EV Channels Review

The EV Resource Podcast covers the reveal of the Polestar 3, an electric SUV aiming for a 300-mile range and rapid charging. The reviewer notes its aerodynamic design (0.29 drag coefficient) and a 400-volt architecture with a 107 kWh battery. The standard dual-motor setup offers 489 hp and 620 lb-ft torque, achieving 0-60 mph in 4.9 seconds. An optional $6,000 performance package boosts output to 517 hp and 671 lb-ft, dropping the 0-60 time to 4.5 seconds, but reduces range to an estimated 270 miles. The reviewer highlights that Polestar prioritizes a well-rounded driving experience over outright speed. The Polestar 3 launches exclusively in the Long Range Dual Motor trim, starting at $85,300, with deliveries expected in late 2023. The podcast also touches on the GMC Sierra EV Denali tease, the Aptera Gamma Prototype, Arcimoto Deliverator award, Toyota's hybrid focus, a new EV acceleration record, Tesla Semi deliveries to Pepsi, the Honda Prologue, and Virginia's EV charging plans.
