Polestar have priced their cheapest long range 2 just inside our subsidy limit in NZ while the IONIQ 5 equivalent is $10,000 more expensive. So the Polestar ends up being $18,000 cheaper. No brainer if you're choosing a non-Tesla.
The Long Range is $86,000 now because they don't offer it without Pilot. Whoever made that decision at Polestar NZ is an absolute potato. To be fair Pilot should be in the price, and not another $6k. The only useful thing anyone will ever really use is adaptive cruise, blind-spot monitoring and the parking cameras.
@@paulg2923 isn't that true. It really is true that those who own one (assume previous response is from a Tesla owner/fanboy) think it is the only vehicle one should buy. Don't quite understand, if they know it is or feel it is the most efficient why even tune in, there is no need

I’m taking delivery of my Polestar 2 SR next week. Super pumped for it. I ordered the basic one. No option packages; not worth the money to me. The Tesla Model 3 SR was also very high up my wish list, but is nearly €6.000 more expensive in the Netherlands. My current car is a 2017 mk7.5 VW eGolf. The short range of this car really never bothered me. I drive roughly 40.000 km a year, and that with a 36 kWh battery. Always could manage my trips quite well! It’s just mindset.
No tow hook? Since tesla got rid of that option on the model 3 making it a model y only option I'm holding the polestar higher up, mostly since I have kids so I won't need the supercharger network.
Fully agree with you about the option packages! I drive the SR since two weeks and it's fantastic. Range is indeed not an issue if you plan ahead. And in the worst case scenario you have to use a rapid charger for 20 minutes while watching videos on the center console 😁
Great to hear! I am very curious about the car. And like you say, using a rapid charger every once in a while is no issue at all. Also, I can charge at home on my driveway and at my offices. 95% of the time I don’t even charge anywhere else.
@@johanhalvarsson2148For me the tow hook was essential as well when selecting an EV. Not many EV's out there that allow a tow hook and a decent towing weight. In a few months I'll have it installed on my PS2.
It’s pretty decent that the P2 can tow 1.500 kg. My wife drives a 2016 Golf GTE, which we equipped with a tow hook. So it wasn’t necessary for us to also equip the P2 with one.
Will buy a new car in june 2022 and this might be it. I’m also looking at the Renault Megane e-tech, also with Google Automotive and a front wheel drive (price unknown yet)
30+ years ago I used to work in Southwark Street, London! Trams used to run there until 1952 but in the '80s the only EV to be seen would be a milk delivery truck.
@@blitzwing1 Some of us can remember when it was horses which would mosey up the street without a command from the milkman. Early example of autonomous vehicles!
Remember that the reason it uses more energy for the last 5-10 minutes before arriving at the charger is because it's heating up the battery - that's why you suddenly dropped several percent at the end of each stage...
I think "Q8" is a kind of pseudo-acronym for "Kuwait" in English (based on the pronunciation). "Q8" in Norwegian or Swedish makes no sense, but you know this for sure. Otherwise I like the car and as always you make great and informative videos.
Reservations opened in Australia for Polestar 2. Very little else available to order here, so I put my deposit on a dual motor. I used to be keen on the fat etron but I can get 2 P2 dual motor cars for the price of one 55 fat etron in Aus. After 20 years of buying Audis, I’m done with them for now.
@@Shaolinof36thChamber Yes, this car is just amazing. Couple of porblems: the app was very unstable at first and we had trouble adjusting the charge limit, but the app got updtated and works fine now and the charging problem fixed itself after a week…
Since a few weeks I drive the exact same version and color. Very happy with it and the Google system works very well. The speech recognition seems to work better in Dutch than demonstrated in this video. I'm also wondering why consumption is above 25 kWh/100 km. My average is at 19 with mostly highway driving at 100 km/h with more or less the same temperature (8 degrees Celsius). Anyway, nice video and very nice music! 🎵
I believe it’s cause your country is pretty flat, whereas Norway goes up and down a lot during a short 30 km trip. My way from Oslo to Jessheim (where Bjorn is moving) involves lower consumption on the way to Oslo than my commute from.
