The expected lifespan of the Polestar 3’s components varies depending on several factors, including usage and maintenance. Generally, the battery pack is designed to last for about eight to ten years, after which it may need replacement or refurbishment, although it is covered by an eight-year warranty.
The electric powertrain, with fewer moving parts compared to traditional vehicles, requires less frequent servicing, which can extend its lifespan significantly. Additionally, Polestar offers free scheduled maintenance for the first three years, which helps maintain the vehicle’s condition over time.
In terms of sustainability, over 85% of the Polestar 3 is recyclable, allowing for components to be reused or remanufactured at the end of their life cycle, which can further extend the lifespan of certain parts.
Overall, while the lifespan of individual components may vary, the Polestar 3 is designed to be durable and environmentally friendly, with a focus on reducing waste and extending component life through recycling and remanufacturing.
