Polestar 3 gets over-the-air audio update

Polestar 3 owners will have more cause for celebration, as the brand delivers its latest over-the-air (OTA) software update: The Abbey Road Studios Mode, available exclusively for models equipped with the Bowers & Wilkins audio system.

The Abbey Road Studios Mode provides four entirely new sound presets, as well as an additional Producer mode to users of the Bowers & Wilkins audio system in Polestar 3. Each preset draws on the sound of the control rooms and live spaces whilst taking inspiration from the studios' original EMI-era equipment. In addition, the Producer mode allows for even greater personalisation, enabling users to tailor the sound to their personal preference.

The optional Bowers & Wilkins audio system in the Polestar 3 features 25 strategically placed speakers and is complete with a 1,610W power output, 3D surround sound, Dolby Atmos capability, and active road noise cancellation

The four presets in Abbey Road Studios Mode include Intimate, Open, Energised and Expansive, providing the Polestar 3 with an audio experience inspired by the studio's spaces and equipment. Each preset is complimented by a bespoke image from the studio, displayed on the sophisticated 14.5-inch touch screen inside the Polestar 3.

The Abbey Road Studios Mode is part of a wider OTA software update that will include Stolen Vehicle Tracking and Smart Schedule for charging.
