2025 Polestar 4 Summary

Polestar finally has more than one offering in its Australian model range. Following the Polestar 2 sedan that arrived in late 2021, and the recently launched Polestar 3 large SUV, the Geely-owned marque has just launched the model that is expected to be its top seller.

The Polestar 4 is a medium coupe-style SUV with liftback vibes, and it is set to line up against some of the most popular EVs on the market, including the Tesla Model Y.

Although, as Polestar execs claim, and the price suggests, it’s a more premium offering than the Tesla.

It is loaded with new technology, including a digital rear-view camera that replaces a traditional rear windscreen, which will either appeal to, or alienate buyers. Probably the former given the appeal of new tech to EV buyers.

But can the Polestar 4 snatch attention away from Tesla and the other solid electric SUVs of a similar size? Read on to find out.

2025 Zeekr 7X Summary

Zeekr isn’t your average Chinese newcomer brand.

Born from ideal conditions in the primordial automotive soup created in the blend between Geely and its Swedish subsidiaries, Zeekr promises European driving refinement blended with the rapid development cycles and intense technological focus of China.

In some ways, you can think of it as the opposite and more Chinese side of the coin to Polestar, with Geely and Volvo as parents.

You’ve probably already heard the chatter around its first two models which have just arrived in Australia the X small SUV (the brand’s take on the Volvo EX30) and its wild 009 people mover, but what we’re looking at today, is its next and possibly most significant model, the 7X mid-size SUV.

Set to arrive in the second half of 2025, we were granted a very brief preview drive of a top-spec Chinese version in the brand’s home province. Is this electric mid-sizer worth looking out for? Read on to find out.
