Experience reports

Polestar 2 driver, 6,214 miles driven · October 2026

Für mich geeignet, ich wollte kein SUV, aber elektrisch mit akzeptabler Reichweite. Das kann er. Allerdings ist die etwas knapp, wenn der Wohnwagen dranhängt, bei günstiger Strecke schaffe ich 200 km, plane aber alle 160 km einen Ladestopp. Da zeigt sich unschön, dass die Fahrzeug-Navigation von Google leider nicht die bevorzugten Kartenabieter bei der Ladeplanung berücksichtigt - und man bei umplanungen alle Ladestops verliert, wenn man nicht die einzelnen (nonch auf der Route befindlichen) Ladestopps einzeln ersetzt. Wenn ich auf der Autobahn die 130 überschreite, steigt der Verbrauch stark an (über 21 kWh/100 km), bei 110 kann ich das Teil mit 15 kWh fahren, aber irgendwie habe ich scheinbar noch zu günstige LAdemöglichkeiten.

WLTP = official manufacturer value (COMBINED). Real consumption is based on user data from EV Monitor. Consumption is influenced by many factors: speed, outside temperature, heating, air conditioning, seat heating and battery conditioning. Since statistics are weighted by kilometres driven, a single 200 km motorway trip in summer at 100 km/h has more influence on the average than ten short city trips.
