Polestar debuted its full-sized SUV to media, dealers, and customers at a special event in Copehagen, showing off a crucial model for the brand as it inches closer to a full lineup.

“The core of the brand is Polestar 3,” said Polestar CEO Thomas Ingenlath during a discussion following the reveal. “This is the first vehicle designed first and foremost as a Polestar and defines our design direction going forward.” Built on the same platform as the Volvo EX90 (which debuts next month), the Polestar 3 eschews the three-row family-oriented packaging for a spacious two-row, five-seat configuration. “This is not a people mover, but a luxurious SUV,” Ingenlath explained.

A strong, athletic stance defines the Polestar 3, with relatively high ground clearance and a lower aerodynamic roofline. Many elements carry over from the Precept concept, including the dual-blade lighting signature and the front face, which Polestar designers dub the “smart zone,” which houses a plethora of cameras and sensors for advanced driver assistance systems (shared with Volvo).