My goodness, you must have great faith in chargers being available and working to run down to 1%. If you had done that in the U.K. you would have found that either the ‘one and only charger’ at a motorway service station (Tibshelf) is either in use, broken (Trowell)or blocked by a fossil fuel vehicle, these are not on some back road, these are on the main motorway from the North of England to London.
@@blitzwing1 Nottinghamshire!!! I'll have you know, I'm from that there Yorkshire. (Near York). Lol. Best wishes to you and everyone close to your heart. Keep safe, keep warm.
So yes an Ev-user(?) i can agree that the projected range is often waaay to optimistic. Also the dip in range between summer & winter is huuuuuge. But you do read between the lines. So now I divide the estimated range by 1.5 in summer & 2 in winter. Once I adopted that mindset, it’s ok but many new adopters will feel a bit cheated? The estimated range needs to be standardized/realisticlized? Because it’s offsetting.
Thanks for an interesting video. I have been thinking of Polestar 2 as an option. Here in Finland where I am from we drive from Pirkanmaa (south) to Rovaniemi a few times a year which is around 800km trip and including all the breaks the driver and others need plus the fact that you will be driving 90km/h behind the lorries a lot I will not drive even 800km under 12 hours by petrol car in practice. This means that from that point of view the question between petrol and electric cars (and their batteries as long as they are 60+ kwh based on this video) is rather pointless from the practical point of view for me unless one considers keeping the car for quite a time and want to make sure there is still range left when you finally sell the car. But this is another story. This video pointed out that 60+ batteries will do besides the more expensive options. Thank you for your videos. Will keep watching!
I didn`t hear anything about heatpump? Did that car have heatpump? Would love to see a test with LR single motor with heatpump. Otherwise I agree, great comfort but some roadnoise and amazing lights. ABRP is installed as default in newer cars and has a lot better predictions on SOC at arrival.
good content is it possible to include the total price of everything you have charged on the trip? because that is a huge difference model 3 with 185wh / km 3.1DKK per kwh on supercharger 1000km = 573.5DKK + charging loss and this polestar with 264wh / km ionity price 6.2DKK 1000km = 1636.8DKK + charging loss Diff 1471nok that's a lot of money
1600nok is 150 euro's... is the charging really that expensive?? For only 1000km??? It would cost me only 80 or so euro's in fuel to do it in my cheap fossil car... what's the point of going electric then 😂😂
I think that the Google state of charge prediction does not calculate the kWh needed to pre-heat the battery. This might explain why you arrived at 1%.
@@benbaselet2026 I think the answer is in the following message, "You are low, can I find you a charging station" all the while being plugged in. In other word, poorly written software. But the root cause is also what 1st came to mind. The car failed to account for battery conditioning power loss.
Just waiting for the configurator to reopen and place my order for this model. Don’t need longer range but will spec pilot and plus packs. Anyone know if the leather seats are softer as comfort is most important to us?

Bra tester och frän bil. Men är det bara jag som tycker det liknar segelflyg när man ska ut och köra långt? Jag menar att de får söka termik/uppvindar vid berg för att ta sig till destinationen. Annars får man nödlanda i en åker. Jag gillar elbilar men det känns som man måste vara väldigt insatt i tekniken. Detta skrivet på svenska förstås.
Är lite som när man norrlandskör idag, ibland får man stanna på den dyrare macken och är man klok tänker man på hur mycket soppa man har i tanken. Vintertid drar det mer (speciellt på dubbat).

Men den bästa termiken hittar man lika ofta på platt mark som i bergen ^^
thanks again - unbelievable, how good Tesla is, if you see all these Software issues here (range estimation, low SOC alert while charging) - what is so difficult to just test this sh* before releasing it???
