Why cant Volvo give us super coupes more often 😩

[MoneyShift]

God bless the fine folks at Polestar. This 1 was there when I was picking up my 2, and I almost fell over. What a thing.

[cypher]

WTF?! Why aren't they making a ton of these? This is EXACTLY the electric car I want....

[elikirkwood]

I drive a van for work and some days Ill put 5 miles on it, and others I've done over 200 just running around to various calls. Having A hybrid option like this as a van would be fantastic for both my companies fuel costs (our vans average 12mpg) as well as my sanity driving because it would reduce noise and make it much easier to get to speed

[MukisaSS]

I personally would take the polestar 2 since I want a four-door but this seems fun to drive. Great video Tedward!

[TDPEquinox]

I think a plug-in hybrid makes the most sense for everyone, not just enthusiasts. We haven't figured out how to make full EVs work on a massive scale yet, either from an infrastructure standpoint, or an environmental one. The impact we have on the environment goes beyond what is spat out of the exhaust; the manufacturing and mining takes a toll as well.

I hope plug-in hybrids will bridge the gap between the two extremes until we can scale a more environmentally viable product either via breakthroughs in battery tech or some other method of energy.

I absolutely adore this thing, just classy and drop dead stunningly gorgeous at the same time

Driven both the Polestar 1 and 2. The 1 is very unique. Incredible power, kinda reminds me of the Bentley Conti GT. The Polestar 2 is better as a daily though. Still extremely capable and rapid.

This will be my first Plug-in hybrid vehicle.

Nice job with your vids as always Tedward.

Wow that’s gorgeous, I wish more people were buying coupes 😢

[edalder]

This Polestar isn't just a technology showcase, it is so beautiful. Buy one and put it on display.

[Adamlllllllllllljjjljljjjjj]

Great video, This car is honestly my dream car. I don’t care what the M850i can do or other rivals for that matter, I like this polestar as it is unique, it goes about its ways with a completely different approach. Although hardly anybody is talking about the polestar 1 at the moment, they will in 30-40 years time when it is a piece of beautiful history

[toonie-ni]

fell in love with this car when the first pictures came out but knowing its twincharged takes it to another level

[Mrboyboy]

Awesome review as always! Really great speech at the end, appreciated that

[nutleysports]

This is a great competitor for the Lexus LC500H and they both definitely are future classics!

[sirflaps]

I want some more coupes from Volvo and Polestar

[DominikDoesGaming]

Just thought about if tedward had uploaded a new video and then i saw this video😊

[RothBeyondTheGrave]

I'm not anti EV, I'm anti leasing forever subscription based dealer software required for literally everything.
If you're an enthusiast & you make less than $80-100k ish a yr, there's no automotive future for you. Sell those tools & save up for those subscriptions & dealer rates!

[danky-_-stanky]

For some reason I think this is in the top 5 most beautiful cars ever made 🤷🏽

[Mike-rkpx]

Polestar needs to make a sports car with pop-up headlights, they should be able to create something gorgeous if they can create a coupe and a 4-door that look gorgeous.
