Polestar upgraded its five-door EV a boost in 2023 for the 2024 model year, and besides the updated exterior, it also offered new options for the drivetrain.
The Swedish brand has been focused on performance electric vehicles and was as relentless. After successfully introducing the 2 on the market in 2017, it continued improving the car. But instead of adding small upgrades year by year, it gathered them and put them all together in the facelifted 2024 model year.
With its minimalist design language, Polestar 2 was a distinct appearance on the market. Not only that, it came with a prestigious heritage but also with a promise of safety. In addition, the 2024 model year came with a flat panel between the headlights instead of an egg-crate grille like its predecessor. In addition, the vehicle sported new 20” light-alloy wheels.
Inside, the automaker installed standard wireless charging on the entire range and improved the safety systems. In addition, it came with Cross Traffic Alert, Rear Collision Warning and Mitigation, and a 360-degree camera.
But the most significant upgrades were on the drivetrain, where the automaker installed a 69 kWh battery pack for the base version with an option for an 82 kWh. Single motor versions featured a rear-wheel drive system instead of FWD as on its predecessor. At the same time, the twin-motor vehicles have received a 10 kWh (14 hp) boost over the 2017 model year. Top of the range version featured a Performance Pack option that provided 350 kW (476 hp) sent in all corners.
