Polestar has raised the prices of all three versions of the Polestar 2 in China, blaming the continued sharp rise in the prices of raw materials.

Pre-sales for the Radar RD6 start at RMB 180,000 ($25,240), with the first production vehicles of the model already rolling off the line and deliveries set to begin in the fourth quarter.

All versions of the Polestar 3 will be equipped with a rear-biased dual-motor powertrain, with electric torque vectoring via a dual-clutch system for the rear motor.

Zeekr will also feature Mobileye SuperVision on two new models and work with Mobileye to develop new LiDAR-based features.

The Polestar 6 LA Concept edition is limited to 500 units worldwide, with 10 spots available in China at a suggested retail price of about $240,000.

Geely affiliate Vremt says its 600-kW supercharging technology is now in mass production and ready to be brought to market quickly.

The cost of replacing a battery pack in the Polestar 2 is twice the price of a new car, making the brand a recent talking point in China.

A Polestar 2 owner was told it would cost RMB 540,000 ($79,200) to replace a damaged battery pack, 1.6 times the price of his vehicle.

The Polestar 6 is expected to go on sale in 2026, with reservations in China to open shortly.

The Geometry EX3 becomes the latest model targeting the low-end market to stop taking orders, as the impact of rising raw materials continues.
