    I do love the clean/minimalist look to these cars. I think it has to be in white for it to really pop. The other colours look flat in comparison. Great review as always

    Single Motor Long Range with Plus pack.
    1 year old after suffering 20% depreciation (hopefully more)........would be the optimal way to get into one of these.
    Beautiful car and would probably be top of my EV wish list. (this might change if the Xiaomi SU7 ever makes it to our shores)

    Hey ScottyJ1122 - Just a few facts for you Volvo trolls….(1) Polestar is fully funded for the next 3 years…with 3 new models to launch during that time period. Polestar has, as of March 2024, over $1 billion in independent (not Volvo) financing; (2) Geely owns both Polestar and Volvo. So nothing that Volvo did, with respect to divesting itself from Polestar, was done without Geely’s authorization.; (3) As Polestar cars are far more interesting (ie, Volvo cars are still stodgy looking…always have been, and always will be) than Volvo EV’s, the Geely plan was to always separate Polestar from Volvo. I’m very happy that Volvo management is out of Polestar’s chain of command. Volvo was always an anchor on Polestar’s creativity and innovation. Ultimately, whether Polestar or any EV startup company survives the slowdown in demand in EV’s from consumers, is something the market will determine. Clearly, this slowdown is affecting many/most EV brands in terms of sales. Coupled with huge US tariffs and the loss of any US subsidy for Polestar cars, does put them at a pricing disadvantage. But for the next 3-4 years, Polestar will be producing some stellar EV’s, and my advice for anybody worrying about their future…I would lease, then there is nothing to worry about during your lease period.

    Beautiful car, thorough review Nobby. Half the add-ons in the 6k ‘plus pack’ I would have expected to be included in a 70k car. I just picked up a Model Y RWD for 44k 0% HP (10k deposit) Polstar 4 is very popular in China selling at 45k euro equivalent

    Well at least they got over the “not doing rear windscreen wiper” 😊. Makes you wonder what the hell €68,000 gets you when the list of items in the pack should probably be standard …….be interesting to see how much that lovely interior cost. Think you could be getting up to €90,000 for the dual motor. And no rear windscreen.

    I don’t get it. What was the benefit of having no rear window? As a van driver in a past life, I do not want to go back to no rear window for no reason. What is gained in such an odd choice?

    • @robertpolestar-em4je
      @robertpolestar-em4je 12 дней назад +2

      As meantioned…removing the rear window, and all the supporting support infrastructure needed for the window….the people in the rear get more headroom and space, as well as the ability to recline the rear seats ….than they would if there was a window. But, the biggest improvement (not mentioned in this review) is that the camera at the top of the roof, that displays a 4K image on the rear view mirror…gives a MUCH wider field of view (I think 30-40 degrees wider) for the driver…so you not only see the rear of the car, but also the side of the car. HUGE improvement from the view one would get from their being a rear window.

    22 inch wheels……and with the weight of EVs, you’ll be forking out a lot of money quite regularly for new rubber. Too expensive but with depreciation, you’ll probably get one free with €50 worth of petrol next year😂. EV sales are falling month on month and down 40% in the past 12 months. But if you want one, go for it. Personally I’ll stay with ICE cars for the foreseeable, as they can be traded in unlike EVs that are unwanted by a lot of dealers.

      @@S4MM7ify Never owned a VW pal amongst the 15 cars I have purchased. I did have a Qashqai for 13 years that I sold for €4,000 with 380,000kms on the clock. That's more than that Duracell toy car will be worth in a few years. But hey, a fool and their money is easily parted. And for the record, when I went to buy my current ICE car earlier this year (for cash btw), the dealer was almost begging me to buy one of his EV stock that evidently were gathering dust in the showroom. The sales figures prove no one wants them, with sales down month on month this year and down 42% in the past 12 months.

      ⁠@@davidmehlhorn726Yeah I don’t think my point was that you definitely had a Passat ffs 😂 You’ve just proven my point with the crap you’ve said about a bloody Qashqai. Who wants one of those? €4k isn’t even a deposit on a Polestar 4.
      380,000km is not impressive at all. There are Tesla’s rocking around with way more km on the clock and still on all original parts, some even with original brake discs. I’d much rather have a high mileage Tesla than your sewing machine on wheels.
      Hope you sold your Datsun with a fully attached boot pull. Gaffa tape doesn’t count! 😅

But hey, you drive your duracell tin can and I hope you enjoy it, as you'll be stuck with it as no one wants them. Teslas? Yeah really in demand they are.

    I’m driving a polestar 2 while my model y is fixed, due to a hit and run it recorded.
    The polestar is so monumentally behind on so many fronts it is unbelievable. I tried to like it. But far out. I miss absolutely everything about the model Y in comparison.
    Looks like the polestar 4 has copied Tesla horizontal screen layout and UX on many fronts. This is probably a good thing, as the UX on the 2 is infuriating, and clunky as hell.
