I test drove a Model Y LR with 19"s yesterday and Polestar 2 with 20"s today. Even considering the difference in wheel size, I was surprised to find the Model Y to be much more comfortable of the two. Both rode a little harshly over bumps. Both had the "boom" sensation from the hatch. In the Polestar I could actually see the rear parcel shelf "booming" like a sub-woofer over bumps. Overall, the P2 had a lot more bouncing around on the road. It actually left my back and neck sore afterwards (I'm 47 with back issues).
The seats and upright position were FAR more comfortable in the Y. This includes the armrests which were an uncomfortable fabric in the P2. I actually could only get my arm on the right armrest if both cup holders were covered with the sliding armrest. Additionally, the smaller size of the P2 felt cramped and the lower ride height was more difficult getting in and out.
Both cars were fast, but I enjoyed the driving experience of the Y.
Only advantage the P2 really had was in-mirror blind-spot warning.
This kind of seals the deal for the MY for me.
