There are moments when a car doesn’t just arrive,  it announces itself. This week that moment belongs to the Polestar 5. The four-door electric performance Grand Tourer is now available for a static preview from 24th–26th February, ahead of its official Irish launch this Summer. Born from bold ambition and shaped by Scandinavian precision, the Polestar 5 is the flagship expression of everything the Swedish EV brand stands for. From Concept to Reality: The Vision Realised Back in 2020, Polestar unveiled the Precept concept a manifesto of future design, sustainability and cutting-edge technology. The Polestar 5 is that manifesto brought to life. Low, wide and unmistakably modern, it blends the sleek silhouette of a coupé with the practicality of a four-door GT. Its bonded aluminium body sits on the bespoke Polestar Performance Architecture, delivering lightweight rigidity and razor-sharp dynamics.

Engineering Meets Elegance Look closer and the details reveal the depth of engineering: 4-piston Brembo brakes (Swedish gold finish on Performance edition) SmartZone™ advanced driver assistance system 11 exterior cameras Driver monitoring camera Mid-range radar 12 ultrasonic sensors It’s technology seamlessly integrated rather than overtly displayed very much in keeping with Polestar’s minimalist Scandinavian ethos. Inside, the cabin mirrors that philosophy. Clean lines, sustainable materials, and a driver-focused cockpit create a space that feels progressive yet luxurious. It’s less about excess and more about intention. Completing the Irish Line-Up The Polestar 5 now crowns a growing Irish range that includes: Polestar 2 – from €39,900 Polestar 4 – from €56,490 Polestar 3 – from €73,590 Polestar 5 – from €130,700 With the addition of the 5, Polestar now offers a complete electric spectrum — from accessible premium EV to flagship performance Grand Tourer. Why the Polestar 5 Matters for Ireland Buyers are no longer asking if electric can replace combustion  they’re asking how far it can go. With up to 678km of range, supercar-rivalling acceleration and 350kW charging capability, the Polestar 5 answers that question.
