Spun off from Volvo as a high-performance and all-electric brand, Polestar is still finding its feet. Arguably, we won’t see the true Polestar brand until the all-new Polestar 3 SUV arrives next year, complete with its €100,000 price tag. In the meantime, the 2 is a slight mishmash, mixing Volvo platform and styling with modern EV tech and a slight sense of elegant Scandi style.
The exterior styling hasn’t aged a day since it was launched, and inside the minimalist twin-screen layout mixes with acres of space to create a truly relaxing environment. You can spend big to get a large 77kWh battery and a long range of more than 500km. On the other hand, you can save a bundle, spend €39,995 and get the 58kWh version which can still do an impressive 385km, and which isn’t much more expensive than the significantly smaller Renault Megane E-Tech.
Are you kidding?
