The XC40 comes in at just over 200 miles of range at 208. The Polestar 2 falls short on its range. Polestar 2 was shooting for over 250. It comes in a 233. Car & Driver pointed out that when they tested the Polestar 2 in August they got even worse range. They were only able to get 190 miles of range. And with a price of $60k+ that’s a hard sell. The XC40 Recharge’s rumored starting price over $50k+ might make it easier to swallow, but not much. Both of these ranges relegate these to 2nd car status for me.
