Joakim and the entire team at Polestar deserve immense praise! Their work on the P2 never fails to make me smile whenever I drive it. Excited to test out the P3 and P4 soon, and judging by this video, disappointment doesn’t seem likely.
I met Joakim at the Goodwood Festival of Speed 2023 - he is a lovely guy and is a great ambassador for Polestar. The Polestar cars are a testament to his (and his team) skills and knowledge. Can't wait to see the Polestar 3 & 4 here in the UK on the roads.
Ok man.. Hands down the best video on your channel 😂 Got much love for the Polestar 3, but.. I'm actually more jealous that you got a ride along and chat with Joakim then driving the P3.. The man, the legend. Love the Polestar 2, and especially the P2 BST that Joakim also has been a part of.. Great work Kris 👏
Looks like we got ourselves a true enthusiast level electric SUV. Not too many of those around. Great to see, thanks for the video and thanks to the great Joakim for being in it!
Joakim is an absolute star. We met him on a Polestar customer day last Autumn and he and his colleagues were amazing! He gave us a wonderful presentation at their Gothenburg test track about shocks and springs - he's a remarkable guy from a remarkable team. We then got to go out on the track in a Polestar 3, 4 and prototype 5 😲
Yes Awesome Vid Kris... Cannot wait to get my P3 Performance in Australia. Not sure how the Ice driving experience relates to what our Australian driving experience will be. Roll on August...
Very nice video Kris. Since there were also Polestar 4 cars over there, did you get an opportunity to drive one? I suppose there is an embargo fort any publication or video. If so until when ?
Great video Kris, and what an awesome machine the P3 will be. Looked like a lot of fun. If I won Lotto I had be upgrading my MY24 LRSM even though I love. P3 really should be compared to the German giants. Well done.
Great video Kris! I got to experience the Polestar 3 and 4 at Polestar Day in Santa Monica last year. Would you say the driving dynamics of the 3 are on par with or better than the Polestar 2?
Kris as you ordered the ex90 Performance, will it have the same Performance? At least the volvo reps say this will be the same! We will get ex90 September/October in austria ... Finally
When will they start delivery of this model? It is already massive delayed together with the sister car Volvo EX90. And when it is finally delivered, how will the quality be? This delay must be a major part of the Polestar cash flow problems.
It just started production and their estimates are that the first ones will get to customers in April and beyond. But keep in mind, there's probably quite a large backorder-list they have to get through before getting to someone who orders today, that's why it says estimated delivery in like October here in Sweden if you order one today. Gotta get through all the pre-orders. And this is with only the one factory in China, the US factory goes live later, in the summer. That's when the volumes will go up for real. Yeah this massive delay of the Polestar 3 has hurt Polestar a lot.
@@tobias_dahlberg I wonder what state the first cars delivered are though. Have they solved all issues. I looked at this car at the eCar expo in Gothenburg about a year ago. Looks quite good. But I fear the first owners will be test drivers for Polestar. Atleast hope they will work better than the Zeekr Elbilsmagasinet drove a while ago. A model I also belive is from the same chassi?
@@chaweng155 No no, not the same platform. The Polestar 4 is on that same platform. The Volvo EX90 and Polestar 3 are on a completely bespoke platform only for those cars (as of today) that Volvo themselves developed ground up. It'll for sure be interesting to see how it is, but it is in no way connected to the other platform, these are completely different. This is the SPA2-platform, not the SEA-platform.
sure... I'll just go out and buy another 4000 Euro camera setup, travel back in time to last week ask for an extra day of filming that is dedicated to other press and film more B-Roll and alternative A-Roll because you don't want to see my face on my channel. While I am at it, is there any other magic you want me to perform with my unlimited time and budget? Perhaps you'd like me to pay you to watch me? Like free content isn't good enough? 😅🤣
Bro, I think you better stick to plain photos and boring paper specs. Obviously you don't appreciate the connection to the product through Kris and his experience with the product.
Ones things for sure polestar need to up the defrosting on the rear window , seriously though please polestar please please offer a lighter roof lining option to light gray or light beige especially with lighter seat trims , it just makes the car feel claustrophobic
Can somebody please explain why the rear-window defroster doesn't work in these cars, and why the snow wasn't scraped off the back window if the defroster doesn't work? In this video, with the camera facing the speakers and the rear of the car, it would have been nice to have seen what's out the rear window as the car is being driven.
Rear defroster wasn’t on. And the rear window was clear of ice and snow before we started. But that accumulates pretty fast when drifting on snow. Simple as that
Another EV that demands top dollar that wanted to save very little by not incorporating a roof shade for that enormous panoramic roof. Great for Icetown but useless for places that have a hot sun.

The smiles and laughter say it all! Can't wait to drive this car!
Exactly! Can’t wait to drive it on the road!

The car is the star. Smiles for the miles. Some people have the best jobs 😊

That seems like a lot of fun Kris, thanks! I think Thomas I. should invite us early adopters to one of those sessions as well 😎
It was insanely fun!
Awesome Video Kris! Nice to see you having fun with the P3 and seeing a different side of you! I like the raw unedited footage. Keep up the good work!
Kris, how did you "break it"? Was there an error message on the dashboard?
This was fun! I envy you so much right now! :D
Yes Awesome Vid Kris... Cannot wait to get my P3 Performance in Australia. Not sure how the Ice driving experience relates to what our Australian driving experience will be. Roll on August...
Wow Kris, you drove so well. Great car!
It was mostly the car that made me drive well! Haha!
Very nice video Kris. Since there were also Polestar 4 cars over there, did you get an opportunity to drive one? I suppose there is an embargo fort any publication or video. If so until when ?

What did you break? 😅👍
You look very stressed and glance at the display. Did it say "time for a coffey" or did it say "syntax error" 😅
What was the reason for suddenly going to turtle mode? What does it say about the reliability of the car?
This is an early prototype that spends all its life doing what we did in this video, a life of abuse. If anything, it shows how good this car is
Great video Kris! I got to experience the Polestar 3 and 4 at Polestar Day in Santa Monica last year. Would you say the driving dynamics of the 3 are on par with or better than the Polestar 2?
You have the best laugh 😂
Just that already makes the video fun 😊
Thanks mate!
More Polestar 3 and 4. Videos!

Cold, white and lots of fun.
Have a reservation since the first day. When do we get to drive it?

I feel asleep half way in the video.....😴😴
I fall asleep before the video started, woke up in the middle and started from the beginning - now I’m not sleepy anymore😁
