Polestar has confirmed Australian pricing and specifications for the Polestar 2 Model Year 2027 (MY27), with customer deliveries expected to begin mid 2026. The update focuses on simplifying the range, increasing standard equipment, and maintaining existing price points despite added value.
Line-up revised, standard range variant axed
In response to growing demand for longer-range electric vehicles, Polestar has removed the Standard range Single motor variant from the Australian line-up.
The MY27 range now consists exclusively of long-range configurations:
- Long range Single motor
- Long range Dual motor
- Long range Dual motor with Performance pack
This shift aligns with broader EV buyer trends in Australia, where range and usability remain top priorities.
Pricing unchanged despite added features
Polestar has kept pricing steady across the MY27 range, even as it adds more standard equipment to higher-spec variants.
