In case you get wind of this recent episode of Top Gear America and wonder if you should go to the trouble of watching it I will save you those 45 minutes of your life - Do Not Play:

There was very little "review" of the cars, nor video of their interiors or features. It was just three guys with three wildly different cars - a Polestar 2, a Porsche Taycan, and.... a Rolls-Royce Ghost that cost more than the other two combined? - going for a drive in the Puget Sound area. That's it. Most of the show is spent attempting to pass some papers to each other while The Stig tosses them around Bremerton Raceway (been there - great track, btw). Then they attempt an obviously contrived "race" that you might struggle to care about to the Space Needle.
But, any publicity is good publicity for Polestar! And I did learn one small thing - that the Taycan only has four seatbelts!
