POLESTAR 2 - 70MPH RANGE TEST

EV Channels Review

In this 70 mph range test, the Polestar 2 delivered a real-world result of 232.9 miles, slightly exceeding the reviewer's initial expectations and aligning with his calculations based on efficiency. The reviewer followed InsideEVs' testing methodology precisely, including setting climate control to 70 degrees, fan speed to low, and maintaining manufacturer-recommended tire pressures. A notable observation was the heat from the glass roof, prompting the use of sunshades to maintain comfort without compromising the test. The reviewer experienced reduced power warnings at 9% and 5% battery charge, and the car indicated it might not reach the charging station with 0% remaining. Despite these warnings and a discrepancy in displayed range, the Polestar 2 ultimately reached the charger at exactly 0% after 232.9 miles, a result the reviewer deemed "pretty damn good" and a successful outcome for the test.
