I Bought A Used Polestar 2! Full Tour, Specs, And CPO Buying Process

Hey Max, congratulations on your new to you Polestar 2. This car has been on my radar since it came out but I have been hesitant to pull the trigger on one due to concerns about repairs when something breaks with the limited service centers. Keep us updated on getting that plastic replaced and any other servicing issues you run into as you rack up the miles.

I know this video is about EVs, but I'd really like to know more about the Canyon road bikes in the garage!

Congrats. I got the sister car, a CPO 2022 Volvo XC40 Recharge, a month ago. I do charge on 120 V at the in-laws but agree L2 is essential for daily/ weekly driving if L1 can not support your use case. L1 is fine for some.

Congratulations

Bravo, Max. Nice choice. 🤙🏼

The most underrated PS2 color! Love the moon in person, but it doesn't photographn well. Get the Performance upgrade ASAp! Love it.

Congrats Max! Finally another Tuber who can provide deep-dive reviews of the PS2. Looking forward to more content from your journey. Yay!

Does it have back up camera?

TFTC and congratulations on the new car

Congrats on your new EV!!!

Congrats, Max. It's always exciting to get a car you love, and you obviously love this one. Regarding the frunk, I don't care much about a frunk, but I would like a spare tire. I wish EV manufacturers would just make the frunk a place for some kind of spare tire plus jack and tools.

Congrats on your Polestar 2 Max. I bought a 22 LRDM back in February. My first EV. Loving it so far. I've already done a trip from Austin to Phoenix and back. No issues.

I'm curious if you'll be hauling your bikes with the Polestar. I plan on hauling my mountain bike and kayaks on the factory roof rack.

What happened to the A pillar on passenger side?! And people talk about Tesla build quality lol.

Hi, CPO is for me a abbreviation for Charge Point Operator, also often in text and legislative letters from governments and in standards.

We love our P2! We got the basic seats and we though they felt very nice, then again we were used to basic Honda and Nissan seats so.........sliding scale I guess lol. The basic is a textile, the WeaveTech your referring to is what you get with the Plus pack and DON'T upgrade to the Nappa leather with ventilation so there's 3 levels of materials.

Looking forward to hearing about how Polestar handles the A pillar trim piece. I had the same thing happen to me on a Polestar rental. I also own a Polestar.

You paid way too much as far as I can tell. You can get one near me for well under 40K.

Great Max, you have a EV that works, and now you can bring us more North American Polestar content that we are short in North America! Looking forward to your road trips, charging experiences etc!

Congrats!

Congrats 🎉

$46 000 with those seats is a bargain

Looks like everyone is throwing cash around willy nilly buying these fancy new cars, Lucid, Taycan, new 3, and now this? Ok

Very nice. There are a couple of these around my way. Greenwich. With the performance pack it really makes them stand out. Good taste Max🙏👊

I enjoyed watching your video. You’re a natural. Looking forward to learning more from your videos. Thanks for taking the time to make this.

Nice car choice and spec. Regarding charging - It's usually cheaper to have a lower amperage circuit installed. I went with a 30 amp, which allows me to charge at 24 amps. Plenty for my needs, and I avoided an expensive panel upgrade.

Awesome walkthrough of the polestar Max, congrats on your first EV and owning your first car!! As a tesla cult member, I appreciate your balanced review and comparison to the 3 and Y! So many people just 💩 on tesla really unfairly when they get some other EV, but your critiques and praises are very fair! Enjoy the Polestar man :)

Max, until you get the home wired for a dedicated 240 volt EV circuit. There's a couple of other options you could use. There's a way to combine two 120 volt circuits.Or if the dryer is close enough, there's a few ways to use that circuit.

BTW, it seems like you got a great deal on it..... And I look forward to the post about it.... Congrats...

Hmmm. Made in China car ?

Congrats Max! My 2022 Etron Chronos came with an inflatable spare tire.

I’ve been using the Vevor charger in my garage to charge my Rivian for almost a year and despite its less than 250 price it has been nothing but excellent

Made in CHII NNNA

Why would you young kids buy a stupid 4 door sedan. When I was your age I would be embarrassed to drive something like that. I would drive sports cars like Corvettes Camaros Porsches Mustangs. Actually I still do at 65 except now I drive my Huracan every day....Kids these days...SMH

I think it's a beautiful car I really like it!

You really can just open the door when you stop and it will put the car into park. Love that too.

Life will be MUCH easier once you get a home charger. Right now, home charging MAKES an EV AWESOME! And knowing that you can trek down Interstates is, well, a step in the right direction. ICE vehicle are still the "sure thing", but that's gonna' change -- and hopefully soon!

Well done Max. Great choice!

So much better than Kyle's Twizy!

Why not a XC40 Recharge? Uses they seem similarly priced. But you may have more features in the P*2.

Beautiful Polestar. Congratulations!!

I like the car but I hate that big Bulky middle console

You need to wrap the piano black in the center console!

I'm looking at buying a pre owned Polestar within the next year. (I thought about leasing bc I would keep an ICEV and I should stay under the annual mileage). I think the Google Android Automotive is very easy to use and teh integration with Google Maps is seemless and I love the map on the gauge cluster. I've rented Polestars before and I love the way they drive. It's a much better experience than Tesla 3 or Y to me. Still looking to rent a Mach E to see how it feels. VW ID.4 is on my list as well.

Great content, would love to hear your thoughts in the P2 when you've spent more time with your ride..

Hey Max,

I’m interested in getting a used polestar 2 later this year.
I know polestar offers free two year charging, I’m wondering if the used polestars2 still qualify for the free charging?

2021 model for $39k? Recommended?

Polestar 2 CPO prices near me are just disconnected from reality. I'd buy one from a Polestar Space if they were slightly more expensive than a non-CPO, but it's like $10,000 more...

Absolutlly stunning car. I own its brother - XC40 - but I hope to buy Polestar 2 one day. :)

I own a 2022 P2. Zero issues, and no more oil changes.

You can see these selling used, two years old for $25,000.
