3 Long Range Single motor (MY23-25)

The Polestar 3 Long Range Single motor (MY23-25) is a 5-seat SUV with rear-wheel drive, sold new from 2024 to 2026, when it cost £69,900 in the UK, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 7.8 seconds, slower than 69% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 329 miles (530 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 89% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 7th of 242 SUVs.

It uses around 3.1 mi/kWh (202 Wh/km), less efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 107 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 150 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 355 miles (571 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it supports vehicle-to-load (V2L), so it can power appliances from its battery. The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Second-hand, a 2024 example is estimated at £33,200–£37,400 and a 2026 one at £39,800–£45,400, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2024 car should still manage about 316 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
