Haha, that is a big differet😂

Ahh, already wondered and thought "wow, that's a lot for software" but 1000€ is very much ok!

I heard it the way you meant it but can understand that others might not have.

I thought 4000 was expensive for a software update, thanks for the clarification.

Ahh thank God. I thought you said 4000 and that had me wondering if I should pass on this upgrade. But 1000 is actually cheaper than the tune I installed on my 718 Boxster. So...let's go!

Except the editor is using "that music" that so many vloggers use.

Awesome video .car looks awesome and update ova was cool to see i just wish u would have shared..update time in definitely polar star fan thanks 4 sharing

Horsepower is how hard you hit the wall, and torque is how far you move the wall. 😂

Yep, its an old myth that wont die. I guess because traditions.

Totally understandable!

Not really, but then again, I am not using full power on the road

Chinese car🤣🤣🤣

Technically it’s also possible with ICE, that’s what people have been doing for decades with chip tuning…..

This update doesnt affect the consumption

@@jaakkojokonen9522 keep laughing as they blow right past ya.

Torque is a force, it is not power. You can have exceptionally high torque, with minimal power. Imaging a toddler turning a manual winch with a 100 foot long level. Exceptional torque, still has the power of a toddler.

Who said the opposite?

You. You said torque is power. It is not. A car doesn’t accelerate better because of torque. It accelerates because of power (torque at a rate of work) and gear ratios.

No no, not me

@@Meiliv Yeah, unless you're saying someone hacked your account? That is the parent comment to this thread. "Torque IS power. Both are directly linked. When we say that a car accelerates better because more torque, it's just another way (that is not quite right) to say that it has more power in the low end"

Same here 🤣 I'll bet we are not the only ones 🤣 bbrraaaapppp ppttccssh

It was above 70! :)

Yep

Over 80%

Will do! :)

New editor and camera man :)

It's an old one. They have new ones just launched on their webstore!

Nope

Only dual motor for now

Also only available for cars which are bought and not leased atm

The single motors are 175kW from a single motor, I think the dual motor upgrade is putting the torque and power on each of the dual motors up to that carefully without affecting the battery

Nah, for one part it's how electric motors work and for the other half it's tuned that way. Think of it as the opposite approach how OEM Turbo engines are calibrated: flat torque peak all the way through the mid rpm range and then falling off while power tops out around max rpm.

The torque dropping is a result of it reaching peak power output, either peak motor output, peak battery output or something else.

I wish too!

No, but I could do a lap of the Nürburgring!

0 to 100 in 3 seconds improves security and that’s why I’m looking for it in my next car. But I love my polestar. I drive 210 half of the time so it’s important to take into consideration.

Vehicle

Good question, with EV's is there such a thing as 'power at the flywheel'??

Car & Driver was in the 3's to 60 mph.

Depends on what you care about. Model 3 performance version is still faster with better acceleration. Hell even the long range model 3 is still faster, with better acceleration and an extra 100 miles of range or so. So not quite sure what advantage the extra HP or torque gives you here Also I’m not sure what videos you’ve watched but most have said the model 3 has better responsiveness and handling. I test drove them and thought the same thing. Polestar weighs like half a thousand pounds more than it, not much you can do about that. Where polestar wins is in suspension and damping. It has a much smoother ride. That’s why you get the car, not for it’s faster acceleration or top speed, but for it’s smoothness and ride quality.

@@philorgneopolotin8762 True, just happy to see Polestar catching up in other categories. Range is the biggest disadvantage, but that is to be expected for CMA platform vehicles, and the next generation model should have none of those constraints. (Primarily ICE optimized chassis which makes adding a larger battery frustratingly difficult.) However, the P2 is already winning in terms of looks, interior quality, build quality, arguably technology, and price. Although what I'm really exited for is the Polestar 3.
