POLESTAR 5, BYD ATTO 2, TESLA FSD NEWS AND MORE! | WED 10 SEP 2025

EV Channels Review

The Ludicrous Feed discusses the highly anticipated Polestar 5, noting its striking design and impressive performance figures, including a 3.2-second 0-100 km/h time for the performance variant. However, the high price point, starting at $186,812 and reaching $209,000 for the performance launch edition, is a significant concern, especially with a Spring 2026 delivery estimate. The hosts and guest draw comparisons to the Lotus Eletre and Porsche Taycan, questioning if the Polestar 5 offers enough differentiation and value at its price point, particularly given the rapid advancements in Chinese EV offerings. While acknowledging the car's aesthetic appeal and performance, the consensus suggests it may be priced too high and arrive too late to capture a significant market share, especially when considering potential competitors like the Polestar 4 and XPeng P7.
