Charging speeds have also been increased, with up to 205kW now for Long Range batteries, and up to 135kW for Standard Range.
Exterior styling changes include a new front end with Polestar's 'SmartZone' incorporating active safety features.
New items of standard equipment include a blind spot information system with steering support, rear collision warning and mitigation, a 360-degree camera, auto-dimming exterior mirrors, and a wireless phone charger.
