Creep is nice when you're parking in a tight parking spot. It lets you creep very slowly while your foot modulates the brake, ready to stop very quickly to keep from hitting something. Using one pedal driving can be a little trickier. If you press too hard on the accelerator pedal, it takes time to move your foot over to the brake to stop quickly. Or, you have to do left foot braking, which can be awkward for many people.

Great job, Max! I like this style of "get to know your car" kind of video.

Great guide! Renting a polestar and was disoriented. This video helped to get me started!

I liked this review. Very good tone and lots of detailed information. I have one as a rental while my Jeep is being repaired and this is the best review of this car that I've come across.

Before buying a Polestar 2, rent one from Hertz. I was seriously considering the Polestar 2 until I spent a few days driving one. Great looks, great power, and great handling, but there wasn't much else going for the vehicle. I found the seats to be uncomfortable, the ride harsh, the interior noisy (road noise), and visibility was poor. The weekend rental fee was money well-spent.

Love the detail in your video Max! Have had my 23’ PS2 for 4 months now and it’s my absolute favorite car I’ve owned. Definitely love yours in the magnesium color with the performance pack! 😊

thank you very much for this information. very details and easy to understand.

When you said opening the front trunk is a strange procedure, then showed us a completely normal procedure for opening a hood I was laughing so hard I almost spilled my coffee.

Renting one atm and this video is exactly what I was looking for. Super helpful, thank you!

Max, thanks much for this info. I had my ‘23 P2 for seven months now, and I just learned from you how to activate the auto high beam!😂. I find Google maps and navigation outstanding in the car. I do all my charging on L2 AC at home and in town; all long distance travel is done on my ICE X1. Enjoy your new ride!

Keep doing what you’re doing bossman great breakdown & detail .. thank you for just teaching me how to use a Polestar 2 💯💪🏽..

Superb, considerate video. Best of luck man!

Nice video young man.

Thanks! Picked one up today.

Love my polestar 2!

Very useful thanks 😊

Max, thanks for the interesting and informative post. But since you asked for suggestions. What really would be useful, is a full detailed review, on how you're doing your home AC charging. I look forward to seeing it.

Nice color combination!

Think you skipped right over the fog lights/button. Nice ride!

I just had a thought come to mind, if I were to park on an incline (let's say a steep San Francisco street), would the regenerative braking in theory be able to hold my car in the same position as parking, and then regenerate at the same time due to gravity? :D

Your Polestar is beautiful

Eleiko has such good reputation for a reason. Nothing can beat swedish steel

Swedes sure know how to make cars. They use the best high quality swedish steel and don’t cut corners. Can’t wait for the upcoming models

I like your taste in music buddy 😀

Awesome video so helpful for a new polestar owner. I love the way Americans pronounce the word button like they are trying to do a "Dick Van Dijk" impression of a British person. Bo'Oh'O'Wa'er

Im guessing we will see a white polestar badge in the grill soon.:)

Any news on ISO 15118 Plug&Charge for this car? Is your AC charging end time accurate? My XC40 Recharge always estimated an end time based on 48 A draw. Any thoughts on getting a frunk carpet without that silly (and space consuming) divider like the ones in Europe?

Show us how to adjust the suspension!

Can you pay for charging through the car or app like the FordPass app?

We love our Polestar 2, had it for almost a year and it's been great. I really like the Andriod Automotive OS, was one of the big selling points for me, I've always had andriod phones so it's all logical to me. More apps are available all the time, some good some not. You could show that in a video, how to downlaod new apps, they have a radar weather one now that I like and will be good for summer thunderstorm season!

Can you mount your phone in this car?

Can't believe after all these years Polestar still hasn't implemented 360 camera and backup camera on the same screen AT THE SAME TIME. If the cupholder situation wasn't a deal breaker enough, that camera implementation would be. They've had so long to fix this and there's no logic or excuse for not doing it....the entire top half of the screen is just black with sensor indicators, literally nobody would say that's a better use of screen space

Been renting a lot of EV cars recently in anticipation of buying one but I've been alarmed by the downsides of EV overstated range, battery loss over time and poor cold weather performance. It's a shame and I will likely start looking at Hybrid options instead. Thanks for the video though

I could’ve used this before I rented from Hertz last month.

Thank you so much ❤❤❤ I would be renting an EV and I dont. Want a Tesla so this could be an option

Not enough service centre's

I was at 68%,tried to charge to 80 %but stopped at 72% Anyone have this happened to them

😮Still using key fobs? Surely a thing of the past now

TFTC

Hertz gave us a polestar on our trip to France and we spent hours every day either looking for compatible chargers (car software is pretty useless) or charging … I would NEVER EVER accept another polestar again! Horrible experience.

Do not buy one of these cars if you need to do highway driving every day. The range it says on the dash is pure fantasy. Highway driving consumes much more energy than city driving. I drive 200 miles everyday and the Polestar will need to be charged during this period otherwise you are not getting home. Cramped interior, stupid location for the drink holders and a horrible climate control / radio design makes it a miserable experience. There is nothing luxury about this car IMO. It costs $34 or more to charge at the public station so you can drive 200 miles. If you only charge it at home on a regular 110v plug-in / it will take 43 hours to charge. Therefore you will need a upgraded outlet to get an overnight charge accomplished

chinese junk

Polestar? Sounds like a stripper? The Chinese made Polestar, which seems slower, and has less range than the US leader? Doesn't Polestar use that crappy CCS charger system that every manufacturer is leaving? What am I missing?
