5 Dual Motor

The Polestar 5 Dual Motor is a 4-seat saloon with all-wheel drive, on sale in the UK from £89,500. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 3.9 seconds, quicker than 85% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 360 miles (580 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 97% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 6th of 48 saloons.

It uses around 3.4 mi/kWh (183 Wh/km), about the same as the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 106 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 210 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 434 miles (698 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Its UK starting price works out at £248 per mile of real-world range, close to the median for saloons (£245 per mile).

Second-hand, a 2025 example is estimated at £51,000–£58,200, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2025 car should still manage about 353 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
