Drive polestar 2 for three years. Very satisfied. It looks fantastic, during my three years drive so many people stop by and asked for the car. The quality is great. It didn't use leather but the interior still looks premium. I will trade in my polestar 2 this year and buy polestar 4. Can't wait.

like this car and would buy over the TESLA MODEL 3 as it comes from a traditional car company and looks like. a real car not a fish!

Polestars I've seen give off a classy vibe!! And the ones i saw driving the hills of Austin were having a blast!!

These must be US figures. In the EU, the 2024 models LRSM, LRDM, and the performance (350 kW) all have an 82 kWh battery. It also battery charges 205 kW DC.

Wheels are clean.

Congratulations on 1m subs

Polestar is a luxury brand if it’s too expensive buy a crappy Tesla model 3 which is the Corolla of EV. Everyone has one

How do you get 4k front seats that aren’t massaging?!

Love the design

Will u be testing the 2024 BMW X1 M35i ?

Amazing job Sofyan.

The Hertz EV sell-off included Polestars and it has absolutely demolished their value. There’s a BUNCH of ‘21-22 P2 AWD Performance Pack models with

These started out priced at 50k in China, pretty much 1 year later you can find the performance version around 30k brand new.

We've got a 2023 Dual motor and really like it. We actually really like the recycled PET material, it has a nice texture and is very easy to clean. We also got the basic textile seats and prefer that over the weavetech, the textile definitely feels more premium than a basic car cloth seat and the weavetech doesn't breathe well ( we live in Phoenix, it's also why we didn't get the glass roof). The cupholder situation and piano black plastic suck ass though, no way around it. I also am not fond of the plastic that is in place of the wood on more basic trims, it has a nice texture but feels thin and brittle.

Wired connection provides superior audio quality versus bluetooth, if enjoying music is important

20:24 The single and dual motor models are the same price right now.

$70k holy smokes

Excellent review! Wish Polestar were more successful. It check all the boxes except the price. Great numbers and absolutely stunning looking vehicles.

I actually just test drove a single motor Polestar since our XC60 is coming off lease. I also have an Audi Q5 and previously had an A4 in the current generation. This review does a very good job overall but I think misses a couple of things. First the good: - Even the single motor is fun to drive and sporty. It may not be as fast as the one tested here but it was plenty fast. - The ride is definitely firm and on the sporty side. Even more so than my old A4 and way more than the XC60, which is much softer. Like he pointed out, the car does have a heavier feel, especially the steering. Regenerative braking is strong. Overall, I liked the way it drove, but if you are looking for something more plush than sporty, this is not it. - I like the styling and like the hatch. The glass roof is cool, but I don't know how it feels in the summer. The less good: - I'm 6'2" with broad shoulders and large feet. The interior is definitely tight. I could fit reasonably well in the front, but the fromt of the center console does intrude on knee room if you are taller. I also had to be careful getting out because it was easy to hit my head. The back seat is probably ok for kids but I couldn't fit at all. It is really cramped. - The ergonomics of the center console are a mess. The cupholders are a pain and the location of the shifter and emergency blinker button relative to the infotainment screen was annoying. I accidentally hit both of them trying to reach the screen. Also, I LOVE Audi's adjustable center armrest (you can adjust height and length) and really wish this car had it. - Like he said, the dash and infotainment are a real improvement over the old Volvo Sensus system on our XC60. The infotainment graphics are also slicker than my Audi's. However, the usability still isn't great. You still have to hunt around for different functions and I only barely scratched the surface on the test drive. I guess you would get used to it, but honestly, Audi's system is much easier to use. Also, the 360 camera really is not as sharp as either Audi's or Volvo's and it's annoying that you can't pair it with the rearview camera like you can with Audi and others. The Audi virtual cockpit dash also more functional than this, but Polestar is an improvement over Volvo. Overall, I liked the way the car drove and the overall design, but I'm not sure how great it is as a daily driver. They really need to get the packaging and usability to match the driving experience.

This is nice! I still think I'd choose the refreshed Tesla Model 3 over this one though....

Still crazy to me that this doesn't give you backup cam and 360 cam at the same time, and still has only 1 usable cupholder without losing the armrest. I canceled my order of the launch edition of this car years ago when I found out it was missing those 2 features and it's still the same

I love it, but would not by an EV with less than 350 miles of range.

That’s way too pricey. I got a MY LR awd for $39750 out the door. 48990-7350(inventory disc) -7500 (fed rebate). Thanks for the Video Sofyan, rocking it as usual.

$70k is nuts. The tech looks dated, range is terrible and who knows about reliability. Depreciation is another question.

Might as well get a Lucid Air Pure

I have a MY23 dual motor with the pilot and plus package in midnight. Honestly I hope US sales really get the justice they deserve for this car. I love my polestar so much and no complaints at all. Would buy over a Tesla any day!

❤@This stuff 👍🏼

3:42 M I D N I G H T!!! That’s a nice intimate shade of blue with hints of gray it fits the car perfectly well 12:27 My BUTT!!!

$70k and you have to drive with the armrest lid open if your passenger wants a drink from McDonald's... 🤦🏾‍♂️

What’s up with the audio quality lately?

Wait that range doesn’t sound any better than the last gen

Next one for me !

Great review, would be interesting to see how it compares to the new Model 3. Hope you can get one for review soon!

