Polestar 5 review roundup: fast, handsome, and a Taycan alternative with one flaw at the back

The Polestar 5's UK road tests landed on 6 October 2026. Carwow's timing gear backed up Polestar's 3.1-second 0-60 mph claim, Autocar weighed it at 2,500 kg, and almost every reviewer criticised the touchscreen-only controls. Our take: it looks aggressive and long, the cabin and the 4+1 seating are good, and the tail lights let it down.
