You can see in the app if your car has the performance upgrade. Click on the car icon an then on specifications. In section 03 you will see if your car has the upgrade.

It used to show this, no longer does.

I have a 2023 model year and I got the new emissions sticker with my other door stickers (which I did not install.) It is silly that an “emissions” sticker is needed and then needs to be updated but I guess it’s the regulations.

What does the new sticker look like? I see an emissions sticker, but it doesn't mention any power specs.

I’m not home for a week but it looks similar to the one that’s already there. I can’t remember the difference. Perhaps someone can take a snapshot for you. I’ve never looked at it since I put it in a long time ago.

No such luck, there's no other stickers under there other than the ones from the factory. Thanks for your help and suggestions!

Looking back over previous posts on this topic (but different thread), I found this from a Swedish Polestar owner:

You can clear the cache, but if you clear the “data”, for whatever reason, the app will be gone. At that point, you would have to contact Polestar. I accidentally cleared the “data” on a 3rd party app, and it was gone. Luckily for that, I only had to re-download that 3rd part app again.

I don’t think you will be able to do that with the performance app, but will have to work with Polestar to get them to re-load it for you. Good luck.

It’s also possible that the launch tab is gone, but you still have the performance app? That can be verified by using a device like Draggy to measure your times. if you do have the performance app, your 0-60 times with > 75% SOC, on level ground and moderate temps should be 4.1-4.2 sec. Without the performance app, you’ll see something like 4.4-4.5 sec.

@highpks I cleared data and cache, now my launch tab is gone in the performance app.

Oh thanks for sharing that. I'm glad I didn't clear anything after finding out that I can't uninstall the app.

Part of me wondered if my prior 0-60 times were stored in there, and possibly available as further proof that I had the Performance Upgrade and Launch tab at one point. Android Automotive is so locked down though, I don't see any way to dig into that stored data myself.

BTW: still waiting to hear something conclusive from Polestar, but they have been checking in regularly to assure me that they are still investigating. So I've got that going for me

Get the Beta (not Alpha) CSV app. It is CarStatsViewer, and you have to apply for a test group. While driving, it shows instantaneous power in kW being used. On my car, before the upgrade at 90% battery, it showed just nder 320kW (maybe 316 or 319, I forget), and after the upgrade it showed a peak of 368kW or so. Even at 35% battery it now shows over 325kW which unmodified cars don't get with a fully charged battery.
That, or take it to a drag strip, I did that both before and after upgrade as well.

I was removed from my test group so boss I only have access to the new Alpha version :/

 

[chazglenn3]

Oh crap. I hope I didn't get removed too....when did that happen?

re-ask maybe? if removed, the installed app still works, right? I haven't checked if I'm still "in", but I have both versions installed. The Alpha doesn't update kW usage well enough for me. Oh well. Still amazing work by those developers in the first place.

I didn't notice until yesterday when I set up a new profile on my car and had delayed a bunch of apps to reinstall them (I was trouble-shooting) and clicking on the download link in the group gave me an error about not being able to access the app and to make sure I was logged in with the email that was given access (which I was)

 

[M1STER_GR1M]

I was in loebse's test group, #10

The app works as long as you still have it, you just wouldn't be able to re-download it because you don't have access to the link.

I'll ask again when I'm off work, good idea

 

[chazglenn3]

Whew! I still have it installed and working. I am also in group #10....or was!

 

[M1STER_GR1M]

Nice! I'm not sure why my access was revoked, but I'm gonna reach out again to get back on it. Thanks for the update!

 

[M1STER_GR1M]

Problem solved! I wasn't removed from the group, I was just using an old link to an outdated release version. Loebse gave me an updated link, and it worked like a charm!

 

[chazglenn3]

What is the latest version? I probably need to upgrade...

I'll have to double check next time I'm in the car, but I think it's 0.26.2 now

Just looked, I'm on 0.26.2.0002
