Hello,
I am in a conundrum with my decision as to whether to go with the Polestar 2 (PP) or Tesla Model 3 Performance. I regularly (once a fortnight) drive a distance of 198 miles to Head Office, and then return home (same distance) at the end of the week ...I can immediately ‘plug in’ and charge at HO when I arrive.. I then spend the week locally, so can charge up to full before the return leg. The commute to HO is almost entirely following the A1 and so will be at a maximum speed of 70, with some sections at 50 mph and usual traffic.. I guess the average speed would come out at about 60mph. The thing is.. I would prefer not to have to ‘charge’ on the 198 mile route to work.
Is this a realistic expectation for the Polestar2... given the recent EPA range certification ? I really want to like the Polestar, especially given the superior finish and cab experience.. but I am a little worried about driving 198 miles (x2) every 2 weeks and the battery range and longevity.
I would be grateful for any thoughts and advice.. ?