The fact that you have to open the center console to get to the second cupholder is a deal breaker for me.

I ❤ the Polstar 2 😍

Performance option aside, the heat pump and ventilated seats are over $6,000 on top of $48K starting price.

Maybe in the future I'll get a used one. Price should be a good bit better.

I live 70 miles away from my Polestar dealer and I had one issue in 3 years. It really wasn't a problem with the car, it was a 2 year maintenance check.They sent a Polestar truck to pick up my car and drop off the loaner. Two days later the same truck bought my car back to my house and took the loaner away. The only reason it took two days is I loved driving the newest model with ventilated leather seats and I wanted to keep it an extra day. The driver even parked my car in my driveway. BTW, the loaner was the exact car in this video, same color and interior. I have no complaints. In three years I have never had to drive to Polestar for any service. How many people can say that they haven't been to a service center in three years?

Drinking game: take a shot every time Sofyan says "cheap" in a review. Kudos to those who are still able to stand by the end of the review.

70K?! U can get a used one for like 27K rn

🔥🔥🔥

Way better looking than a Tesla. $70k no, $55k yes.

Rear 3 quarter gives me dodge avenger

If I had the money, I think the RWD is good enough for me and my family. I like this car

Ain't it their only model on sale?

This car is gorgeous but I need all the seats to be heated and cooled and about 150 more miles of range

The cup holders are unforgivable.

You should correct this video - it is not true that the standard suspension has a softer ride than the performance pack. Simply because you have no idea what the car is currently adjusted to - factory settings cannot be trusted! Adjusting the Ohlins all the way to soft will produce a softer ride than standard.

🙏

uh huh huh huh, Pole

Thank you Sofyan another awesome review. I know that you have your fair share of experience with android automotive infotainment system, but it is awful. I have an android, and it does not have android auto. You can connect your account, but it’s not the same as having android auto. The graphics are great, but because there’s no start button or accessory button as soon as you take, one butt cheek off, the driver seat, the entertainment system shuts off and transfers to your phone. The visibility is terrible. In this car, it’s extremely cramped and you can’t see out of the back very well, the Center tunnel intrudes so much that you’re always hitting your knee on it. I think it’s a beautiful car, the pro pilot assist works really well, the car is very quiet and well composed over bumps, but I would never ever buy one again. I had my 2023 for a year and traded it in.

First !!!

I drove one the other day at an auto show and I was impressed. Wouldn’t get it over a Tesla though. But those yellow seat belts 🤤

It kind of looks like a Dodge Avenger to me 🤣

Maybe soon, I buy this new 2024 Polestar 2.

Who exactly labeled Tesla "premium" ? 😅 Honda & Toyota have better fit and finish than Tesla.

Volvo pulled all funding so........

The sound is muffled

Polestar is about to declare B K - - -

Nice car except for the interior and to expensive

CPOs are 35-40k, if you’re buying entry level luxury new - you’re doing it wrong.

Ev manufacturers are regressing in range numbers. Also they're in desperate need to stop smoking whatever they it is making them think they can ask for that much money for cars like these

Of all the choices available in the marketplace...why the hell would one buy this vehicle. It has bad reviews for reliability, limited range and a dealer network comparable to Lucid.

It's a shame this company will likely be no more in a few years due to Volvo pulling out

The interior looks awful. Colors look drab. The vent location is odd. Is that screen a tablet? Exteriors 3 box shape neever grew on me.

Volvo recently pulled out of Polestar. Why?? What do they know about everything thatvthe rest of us don't? I'll pass on this.

Coming from a dead Performance Model 3, this car was tempting and you see them around here a lot but it's just too boring looking. I hate the complete lack of style and the vents and stuff just look so Camry I'm out

No wonder Polestar is losing so much money and Volvo had to pull out of its stake in Polestar! They price it poorly!

Based on Volvo architecture but parent company is BYD in China.

Is Polestar made in China? The Polestar 2. Polestar is an automaker headquartered in Sweden and controlled by Chinese billionaire Li Shufu. It designs the Polestar 2 in Sweden and manufactures it at a factory in Luqiao, China, for export to the United States, Europe and other markets, where the car sells for between $50,000 and $70,000.

240 range? My ioniq 6 limited gets 340 real range 😂😂😂😂 and looks way better

10:15 That’s China’s influence for you.

The tech looks so terrible

The new Tesla Model 3 redesign is a superior car to the Polestar 2 in mostly every way at a fraction of the cost. Better tech, range, interior room, interior quality. You have to be dumb to buy this at $70k when you can get a new Model 3 for $46k or even a used Polestar 2 for $25k

10:00 Ewww!!! The key fob looks like garbage cuz it’s all cheap looking Idk why Volvo did away with having nicer key fobs covered in leather!!!! Get your heads outta your butts and make these fobs nicer again

Looks cheap to me. I have a hard time believing this isn't $25k. $70k is crazy!

The Center stack is designed horribly

$70k 😂😂😂no wonder their headed towards a lucid fisker bankruptcy 😂😂❤

70k is too much for a China 🇨🇳 sourced Geely. Volvo has just sold all of its holdings in Polestar to Geely according to Reuters.

No. No, ma’am.

The Polestar will be crushed by Teslas tech and pricing.

Loook athe car not at minors mining materials needed to constructing EV vehicles. I like the name and the fact it's Saab

Swedish? Do you mean chinese ?
