A lightly camouflaged Polestar 4 SUV — reportedly a twin‑motor, high‑performance prototype — was filmed doing hot laps on the Nürburgring Nordschleife on 9 November 2026, underlining that the Swedish brand is finalising chassis and handling set‑up for the body variant now offered to European customers.

What we saw at the Nürburgring

The video shows a production‑intention Polestar 4 with roof rails, a more linear roofline and a conventional rear window (a departure from the coupe’s camera‑only rear view) — changes Polestar has already confirmed on the SUV variant. The tester wears Polestar performance wheels and yellow brake callipers, which observers say point to a range‑topping dual‑motor/performance specification undergoing final calibration.

Polestar itself placed the new Polestar 4 SUV on sale from 2 September 2026, and the company lists the SUV among its near‑term product roll‑out plans for late 2026. Company filings and investor material also show the model is built in Geely/RKM plants (Busan and Hangzhou Bay) with European deliveries scheduled from Q4 2026 and early 2027 depending on market and configuration.

Technical and commercial facts (what Polestar says)

Polestar’s specification sheet and market reporting list the SUV at the same platform and battery sizes as the coupe: a 100 kWh gross battery, Rear‑Motor variants claiming up to 630 km WLTP range and Dual‑Motor versions aimed at higher performance figures. In Germany the Polestar 4 SUV Rear‑Motor entry price is €57,900 with Dual‑Motor from €65,900; first German deliveries were communicated for Q4 2026 with some configurator windows indicating January–February 2027 delivery slots. Charging capability and battery figures match the coupé (DC charging up to 200 kW, 10–80% in roughly 30 minutes).

What this means for the market

For German and Austrian buyers the Polestar 4 SUV brings a lower‑priced, more practical alternative to the coupe while keeping competitive WLTP range claims — a direct play at customers who want EV performance with conventional rear visibility and more usable space. Starting German list price €57,900 places it in direct contention with premium compact EV SUVs and higher‑trim mid‑size crossovers, an important position for fleets and private buyers in DE and AT where range, charging speed and total cost of ownership drive purchase decisions.

For dealers and service networks the Nürburgring sighting confirms Polestar’s development timetable: the manufacturer is tuning the chassis in Germany and accelerating retail readiness after the 2 September sales opening. Production in Busan and the expected Q4‑2026 to early‑2027 delivery window mean import logistics, homologation and dealer training will be active through winter — all relevant to order‑to‑delivery timing for German and Austrian customers.
