Performance Stories: Braking with Brembo
Braking isn’t where performance ends. It’s where it begins. At Brembo’s R&D facility in northern Italy, we met Matteo Rampazzo to understand how fifty years of motorsport innovation have shaped the braking system in Polestar 4 with Performance pack.
True performance isn’t just about how fast you can go. It’s about how confidently you can stop.
If braking is an art, then Brembo are the maestros. As one of the world’s leading brake manufacturers, Brembo knows what it takes to build state-of-the-art systems.
"Ask any racing driver and they’ll tell you: brake later, accelerate sooner,"
says Matteo Rampazzo, Market Director at Brembo.
Braking, after all, is fundamental to performance. And, yes, that even means speed.
"Mastering the corner means delaying the brake and unleashing the power earlier,"
he adds.
"This is how you maximise your top speed. True performance isn’t just about how fast you can go. It’s about how confidently you can stop.”
A great braking system doesn’t just stop fast. It stops smart.
That confidence is built into every Polestar 4 with Performance Pack. Each car comes with ventilated discs (392 × 34 mm front, 364 × 26 mm rear) and lightweight aluminium four-piston calipers, making Brembo's system ideal for precise, consistent stopping—even at high racing temperatures—while reducing weight, wear, and dust.
"A great braking system doesn’t just stop fast. It stops smart,"
explains Matteo. In an EV like Polestar 4, integrated regenerative braking converts deceleration into energy, helping you go further between charges. In Polestar 4, this equates to well over 500km of range on a single charge (WLTP range of 590 km).
So, the next time you tap the brakes in your Performance pack Polestar, remember that you're tapping into half a century of racing heritage. Engineered to perform at the highest level, the Polestar 4’s Brembo brakes don’t just stop you. They keep you ahead.

- I love my Brembo brakes on my Polestar 2! Unfortunately one of the calipers has got a little chip in the paint (don't know how that happened), but I find it impossible to find the color code for Swedish Gold. Can anyone help with that? 🙏😊
