LIVESTREAM: ROAD TRIP WITH POLESTAR 2 IN SWEDEN!

EV Channels Review

This livestream road trip in Sweden showcases the Polestar 2 Performance with the optional software upgrade, boosting output to 350 kW. The reviewer highlights the car's "spicy" acceleration and the comprehensive Performance Pack, including upgraded wheels, brakes, and Öhlins dampers. While charging at an ABB station, the car achieved a respectable 140 kW, though the reviewer encountered issues with a Tesla Supercharger. The vehicle's range is deemed sufficient for the Gothenburg to Copenhagen journey, estimated at 225 miles at 70 mph. Positives include the car's handling on back roads and its European styling. However, criticisms focus on cabin noise, particularly with the performance pack, and a steering wheel that doesn't extend far enough for taller drivers. A notable issue encountered was temporary power reduction due to overheating, even in moderate temperatures, which was unexpected. Despite these points, the reviewer expresses a strong liking for the Polestar 2's driving dynamics and overall appeal in Europe.
