If this is true, would love to see the Standard Range Single Motor in the US. This would be a big ask but it would be nice to see.

I'm questioning the power numbers for both the std. LRDM and the Performance Pack equipped one. Both have fairly dramatic increases in torque, but no change in HP, and no change, or actually slower for the std LRDM, 0-60 times?!

600 km range and 220kW on the rear axle will be a great car

II still want 440kWh AWD though...

Euro specs… so it‘s 0-62, and that number improved by .1s actually for the LRDM.

Had finally settled on placing an order for a C40 AWD after it received the range bump… will now hold back a few more days to see pricing for the upgraded PS2…

With 360, BLIS, and park assist included in the standard package, the base model makes a very enticing offering with pretty much everything you need in a modern vehicle. Maybe add in ACC. Pilot assist kinda sucks at the current iteration

...and possibly wrong

Not to forget 205kw charging speed (peak) and 28mins 10-80% for the large battery.

Let‘s hope Pixel LED is coming back, too…

 

[MrKuub]

With the added standard equipment, what difference does the Pilot pack make at this point? Only the ADAS systems?

 

[idka]

Hm.... will there be an option to add that 4kwh battery to the existing models?

As an OTA update in 'the spring'. 😝

Range/charging is basically the only relative downside of my Polestar vs some of the competition. This is absolutely a refresh worth waiting for!

Only real complaints i have about my no pack sm is that its not RWD and doesn't have 360 cameras (and they are barely complaints for a commuter). A bit sad the new base model address both complaints… just have to remind myself that new models are always inevitable and almost always better

I'm definitely a little annoyed at this having only got my M23 model LRDM Pilot Lite Plus back in October, ordered in April. I had to talk myself in to it knowing the efficiency and range was low compared to some other similar EVs and the charging speed was slower. This update to the LRDM addresses all of those things that bother me. And I know I love my MY23 LDRM, it's the best car I've owned, and I don't do many drives long distance enough where the range is an issue. But still - knowing it's drawbacks, and knowing they've now been addressed, bugs me. Also, if the Pixel headlights return in a full-featured Pilot Pack again, that'll be an extra kick.

The SM top speed being increased from 99mph to 127mph seems wrong as it’s now matching the DM.

 

[natman316]

Oh man 205kw charging and 10-80 in under 30 mins would be huge

 

[DS9]

Seems like LRDM version has a battery and range upgrade option.

 

[CQP*2]

The SM top speed being increased from 99mph to 127mph seems wrong as it’s now matching the DM.

Could be due to higher power and torque that has allowed for a taller reduction gear.
Lower revolutions = lower kw/h consumption, hence increased WLTP range in the SRSM with same 69kwh pack.

Any info on the 82kwh battery pack using CATL prismatic cells and their configuration as opposed to the current LG pouch cells?

My handover is booked for the first of next month, after waiting 6 months for my LRDM I really didn't need this news.
