The 2027 Polestar 4 gives Quebec shoppers a real fork in the road: the coupe, with no rear window, or the SUV, with an upright tailgate and glass behind you. Both body styles offer a rear motor and a dual motor, so the decision rests on space, sightlines, and look.

This guide sorts the choice by what you notice every day: what you see in the mirror, how the back seat feels, and what fits behind it.

Polestar 4 Coupe and SUV Side by Side

The motor outputs match across both bodies. The differences sit in the rear of the car, so that is where the rest of this guide spends its time.

Sightlines: A Screen Behind You or Glass Behind You

The coupe has no rear window. A rear-facing HD camera feeds an 8.9-inch digital mirror, and you can switch it between the live camera view and a regular mirror view. The camera view frees up interior space, and it stays clear however high the cargo area is loaded.

The coupe also carries 11 cameras and 12 ultrasonic sensors, including four 360-degree short-range cameras and a rear HD camera.

The SUV opens the rear vision field with a real rear window and a conventional mirror as standard. If you want the wider field of view with the luggage compartment fully loaded, the digital mirror from the coupe is an option on the SUV.

So if you like a glass-and-mirror view you check without thinking, the SUV’s standard setup fits. If you like a camera view that ignores what is stacked behind you, the coupe’s mirror is the feature you will use daily.

Back Seat and Cargo: Headroom, Glass, and Gear

The SUV’s more upright rear end adds 2.5 cm of second-row headroom to an already spacious cabin. Taller passengers will notice it from the back seat first. The SUV also has a larger panoramic glass roof as standard, stretching all the way back to the tailgate, with 99.5% UV protection.

The optional electrochromic glass roof on the SUV dims electrically. You choose fully transparent, fully tinted, or selectively shaded sections from the centre display.

The coupe has its own glass story: a full-length, UV- and noise-reducing laminated panoramic roof, with electrochromic glass as an option. Second-row privacy glass, and electric reclining rear seatbacks with the Plus pack, suit passengers who like to settle in for a long ride.

On cargo, the two sit close with the seats up: 526 L for the coupe, 530 L for the SUV. The gap opens with the seats folded, at 1,536 L versus 1,665 L. That extra 129 L is the room for long, bulky loads.

The coupe adds underfloor and front storage compartments, which take care of cables and smaller items.

Powertrains: One Choice on Either Body

The rear motor is a single 200 kW unit with 253 lb-ft of torque. On the coupe it makes 272 hp, reaches 100 km/h in 7.1 seconds, and is rated at 499 km (NRCan) with consumption of 21.7 kWh/100 km. It suits shoppers who put range and efficiency first.

The dual motor adds a second 200 kW motor and all-wheel drive, for 544 hp and 506 lb-ft. On the coupe it reaches 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds and is rated at 451 km (NRCan), at 24.8 kWh/100 km. It suits drivers who want power to all four wheels and stronger acceleration.

The coupe also offers a Dual motor with Performance Pack. It adds 22-inch forged wheels, Brembo brakes with Swedish gold callipers, and active dampers with Polestar Engineered chassis tuning. The pack requires the dual motor and the Plus pack.

Charging and Coverage

The coupe’s 100 kWh battery accepts up to 200 kW at a DC fast charger, going from 10 to 80% in 30 minutes. That is a coffee-and-stretch stop on a long drive. At home, the 11 kW onboard charger takes the battery from 0 to 100% in 11 hours, so an evening plug-in covers the next day.

The coupe’s battery warranty runs 8 years or 160,000 km. The vehicle warranty is 4 years or 80,000 km, corrosion coverage runs 12 years, and roadside assistance is included for 4 years. The service interval is up to 2 years or 30,000 km, and over-the-air updates are complimentary for life.

Screens, Sound, and Comfort Upgrades

The coupe pairs a 15.4-inch centre display with a 10.2-inch driver display. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Google Assistant with Google Home integration are standard. Standard audio is an 8-speaker system.

The Plus pack adds a 14.7-inch head-up display, a 5.7-inch rear control screen, and Harman Kardon sound with 12 speakers and 1,320 W. It also brings 12-way front seats, heated rear seats, a heated steering wheel, and 3-zone climate.

The Nappa upgrade steps up to a 16-speaker, 1,400 W system with four headrest speakers. It adds massage and ventilated front seats.

Which Polestar 4 Fits Your Drive?

If you want a low, sleek profile and a camera mirror that sees past whatever you have packed, the coupe fits. Its design is the point: frameless windows, flush e-latch handles, and a rear with no glass at all. For you, the coupe’s digital mirror is the deciding feature.

If you carry tall passengers, load the back often, or prefer a window behind you, the SUV fits. The extra 2.5 cm of second-row headroom, the larger glass roof, and the 1,665 L of folded cargo space change the day-to-day picture. The optional digital mirror keeps the coupe’s wide view within reach.

The powertrain choice runs the same either way. Pick the rear motor for efficiency, or the dual motor for all-wheel drive and acceleration.

Choosing Your 2027 Polestar 4 Body Style

The Polestar 4 coupe trades rear glass for a camera mirror and a sleek shape. The SUV adds a rear window, more headroom, and more folded cargo volume. Both offer rear-motor and dual-motor power, so the decision comes down to how you see, sit, and load.
