Level control* and shock absorption

Level control and shock absorption are regulated automatically in the car.

Shock absorption (Four-C)

On a car equipped with Four-C the shock absorption is adapted according to the drive mode selected and the speed of the car. Shock absorption is normally set for optimum comfort and is regulated continuously depending on the road surface, the car's acceleration, braking and cornering.

Manually adjustable shock absorbers*

Polestar Engineered* variant cars have the option to adjust the dampers manually. There are three recommended positions: performance position, engineered and comfort position.

Performance position

The performance position means that the car's damping feels harder.

Engineered, factory setting

Engineered is adapted for daily driving.

Comfort position

Comfort position means that the car's damping feels softer.

Symbols and messages
