MY POLESTAR 2 LONG RANGE DUAL MOTORS REVIEW & DRIVE

EV Channels Review

The reviewer provides an enthusiastic first impression of the 2022 Polestar 2 Long Range Dual Motor. Key highlights include its striking exterior design, particularly the Thor's Hammer headlights and pixel lighting, and a tech-rich interior dominated by large, responsive screens. The reviewer praises the vehicle's potent performance, noting its "instant torque" and "Tesla fast" acceleration, with 408 horsepower and 487 lb-ft of torque enabling a 0-60 mph time of around 4.5 seconds. Real-world range is stated as 249 miles. The handling is described as fantastic, with noticeable and appreciated differences in steering feel across different modes (light, standard, firm). Practical aspects like the power hatch, decent frunk and trunk space (14.3 cubic feet rear, 1.2 cubic feet front), and the convenience of USB ports and rear air are mentioned. Criticisms are minor, including the lack of a moonroof and a somewhat annoying hump in the rear floor, along with a firm rear armrest. The reviewer concludes that the Polestar 2 offers incredible value starting around $50,000, delivering an exciting and thrilling driving experience.
