After the Polestar 2, it’s now the turn of the 3 and 4 to receive an exclusive treatment inspired by the Arctic Circle, forming a complete line that reveals the performance DNA of the fully electric Swedish brand.
Built at one of Polestar’s research and development centers in Sweden, the Arctic Circle models feature a customized setup, including raised suspension, adjustable three-way Öhlins dampers, snow-specific Pirelli tires, OZ Racing wheels, Stedi Quad Evo auxiliary lights, and Recaro sports seats.
Each model also receives specific accessories, such as skis, roof racks, storage solutions, and recovery equipment, highlighting Polestar’s partnerships with recognized brands.
These special versions of Polestar are available in Dual Motor Long Range Performance variants, meaning they come with two electric motors capable of delivering a combined power of 510 hp and 910 Nm of maximum torque for the Polestar 3, and 537 hp and 600 Nm of torque for the Polestar 4.
The three special models from the Swedish brand will make their public debut at the FAT Ice Race 2025, which will take place in Zell am See, Austria, on February 1st.
“The Arctic Circle collection illustrates our unique performance DNA, rooted in competition and combined with Scandinavian design. We develop our cars in extreme conditions in the Arctic Circle in Sweden, and at the FAT Ice Race, we will demonstrate that, on ice, there is nothing better than a Polestar. We are very excited to be part of this special event with our entire range, where the focus is on car culture and performance experience.”, said Michael Lohscheller, CEO of Polestar.
It is certain that the Polestar 3 and 4 inspired by the Arctic Circle will not go into production, but they still reveal the capabilities of the Swedish brand’s electric models when tested in adverse conditions.
