About the Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor (2024)
Independent spec and rating reference. No offers, no sales.
The Polestar 2 has been on the market since 2020 on Geely's CMA platform, shared with the Volvo XC40.

WLTP range 655 km, system power 299 hp, DC charging peak 205 kW (manufacturer figures).
In practice
WLTP consumption is 14.8 kWh/100km (manufacturer figure). Across a full year, owners report mixed around 17.5 kWh/100km (owner forums, n approx 25, not measured by us); in winter the real range falls below the 655 km WLTP. Boot 405 l plus a 35 l frunk; braked towing weight 1,500 kg.

Points to note
Operation runs largely via the central screen; physical buttons for climate are absent. The rear bench has limited headroom for tall passengers (recurring owner point). The boot is fastback-style, the rear window is part of the tailgate. The Polestar 2 is built in China; check import duty rules for your market.
