Polestar 3 achieves Euro NCAP Best in Class award

Polestar 3 has been awarded Euro NCAP’s Best in Class award for safest Executive 
Car of 2025. This award follows the April 2025 announcement when Polestar 3 
achieved a five-star Euro NCAP rating and 87% score overall in the then latest round 
of safety tests. 
The brand’s flagship SUV impressed with remarkable scores of 90% for adult 
occupant protection, 93% for child occupant protection – at that point the highest 
score of any passenger car tested by Euro NCAP in the past nine years – 79% for 
vulnerable road users, and 83% for safety assist. 
 
At the time, Euro NCAP praised Polestar 3 for setting “a new standard for child 
safety”, with performance “tantalisingly close to a perfect score.” This achievement 
underscores Polestar’s dedication to safety as an integral part of its performance 
ethos. 
 
Gerry Yang, Polestar CTO, says: “Safety is a central part of our DNA thanks to our 
close collaboration with Volvo Cars. Polestar 3 incorporates among the latest 
advanced structural innovations and advanced driver assistance systems, which all 
played a part in delivering the exceptional test results we have seen here.” 
 
Polestar 3 is the third model in the brand’s line-up, together with Polestar 2 and 
Polestar 4, to have undergone testing and received top honours by Euro NCAP.
