Polestar 4 Review 2026: Range, Price and Salary Sacrifice Cost
Illustration generated for THRIVE

At 4% benefit-in-kind for 2026/27, the Polestar 4 lands squarely in the sweet spot that's making salary sacrifice schemes so hard to argue against right now, per The Electric Car Scheme. The Long Range Single Motor's 385-mile WLTP figure from £53,750 gives drivers Model Y-rivalling range without the compromise, and salary sacrifice takes 20-50% off a personal lease depending on tax band. For fleets still weighing SUV-coupé novelty against practicality, the tax maths alone should get this onto the shortlist — the low BIK does most of the persuading before range or charging speed even enter the conversation.
