The stupid thing about the no rear windscreen is that if you’re following a car you can often get a sense of what is going on ahead of them through the rear windscreen. I hate following a van etc for that reason. Honestly, this just seems completely unnecessary.

[@nickthaskater]

100%. So many times being able to.see through the car ahead makes for safer driving overall. There is literally no reason to have no window in this car especially when they have a giant pane on the roof.

I love that British people say "saloon" instead of "sedan." It always makes me imagine the car walking into an old western-style bar and letting people know this town ain't big enough for the both of us

[@leangrypoulet7523]

For us older Brits, pubs used to be divided into two separate areas, often with different entrances, called the ‘Public’ bar and the ‘Saloon’ bar. The Saloon bar was the smarter of the two, often with carpet on the floor, slightly nicer material on seats/benches, and even curtains. The public bar was ‘spit n sawdust’. The saloon bar usually charged more for a pint, as much as 1-2p more. But in essence the word comes from the French word ‘salon’ - a sitting room or lounge, which is why it was used for the smarter part of the bar but also larger, smarter and more specious cars.👍

I like the no rear window. - Improves the vibes and lighting. - Better backseat headroom. - The instant camera update when indicating is snappy and responsive, reducing your blindspots. - Unlike conventional rearview mirrors, regardless of where you point the mirror you'll get an unbiased view. Meaning you an point it directly at you with no negative effects. I see why it could be annoying and yeah, it reduces depth perception, but I think it does what it sets out to do well.

It allows the rear roll structure to be moved rearwards instead of above the rear passengers, which means a low roof line (for aero) without compromising rear headroom and a large glass roof. Many cars already compromise this with poor rear visibility

Consider how that would work out in a rear end collision. Removing the rear window is actually a safety feature in this design.

Not having a single button to switch between custom (user defined) and sport is dumb. They need to add that in a software update. One button, one click. I don’t want to have to navigate through screens. Ideally that button would be on the steering wheel but it’s too late for that. Also I agree about the key fob. It needs buttons. I mean most of the time I just use keyless entry but sometimes I need the buttons e.g. my partner is trying to get into the car and I’m still locking the front door, I can just click the button and she can get into the car. Seems cheap to remove the buttons. Also a new key fob makes the whole experience of owning the car nicer. I have an Audi and I like the key fob. It’s solid with metal parts and feels appropriate given the quality of the car. That fob that you showed us looked like a brick of plastic. Apart from those complaints though, that car looks fantastic. Good work polestar.

I’ve been to the HQ and they’re designed and developed in Sweden. Obviously still reliant on China for the battery however Volvo and polestar will have in house battery production soon. Thepolestar 3 will also be manufactured in California and the polestar 5 is being developed in the UK with lotus collaboration on the chassis and all the impressive driving dynamics they’re renowned for. So whilst Geely are Chinese, the entire dna from design to development is entirely polestar and then built up in China.

Oooof, that laggy screen immediately put me off. I hate this trend of *all* controls being touch screen now but I accept times are a changin' and it keeps manufacturing costs down to have all controls run through a single point. However if the controls are 100% touch screen then a laggy screen isn't just annoying, it's potentially dangerous. Anything that extends the period of time you're not looking at the road is an issue. Kinda hoping as time goes on there will be minimum lag time standard brought in for in-car UIs

[@antonioPaulino]

My fear is that when looking at the rear through the mirror, normally you see things at the distance they are which means you focus at them at a distance. I am farsighted which means with and LCD screen my eyes need to focus on the screen which is about half a meter or less away. I won't be able to focus on it :(

[@JeremyLawrence-imajez]

Yup, that was my thought exactly after testing one. You can't quickly glance in mirror, you have to look and consciously refocus, which doesn't sound like much, but it is jarring and feels/is markedly slower. To make things worse the mirror feels much closer to you than normal which exacerbates the issue if you are long sighted. The mirror in our Enyaq is significantly further away.

I test drove the new Polestar 2 single and dual motor this weekend and I had the same conclusion that the single motor was actually nicer to drive than the dual. However, I felt that both were pretty "boring" when it came to everyday driving. They just felt slow and sluggish. Sure, if you put your foot down, the dual motor would take off, but when just driving around like normal they both felt tired, with little excitement and fun. I also did not feel much difference between the single and dual motor in everyday city driving. They should definitely have a Sport mode button. I look forward to test drive the Polestar 4, but after seeing this I am not holding my breath.

[@mho0]

I have performance version and it is not slow or sluggish. Without performance pack accelaration pedal is tuned for 'long press' mode, which I also felt is too slow reaction or you need to press quite a bit to get power. But decision is to get normal or performance and then you get what you want.

Optimally synchronizing EV dual motors drives is essential to ensure the wheels turn at precisely the correct speed is crucial for a smooth and stable ride. Any mismatch in speed or torque between the wheels can lead to issues such as uneven tire wear, handling problems, and a generally uncomfortable driving experience. Also ensuring that the inner and outer wheels turn at different speeds during cornering is essential for the optimum performance of a vehicle.

EX30

Is it a firmer ride than the P2?

[@rubba6818]

No, it is both softer and sportier (faster) and you can select firm, mid or soft suspension on the screen.

[@MediaDevice01]

With all those cameras, does it have Sentry Mode or Dashcam mode?

[@effervescent_smegma-s1w]

Nope

I own the Polestar 2 performance pack (or my own version of it with a set of Heico coilovers and OZ wheels and Pilot Sport 4ses). I think so far its the only Polestar I like and want to keep. Other than not needing any bigger the performance/range bump is not worth the extra money. Also am not a fan of SUVs in general. So far I like the Polestar 4s over other EVs in its class (other than the Macan EV), but I don't see the making the monetary sacrifice to jump from my Polestar 2 to this. On top of liking the Polestar 2 looking more like an evil Volvo, this looks more like an appliance. I think I'd rather look for a second-hand Macan EV in the future though.

14:17 yeah I was never confident that something like this could be sporty. Its a daily, a commuter car. Will most likely have great road control but you wouldn’t buy this if you wanted a vehicle to he occasionally fun
