Charging an electric car is generally cheaper than filling up with gas, depending on the price at the time. There are plenty of options to save money and reduce range anxiety. The information on this page will give you an indication of how often you would need to charge your Polestar.

* The Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) measures the range of a car travelling at an average speed of 47 km/h in summer temperatures from a 100% to 0% state of charge. The actual range achieved under real conditions varies depending on driving behaviour and other external factors. The certified WLTP range is therefore normally not achievable in real life. Please learn more about WLTP here.

Charging an electric car is significantly cheaper than refuelling a petrol car. Especially if you use your power supply at home. Using a public charging station tends to cost more, but you can also find free charging stations near shopping centres, workplaces and libraries.

- 01.Factors affecting charging frequency
The more you drive, the more you have to charge. Driving speed, weather conditions, type of road, wheel size and climate control all influence your real life range and therefore your charging requirements. In Europe, people drive an average of 33km (20 miles) a day. With this kind of usage, you would only have to charge Polestar 2 about once a week. In practice, it’s easiest to just top up the battery when you park your car at home or work, so once per week is only hypothetical.
- 02.Drive farther on a single charge
The range you can travel in a fully charged Polestar 2 depends on which version of the car you own, your driving speed and style, and other external factors. On a long trip, it’s actually faster to stop twice and top up to 80% than to stop once and charge to 100%.
- 03.Charge in as little as 40 minutes
There are a number of ways you can charge the Polestar 2, from plugging it into the mains at home (relatively slow but more affordable) to using a public charging station (faster but less cost-effective). For example, a 40-minute charge at a fast charging station should be enough to charge the Polestar 2’s battery to 80%.
