Should I Consider Purchasing a Spare Polestar 3 Charging Cable?

Given that the Polestar 3 is a 100% electric vehicle, it is highly advisable to carry a spare Polestar 3 EV charging cable. This precautionary measure ensures that you're always prepared in case your EV charger malfunctions or your cable is lost or stolen. Without a functioning charging cable, you won't be able to move your car. While we do provide free next-day delivery in case of emergencies, we strongly recommend purchasing a backup charging cable for peace of mind.

Which EV Cable Should I Choose for My Polestar 3?

The choice of EV cable for your Polestar 3 depends on your charging needs. If you plan to charge your Polestar 3 at home or through a standard EV charging station, we recommend the 32-amp Type 2 to Type 2 Polestar 3 charging cable. This selection aligns with the maximum output from a typical domestic electricity supply, which is 11 kW. However, if you intend to charge your Polestar 3 in public locations, we recommend opting for the 32-amp (3-phase) charging cable. This choice will allow for faster charging, particularly at public charging stations equipped with higher-powered infrastructure. Please note that the 32-amp 3-phase option is versatile enough to handle lower-speed charging as well.
