Polestar, Chinese Polestar, founded in 2017, is a high-end new energy vehicle brand jointly built by Geely and Volvo. However, throughout the 4 years of development, only the polar star 1 and the main high-performance pole star 2 models that position super luxury sports cars have not yet formed a "big climate" in the market.
In order to further improve the product layout and expand the competitiveness of the brand market, it also brought PoleStar 3 some time ago. Recently, the car has been basically determined to be officially released in 2022, when it will be put into production in Both China and the United States.

Combined with the latest renderings and previously unveiled spy photos, it can be seen that polestar 3 will adopt the brand's latest family design language, such as the iconic headlamp shape and grille will continue to be retained.
Polar Star 3 will also be equipped with a panoramic canopy, in addition, you can see a very obvious spoiler at the rear, which is very suitable for the brand's main sporty attributes.
Polestar 3 is positioned as a pure electric medium-sized SUV, the body size will be comparable to the Volvo XC90, the specific data can be referred to, the length, width and height are 4953/1958/1776mm, and the wheelbase is 2984mm.
It should be mentioned that the PoleStar 3 only offers two rows of seating layouts, which means that the interior seating space will be more advantageous than the Volvo XC90.
The Polestar 3 will also be equipped with top-of-the-line LiDAR sensors from technology company Luminar and NVIDIA's central processing unit to provide hardware and software support for its high-speed automatic driver assistance system.
While the Polestar 3 will share the SPA2 architecture with the next-generation Volvo XC90, its powertrain will be built separately.
From the information previously released, the output power of Polestar 3 is 320kW-410kW, the acceleration of 100 kilometers is within 4s, and the cruising range under WLTP conditions is in the range of 450-600km.
From the body size and performance parameters can be indirectly known that the positioning of the PoleStar 3 will not be too low, there has been information that its direct competitor is Tesla Model X, if true, the predicted price will also be in line with the Model X.
In addition to the PoleStar 3, the PoleStar brand also announced its future product plans to achieve a sales target of 290,000 vehicles by 2025, and plans to launch two models, the PoleStar 4 and the PoleStar 5 in five years.

Polar star 4 will be unveiled in 2023, is a pure electric cross-border SUV, positioned lower than the Pole Star 3, is expected to start at 45,000 euros (about 320,000 yuan), the target mileage is 600km.
(Concept Car Precept)
The Polestar 5 is scheduled to launch in 2024 and is positioned as a large luxury four-door GT model, which is more in line with the previously released concept car Precision, or it may be a mass production version of the concept car illustrated.
As far as the current Polar Star brand positioning attributes and the performance parameters of the model should be concerned, whether it is Polar Star 3, Pole Star 4 or even Polar Star 5, the subsequent market price will obviously not be too close to the people.
Of course, as consumers, we don't have to mind too much, after all, luxury, high-performance electric vehicles are originally a "niche" circle, and it is right to be exposed to buying, and if you can't touch it, you can smell good.
Looking forward to follow-up information.
