Polestar is a Swedish electric performance brand focused on minimalist design, Google-based technology and a more driver-oriented take on premium EVs. I have driven several Polestar models, and my coverage includes the 2, 3 and 4 alongside future cars such as the Polestar 5.

Polestar 3 Performance Review
The Polestar 3 Performance is expensive, but it feels every bit the premium electric SUV it needs to be. It is beautifully built, exceptionally comfortable, seriously quick and, most impressively, genuinely enjoyable to drive despite its size and weight. The touchscreen-heavy controls and over-sensitive driver assistance systems can frustrate, but they do little to undermine what is otherwise a hugely accomplished luxury EV. After living with it for a couple of weeks, it is one of those rare cars I really did not want to give back.
Polestar 2 Long Range Dual Motor Review
The Polestar 2 remains the thinking person's electric car, offering a brilliant blend of style, tech, and genuine driver engagement.
Polestar 4 Coupé Review
There is a lot I really like about the Polestar 4. The quality is exceptional, the driving position is superb, the chassis actually encourages you to find an interesting road and the interior feels every bit as premium as the price suggests. After several days with the rear-wheel-drive version, including around 200 miles in a single trip, it is the sort of EV I could very easily live with. It is not perfect. Some of the driver-assistance technology became irritating, the touchscreen still controls too much and I never completely warmed to the digital rear-view mirror. But those frustrations are surrounded by so much good stuff that the Polestar 4 has become one of my favourite cars in this part of the market.
