Polestar 3 Proves Itself in Harsh Winter Conditions

Polestar, the Swedish electric vehicle manufacturer, has been showcasing its latest model, the Polestar 3, in demanding winter conditions. The SUV was recently put through its paces on a custom-built ice track in Jokkmokk, Sweden, and made its public debut at the FAT International Ice Race in the Austrian Alps.

The Polestar 3 impressed journalists with its engaging driving experience on the ice, even for those new to driving in such conditions. This was partly thanks to the influence of Joakim, a successful rally driver, on the vehicle's performance. The SUV's handling, balance, and mid-engine-like feel were particularly praised.

Under the hood, the Polestar 3 features a unique BorgWarner Binary Vectoring Dual Clutch (TVDC) system. Developed by BorgWarner, a leading provider of drive system technologies, this system enhances the vehicle's traction and cornering precision. Production of the Polestar 3 has begun, and it is expected to hit roads soon.

Polestar, with its Swedish origins and extensive winter testing, offers practical guidance on driving electric vehicles in cold weather. This ensures that drivers can enjoy the Polestar 3's capabilities year-round.

The Polestar 3 has proven its mettle in harsh winter conditions, thanks to its innovative BorgWarner TVDC system and the influence of experienced rally drivers.
