Should you buy one?

While I wouldn’t suggest immediately rushing out and ordering one, the Polestar 4 is an appealing alternative to the usual premium SUVs. Its calming interior is a delight to be in and it’s spacious for people, too. It’s good, if not thrilling to drive and the range is good, too.

We’d advise keeping it cheap and opt for the single motor. Use the money to tick the box for the light Nappa leather interior and you’re sorted. Ultimately, we’d say a Porsche Macan Electric is a better choice for keen drivers. Those that need a big boot should bear in mind that even the far cheaper Tesla Model Y can hold more cargo.

What we like

The interior ambiance, driving experience, range and generous standard kit list.

What we don’t like

Relatively small boot, not enough physical controls inside, not as much fun as a Macan.
