2022 Polestar 2 Trims Comparison

2022 2 trim level differences

The Polestar 2 is a four-door compact sedan with a hatchback rear cargo area. There aren't any trim levels, but it does come in one of two configurations: the Long Range Single Motor in front-wheel drive and the Long Range Dual Motor with all-wheel drive. Both versions come with a single-speed automatic transmission. There are also several optional packages to help you tack on extra features as desired.

Long Range Single Motor
The entry-level Polestar 2 is well equipped with these features:

  • Adaptive LED headlights
  • LED rear light bar
  • 19-inch wheels
  • Single electric motor (231 horsepower, 243 lb-ft of torque)
  • Front-wheel drive
  • EPA-estimated 270 miles of range
  • Heated front seats with four-way power lumbar support
  • 11.15-inch center touchscreen
  • Dual-zone automatic climate control
  • Four USB-C ports
  • Eight-speaker audio system

Loads of safety equipment comes standard on every Polestar 2, including:

  • Forward collision warning (alerts you of a possible collision with the car in front)
  • Forward collision mitigation (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Lane keeping with steering assist (steers the Polestar 2 back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)
  • Front and rear parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible in front of or behind the vehicle when parking)

Some of the optional packages that you can select include:

  • Plus Pack
    • Front seat cushion extension
    • Wireless smartphone charging station
    • Heated rear seats and steering wheel
    • 13-speaker premium audio system
    • Panoramic sunroof
  • Pilot Pack
    • Blind-spot warning with steering support (automatically steers the car back into its lane if you try to change lanes while a car is in the vehicle's blind spot)
    • Rear cross-traffic alert (warns you if a vehicle behind you is about to cross your path while you're in reverse)
    • Rear collision warning and mitigation (applies the brakes automatically to avoid an imminent collision with an object behind the vehicle)
    • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the Polestar 2 and the car in front)
    • Surround-view camera (gives you a top-down view of the Polestar 2 and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
    • Active bending headlights
    • Cornering LED foglights

Long Range Dual Motor
The more powerful of the two Polestar 2 models comes with the same standard features as the single-motor version. The biggest difference is the power on hand:

  • Dual electric motors on the front and rear wheels (408 hp, 487 lb-ft)
  • All-wheel drive
  • EPA-estimated 249 miles of range

Besides the packages available on the single-motor Polestar 2, the dual-motor also offers:

  • Performance Pack
    • 20-inch wheels
    • Performance tires
    • Adaptive suspension dampers
    • Brembo four-piston brakes with ventilated and drilled front discs
    • Gold exterior and interior accents

Which 2022 2 trim does Edmunds recommend?

The Long Range Single Motor seems the best fit for the majority of Polestar 2 shoppers since it has the same standard features and more electric range than the other model. It's comfortable and quiet inside and offers plenty of helpful equipment in two optional packages. Take a look at the Pilot Pack for its bundle of driver safety aids.
