    Polestar 3

    Polestar 3

    FROM
    $121,920

    Polestar’s fastback sedan and second production model arrived in 2022 and underwent its first evolution shortly thereafter in 2024.

    The first model looked distinctly like a Volvo S60, probably because Polestar’s parent company, Geely, intended for it to be a Volvo in the first place.

    It came into its own look by the 2024 edition, which also offered drivers two new options in the Polestar 2 lineup.

    That said, the Polestar 2 certainly still resembles the S60 in price, starting well above the likes of BYD Seal or Tesla Model 3 – but it at least provides better range.

    The line-up currently starts at $121,920 for the 3 Long Range Single Motor and ranges through to $159,620 for the range-topping 3 LR Dual MTR Perf Pilot + PK.
