The Polestar 2 is the second electric vehicle from Polestar, the Swedish brand owned Chinese auto giant Geely – which also owns Volvo, Lotus and Zeekr. While the original and now defunct Polestar 1 was a sporty GT, the Polestar 2 is a more affordable four-door sedan with a hatchback. The Polestar 3 and Polestar 4, both SUV models are coming later this year.
There is a certain Volvo feel to the Polestar 2 and it’s easy to draw comparisons the Volvo C40, which is also a four-door EV. However, the price and styling also pit the Polestar 2 up against models like the Tesla Model 3 and BMW i4, though perhaps unfairly.
