- Top Gear names Polestar 3 Best EV SUV
- Awarded Luxury Car of the Year by Chasing Cars in Australia
- 5-star safety rating by Euro NCAP, setting the standard for child safety
Polestar 3 continues to gain independent global acclaim, most recently being named Best EV SUV by BBC’s Top Gear and Luxury Car of the Year by Chasing Cars. These two awards follow the recent 5-star safety rating by Euro NCAP where the full-size SUV set new standards for child safety.
With its award-winning design, advanced EV technology, luxury features, sustainable materials, and its deep-rooted performance DNA, Polestar 3 has consistently received plaudits from media since launch in 2024.
Earlier this month in Top Gear’s 2025 Electric Awards, where the editorial team select the best EVs in the world, the magazine named Polestar 3 the Best EV SUV, praising it for its technology, cutting edge solutions, beautiful design, driving dynamics, and usability.
And this week Polestar 3 adds to its trophy cabinet with Australian title Chasing Cars crowning the full-size SUV their 2025 Luxury Car of the Year. Chasing Cars judges said: “Put simply, the Polestar 3 is a good electric vehicle, but a fantastic luxury vehicle. It is one of the best performance SUVs on the market – full stop – and easily one of the finest new car releases of 2025.”
Michael Lohscheller, Polestar CEO, says: “The acclaim for Polestar 3 just keeps coming, from media and customers, underscoring just how fantastic our performance SUV really is. From design, technology, performance, safety, and sustainability, Polestar 3 continues to set new standards in the segment and these latest awards reinforce that.”
In April 2025 Polestar 3 was awarded a 5-star safety rating by Euro NCAP, where it set new standards for child safety. The brand’s flagship SUV achieved a 93% score in the child protection category – the highest score of any passenger car tested by Euro NCAP over the past nine years – and an adult occupant score of 90%, vulnerable road users 79%, and safety assist systems 83%.
