Is This -Finally- The Model 3 Fighter? 2021 Polestar 2 First Drive

When is a Volvo not a Volvo? When it's electrified, stuffed with the latest tech and sold through a fancy showroom on Main Street rather than Auto Row. Also when it's made by Volvo's electric subsidiary Polestar. For reasons that are too complicated and tenuous to explain, the Swedes and their Chinese owners decided that the best thing to do was to create a separate company dedicated to sporty, driver-focused electric cars and that's what I snagged for a quick drive today. autos: At least it s not another CUV/SUV; and I m saying that as a Rav4 owner. I m really over all these crossovers. The only reason why I bought one was because I needed better ground clearance than what most modern sedans provide with their really low front bumpers for winter where I live. I m looking forward the the all electric VW ID wagon in a few years, hopefully the lower bumper won t be an issue. I swore I would never buy another VW again; but if they can make an electric car affordable and a WAGON, I would be interested.

Volvo-Geely relation is clearly healthier than previous Volvo-Ford. Without massive financial support from Geely, all modern Volvos would be impossible; in return, Volvo helps Geely s mainstream models (below 30k) much safer and overall better.

Great review Alex, very informative review especially on the weight and dealer network. Wanted to give you some positive comments before all the hate mail from Tesla fanboys pile up!

Alex is the definition of dedication, there are several wildfires raging near his place, evacuation issued, but none of that could stop him from bringing us quality content per usual!

Ok, looks like a valid attempt. But I still have no idea why all EVs except Tesla continue to have fake front grilles. Actual opening for cooling is less than 10% of its area.

Anything other than a Tesla is fine by me they are too boring looking and common like a Toyota Camry. I'm glad that Polestar is here and hopefully more brands will join in.

I love it. Just far too expensive. Will probably get the model 3 just because it s cheaper and it s got the supercharger network here in California. No brainer for me.
reply

Stop comparing it to Volvo. Nobody cares how it compares to a completely irrelevant car brand. Seven minutes in and I m finally hearing how it compares to the model 3.
reply

I don't get. why on earth is this car so expensive?
They went out of their way to make it a turd. What is wrong with automakers these days.

reply

Are there luxury features in the Polestar 2 that the Model 3 doesn't have? Like dimming side mirrors, ventilated seats, etc.
