Used Polestar 2 for sale

Built on Volvo’s safety heritage, every Polestar 2 boasts a five-star Euro NCAP rating. Standard safety features include collision mitigation, lane-keeping assist and driver alert systems. The optional Pilot Pack adds adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, and a 360-degree camera, enhancing family-friendly safety.

All Polestar 2 models are fully electric. Early versions (2020–2022) came with either single-motor front-wheel drive or dual-motor all-wheel drive, paired with 64kWh or 78kWh batteries. The 2023 update switched single-motor cars to rear-wheel drive, improved motors and extended range. Dual-motor variants remain the most powerful, offering up to 476hp with all-wheel drive.

The Polestar 2 features an 11-inch Google-powered touchscreen with built-in Google Maps and Spotify, plus over-the-air software updates. A digital driver display, keyless entry, heated seats and adaptive LED headlights come standard. Optional packs include panoramic roofs, premium audio and enhanced safety aids.

Measured in miles per kWh, the Polestar 2 typically delivers between 3 and 4.2 miles per kWh, depending on battery size and driving conditions. Range varies from around 297 miles for the standard 67kWh battery to 406 miles WLTP for the 2023 long-range model, though real-world range may be slightly lower.

Look out for software or touchscreen glitches and inspect for bodywork and wheel damage like stone chips. Confirm any recalls – notably those relating to battery systems and electrical contacts – have been addressed. The AA Vehicle Inspection is a good resource to help with these checks. Also, ask about recent software updates to ensure your car runs smoothly.

Owner reports are generally positive but with some caveats. What Car?’s reliability survey ranks the Polestar 2 above the Kia EV6 but below Tesla. About 40% of owners report minor issues, mostly infotainment or 12V electrical system glitches, which are often resolved quickly under warranty. There are no widespread concerns about the main electric drivetrain or motors.
