Overview
Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor 2021 overview
Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor 2021 comes as an electric liftback in FWD form and a 5-seat cabin. 0–60 mph: 7.4 s, well above the class median of 4.7 s.
The battery has 75 kWh usable (78 kWh nominal). EPA range: 270 mi.
Charging includes AC charging up to 9.6 kW (J1772); DC fast charging up to 149 kW (CCS Combo 1). For DC fast charging, it adds ~67 mi in 10 min; Battery preconditioning supports navigation-based routing.
Class comparison
Compared with 36 other liftbacks, Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor 2021 leans toward slower acceleration and less range in 10 min. 0-60 mph is slower than the class median; 7.4 s vs 4.7 s; 2.7 s slower, +57%. Range added in 10 min (est.) is lower than the class median; 67 mi vs 96 mi; 29 mi lower, -30%. Peak DC power is below the class median; 149 kW vs 200 kW; 51 kW lower, -26%. Main trade-off: lower peak DC power.

Real range estimates The values shown here are estimates calculated by BEV-Database using EPA range/efficiency data (where available) and the usable battery capacity of the car. “Mild weather" represents driving in roughly 68-77 °F without heavy use of climate control, while "Cold weather" reflects winter conditions with the cabin heater on (around 14 °F). "Highway" figures assume steady cruising at about 65 mph-70 mph. These figures are not official test results or guarantees. Real-world range will vary depending on speed, temperature, traffic, road profile, payload, tires and driving style.
BEVDB estimates use EPA-rated (or derived) consumption and usable battery capacity to model city/highway ranges; the combined value averages the four scenarios.
Reminder: Range and energy consumption figures are estimates. Actual results may vary depending on weather, driving style, terrain, and other conditions.
