Video Summary
The Polestar 4 is a coupe-like sedan with a focus on aerodynamics. The car features a slimmed-down design, a pinched nose, and two-part headlights. Side aero is also there. The model has a 100kWh battery, with a 367-mile range, and a futuristic taillight. The rear lacks a traditional window.The interior features the best dashboard the reviewer has seen in a Polestar. The tech screen is the biggest they have seen. It makes the technology user-friendly and customizable. Custom shortcuts are available, and the map can fill the whole screen. The instrument cluster has a map display. It is user-friendly, quick-reacting, and has generous storage space. Seats have a bucket shape but are comfortable, and a panoramic sunroof gives an airy feeling. Back seat has generous room, especially in the middle seat.
There are cameras to compensate for the rear window issue. The strength of the rear is on the top slab. This affects the boot space, but there is a significant amount of underfloor storage and a front boot. Overall, space management is well done.
The car is quick, but a potential issue lies with the car's sluggish initial acceleration in certain modes. There is some roll to it in the corners. It can stop quickly and is powerful in the anchors. Adaptive cruise and steering assist features are there, but their implementation has limitations. A problem noted is the lack of buttons, though there are shortcuts to them.
The reviewer compared the car to the Tesla Model S, for its potential to have similar future success. The Polestar 4 does drive fabulously, handles well, is smooth, and minimizes road noise.
