The Polestar 5 makes its debut today at the 2022 Goodwood Festival of Speed in development prototype form, and on this occasion the brand has revealed the flagship EV’s first powertrain details.<\/p>\n

Hang on tight because this is exciting stuff. Described as a “high-performance electric 4-door GT with proper sports car credentials,” the Polestar 5<\/a> will feature a new top-of-the-line electric powertrain that is currently under development in Sweden.<\/p>\n

Built on an 800-volt architecture, the Polestar 5 will pack a dual motor powertrain with a targeted output of 650 kilowatts (871 horsepower\/884 PS) and 900 Newton-meters (664 pound feet) of system torque. The setup will feature a new rear electric motor providing “superior output” and a “high-output” front motor.<\/p>\n

No performance specs were revealed, but they should be impressive seeing as\u00a0the Polestar 5 will feature a unique bonded aluminum chassis<\/a> that will help lower the vehicle’s overall weight and deliver “the vehicle dynamics signature to create a driving experience that is as desirable as the design.”\u00a0The targeted range is 600 kilometers (372 miles), although that rating could be calculated on the WRTP cycle.<\/p>\n

In an investor presentation in May 2022, Polestar mentioned it is working on a 650-kW dual motor powertrain which includes a 103-kWh battery. Thanks to the 800-volt architecture, the said battery would be able to charge to 80% SoC in approximately 20 minutes.<\/p>\n

The presentation also mentioned bi-directional charging and vehicle-to-grid capabilities, as well as a two-speed gearbox with dual-clutch and disconnect feature. Mind you, the company did not say explicitly that the Polestar 5 will get these features.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Polestar 5 is shaping up to be a superb 4-door GT and a true Polestar at heart. The platform combines low-volume performance car attributes with modern technological advances to bring light-weight, high-rigidity sports car chassis technology into mass production.”<\/p>\n

Pete Allen, Head of Polestar UK R&D<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Goodwood Festival of Speed visitors will be able to get a taste of the Polestar 5’s performance by watching the completely camouflaged development prototype<\/a> run up the iconic Goodwood hill twice daily during the event in the “First Glance” group.<\/p>\n

\n

“The new powertrain we are working on will set a new brand benchmark in our high-performing cars. Combining strong electric motor engineering ability with advances in light-weight platform technology is leading to truly stunning driver’s cars.”<\/p>\n

J\u00f6rg Brandscheid, Polestar’s CTO and Head of R&D<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The production version of the Polestar<\/a> 5 is planned for launch in 2024 as the third of three new EVs expected to debut in the coming three years, following the Polestar 3 and Polestar 4 electric SUVs.\u00a0<\/p>\n
