Car changing is a big deal
Minimalist design meets maximum range in this high-tech, modern electric saloon that plays Tesla at its own game.
If you like the idea of a Tesla, but you aren’t sure about the products or the brand, then this is the car for you. Polestar is an offshoot of Volvo, and its 2 model combines the safety and style of a modern Volvo with ultra-modern electric powertrains and in-car tech. What’s more, you can snag one for less than £15,000 through Carwow.

Remember, you can buy a brand new or used car right here on Carwow. And you can also sell your car, too. We’re here to help you through every step of your car-changing journey.
Buy a used Polestar 2 from £14,500*

While a brand-new Polestar 2 will set you back around £45,000, you can save £30,000 by choosing a used example through Carwow. For less than £14,500, you can have a 2021, twin-motor car with a range of around 290 miles and more than 400hp. It also comes with a 360-degree camera, two-zone climate control and the brilliant Google-powered touchscreen infotainment system.
But why should you consider the Polestar 2?
Polestar’s design department hasn’t been around all that long, but it has come up with some cracking cars. The Polestar 1 was gorgeous, and the Polestar 3 and 4 models look brilliant too, but none has captured the imagination of customers like the 2. Muscular and minimalist, it’s every inch the modern executive saloon.

But the highlight is not the exterior. Instead, the cabin combines Volvo’s Scandinavian styling with more modern tech, including a smashing Google-powered touchscreen system. Using much the same tech as an Android phone, the system is intuitive and slick, and the inclusion of Google Maps navigation is a really useful one. Especially as it integrates battery range calculations to help you decide where to charge up.

Not that you’ll have to do that very often. The Polestar 2 has a choice of battery sizes, but they’re all pretty efficient and even the smallest last around 250 miles on a single charge, according to Polestar. And you’ll enjoy those miles, because the Polestar 2 is great to drive – it’s comfy on the motorway, has sharp handling in corners, and instant acceleration thanks to its electric powertrain.
Polestar 2 alternatives
Still not convinced? Here are some other options for you to consider:
- BMW i4: A classy choice that suits keen drivers, but the fastback shape means rear space is limited.
- Kia EV6: Striking to look at and good to drive, but practicality is only average for the class.
- Tesla Model 3: Great range and impressive tech mark it out, but quality issues remain.
