2027 Polestar 4 Wagon coming soon.

Polestar is quietly preparing something new and quite significant. New (horribly grainy) prototype photos emerging from China strongly suggest that a wagon version of the Polestar 4 is nearing production readiness. With an official unveiling expected before the end of the year. While the brand hasn’t confirmed details yet, the visual changes seen in testing leave little doubt about its direction.

The extended roofline and subtly reworked rear proportions clearly point to a larger, more practical cargo area. At the same time, the sleek, coupe-like silhouette remains largely intact, preserving the model’s distinctive design language. There is also a proper rear window, something the sedan does without.

This careful balance suggests Polestar is aiming to enhance everyday usability without diluting the bold styling that helped the Polestar 4 stand out in the crowded EV segment. It’s a thoughtful evolution rather than a radical redesign. And why not…

This could prove to be a very smart move. Wagons continue to perform well across Europe, where buyers still value the blend of performance and practicality. Meanwhile, interest in wagons is gradually returning in other markets, including parts of Asia and even North America. A stylish electric estate positioned above mainstream offerings could give Polestar a distinctive edge in the increasingly. It also aligns well with shifting consumer preferences toward vehicles that offer both design appeal and functional versatility.

The current Polestar 3 will soon be only built in the US. While the cheaper and smaller Polestar 4 is assembled in China or South Korea. I am not sure where the US version comes from, but the new wagon is scheduled to be produced in South Korea. Which coukld be good news for a possible US launch.

While much of the attention has been focused elsewhere, the Polestar 5 has quietly entered production in recent months, with initial deliveries expected to begin this summer.

It may not dominate headlines like some of the more attention-grabbing EV startups, but the Polestar 5 has the potential to become a cornerstone of the lineup. Its understated arrival contrasts sharply with its importance. Unfortunately, it is not currently planned for the U.S. market, which is a missed opportunity. Given the gradual aging of competitors like the Tesla Model S, the Polestar 5 could have offered a compelling new alternative in the premium electric sedan space, especially for buyers seeking something fresh in both design and engineering.
