You could, in some ways, think of the Polestar 3 as the ‘coupe’ version of the Volvo EX90. A five-seater rather than a four-seater, the Polestar 3 bins the EX90’s extra seats and height in favour of a sleek profile and a rewarding driving experience. A fiendishly complex rear axle gives the 3 tremendous agility for such a big car, and the minimalist interior is gorgeous. That said, the touchscreen has to do too much, and it’s not the most efficient EV around, plus there’s little point in upgrading to the more powerful version.
