REVIEW: The Polestar 2 has been refreshed for 2023, with a switch to rear-wheel drive bringing a boost to efficiency
The answer to the second question is a more equivocal ‘yes?’. Much of what we wrote about the front-wheel-drive single-motor 2 still applies, including the overall summary that it’s ‘good to drive’ rather than ‘fun to drive’. It has always had a surfeit of grip and traction, alert traction control, tight body control and little if any steering corruption. None of that changes with the switch to rear-wheel drive.
The interior stays the same, which means it’s very Volvo, but with slightly more interesting materials. After the Ioniq 6’s curiously perched driving position, it is remarkable how normal it is in the Polestar. Space in the rear is nowhere near as generous, but still adequate, while having a hatchback makes the world of difference to the boot’s usability, if not the overall volume.
In short, Polestar hasn’t messed with the 2’s looks but just made it better. Keep those not-facelifts coming.
