The Polestar 2 is a fairly cool automotive, and it is one that we’re very enthusiastic about — particularly now that we have learn Autoblog’s Friday report that Polestar 2 is getting a fairly critical efficiency package deal.
Being an EV, Polestar 2 is already promising to be fairly sprightly, so what would this elective efficiency package deal — one which’s been confirmed by Polestar itself — include? Properly, Polestar is a Swedish firm, so probably the most vital change could be to a set of adjustable shocks and dampers from Öhlins.
Öhlins has acknowledged that it will be supplying adjustable shocks for Polestar 2, which is incredible, however we hope they’re somewhat extra supple than the models fitted to the Polestar Engineered line of Volvos, which we discovered to be a bit stiff although not punishing.
Additionally on deck for the efficiency package deal are brakes from Brembo, cast wheels and softer, grippier tires. Autoblog additionally mentions that there might be a number of aesthetic modifications on performance-package-equipped automobiles just like the yellow-and-gold seatbelts we noticed in among the earlier press photographs of the automotive.
It is unclear right now if Polestar might be tweaking any of the electrical drivetrain’s efficiency traits, however with 408 horsepower already obtainable, we might forgive them for specializing in different elements of the automobile.
The oldsters from Polestar are allegedly nonetheless engaged on pricing for this package deal, however representatives for the corporate advised Autoblog that it will possible find yourself costing someplace within the $5,000 vary. Not low-cost, however not absurd for a automobile that will retail for $60,000-ish dollars in its higher trim ranges.
Polestar is planning on bringing the two to market as a 2021 mannequin however is at the moment embarking on a tour of the western United States with the automobile to get folks excited and possibly drum up some preorders.
