Polestar makes one-off Arctic Circle editions of the Polestar 3 and Polestar 4

Polestar has now created one-off Arctic Circle editions of its Polestar 3 and Polestar 4, following a similar version of the Polestar 2 that was first shown in 2022. These are rally inspired and meant to "express the Swedish brand's performance DNA", the company says.

The trio will make its public debut at the 2025 FAT Ice Race in Zell am See, Austria, on February 1. They are "born in the world of motorsport and expertly integrated" by Polestar's Head of Driving Dynamics, Joakim Rydholm", who has multiple Swedish rally podiums to his name and over 30 years in motorsport.

The general formula for all three Arctic Circle editions is a raised ride height with custom 3-way adjustable Öhlins dampers, specialised Pirelli studded tires, OZ Racing wheels, new Quad Evo front spotlights from Stedi, and Recaro bucket seats. Accessories are applied in "different executions" to each model, including skis, roof racks, storage solutions and recovery equipment. Here's a handy table detailing all the modifications:

Polestar CEO Michael Lohscheller said:

The Arctic Circle collection illustrates our unique performance DNA, rooted in motorsport and combined with Scandinavian design. We develop our cars under challenging conditions within the Arctic Circle in Sweden, and at the FAT Ice Race we will showcase that on ice there is nothing better than a Polestar. We are really excited to be part of this special event with our full model line-up, where it’s all about car culture and the performance experience.

Joakim Rydholm said:

We created something truly special when we worked on the Polestar 2 Arctic Circle, and to now apply that formula to our two new SUVs has been a fun and challenging task. We have worked closely with our leading technology partners to bring bespoke engineering solutions to these cars that emphasise our performance DNA – and make them incredibly fun to drive.
