The model
Read full reviewThe Polestar 2 has a smart interior and scores highly for safety. Sadly, in many other areas – including range, driving dynamics and speed of charging – it's well behind the class leaders.
The trim
See full equipmentThe engine
See full engine specsThe 78kWh battery and two electric motors together produce 402bhp and 487lb ft of torque. The Model 3 Performance has even more welly, but at 4.7sec from 0-62mph, the Polestar 2 is still mightily quick. As for the crucial matter of range, the 292 miles that the Polestar 2 managed in its WLTP test matches what the more expensive Jaguar I-Pace achieved but not the Model 3 Performance’s official range of 329 miles.
