The glass
What a Polestar windscreen usually carries
Before we quote a Polestar, we work out what is actually in the glass. On current Polestar models that usually means acoustic interlayer, large single-piece screen and rain and light sensor.
Behind the mirror sits a camera cluster mounted behind the glass ahead of the mirror, feeding Pilot Assist. The windscreen has to carry the right bracket and a clear optical zone in front of the lens, and the camera is recalibrated once the new glass is bonded in.
Polestar shares its safety hardware with Volvo, and the screens are large, so access and space matter on site.
Driver assistance
Pilot Assist and why calibration matters
Pilot Assist reads the road through the windscreen, so replacing the glass moves the camera and the system has to be recalibrated rather than merely reconnected.
Polestar calls its driver-assistance package Pilot Assist. The part that concerns us is the camera behind the windscreen. It reads lane markings, the vehicle ahead and, on most systems, pedestrians, and it does that through the glass.
Take the old windscreen out and put a new one in, even a perfect fit, and the camera is no longer looking at the world from exactly the same angle. A few tenths of a degree at the glass becomes metres of error at a hundred metres down the road. That is why Pilot Assist needs recalibrating after a replacement rather than merely being reconnected.
On a Polestar the calibration is more often a static one against targets than a road drive, which means it needs space and a level surface. We say at the quote whether yours does and what it adds, and we arrange it as part of the job.
The rest of the job
How a Polestar replacement runs, and what moves the price
The steps are the same for every vehicle we fit, so they live on the service page rather than being repeated here. The part specific to a Polestar is Pilot Assist: whether your build carries it decides both the glass and whether calibration is part of the job.

Questions
Polestar glass questions
Can you replace a Polestar windscreen at my home or work?
Yes, and that is how we do most Polestar jobs. We bring the glass, the urethane and the tools to the vehicle. We need room to open both front doors and somewhere reasonably sheltered if it is raining.
Does my Polestar need the camera recalibrated after a new windscreen?
Almost certainly, if it carries Pilot Assist. We confirm it from your build when you book and include it in the quote rather than adding it later. See windscreen replacement for how calibration fits into the job.
What decides the price of a Polestar windscreen?
On a Polestar the single biggest step is whether Pilot Assist is fitted, because that adds a calibration to the job as well as narrowing the glass. The build year and grade decide the rest. Our cost guide explains each factor.
Can a chip in a Polestar windscreen be repaired instead?
Often, and on a Polestar it is worth asking early: keeping the original glass means the camera behind it never moves, so there is no calibration to arrange either. See windscreen chip repair.
