Polestar 2 0-60 acceleration

Polestar 2 is a battery electric 5-door liftback produced by the Swedish automaker Volvo under its Polestar sub-brand. Polestar 2 comes with an all-wheel drive or a rear-wheel drive powertrain, both optimized for performance and driver engagement. The newly developed asynchronous front motor, permanent magnet rear motor, and silicon carbide inverter increase efficiency and torque, while the all-wheel drive system can disengage the front axle to further reduce energy consumption. Polestar 2's progressive power steering adapts to the car's speed, providing less feedback when moving slowly and more feedback when traveling faster. Drivers can also adjust the steering feel to their personal preferences, choosing the "soft" setting for navigating city streets, "standard" for highways, and "firm" for active driving on twisty roads. From September 2021 to March 2022, the Polestar 2 Single Motor Standard Range with a 64 kWh battery and 165 kW power, 224 hp was available in Europe. The battery for this version was made by CATL. The 64 kWh and 165 kW power version is available until now in China, as the only Single Motor Standard Range version. The Polestar 2 is designed to protect the battery pack during an impact and automatically disconnect it after a collision. On both front ends a SPOC (Severe Partial Overlap Crash) block is attached to mitigate the crash forces and prevent any material entering the occupant compartment. The Polestar 2 also features a centre airbag to protect from far-side impacts. The Polestar 2 obtained a 5-star 2021 Euro NCAP rating with a 92% score for protection of adults, 89% for protection of children, 80% for protection of vulnerable road users and 86% for safety assist. ‎@PolestarCars  #polestar #polestar2 #0to60mph #shorts #acceleration #explore #ev #electricvehicles