It’s a shame the polestar is a great car but it’s still limited my it’s buggy google auto software , maybe they should do a Ui skin themselves with better accuracy on distance travel chargers percentage remaining
I see that Polestar 2 Standard Range has 69 kWh battery capacity in Sweden but 65 kWh in all other countries. Number of modules are 24 in all countries, however, when compared to the 27 modules in Long Range variants seems to indicate that 69 kWh is correct. Do anyone here know why battery capacity (+ range and horsepower) is different in Sweden?
It isn't. The battery was upgraded to 69 kWh everywhere. Perhaps hadn't been updated on some websites. There may still be the odd 64 kWh car available as "pre-configured" cars. But any PS2 you order now in Europe will be a 69 kWh.
It's thunder as already said. Magnesium is almost white (snow). If you don't see the Snow color beside it's sometimes hard to tell but in some lights it looks amazing.
Lett Polestar. Kjørt P2 i en uke, himmel og havs forskjell. Polestar er mer gjennomført, XPENG er en ikke så billig Tesla kopi. XPENG er stygg, Polestar snur jeg meg etter hver gang til tross for at jeg til daglig kjører Model S 2019. Til slutt: Mulighet for varmepumpe på Polestar, bedre interface.
Dammit Bjorn every time you say Hey Google you trigger my google home. It’s having a very hard time finding a route from USA. Edit: I see I’m like the hundredth person to say the same thing, sorry
I would prefer the EV6 rear wheel model with 74kWh batterie, instead of the PS2. Better charging speed, more range and V2load for the same money. 11h15min ?! No. Not every driver has this Ninja charging stop with 1% or 2% SOC. You should add minimum 30minutes for normal holiday drivers.
Wouldn‘t an inaccuracy of the car‘s odometer skew some of the time measurements of the 1000km challenge? Maybe a calibration run on a 10km stretch of road could be done?
@@bjornnyland I thought you must :) By the way did you know that Polestar have just rolled out a 1000 EUR power update for the Polestar 2 LR DM, giving you an extra 50kW and up to 700Nm of torque?
Oof 264 Wh/km aka 425 Wh/mile? Why’s the efficiency *so* low? Even just the basic standard range gets way lower efficiency and range than it claims. I know most EV’s are a bit under their advertised range but this seems unusually low. I like the car but they have to either improve their battery size, or fix their advertised range/efficiency if its real world specs are this far off the advertised ones.
@@sowiwo2019 It's a sister car to the XC40, designed by Volvo. It was built to be a hybrid car. Contrary to what's reported in the media, it wasn't built to go head to head with pure EVs like the Model 3. It actually was used to give Polestar an affordable car since Volvo didn't use the body as an S40. But the Precept will be aeordynamic as are the Polestar 3 and such. Those interested in Polestar just have to wait for them to come out. Those will be pure EVs. Late next year is when they are said to come out.
I set language to English. Didn't you notice that the Google voice was in English as well? When you set it to Norwegian, the voice will be in Norwegian.
Seeing that this isn't a dedicated EV platform and so heavy, it does well. The Polestar 3 should be much improved as it will be an all-EV platform. No more cramped cabin and it'll have upgraded voltage.
I'd love to see a worst case scenario 1000 km challenge. You know, rain, wind, snow, whatever... To see how bad it could be compared to a benchmarked car. BTW Bjorn, please don't mess up with Google assistant... You piss off lots of viewers 🤣
I watched a lot of different EV videos and every time I think that tesla user interface is more developed in comparison. In Canada AWD Polestar 2 (no addons) vs LR Model 3 (no addons) is almost same price. Polestar 2 is a pretty car though, I have seen it in person, but never driven.
For my area in Canada (the prairies in the mid/north area) the polestar just doesn't have the range and the charger support just doesn't cut it. It's tough enough in my long range model 3. Other then that the polestar seems like a nice car though. I could see people in Toronto/Quebec/Vancouver and what not doing just fine with their more developed charging network though
Polestar 2 feels much more solid, IMO. Model 3 is very lively and is a true EV design. Polestar feels like a very sporty modern hybrid Volvo that's all-electric.
