Video Summary
Okay, here is a comprehensive review summary from the YouTube video:The 2024 Polestar 2's exterior design hasn't changed significantly, maintaining the true Polestar DNA.
The front grill has been updated with a Polestar 3-inspired design that houses radar, cruise control, and safety systems in a "smart area."
The headlights remain LED, consistent with previous versions.
The 20-inch alloys and copper/gold brake finishing are liked. Different wheel designs can be specified.
The wing mirrors are bezel-less, adding to a sleek design.
The side of the car features minimalist branding, listing the 82kWh battery and 350kW power.
Changes include an updated battery, increased charging speeds, and improved efficiency.
The single-motor variants have been moved from front-wheel drive to rear-wheel drive only.
The rear's LED tail lights are similar to the predecessor with a long bar.
A downside is the low placement of the boot opening button; it's too low.
The key fob also can open the boot.
The boot space is 405 liters, increasing when folding the seats down to 1097 liters. The trunk has a divider for organizing space.
A frunk provides an extra 41 liters of space for the charging cable.
In the back seat, leg room depends on the front seating arrangement, offering adequate knee and foot space.
A transmission tunnel, resulting from the Volvo ice platform, compromises floor space.
Rear passengers get heated seats and USB-C ports, and manual climate control.
Interior seat materials are nice and soft.
The window's short height in the back can make some feel claustrophobic.
The frameless, but the rear view mirrors are small.
The steering wheel remains consistent with previous models.
It has a 12.3-inch display for vital driving information.
The touchscreen is 11.2 inches and is a tablet run by Google's Android Automotive, providing apps but requiring a cable connection for Apple CarPlay.
Its gear shifter has the Polestar logo and is clicked when pushed up and down.
The infotainment system's simplicity is liked.
There is a wireless charging area with USB-C ports in the front, only one port allows for mirror link.
The powertrain options are standard or long range. A long-range model and a dual-motor both exist.
Driving handling is good; corners feel smooth.
20-inch alloys can make the road more audible.
