Deal of the Day: Save up to £9000 on a new Polestar 2
The Polestar 2 has an upmarket interior and an impressive official range, and is our Deal of the Day for 9 August...
If you want an electric car that’ll officially cover more than 400 miles on a charge, your list of options is rather a short one. In better news, the Polestar 2 – in Long Range form – not only belongs on this list, it’s the most affordable model there.
Sure, its official range of 406 miles isn’t quite a match for that of the Peugeot e-3008 Electric 230 (422 miles) or Volkswagen ID 7 Pro S Match (436 miles), but the former model is still yet to reach showrooms, and the latter will set you back around £7000 more once you factor in the Polestar discounts available through our free New Car Deals service.

And there’s more to the Polestar 2 than just the potential for hassle-free long-distance trips. It offers a great driving position (although some extra side support wouldn’t go amiss), as well as decent visibility, plus standard-fit front and rear parking sensors and a rear-view camera. The Polestar also has a more upmarket interior than the rival Tesla Model 3, with a good mixture of high-quality materials.
The Model 3 – the current class leader – is more practical and sharper to drive, but the Polestar 2 is still a great choice if you value a plush interior and cover enough miles to benefit from its longer maximum official range.
But which version of the Polestar 2 is for you? Here’s a rundown of the different options, and how much you could save on each of them…
Kicking off the line-up is the Polestar 2 Standard Range Single Motor. This version can officially cover 339 miles on a charge and, despite being the entry-level variant, can sprint from 0-60mph in around six seconds.
Then there’s the Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor – that’s the one with the attention-grabbing range figure. It’s a bit more powerful than the standard car, and gets a larger 79kWh battery to help it go the extra mile(s). There’s also an all-wheel-drive version, the Polestar 2 Long Range Dual Motor. The addition of a second electric motor driving the front wheels brings the 0-60mph time down to just 4.3 seconds, but it also reduces the official range to 368 miles.
If none of these sound exciting enough to you, then take a look at the Polestar 2 Long Range Dual Motor Performance Pack. This version produces a whopping 469bhp, meaning a 0-60mph dash takes just four seconds.
You can currently save £1000 on either of the single-motor variants of the Polestar 2, or £5000 on a dual-motor car. However, if you combine either of the dual-motor cars with the Plus Pack, that discount rises to £9000. This adds a panoramic glass roof, a 13-speaker Harman Kardon stereo, heated rear seats, vegan upholstery and a heat pump to the already generous standard equipment.
What’s more, Polestar is offering 0% APR finance across the range, meaning you could save thousands in interest payments over a four-year PCP term.
