EV Channels Review
This video presents a 75 mph highway range test for the 2022 Polestar 2 Dual Motor AWD under optimal 55-60 degree Fahrenheit conditions. The reviewer achieved a real-world range of approximately 205 miles, falling short of the EPA's 250-mile rating but deemed it "very usable" for typical road trip charging strategies (charging to 60% at 10% state of charge). The reviewer highlights the Polestar 2's efficiency in warmer weather compared to a previous cold-weather test, noting significantly lower energy consumption (around 34.3 kWh/100 miles vs. over 60-70 kWh/100 miles). Positives include good efficiency in ideal conditions, a comfortable ride, and a capable charging profile. A notable drawback is the vehicle's inability to maintain highway speeds below 5% state of charge, requiring more careful planning for range tests and road trips compared to some other EVs. The reviewer also expresses frustration with the reliability and speed of Electrify America chargers.
