The world of electric vehicles is diverse and exciting, offering surprises even for those who think they have seen it all. Polestar 2, which has arrived in Estonia, is one of those surprises, designed to compete in the premium segment dominated by well-known brands. But how does such an elegantly designed and technically capable vehicle claim its place in the electric car market?
Polestar, a joint venture between Volvo Car Group and Zhejiang Geely Holding, is focused on the production of high-tech electric vehicles. Polestar 2 is their star performer, which will debut in 2020. The compact hatchback is characterised by a robust design and intuitive technology, targeting consumers looking for eco-friendliness without compromising on style and driving comfort.
From the outside, the car's sharp lines and the distinctive design of the semi-enclosed front wheel give it a unique and recognisable look. The spacious cabin, on the other hand, is finished with high-quality materials and is equipped with a modern and user-friendly infotainment system that runs on the Google operating system.
At the heart of the Polestar 2 is a 78 kWh battery pack that allows up to 470 kilometres of driving range on a single charge, following the WLTP cycle. This is an impressive figure that puts the vehicle in a favourable position compared to other players on the market. In addition, the Polestar 2 Twin is a four-wheel drive with Twin engine configuration, which gives the car powerful acceleration - 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.7 seconds.
But don't think Polestar 2 is just for speed lovers. On the contrary, this car is also designed for everyday driving, offering the driver and passengers the maximum comfort and quiet driving experience so characteristic of electric cars.
In short, Polestar 2 is not only a step forward in the world of electric mobility, but also a true showcase of style, combining design, technical innovation and environmental friendliness. It's a great alternative for those who want more from their vehicle than just a means of transport. Polestar 2 is proof that the electric future is elegantly powerful and strikingly stylish.
