Swedish electric carmaker Polestar has confirmed Australian pricing for its 2026 Polestar 4 SUV coupé, which will start from an unchanged price $78,500.

Both the Polestar 4 Long range Single motor and Polestar 4 Long range Dual motor variants keep their starting prices of $78,500 and $88,350 respectively, before on road costs.

A handful of minor changes have been made, including new buttons on the steering wheel for the 2026 model-year Polestar 4, replacing the touch-sensitive controls from the 2025 model.

Minor changes have also been made to the option pack structure, while pricing for the Bridge of Weir leather option and Electrochromic glass roof have both been reduced.

However, the illuminated front Polestar logo, high-level interior illumination, and net pockets in the boot have all been moved to the Plus pack.
