Polestar 3 Previewed

Who's putting down a deposit? I think I will. By the time it's out, my wife's 2018 XC60 should be due for an upgrade.

I will be along with the EX90, deliveries should start by early summer (best case)

I'm thinking hard about it, I'll watch the unveiling shortly here, see if there's anything mind blowing or not.

I already have a half dozen EV SUVs on pre-order. I probably won't put down on the 3 even though my 2 is great.

Looking forward to this launch event. I'll be putting a deposit down regardless if I want to keep or flip.

What others are you eyeing up now? I swear, you're the Pokemon of EVs

Admittedly, it was a slight exaggeration, but, R1S, Ocean One, Blazer SS, and the Canoo. My wife wants to take a serious look at the I.D. Buzz that we don't know a whole lot about the US spec yet, but I think we'd probably rather consider the Polestar 4 over the 3 size wise.

What a lackluster offering. $84k for up to 300mi. This was speculated to have 375 or closer to 400 in the range category.

Can't seem to put down a deposit. Oh well.

The base dual-motor all-wheel drive variant expected to start at $83,900 will have 489 horsepower and 620 lb-ft (840 Nm), allowing it to accelerate to 60 mph (96 km/h) in 4.9 seconds. Polestar will also offer a $6,000 Performance Pack that will boost the two motors’ combined output to 517 horsepower and 671 lb-ft (910 Nm), which drops the time needed to sprint to 60 mph to 4.6 seconds; both versions have a limited top speed of 130 mph (209 km/h).

For the dual-motor model, the estimated range is around 300 miles and for the Performance it will drop to around 270 miles.

0-60 in 4.6 seconds for 90k, meh.
Only 3500 lbs towing

Meh is an understatement LOL

I really expected it to be more performant than the 2. They kept trying to boast about it before releasing the specs.

I'm very interested in the Blazer, too, especially since I may be able to get employee pricing (word still out if it qualifies on the Blazer), but passed on the Ocean. I just wasn't ready to pull the trigger when they wanted, and they seemed almost too hungry for the deposits.

Canoo is interesting, but I am not sure how practical it really will be. I think one of the guys in my neighborhood works for them, I keep seeing one parked outside his house. Keep hoping I can catch him when I'm walking past.

Interior same as P2? Those performance & range numbers? Meh is the only word.

Almost 100k once you get the upgraded seats and P pack.
