Frequently Asked Questions
The Polestar 2 Long Range Dual Motor (2020-2023) is equipped with a powertrain that delivers up to 300 kW (402 hp) of power and 660 Nm of torque.
This enables a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 4.7 seconds (№29 out of 123 ranked positions, among 979 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions) and a top speed of 205 km/h.
In Europe, a performance upgrade is available for an additional 1,000 euros. This upgrade boosts the dual-motor powertrain for a total output of 350 kW (476 hp) and 680 Nm. The result is a noticeably quicker car: the 0-100 km/h sprint time drops to 4.4 seconds, while acceleration from 80 to 120 km/h takes just 2.2 seconds – a half-second improvement over the standard model. Furthermore, launch control allows for optimized acceleration from a standstill, unlocking the car's full potential for a more dynamic driving experience.
The estimated real-world range for Polestar 2 Long Range Dual Motor (2020-2023) is 401 km, ranking it №173 out of 359 ranked positions. Several conditions can influence this range:
- Speed: The battery drains faster at higher speeds.
- Temperature: Extreme temperatures can impact range.
- Terrain: Range is reduced on hilly or mountainous terrain.
- Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors, such as frequent acceleration and braking, decrease efficiency.
- Feature utilization: Climate control and media system usage also affect range.
These figures are approximations, and your actual driving range may vary. When planning trips, consider these factors and be prepared for potential charging stops.

The Polestar 2 Long Range Dual Motor (2020-2023) in Europe is equipped with a CCS Type 2 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 53 km of range added per hour.
For faster charging, use DC fast-charging stations. The Polestar 2 Long Range Dual Motor (2020-2023) supports a maximum DC charging rate of 150 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 our EV Charging Calculator.
