Polestar has unveiled plans to expand its portfolio of electric vehicles (EVs) significantly in the coming years. Building on its lineup of numerically named models, the brand is set to introduce several new vehicles, including the Polestar 5 and Polestar 7, alongside updates to its production strategy.
The Polestar 5, slated for a 2025 launch, will be a luxurious four-door grand tourer inspired by the Precept concept revealed in 2020. Equipped with an advanced dual-motor system producing 884 horsepower, the EV will feature a 103.0-kWh battery offering a minimum range of 300 miles. The Polestar 5 will also debut a company-specific bonded-aluminum platform and an 800-volt electrical architecture designed to enhance performance and charging efficiency.
Adding to its growing SUV lineup, Polestar plans to release the Polestar 7 later this decade. Positioned as a compact SUV, the model is expected to offer a more traditional design compared to the Polestar 4’s sleek, sloping roofline.
Polestar’s manufacturing footprint continues to evolve, with the Polestar 7 planned for production in Europe. This adds to its existing facilities in China, South Carolina, and South Korea, which currently handle production for models like the Polestar 3 and Polestar 4. The company also announced a shift toward a unified platform for all future vehicles, aiming to streamline development and manufacturing processes.
Despite its ambitious expansion, Polestar’s naming convention has raised questions about its consistency. The numerical order reflects the sequence of launches rather than vehicle size, with the Polestar 7 potentially positioned between the Polestar 3 and Polestar 4 in terms of dimensions.
As Polestar continues to innovate and expand, the new models and strategic updates represent key steps in its goal to establish itself as a major player in the global EV market. The upcoming Polestar 5 and Polestar 7, along with a planned Polestar 6 sports car, are expected to shape the brand’s identity in the years ahead.
