Polestar has created a new collection of unique ‘Arctic Circle’ cars that build onto the formula applied to the one-of-a-kind Polestar 2 Arctic Circle first shown in 2022. Now, additional Polestar 3 and Polestar 4 versions have been built to present a complete line-up of rally-inspired, one-off Arctic Circle cars that express the Swedish brand’s performance DNA. The three cars will make their public debut at the 2025 FAT Ice Race in Zell am See, Austria, on 1 February.
Born in the world of motorsport and expertly integrated by Polestar’s Head of Driving Dynamics, Joakim Rydholm, Polestar’s performance DNA is partly developed and perfected in the specifically challenging environment within the Arctic Circle in northern Sweden. With multiple Swedish rally podium finishes to his name and over 30 years in motorsport, Joakim and the Polestar Design and Brand teams have applied the rally formula to the complete Polestar model range, with each car exhibiting slightly different characteristics.
The all-electric vehicles from Polestar with an Arctic look
Built at one of Polestar’s Swedish R&D facilities, the general formula of raised ride height with custom 3-way adjustable Öhlins dampers, specialised Pirelli studded tyres, OZ Racing wheels (world premiere of the new ‘Rally Legend’), new Quad Evo front spotlights from Stedi, and bucket seats from Recaro, give the cars a rally flavour. Then, accessories are applied to the vehicles in different executions, including skis, roof racks, storage solutions and recovery equipment – bringing additional Polestar brand partnerships to the fore.
