A meticulously engineered experience

Creating a car that redefines performance is not just a question of adding up the numbers and combining the best components. It also has to have the right feel. Polestar 2 is based on countless hours of devoted tuning in all different conditions, down to road-testing washers of different millimetre thicknesses.

Instant power at any speed

As the Polestar 2’s electric powertrain has far fewer moving parts than a conventional powertrain, there’s no waiting for the momentum to build up. All versions of the car provide instant power and torque, creating the perfect balance between comfort and performance.

Brake without the brake pedal

The regenerative braking system of the Polestar 2 lets you come to a stop without using the brake pedal. Just ease back on the accelerator to slow down and recharge the battery at the same time.

The optimal feel

Polestar engineers have spent thousands of hours optimising all car components and making them work in unison. The result is what we call “The golden ride”: a perfectly balanced chassis, with no rational compromises on comfort or handling.

A battery that improves handling

The battery pack of the Polestar 2 does much more than provide power. Designed to be an integral part of the chassis, its size and placement create the torsional stiffness and low centre of gravity needed for responsive handling.
