Following a tease earlier this year, Polestar has revealed new details about the upcoming 4 crossover.
In an interview with Car Magazine, Polestar CEO Thomas Ingenlath said the model will arrive in 2023 and compete with the Porsche Macan.
Ingenlath went on to say the crossover will be “slightly smaller” than the 3 and adopt a “more ground-hugging” design with a “coupe-type roofline.” The executive also revealed the crossover will be significantly cheaper than the €75,000 ($85,031 / £63,054) Polestar 3 as pricing will eventually start around €55,000 ($62,356 / £46,235).

The 4 is expected to become Polestar’s best-selling vehicle and it’s slated to ride on the PMA platform, which is said to be a version of Geely’s Sustainable Experience Architecture (SEA). As a result, the Polestar 4 will be made at Geely’s Hangzhou Bay factory in China.
While a number of questions remain, the model will be followed by the 5 in 2024. The company has billed the vehicle as an “electric performance four-door Grand Touring car” that draws inspiration from the Precept concept.
Of course, in the near term, we’ll see the introduction of the 3 next year. The American-made “premium electric performance SUV” was teased earlier this month and promises to “define the look of SUVs in the electric age.”
Polestar has been tight-lipped about specifics, but the 3 will be a two-row crossover that is slated to offer single and dual motor powertrains. The model also promises to be high-tech as it will “offer autonomous highway piloting powered by the best-in-class LiDAR sensor from Luminar and centralized NVIDIA computing power.”
