The first lucky customers have received their Polestar 3 electric SUVs, with deliveries beginning in Europe and the US
Polestar has officially begun customer deliveries of its new electric SUV, the Polestar 3. This hotly anticipated EV is the manufacturer’s third model on the road.
The initial Polestar 3 deliveries are happening across two continents, with more to follow throughout the summer. The SUV has been turning heads since its announcement, especially with the rapidly growing popularity of the brand. This anticipation drove high customer interest and led to an over-subscription of initial test drives.
Thomas Ingenlath, Polestar’s CEO, commented:
“This is an important milestone – first deliveries of Polestar 3 to our customers. Test drives start at all Polestar Spaces this coming weekend in Europe. Thousands of hand-raisers are invited to experience our great, luxurious performance SUV. Polestar is becoming a global player with the most attractive electric product range.”
Polestar hosted a special ceremony for the first Polestar 3 handovers at its headquarters in Gothenburg, Sweden. Customers received their exclusive edition SUVs as part of the special launch.
Kristian Elvefors, Polestar’s Global Head of Commercial, said:
“We always knew the Polestar 3 was going to be popular, but even we were blown away by the global media’s reviews and the response to opening up test drive bookings. It’s testament to the excitement in the market for this car and customer interest to get behind the wheel of our flagship electric SUV.”
Additional deliveries are underway for Germany and Norway. In the US, the Polestar 3 is hitting certain states first, including California, Illinois, Indiana, and New York. The U.S. will also see increased Polestar 3 production beginning this summer.
