I BOUGHT A POLESTAR 2 AND IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT ON A 4,000 MILE ROAD TRIP!

EV Channels Review

The reviewer documents the initial leg of a 4,000-mile road trip in a new 2022 Polestar 2 Dual Motor, driving from Denver to San Diego. The "Snow White" dual-motor model, a base variant without optional packages, is highlighted. The reviewer praises the Polestar 2's solid build quality, quiet interior, and impressive Google Maps integration for charging stops, which proved superior to previous experiences with other EVs. The charging curve is noted as improved over earlier models, with consistent speeds even at higher states of charge. The reviewer also appreciates the detailed information displayed on the instrument cluster and the convenient hands-free trunk opening. While the car performed excellently, the reviewer encountered some charging station issues, including non-working chargers and slow speeds, particularly in extreme heat and at busy Electrify America locations. Despite these minor inconveniences, the overall impression of the Polestar 2's road trip capability and user experience is highly positive.
