GOOD Genuinely good fun to drive if you have the space Very roomy and nicely finished interior Slightly less expensive than rivals from BMW and Mercedes

BAD Not quite as cosseting as rivals Interior shares a lot of parts and design features with its Volvo EX90 sibling We’ve yet to try a finished version of the multimedia and driver assistance features

    I saw this car at the Polestar store at the mall and I was underwhelmed by its space and comfort level. Compared to the Tesla Y, it feels very squished and less roomy in the interior. The pictures look great but very deceiving when in person.

      I agree, it feels like they messed up somewhere with the packaging. the back seat is very wide but not very deep and it feels like a short cabin compared to the size of the car

      Agreed. This will fail miserably at the price point. I was expecting more volvo xc90, but it’s not even really as big as the xc60. More like a slightly differently packaged xc40. I have no idea how they expect to get $80k for this thing. At slightly more expensive than the p2 I get it (under $60k), but at $80k no way!

        The XC90 is a huge car. I don’t expect to see something that large from Polestar.
