    Special thanks to our Patrons for their support of the channel! Polestar 2 or Tesla Model 3?

    I'm a previous owners of a Model 3, and now have a Polestar 2 on order. So my answer is clear, Polestar. Of note the 2024 Long Range single motor P2s have a larger battery, improved charging, and more range. To me the Polestar is just a better overall package that and I don't want to line Elon's pockets.

    The trunk reminds me of the Saab 900's and 9000's

    There is a ton of misinformation in this video. Do your research before posting. All Polstar 2's come with dual motor and AWD?? Trunk also opens up via kick sensor. Come on man

      Ye, I was going to say the same. There are FWD versions until 2023 and now 2024 single motor is RWD.

    Some errors:
    - Polestar started out as an independent company in 1996 to later be bought by Volvo in 2015.
    - No, the Polestar 2 does not come as an AWD standard in the North American market. That may be a specific dealer choice in your state.
    - No, the Polestar 2 does not auto-lock when you walk away (after leaving the car).
    - Most markets offer both the mini key and larger key with each sale.
    - The 2024 has been out for a few months and is far better in range and performance. I am surprised you choose to test the outgoing model.

    Teslas look really boring. That’s worth $10k easy. I bought a polestar 3. Just waiting now. I can’t wait. Polestar is a luxury sports brand. Tesla is a frog brand. Super boring

    You can also kick your foot under the license plate and it opens that way too

    2 things: if "speed and agility" are your game in this one, you should have gotten your hands on the Performance version. Also, as this is only 2 weeks old, your timing is just a bit off. The new model year has significant updates in both drivetrain and range. With that being said, I have an order in for the '24 Polestar 2 with Pilot and Plus Packs. It has great performance, Android OS for a far better interface than any other car, and looks so much better than a Model 3. Also, they don't "start" at $60k. The AWD, dual motor with Pilot and Plus packs come in at just a few hundred over $60. They are only truly over $60k with the Performance Package.

    interior should have more storage space but that's my only gripe. im sure they'll address that soon with a refresh.

    Hey man, Polestar 2 owner for over 2 years.
    Okay, I will help you going through all your missed details in your video.
    1 thing, you don’t need to push the bottom P, wile you drive the car (slowly)😂 just open the drivers door and leave the seat, the car will automatically stop and park, cause of the sensors in the driving seat.
    2: the gear handle is designed as a armrest.
    3 the trunk door can easily opens by swinging/slide your food underneath the car end.
    4 the “secret opening divider, it’s actually a shopping bag stabilizer.
    The reason why polestar has for design the side mirrors like that, corsets lower production costs.
    5 all most all of the interior materials, is made by recycled materials for lower the co2 costs.
    A funny cool feature that’s not has any functionality is that you can find the year of the seatbelt invention that comes from Volvo.
