The Polestar 3 Long Range Single Motor has a 111 kWh battery, the same pack as the other Long Range versions. That is good for a WLTP range of about 650 km. At home this Polestar charges at up to 11 kW of alternating current. An 11 kW charger therefore gets the most out of the car. With a battery this size, charging overnight makes the most sense.

Which EV charger suits the Polestar 3 Long Range Single Motor?
The Polestar 3 Single Motor charges at 11 kW at home, so an 11 kW charger is exactly what you need. Three-phase means the charger spreads its power over the three phases of your home connection. This Polestar uses all three. A faster charger saves you no time, because the on-board charger in the car sets the ceiling.
Look for a built-in MID meter as well. That is a kWh meter certified to the EU Measuring Instruments Directive, built into the charger itself. Because it measures at the charging point, it records your charging separately from the rest of your household. With a battery this large, that quickly tells you what a full charge costs. Our EV chargers with MID meter are available at 11 kW as well as 22 kW.
The 11 kW models differ in build and in metering. It pays to compare our 11 kW EV chargers side by side.
We arrange installation in the Netherlands, Flemish Belgium and Germany. For Germany, that starts with a free quotation. Outside those three countries we ship worldwide, but we do not install. We always recommend having the connection made by a certified electrician, which is safer and matters for your insurance.
How long does the Polestar 3 Long Range Single Motor take to charge?
With the 111 kWh battery and an 11 kW charger, count on about ten hours for a full charge. That is the 107 kWh you can actually use, divided by 11 kW. In practice you rarely charge from empty to full. Plug the car in during the evening and it is well charged by morning. A battery this large also makes a dynamic energy contract attractive, because you charge at the lowest night rate.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Polestar 3 Single Motor need a 22 kW EV charger?
No. The Polestar 3 Long Range Single Motor charges at up to 11 kW at home. A 22 kW charger adds no speed, because the on-board charger in the car sets the ceiling. An 11 kW charger on a three-phase connection is the logical choice.
Why does a MID meter matter for the Polestar 3?
A MID-certified kWh meter records exactly how much electricity you charge at home. It keeps that consumption separate from the rest of your household use. With a battery of 111 kWh, a single charge is a noticeable part of your bill. That insight pays off quickly.
