The Polestar 2
Watched the unveiling video, it looks ok... not a fan of the grill up front, but the rest of the design is pretty sharp. Interior looks great.
Exterior color options are a bit dull, and they seem to have two different shades of dark grey available? Odd choice that...
They're also partnering with Google to have their Assistant built in, along with the ability to load apps from the Google Play store, which I think is a great move.
Wish they'd give more details on their charging options... also specs showing for their "intro price" of $63,000 are already below Model 3s specs at the same price point, though I'm guessing this intro price probably includes their auto-pilot equivalent. I can't find anything that specifies that or even really talks about their driver assistance stuff, other than a mention of emergency braking and steering in the slide deck during the presentation.
The headlight tech seems pretty cool as well, though how well it works in real world situations will remain to be seen.
Anyway, while the specs don't quite beat the Model 3 LR AWD, I could definitely see people preferring the Polestar 2 for interior aesthetics and the Google interface... with a big caveat being those charging infrastructure questions. And of course availability in general, as they appeared to only show stores in certain areas on East and West coast for the US.
