They might offer usb a > c adapters
Vehicle to load adapter comes with the 45 (3 pin)
All other cables included, including granny cable
Towing capacity 1600kg
Boot load cover

Not sure on the range. I don’t think this is outstanding.

Weird showing the smaller driver screen. Doesn’t look good.

Gold Matt paint looks great. Black interior looks very dark. Will be with the solar roof.

Yeh that range needs clarified. Seems very low. I do think the solar roof is pretty cool. Every car has a pano roof these days! I don’t think the driver display they showed is the one in the 45. Lower spec car so smaller screen perhaps? But then she did say this was a ‘regular’ top spec on display.

How was it dreadful?

 

[UrbanSplash]

Yes 260 miles range is just not good enough for the asking price etc. I’m coming from a M3 LR.

 

[UrbanSplash]

Yeh to be fair the event was ok. Decent effort. Gold paint looks great

 

[UrbanSplash]

268 miles confirmed. I’m out. That’s pathetic.

For nearly £50k there are far too many compromises. Range. OTA updates. Servicing. Tow hitch extra cost. Wired CarPlay. No fog lights.

They can’t even say if the vehicle to load adapter is waterproof. Not much use if it’s not.

Only think going for it now is that it looks cool

Oh. What happened with polestar ?

Long story. Short version - we got one of the very early P2's and expected some teething problems, but hit a whole load of issues and problems resulting in the car being basically unusable. In addition there were a lot or recalls coming out to rectify mechanical defects and software issues, and promised software such as OTA and phone App were suddenly announced as having long delays. We gave notice of intention to reject within 14 days and gave them a chance (then another) to fix. After 2 failed attempts by Volvo to fix the problems we decided enough was enough and rejected the car. At that time Volvo had not been trained or familiarised in the P2 and did their best but simply had the problem dumped in their laps in the UK and didn't have a clue.
We did everything in writing via email, but still had difficulty in getting them to collect the car. Polestar have little infrastructure in the UK and they clearly didn't give a [insert you own word here!] about us as customers or try or compensate us in any way. Sad, we didn't want to reject but they gave us no alternative.

Oh wow. I was considering a P2. Seen an early pre production model in Stockholm a couple of years ago and it looked great. Subsequent reviews have been good. Shame it didn’t live up to expectations

Not keen on the colour of the press car. They should of gone for a matt. Vehicle to load could enable off grid tent camping. Also power a trailer tent or caravan I imagine. Must be similar output to a campsite commando socket
