BST 230 announced

Guessing its a BST type special edition but with new motors and battery. Man I am GLAD I passed on the OG BST now. It would have been 2 weeks old at this point before they teased a new one LOL

Platform seems pretty limited for what it can do but a more wild P2 would be amazing. Drift mode, 500+ Hp like Kia EV6 GT.

Yeah seems like it's going to be a facelifted BST model.

They did mention at one point that the BST would be the most hardcore model yet
But did not expect them to release a new one this quick. The ink on the BST contracts have not even dried yet

Porsche and Lamborghini are making new limited editions all the time, with little or no difference.
Why should anybody feel bad?!
Polestar will make lots of different versions of there cars!
Buy the ones you like and can afford!

I am hoping for a RWD BST myself!
Please!

Porsche and Ferrari and Lambo absolutely do not release new versions of their limited editions just as the current models get delivered. There are at least a couple years between them. The closest one I can think of was the 2016 911R which was limited (but numbered) and 2018 GT3 Touring, but that was still 2 years between releases.
Not against special versions of the car, the more fun cars the better. But this timing and releasing the Facelift just before BST owners got their car must have been the most poorly timed model releases from any manufacturer ever.

Anyways I am no longer a stakeholder as I canceled my BST after the facelift was revealed. But if Polestar wants to build a brand following they should do better than this.

LOL so its the preface lift model that they are re releasing as BST? So this limited high performance version will be beaten by the facelift version. No leather option as usual, new seat material I think is the same as what comes standard in C40. Parts bin special basically.

Sage green looks awesome though

Such a rug pull, so its going to be a 2023 model year, same model year as the OG BST. Wouldn't trust Polestar's limited models again.. I guess only PS1 is going to be a truly unique car haha

well they can only get away with "limited editions" that aren't really limited for so long. Not as many people going to be fooled as last time. Saw on YouTube someone said BST stood for Bold Sales Tactics, Big Sticker Technology

Have two more pictures where you see it and it looks like a rear facing camera, like on the P4!

Also, seems like the rear window is blacked out or heavily tinted
