Read the full review

The 2026 Polestar 3 is a battery-electric SUV with AWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the Gen 1 generation. The Performance Pack is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.

Performance

The featured Performance Pack version develops 517 hp and 910 Nm (671 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 4.6 seconds, which is decisively quick for everyday road use. Top speed is listed at 210 km/h (130 mph). Its power output is about 45% above the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 23% quicker than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.

Battery, range and charging

Battery capacity is listed at 107.0 kWh. The recorded electric range is 476 km (296 miles). Listed energy or fuel consumption is 20.8 kWh/100km. Maximum DC charging power is 250 kW. Its listed range is about 5% below the peer average. Real-world range and charging speed still depend on temperature, speed, wheel choice, battery state and the conditions of the test cycle.

Dimensions and practicality

Its exterior dimensions are 4,900 mm (192.9 in) in length, 1,968 mm (77.5 in) in width, and 1,614 mm (63.5 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,985 mm (117.5 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 484 litres (17.1 cu ft), expanding to 1,411 litres (49.8 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 2,620 kg (5,776 lb). The recorded braked towing capacity is 2,200 kg (4,850 lb). That cargo volume is about 12% below the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.

The model range

The recorded line-up consists of Long Range Dual Motor and Performance Pack. Across the range, the specifications span 489 hp to 517 hp, 4.6 s to 4.7 s, and 476 km to 610 km, while listed starting prices run from $73,400-$89,900. Drivetrain, battery or engine choice, wheels and market equipment can all change the final figures, so the version table should be used when choosing between them.

In perspective

Compared with nearby battery-electric SUV models from the same period, the 2026 Polestar 3 is strongest on power and towing capacity, while price and cargo capacity stand out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
