I have a Y on order for my wife but we went out this weekend and looked at a Polestar 2. Impressive car on the surface. Super build quality, fit, finish etc. But, my wife and I got into and within 30 seconds, went "nope, nope, nope".. very tight cockpit design and the massive center console is a complete turn off to us. I will say we are probably spoiled now after having a Model 3 all this time. But we both noticed things like the chunky user interface, there is a "drive line" hump between the rear seats on the floor? what the heck is that? the rear seats were tight.. even for the two of us at 5-8 each.. My observation was that the Polestar is a ICE car with two electric motors wedged into it. Is that bad? Not really.. if you want the refined and luxury car feel, it fits the bill nicely. In some ways, better than BMW and some of the others. But it's not a Tesla.. doesn't have the range even with the extended range pack and doesn't have the software or tech. We decided to stay with the Y order for now. But we are still poking around at the newest crop of EVs. Its very interesting to see where the market is going for EVs. I hope Tesla takes a few lessons of their competition to heart in the coming year or two. I will add the neither of us were interested at all in the ID4.. the interior just didnt measure up to the price tag.
Any other suggestions for a competitor to the Y?
