This includes Pilot Assist driver assistance aids, Adaptive Cruise Control, Emergency Stop Assist, Rear Collision Warning and Mitigation, and LED front fog lights with cornering function. Furthermore, the dual motor Polestar 2 features a rear-biased drivetrain with a new, asynchronous rear motor, increasing the overall power output to 421 hp and increasing estimated range up to 444 kilometers[2]. The new front electric motor can be disconnected when not required, further enhancing efficiency and extending range.
