The Polestar 6 convertible is shaping up to be one of the most desirable electric sports cars of the decade. Just a week after its global unveiling, all 500 launch edition units were sold out, pushing the automaker to consider expanding production beyond its initial plans.
A Stunning Electric Convertible in High Demand
The Polestar 6 is a sleek, two-door convertible sports car that clearly exceeded expectations in demand. Polestar CEO Thomas Ingenlath hinted that production could go beyond the original 500 units, saying, “We would not stop at 500 if people want it.” This statement reinforces the brand’s flexibility to meet market demand, though it could come at the expense of the model’s exclusivity.
Power and Performance
Set to enter production in 2026, the Polestar 6 convertible combines elegant design with serious performance. Under the hood—figuratively speaking—it packs dual electric motors delivering 872 horsepower (650 kW/884 PS) and 900 Nm of torque. This powertrain enables the car to accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in just 3.2 seconds, with a top speed of 155 mph.

According to Polestar’s head of design, Maximilian Missoni, the Polestar 6 was envisioned as “a daily driver but with high performance.” Initially, the company considered a hardtop but ultimately opted for a folding metal convertible roof, adding a sense of freedom and luxury that sets it apart from most electric cars.
What Makes the Polestar 6 Convertible Special
Two standout features define this EV:
- Massive Power: With 872 hp, the Polestar 6 convertible rivals the performance of top-tier gasoline sports cars.
- Convertible Design: Few electric vehicles offer an open-top experience, giving the Polestar 6 a unique edge in the market.
Final Thoughts
The Polestar 6 convertible isn’t just another luxury EV—it’s a statement of how performance and sustainability can coexist. With production planned for 2026 and overwhelming early demand, this electric roadster is poised to become a collector’s favorite and a milestone in Polestar’s evolution.
