Polestar has added a rear window to its 2027 electric SUV, addressing criticism of the windowless coupe it replaces.

Polestar has introduced a rear window on its 2027 electric SUV, responding to criticism of the windowless rear-end on the existing Polestar 4 'coupe'. The new model is a more practical and family-friendly version of the Geely-owned Swedish brand's premium mid-size electric crossover.

The SUV features a taller, longer rear roofline that provides more headroom for rear passengers and increased cargo capacity. It is the first Polestar model to include roof rails and has dark contrasting body lower cladding for a more rugged appearance. Polestar CEO Michael Lohscheller said the design blends 'the space of an estate and the versatility of an SUV' while retaining the dynamic, driver-focused feel the brand pursues.

The 2027 model year brings a rejigged chassis and sharper pricing, with the entry price dropping by $4,500 compared to the previous model year. The new SUV debuts features including a Camping mode and vehicle-to-load functionality, which will also become available to other models in the lineup via over-the-air software updates.
