#Polestar5 #ElectricPerformance #Polestar #EVReviews #TaycanRival
We’ve waited years for this one — the Polestar 5. And guess what? We’ve not only seen it, we’ve DRIVEN IT. This is the new flagship for Polestar, an 874 horsepower electric GT that promises serious performance, proper range, and next-level tech. And it delivers.
In this video, Nicola walks you through everything — from the sustainable new design, to the massive 106kWh battery, clever SmartZone front end, minimalist Google-powered interior, and even a surprise tow rating. Oh, and did we mention 0–60 in under 3 seconds?
With the Polestar 6 convertible already confirmed to share the same platform, this is just the start of something exciting.
Let us know in the comments — would you take this over a Porsche Taycan?
