Message: [QUOTE="Henry Pickavet, post: 4393"] As part of its recently announced [URL='https://www.engadget.com/for-polestar-the-twos-are-anything-but-terrible-130059155.html']2022 lineup[/URL], Volvo subsidiary Polestar introduced a new single-motor variant of its Polestar 2 electric sedan. If you were waiting on an EPA estimate before reserving one, wait no more. You can expect to get about 270 miles of range on a single charge from the car’s 75 kWh battery, Polestar announced on Wednesday. That puts the FWD model in the company of vehicles like the [URL='https://www.engadget.com/volkswagens-id-4-ev-is-the-basic-people-mover-youve-been-waiting-for-163027836.html']Volkswagen ID.4[/URL] and [URL='https://www.engadget.com/tesla-model-3-2021-refresh-offers-more-range-and-other-improvements-114539380.html']Model 3[/URL]. With the entry-level models of those two cars, you can expect 249 miles and 263 miles of range, respectively. That’s not bad given the Polestar 2’s $47,200 starting price, but not nearly as good as the 303 miles of EPA-rated range Hyundai will offer with the $44,875 version of its [URL='https://www.engadget.com/hyundais-300-mile-ioniq-5-crossover-ev-makes-its-official-north-american-debut-190054008.html']Ioniq 5[/URL]. The automaker also announced today it’s rolling out an over-the-air update for all Polestar 2 vehicles. The new software allows you to schedule when you want your car to charge, so that you can take advantage of off-peak pricing. The update also includes refinements for the car’s driver-assist systems. In the coming months, Polestar plans to release a software upgrade that will allow owners of the dual-motor Polestar 2 to [URL='https://www.engadget.com/polestar-2-over-the-air-update-torque-horsepower-acceleration-151000748.html']unlock additional torque and horsepower[/URL] from their car for a fee.
