Polestar announced it has officially opened up sales of its long-promised 4 crossover SUV as a 2026 model, available to US customers starting today. Below, we’ve included performance specs and pricing separated by each model variant.
The Polestar 4 is the, you guessed it, fourth model from the Geely-owned, Swedish-designed automaker. The 4 was unveiled in 2023 before it kicked off production in China later that year.
Those EVs were followed by deliveries to Europe and Australia in 2024, although US customers have had to continue to wait. In April 2024, Polestar said it was officially opening orders for the 4 in the US, starting at $54,900 and available in eight (yes, eight) different variants, built in North America.
Deliveries were expected to follow in Q2 2025, but Polestar faced several hurdles, including the appointment of a new CEO and the looming threat of tariffs from the Trump Administration. As such, Polestar has regrouped and returned with updated timelines for its latest model.
As of this morning, the Polestar 4 is on sale in the US as a 2026 model that will initially be assembled in Korea. It starts at $56,400. You can learn more below.

The 2026 Polestar 4 is FINALLY on sale in North America
Per the automaker, the 2026 Polestar 4 is officially on sale in the United States and can now be configured at Polestar.com. When it was still a 2025 model, Polestar said the 4 would be built alongside its 3 sibling in North America, but things have changed, at least as US sales begin.
2026 Polestar 4 EVs destined for North America will instead be built in Busan, South Korea. Per the head of Polestar North America, Rick Bryant:
Following the successful launch of Polestar 4 in other markets around the world, we are thrilled to open the order books for the 2026 Polestar 4 in North America, which will all be built in Busan, South Korea. Polestar 4 confidently enters the premium performance class within the D-SUV segment. Our SUV coupe’s innovative design offers generous interior space and a stunning appearance. Coupled with the assembled-in-the-U.S. Polestar 3, we now offer two dynamic SUV options for North American customers
As a 2026 model, Polestar appears to have slightly trimmed down its 4 variants, now offering five options for North American customers. Here’s how they break down:
2026 Polestar 4 Variant | Drivetrain | Battery Capacity |
Max Charge Rate (DC) | EPA Range (Est.) | Power | Torque | Acceleration (0-60 mph) | Starting MSRP* |
Long Range Single Motor (w/ standard Pilot Pack) | RWD | 100 kWh | 200 kW | 300 miles | 272 hp | 253 lb-ft | 6.9 seconds | $56,400 |
Long Range Single Motor (w/ Pilot and Plus Pack) | RWD | 100 kWh | 200 kW | 300 miles | 272 hp | 253 lb-ft | 6.9 seconds | $61,900 |
Long Range Dual Motor (w/ standard Pilot Pack) | AWD | 100 kWh | 200 kW | 270 miles | 544 hp | 506 lb-ft | 3.7 seconds | $62,900 |
Long Range Dual Motor (w/ Pilot and Plus Pack) | AWD | 100 kWh | 200 kW | 270 miles | 544 hp | 506 lb-ft | 3.7 seconds | $68,400 |
Long Range Dual Motor (w/ Pilot, Plus and Performance Pack) | AWD | 100 kWh | 200 kW | 270 miles | 544 hp | 506 lb-ft | 3.7 seconds | $72,900 |
You can see how the promised initial variants compare here. It looks like Polestar nixed any variant that initially had a “Pro Pack.” The automaker has also removed the Long Range Single Motor trim, which was supposed to start at an MSRP of $54,900. That’s why the current MSRPs seem higher, albeit only slightly if at all.
Polestar pointed out that its Long Range Dual Motor variant of the 2026 4 is its fastest production model to date, accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds. I’d take that all day.
Production for North American customers of the 2026 Polestar 4 is expected to begin in South Korea this summer, followed by initial customer deliveries this fall. What do you guys think? Will the Polestar 4 be worth the wait?