Hi Bjørn! I’m kindly asking, can you please start to edit out the “hey Google” part from your videos? A lot of your viewers has Google home speakers at home and it’s extremely annoying when they all suddenly activates and starts listening. It was funny the first time, but not after that.

thanks again - unbelievable, how good Tesla is, if you see all these Software issues here (range estimation, low SOC alert while charging) - what is so difficult to just test this sh* before releasing it???
116 kw charing its max for standard range singelmotor, and the gps calculate % left based on legal speed,
Poor man doesn’t buy a Polestar..
Poor man doesn't buy an electric car... or no car what so ever
It’s a shame the polestar is a great car but it’s still limited my it’s buggy google auto software , maybe they should do a Ui skin themselves with better accuracy on distance travel chargers percentage remaining
So what would you say the real world range is for this version of the polestar 2?
Noisy road? Did you use winter or summer tires on P2?
Winter tires.
I see that Polestar 2 Standard Range has 69 kWh battery capacity in Sweden but 65 kWh in all other countries. Number of modules are 24 in all countries, however, when compared to the 27 modules in Long Range variants seems to indicate that 69 kWh is correct. Do anyone here know why battery capacity (+ range and horsepower) is different in Sweden?
It isn't. The battery was upgraded to 69 kWh everywhere. Perhaps hadn't been updated on some websites. There may still be the odd 64 kWh car available as "pre-configured" cars. But any PS2 you order now in Europe will be a 69 kWh.
What is the name of the color? Does anybody know? Magnesium or Thunder?
Its Thunder
It's thunder as already said. Magnesium is almost white (snow). If you don't see the Snow color beside it's sometimes hard to tell but in some lights it looks amazing.
spørsmål ---- hvis du skulle velge en favoritt mellom XPENG og POLESTAR (single 420 km.r) hva ville det vært og hvorfor?
Lett Polestar. Kjørt P2 i en uke, himmel og havs forskjell. Polestar er mer gjennomført, XPENG er en ikke så billig Tesla kopi. XPENG er stygg, Polestar snur jeg meg etter hver gang til tross for at jeg til daglig kjører Model S 2019. Til slutt: Mulighet for varmepumpe på Polestar, bedre interface.
stop triggering MY google assistant 😂
I hope polestar will make a big wagon version
Suv Will be first probably
If I buy an electric car, I think I'll choose Polstar. I don't want to buy electric cars from traditional automakers. Maybe it's because of emblem :)
Looking forward to the EQS
Shame it's an ugly lump of a thing.
Coldstar 2

ABB songs like LPG "charger"
Dammit Bjorn every time you say Hey Google you trigger my google home. It’s having a very hard time finding a route from USA. Edit: I see I’m like the hundredth person to say the same thing, sorry
That's 1000€ less than a Tesla Model 3 (SR+) in Germany right now - pretty damn naked though.
I would prefer the EV6 rear wheel model with 74kWh batterie, instead of the PS2. Better charging speed, more range and V2load for the same money.
11h15min ?! No. Not every driver has this Ninja charging stop with 1% or 2% SOC. You should add minimum 30minutes for normal holiday drivers.
Good looking car
Amazing Stuff
Will you test the new Bmw I4?
For now my favourite cars are VW Id4, Kia EV6, Bmw IX3 and Mercedes EQA.
Yes
ioniq 5 looking pretty good. Not as efficient as Tesla but it looks like charging speed makes up for that.
What is the point of this comment?
any chance you colod test the i4 edrive40
Wouldn‘t an inaccuracy of the car‘s odometer skew some of the time measurements of the 1000km challenge? Maybe a calibration run on a 10km stretch of road could be done?
@@abraxastulammo9940 thanks, I missed that part.
