Only days after releasing European pricing for the
all-new Polestar 2 electric vehicle, the Volvo-owned brand has announced how
much the Performance Pack will cost.
Yes, the Polestar 2 will offer a Performance Pack, despite
the fact that it comes standard with two electric motors producing a combined
300-kW and 660 Nm of instant torque delivered to
both axles. The Polestar 2 is therefore able to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 5 seconds.
For those who want more, the Performance Pack adds a
four-piston Brembo front brake setup, adjustable Öhlins dampers, and 20-inch
forged alloy wheels. According to Polestar, these upgrades enhance the EV’s
dynamics “for the ultimate in driver engagement.” Also part of the package are
gold seatbelts and valve caps.
The Performance Pack is priced at € 6,000
(US$ 6,600) in Germany, The Netherlands and Belgium, £ 5,000 (US$ 6,115)
in the UK, NOK 50,000 (US$ 5,470) in Norway and SEK 60,000 (US$ 6,065) in Sweden.
Pricing for North America and China will follow at a later date.
Factoring in the Polestar 2’s base price, a model
equipped with the Performance Pack will cost € 64,800 (US$ 71,240) in Germany and
£ 54,900 (US$ 67,190) in the UK.
