Frequently Asked Questions

How powerful is it? How fast does it accelerate?

The Polestar 2 Standard Range Single Motor (2023-2024) is equipped with a powertrain that delivers up to 200 kW (268 hp) of power and 361 lb-ft of torque.

This enables a 0 to 60 mph acceleration in 6.1 seconds (ranked №340 out of 693 electric vehicles) and a top speed of 127 mph.

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

Polestar 2 Standard Range Single Motor (2023-2024) achieves a real-world range of 251–307 miles, placing it at №220 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 Standard Range Single Motor (2023-2024) in the USA comes with a CCS Type 2 charging port. It can be charged at home using a standard domestic socket or at any public AC charging station with the compatible cable. It's important to note that the car's on-board charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging rate to 11 kW, resulting in approximately 41 miles of range added per hour of charging.

For significantly faster charging, public DC fast-charging stations are available. Although the car can achieve a maximum DC charging rate of 135 kW, factors such as battery temperature and charge level may affect the actual charging speed.
