AutoExec Summary

The Polestar 4 is a crucial model for the Swedish EV maker as it faces significant challenges. Competing with the Tesla Model Y, Kia EV6, and Hyundai Ioniq 5, it is available in two variants: Long Range Single Motor RWD ($81,500) and Long Range Dual Motor AWD ($93,050). Notably, it lacks a rear window, using a roof-mounted camera instead. The SUV-coupe aims to blend innovation and practicality, featuring a high-end interior and advanced driving dynamics. It is set to launch in Australia in August 2024.
