Polestar is currently enjoying a surge in sales with the addition of the Polestar 3 to its US lineup last year. The former Volvo performance brand wants to keep that momentum moving forward by introducing an updated version of its coupe SUV, the Polestar 4. The changes for the new model year aren’t groundbreaking, but customers who are in the market for one will certainly appreciate the pricing.
For the 2026 model year, the Polestar 4 will retain the price tag it had when it landed on American soil last year. The biggest change is that US customers now get the global-spec design and features, including the camera-based rearview system. Yes, 2026 Polestar 4 EVs won’t have rear windshields (replaced by a roof-mounted HD camera), so we’re hoping they won’t suffer the recent fate of other Polestars in this regard.
