2025 Polestar 3 Long Range Single Motor details at last

Well, well, well! Polestar is at it again, giving us a new variant to drool over—the Polestar 3 Long Range Single Motor. Set to make its debut in Australia, this fresh addition to the lineup starts at a tidy $118,420, with an impressive preliminary range of up to 700 km. As with all EV range estimates, we will add a big fat “SIH” to the end of that.

First off, the Polestar 3 isn’t just any old SUV—it’s the Swedish supermodel of the electric vehicle world. Think clean, minimalist lines, understated elegance, and a performance pedigree that’ll make you do a double-take. But the new Long Range Single Motor variant brings something more to the table: rear-wheel drive. That’s right, they’ve stripped things back to basics, putting all the grunt on the rear axle for a pure driving experience.

Now, what exactly are you getting for your $118k? For starters, the same 111 kWh battery as its dual-motor sibling, but it’s now paired with a single 220 kW motor. It’s not a neck-snapping dragster, with a 0-100 km/h time of 7.8 seconds, but it’s not about raw speed. This Polestar is for the discerning driver who craves refined performance, a vehicle that whispers “luxury” while being capable enough for the everyday.

The design is pure Polestar. That Scandinavian minimalist aesthetic is sleek, sharp, and sexy. From active LED headlights to flush door handles and a panoramic glass roof, this thing looks like it was sculpted by the boozy gods of design. Those 20-inch Aero wheels are fab. It will be interesting to experience the difference in ride between the active damping on 21” and 22” wheels VS the passive damping on 20 inchers. Also, why do we still use inches only when referring to wheels and penises?

Inside, you’ll be swaddled in responsibly sourced materials (Polestar has a conscience, after all), and you’ll be greeted by a 14.5-inch multimedia touchscreen that integrates with your smartphone better than a Tinder date gone right. Triple-zone climate control, heated seats, and recycled materials everywhere? You’re practically hugging a tree while you drive. And let’s face it, in 2025, we all need a bit of green in our life.

But let’s talk about what really matters—the drive. Polestar is promising that this beautious rear-wheel-drive won’t just handle like its dual-motor cousin but will also be a hoot to drive. Thanks to a passive damper system, the ride is cushy without feeling disconnected from the road. Hydraulic Rebound Stops and Frequency Selective Damping? Sounds complicated, but trust me, it just means this SUV can handle a sharp corner like a dancer on pointe.

And if you’re wondering about the stopping power (because 220 kW and 490 Nm of torque will need some serious brakes), Polestar’s got you covered. The same Brembo braking system as the other Polestar 3 variants will bring this beauty to a halt with the kind of confidence we wish we all had.

So, is this the eco-luxury dream SUV we’ve been waiting for? With a solid 700 km range between charges and the ability to hit 80% battery in just 30 minutes, it’s looking like Polestar is making the switch to EVs more enticing by the minute. And in true Polestar fashion, you’ll have your pick of exterior colours, interior layouts, and even new 21-inch alloys if you opt for the Pro Pack. Because who doesn’t want a bit of extra flair?

In short, the Polestar 3 Long Range Single Motor isn’t just about getting from point A to B—it’s about looking good, feeling good, and doing good. Head over to Polestar’s website to order yours and get ready to make all your mates jealous when deliveries start in early 2025.

Oh, and if you happen to be road-tripping to Australia’s gay beats, the 700 km range means you’ll get there without a hitch. There is double entendre enough for everyone so we’ll just leave it there shall we?
