About Polestar 2 Long Range Performance (2023-…)

Detailed Descriptions

The Polestar 2 Long Range Performance (2023-…) is an all-electric all-wheel drive liftback. It came out in 2023 replacing the older Polestar 2 Long Range Performance (2021-2023). Brand new, the car starts around $56,900.

The Polestar 2 Long Range Performance (2023-…) has a 82 kWh battery pack, allowing it to travel up to 286 mi on a single charge. The car has an average efficiency of 27.6 kWh per 100 miles (or 3.6 miles per kWh) — ranked №197 out of 695 electric vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions

How powerful is it? How fast does it accelerate?

The Polestar 2 Long Range Performance (2023-…) can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 4.1 seconds (ranked №135 out of 693 electric vehicles) and reach a top speed of 127 mph.

The car’s powertrain delivers up to 335 kW (449 hp) of power and 546 lb-ft of torque.

How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?

Polestar 2 Long Range Performance (2023-…) achieves a real-world range of 257–315 miles, placing it at №195 among 693 electric vehicles. However, this range is subject to several influences:

  • Speed: Traveling at higher speeds reduces battery life.
  • Temperature: Extreme cold or hot weather can affect range.
  • Terrain: Hilly or mountainous landscapes decrease range.
  • Driving habits: Aggressive driving with frequent acceleration and braking consumes more energy.
  • Feature usage: Climate control and media systems also influence range.

It's important to acknowledge that these are estimations, and your actual driving range may differ. Consider these factors when planning your trip and be ready for potential charging stops.

Utilize the interactive EV Navigation map for trip planning assistance.

What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?

The Polestar 2 Long Range Performance (2023-…) in the USA is equipped with a CCS Type 1 charging port. You can charge it conveniently at home using a standard outlet, or utilize any public AC charging station with the appropriate cable. However, the car's built-in charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging speed to 11 kW, which translates to roughly 36 miles of range added per hour.

For faster charging, use DC fast-charging stations. The Polestar 2 Long Range Performance (2023-…) supports a maximum DC charging rate of 205 kW, but it's important to note that battery temperature and current charge level can affect the actual charging speed you'll experience.

To estimate charging time, rate, and cost, you can use Green Cars Compare Charging Calculator.

How big is it? What are the dimensions (length, width, height)?

The size and weight specifications for Polestar 2 Long Range Performance (2023-…) are as follows:

  • Length: 181.3 in
  • Width: 78.1 in (including side mirrors) or 73.2 in (excluding side mirrors)
  • Height: 58 in
  • Wheelbase: 107.7 in (distance between the center of the front and rear wheels)
  • Curb weight: 4640 lbs (weight of the empty car, no people or cargo)
How much cargo space does it offer? Does it have a front trunk?

The rear cargo area of the Polestar 2 Long Range Performance (2023-…) provides 14.4 cubic feet of space when the rear seats are upright (ranked №436 out of 693 electric vehicles).

Folding these seats down unlocks a maximum cargo capacity of 38.7 cubic feet (ranked №436 out of 693 electric vehicles).
