Polestar 2
As the second model introduced by Polestar, the 2 is a fully electric fastback sedan with a much more affordable price than the 1. There are several changes and updates for the 2022 model year. Chief among them is a new long-range, single-motor variant offering 231 horsepower, an estimated range of 426 kilometres and a starting price just below $50,000. The dual-motor, AWD-equipped variant continues, of course, but now costs less money.
