New York 2024: The Polestar 4 Makes North American Debut
• The Polestar 4, presented yesterday at the New York Auto Show,is getting a $64,900 starting price in Canada.
New York, NY - A new player joins the Polestar lineup this year. The Polestar 4 compact SUV will be tasked with competing with the Tesla Model Y, most notably.
At the same time, the company revealed the price range for both the U.S. and Canada. The base version will start at $64,900 in Canada, which just happens to make eligible for the federal and some provincial government rebates. The range of this variant is announced at 300 miles, or 483 km.
In this case, we're talking about a single-motor model offering a rear-wheel drive configuration. This variant will deliver 272 hp and 253 lb-ft of torque, enabling it to accelerate from 0 to 97 km/h in 7.4 seconds. That's a relatively slow time considering the claimed power, which suggests that the model isn't light.
Switching to the twin-motor variant, you get all-wheel drive, of course, but more importantly, more power - 544 hp and 506 lb-ft of torque. Acceleration time quickens to 3.7 seconds, again for the same measurement.
