Polestar 2 Two Year Update

Things are far from rosy in Polestar land! Surprised not to have heard more about this. (I'm not sure links will work, but…) https://fortune.com/europe/2024/02/29/polestar-volvo-geely-bankruptcy-loan-funding-thomas-ingenlath/ https://finance.yahoo.com/news/ev-startup-gets-cash-infusion-160110724.html

"Meandering"? But… but there are no meander bends in this video, unlike the last Polestar update!

I can't say I've looked at the depreciation on my Kia... I don't want to know, and we tend to drive cars into the ground anyway. Heck, we still have a 2001 Civic that we haven't gotten rid of yet!

Does Polestar have a buyback/trade-in program that wouldn't leave you holding the bag for all that cost? Might be in their interest to have more newer versions of vehicles in the hands of committed owners + an opportunity to refurb their older models with better battery technology, newer software, etc. (Really enjoyed the video.)

Wow, that depreciation tho. Man, so sorry. If only you could sell it in Europe, even the cheapest ones are like 35k and up.

Heh, I did the math. 77k miles over 2 years means your average speed for that time has been 4.39 mph.

Perhaps I have a simple mind, but that "changing directions completely" joke got me good.

“77 kilomiles” I mean….technically there is absolutely nothing incorrect about that but to quote Marge Simpson, there’s something about flying a kite at night that’s so unwholesome.

Would you want to buy a new Corolla?

When I see Robert has posted a video, I get excited, like a puppy getting belly rubs. 🤣

Don't do the corolla like that! Lol
