of SUV Coupe

Polestar unveiled the Polestar 4 last April, calling it a “new breed of SUV coupe.” The Polestar 4 is the brand’s second all-electric SUV, following the Polestar 3.

It’s positioned between Polestar 2 and Polestar 3 in terms of size and pricing. The vehicle is designed for maximum efficiency with a low nose, retractable door handles, frameless windows, and rear aero blades.

Polestar began production in November, with the first customers receiving their vehicles in China by the end of the year.

In China, 880 Polestar 4s were handed over by the end of 2023. Now, the Polestar 4 is officially on sale in Europe and Australia.

The electric SUV coupe will start at EUR 63,200 ($68,500) in Europe and AUD 81,500 ($53,700) in Australia. Production is slated to begin in mid-2024, with the first deliveries expected by August.

CEO Thomas Ingenlath said introducing the Polestar 4 “into all our markets through 2024 is key to our success.” He said the SUV Coupe “offers great interior space and a stunning appearance.”

With the rear window removed, the glass roof stretches beyond the rear passengers. The interior includes a 15.4″ infotainment powered by Android Auto OS. It includes built-in Google, with Google Assistant, Google Maps, and Google Play. A 10.2″ driver display is fitted ahead of the steering wheel.
