Polestar Targets Steady 2026 in Australia After 38% Sales Jump as MY26 Polestar 2 Reaches Showrooms

Overview

• Polestar Australia delivered 2,373 vehicles in 2025 for about 38–38.5% growth, contributing to a 36% rise in global sales.
• Managing director Scott Maynard says 2026 should see steady quarter-on-quarter gains rather than another 30%+ leap.
• The 2026 Polestar 2 is on sale with a faster infotainment processor, a slightly larger base battery, updated wheels and trims, and an optional 14-speaker Bowers & Wilkins system.
• Maynard expects the Polestar 4 to lead volumes in 2026; in 2025 the 4 sold 1,295 units versus 746 for the 2 and 332 for the 3.
• Polestar plans a couple of new Australian retail sites in 2026 and characterises Geely’s funding as investment for operations and R&D following the closure of a UK R&D facility tied to the Polestar 5.
