Polestar has announced it intends to release four new cars over the next three years, and one of them will be a new version of the Polestar 4 that finally gives it a see-through rear window. Progress!

And it’ll get more than a bit of glass – Polestar said this new 4 variant will combine “the space of an estate and the versatility of an SUV with the dynamic performance that is Polestar”. So: it’ll be a fast, high-riding estate. After all, Sweden, Polestar confirms, “is famous for its estate cars”.

Could this more capacious and versatile model be a reaction to a muted response to the rear-windowless 4 since it arrived? Not according to Polestar: the lifted estate is meant to open up the car to a wider customer base. Over 10,000 4s have found homes in the UK since it arrived at the end of 2024, we’re told.

Indeed, across the globe as a whole, Polestar sold 60,119 cars last year. While we don’t have UK-only figures for the Polestar 4’s rivals, we do know last year the Porsche Macan Electric shifted 45k worldwide, the Audi Q6 e-tron 64k, and the Model Y continued its reign as the world’s best-selling EV.

Speaking of best-selling, Polestar will reveal an entirely new 2 in early 2027, and the stress here really is on ‘entirely new’. In car terms it’s already a bit of an old-timer, having first been introduced in mid-2020. In that time, Polestar’s sold over 190,000 of them.

The second-gen Polestar 2 will get new (Geely) underpinnings with upgraded motors and batteries, a fresh new look, and will be priced around what the current 2 costs. Expect to see it early in 2027.

And then after the 2 comes… the 7, because of course. That car – a ‘compact SUV’ – will be the same size as the Polestar 2, but SUV-ified. So a Geely platform, built in Europe and tuned by Polestar. Price? Around the same as the current 2, apparently.

What about the other numbers? The Polestar 5 – which we drove last year as a prototype – will be available from this summer – while the gorgeous Polestar 6 roadster has been put on ice. It’s not been mentioned in today’s announcement, and Polestar told TopGear.com the priority is on rolling out the 5 ‘halo’ car, 4 estate, new 2 and new 7.

“Following our best sales year ever, we are now launching the largest model offensive in our history,” said boss Michael Lohscheller. Indeed, those 60,119 cars sold in 2025 was a 34 per cent rise versus 2024 (44,851). Though, that’s mainly down to the Polestar 3 and 4 joining the 2 in the range. Three cars is better than one, of course.