I like this car, but really the design of the UI turned me off a lot. :-/ And I liked my Volvo XC40.
The software interface in the Polestars are second to none, so clear, no clutter, leaves everyone behind, kudos to Google!
Tesla's is still 100x better and easier to use.
My google home kept telling me it can’t navigate, every time it head, hey google.
You can install ABRP directly onto the Polestar 2's infotainment system...
I'm guessing that won't preheat the battery though?
I know...

@@bjornnyland I thought you must :) By the way did you know that Polestar have just rolled out a 1000 EUR power update for the Polestar 2 LR DM, giving you an extra 50kW and up to 700Nm of torque?
Oof 264 Wh/km aka 425 Wh/mile? Why’s the efficiency *so* low? Even just the basic standard range gets way lower efficiency and range than it claims. I know most EV’s are a bit under their advertised range but this seems unusually low. I like the car but they have to either improve their battery size, or fix their advertised range/efficiency if its real world specs are this far off the advertised ones.
Aerodynamic is the key here. The Polestar 2 is like a wall....
@@sowiwo2019 It's a sister car to the XC40, designed by Volvo. It was built to be a hybrid car. Contrary to what's reported in the media, it wasn't built to go head to head with pure EVs like the Model 3. It actually was used to give Polestar an affordable car since Volvo didn't use the body as an S40.
But the Precept will be aeordynamic as are the Polestar 3 and such. Those interested in Polestar just have to wait for them to come out. Those will be pure EVs. Late next year is when they are said to come out.

That was a great song; in the US it’s not available iTunes; hoping it gets added.
Hei Bjørn
Det er meningen å snakke norsk til google i Norge 😀
@@starvictory7079 😂😂
I set language to English. Didn't you notice that the Google voice was in English as well? When you set it to Norwegian, the voice will be in Norwegian.
@@bjornnyland Ja det stemmer vel d, du hadde nok rett igjen 👍
I found Google maps voice commands to work well if you spell out the name of the place. Even does weird German Town names. :D
Seeing that this isn't a dedicated EV platform and so heavy, it does well. The Polestar 3 should be much improved as it will be an all-EV platform. No more cramped cabin and it'll have upgraded voltage.
I'd love to see a worst case scenario 1000 km challenge. You know, rain, wind, snow, whatever... To see how bad it could be compared to a benchmarked car.
BTW Bjorn, please don't mess up with Google assistant... You piss off lots of viewers 🤣
It will not be a 1k KM challenge if there is not an emergency shiiiiiiii... 😂
Yeah that's why it's called Q8 anyway. Because in English this pronounces as Kuwait.
More like Ku-ait.
I watched a lot of different EV videos and every time I think that tesla user interface is more developed in comparison. In Canada AWD Polestar 2 (no addons) vs LR Model 3 (no addons) is almost same price. Polestar 2 is a pretty car though, I have seen it in person, but never driven.
For my area in Canada (the prairies in the mid/north area) the polestar just doesn't have the range and the charger support just doesn't cut it. It's tough enough in my long range model 3. Other then that the polestar seems like a nice car though. I could see people in Toronto/Quebec/Vancouver and what not doing just fine with their more developed charging network though
Polestar 2 feels much more solid, IMO. Model 3 is very lively and is a true EV design. Polestar feels like a very sporty modern hybrid Volvo that's all-electric.
Hey Google!
@10:50 why do you keep saying iona t? 😂😂😂
Pity that Google maps doesn´t have satellite view in the P2.
ABC: Always be calculating
Just wish it was rwd instead of fwd
This is in no way up to the competition. The naked base costs 5.000 more than a well-equipped Model 3 where I live.
Hi Bjørn! I’m kindly asking, can you please start to edit out the “hey Google” part from your videos? A lot of your viewers has Google home speakers at home and it’s extremely annoying when they all suddenly activates and starts listening. It was funny the first time, but not after that.
Anyways, love your videos! Keep it up 😀
