Different charging solutions Immediately below, you’ll find various charging-time examples (based on a typical crossover vehicle). It’s worth noting, however, that charging times vary depending on the make and model of a car, and its battery size. Therefore, the following is for guidance purposes only.

Three-pin Power Source

Slow chargers can come in the form of a three-pin (3 kW AC) power source along with the car's own adapter. This method is one of the most convenient ways to charge your car, as you can use the wall sockets at home or at work. You can charge your car during the day or at night; however, it is not recommended to leave the car charging using a three-pin socket for an extended period, as this may lead to accelerated battery deterioration.

There is a slightly faster home-charging option available by installing a 3.6kW wallbox.

Wallbox

Polestar partners with Zaptec chargers, the award-winning home charger. With Wi-Fi connectivity, which offers remote charging monitoring, smart charging, software updates and integration with your smart home, it's the all-in-one tool.

By using the Polestar Energy app, you can set your departure time and level of charge, then plug in your vehicle and enjoy smart charging with cheap, renewable energy.

Public Charging

Don’t waste time or stress on finding an available public charging station when you are on the go. Install the Polestar Charge app to access all Polestar’s charging partners, including lonity, Instavolt and many more across the UK and Europe.

Plug & Charge allows you to initiate and pay for charging just by connecting your Polestar to compatible charging stations. It uses a secure connection between the car and charger for quick and easy authentication and payment, so you don’t need to open an app or swipe a card. Google Maps should have these stations highlighted, but you can also find them in the Polestar Charge app. Currently only available on Polestar 4, Polestar 3 and Polestar 2 model year 2026.
