looks like crap. Put it on and immediately regretted it. My partner came to tell me that someone stuck a white post it note on the front of my car and now I can’t unsee it.

I guess it’s an opinion. And that is why Polestar shouldn’t have released this on the US market you can’t handle subtle understated scandi design 🤣😂

Guess what, you didn’t have to apply it, and you can take it off. But instead you choose to broadcast 🤷‍♂️

I think it looks just as it should!
Looks great!
Enjoy the great pedalmapping! That is the best part!

In my head, that logo was always light brushed aluminum with black debossed text (and should be). But a close up of the 2023 sticker is the same in the review video @6:39. Hi Kris, if you’re here, enjoy the reviews.

For me it's not about aesthetics. I love the idea and the look of it. And I was excited to put one on my car once I get the upgrade. But it's quality control. A pixellated sticker that looks like you bought it off ebay is not acceptable for any manufacturer. In fact, you may be able to find a knock-off that is actually a better quality print.

I hope they fix this before I get mine.

Polestar: "Execution really isnt our thing"

This is why I had 2 companies show up, at the same time, to tow my car for a bad OTA yesterday and both left without the car because neither brought the appropriate equipment

Hi,
Mine is same colors and it is a performance but I don't have the patch. How can I buy/find it?
Thanks

 

[gerdami]

Can I buy the sticker separately ? 😇

This sticker makes no sense. The "Polestar Engineered" badge has been used to indicate Polestar performance enhancement to certain Volvos. So now we get a sticker indicating that the Polestar has been engineered by Polestar. I knew that. It has no obvious connection to the current performance upgrade and looks cheap. Like a focus group reject from the original Volvo effort.
I have no problem at all with the door stickers which are fully in tune with the minimalist design style of Polestar. The grill sticker, on the other hand, looks awful (imho). They could have done so much better.

What’s the point of a response like this? Rude

Unfortunately, there are a couple of people on here that have an almost depressing lack of tact.

True, mine hasn't arrived yet, opinion might change once it's actually in front of me.

In the accessories shop they sell these in either white of black. I think the black might be better.

At least pre-covid there were places that made badges etc to spec, you could in theory have one made in brushed stainless, bit those are more cost effective if you do a group buy. We did that with a Mercedes Forum I used to actively admin a bunch of years ago.

Mine just came in the mail. I’m going to throw a digital caliper on it and see about maybe 3D printing something. Probably in white PET or ABS with small black in-laid PS logo.

OEM sticker goes on for now.

The OEM Polestar badge for Volvo's looks better... I wonder if it would fit on the front, or if it could be modified to fit?

I posted on the other thread. I'm probably going to leave mine off. If you look close, it's not a great print job. Pixellated font, looks like they churned them out at 150dpi on a cheap laser printer.

Unacceptable

Dimensions of OEM sticker:

Thickness (Z): 2.4mm

Looks even worse on void. I took mine off again about 10 minutes later!

You mind putting the badge in an envelope and sending it to Belgium?
Mine is Magnesium

 

[GeneJockey]

That’s bush league for Polestar to print such poor quality badges. The one that came on my MY23 Performance looks fine, but I would love to see how a paint color match would look (Thunder for me), or black with white or gold lettering

My Snow coloured car with the Performance pack came with the badge already on the front grill and it looks as if it should be there....
My dilemma is.... Should I stick the one that came with the enhanced power upgrade on the other side of the grill... rear boot (trunk) lip.. or perhaps the roof.... Decisions decisions.... Is this topic for real.... You gets your badge and you stick it where you want... Or perhaps just throw it away!

 

[david.charles.coy]

Sticker does look like trash and im pretty disappointed and confused why I would put it on my car. If I was an outsider looking at my car, I would probably just assume the owner of the car was just some cheap bastard that bought or made a knockoff sticker and stuck it on the car because I could not afford the upgrade. it looks so cheap it just looks like a fake.

I will probably put it on my mom's Subaru as a joke.

Guernica by Picasso is also horribly pixelated. I'm sure anyone on Fiverr could do it nice and sharp using Adobe Illustrator or Affinity Designer.

Seriously guys/girls if you want fake perfection then you should go for Lexus, or other taste and characterless brands.
