Disappointing but Interesting still, playing the exclusivity card well you will pay subscriptions but never fully own it unless you had 155k directly ( which is outrageous for that amount there were better options in many ends) like the Z8 this model clearly suffers an identity crisis not knowing what to be:

  • Is a luxury car? mm so so but not quite..
  • a high performance model? too heavy
  • a GT?? naah
  • an innovative hybrid? mmm idk

It doesn't seem to do any of this end goals properly ( Like the Z8 at the time) idk tbh.. even derivating from volvo isn't reliable either .i don't understand this car but something is telling me that like the Z8 this will gain value over time cuz it's too obtuse to be understanded like the Z8 , this is Polestar's def halo car and like the Z8 apparently a succesfull fail? we will see

If it was $70k, then it would be a good car. At $160K, it’s just too expensive

If you mix a Honda NSX and a Ford Mustang you get this :)

The car looks good, But too expensive, And too much like a Pure Volvo, I cant really see the justufied pricetage, Power is good, But unless your affordable, Power isnt a huge selling point.

The engine makes 300 horsepower and 273 LB-FT and power is sent to the front wheels. Both motors combined produce 235 horsepower and 354 LB-FT on the rear axle. And finally, there’s an ISG, or “Integrated Starter Generator”, that produces 68 horsepower and 111 LB-FT, mounted on the engine. It has a total battery capacity of 34 kWh and allows for a 93 mile all-electric range,
