Fast charging at a public charger (10→80%)

Fast charging on the road (DC = the rapid charger you find at motorway stops, not home charging): indicative time from 10 to 80 percent, calculated from the specs — not measured by us. Actual time varies with charger, temperature and battery level at the start. The 10→80% window is the standard benchmark because the final stretch (80→100%) deliberately charges slower to protect the battery.
Charging situation10→80% (minutes)
At the car's own maximum charging rate (200 kW) ~ 34
At a 150 kW charger ~ 45
At a 50 kW charger ~ 135
How is this calculated? We assume around 70% of the battery sits in the 10→80% window and an average power around 62% of peak (the curve tapers towards the end). At a fixed charger the power is capped to that charger. An estimate, not a manufacturer figure.

Charging at home uses AC power and is slower: a home wallbox typically delivers 7.4 to 11 kW. That is separate from the fast-charge times shown above.

Frequently asked

What does the Polestar 4 cost roughly?

Indicative starting price € 59,800 (reference date 2026-05-20). Not an offer.

What is the WLTP range of the Polestar 4?

620 km WLTP (manufacturer figure). Owners typically report less in everyday driving, especially in cold weather. See the reviews below.

How much can the Polestar 4 tow?

1500 kg braked (with trailer brakes) — the figure that applies when your trailer (such as a caravan) has its own brakes. Manufacturer figure; the exact, binding limit for a specific car is on its registration document.

How long does fast-charging the Polestar 4 take (10→80%)?

Roughly 34 minutes on a 200 kW charger (10→80%, factory calculation, indicative). Actual time depends on battery temperature and the charging curve — the car's charging speed drops as the battery fills.

How big is the battery in the Polestar 4?

100 kWh usable capacity (manufacturer figure). Check the warranty terms of the specific car for capacity retention.

What does the Polestar 4 use in real-world driving?

The factory WLTP figure is 17.8 kWh/100 km. Owners typically report more in mixed use, with the usual winter penalty. See the owner experiences below.

How much boot space does the Polestar 4 have?

526 litres (manufacturer figure). See the spec sheet for the full dimensions.

In depth

Long Range Single Motor with 272 hp on the rear axle, 100 kWh battery and WLTP range 620 km (manufacturer figure). DC charging up to 200 kW, braked towing 1,500 kg. Striking design without rear window: rearward view runs via a roof camera onto a digital rear view mirror screen.

About the Polestar 4 Long Range Single Motor (2024)

Independent spec and rating reference. No offers, no sales.

The Polestar 4 sits between the Polestar 2 and Polestar 3, on Geely's SEA platform (also under the Smart #1 and Volvo EX30). It launched in EU markets in 2024 and is built in Hangzhou (China). The Long Range Single Motor version has 272 hp on the rear axle, a 100 kWh battery and WLTP range of 620 km (manufacturer figure). DC charging peaks at 200 kW; braked towing is up to 1,500 kg. Boot is 526 l with seats up, including underfloor storage; folding the rear seats opens about 1,536 l.

In practice

WLTP consumption is around 17.8 to 18.4 kWh/100km (manufacturer figure). Real world figures from owner forums settle higher, particularly at motorway speeds and in winter, but the dataset is still small (not measured by us). The starting price stands at 59,800 euro for the Long Range Single Motor in EU markets, an indicative figure that varies by national configurator and option pack.

Points to note

The Polestar 4 has no rear window. The cargo area extends up to the roof line and rearward vision runs through a roof mounted camera shown on a digital rear view mirror screen. Owner reports are mixed: clearer view in some conditions, but eye strain or focus shift compared to a glass mirror in others. The 14.5 inch central screen handles almost all secondary controls; physical climate buttons are absent (recurring Polestar trait). At about 2,200 kg kerb weight the car is heavy for the segment, noticeable in chassis behaviour and tyre wear.
