In their own words
Great in lots of ways with some minor compromises. I had the Polestar optimisation added at Volvo which took the diesel engine up to 220bhp from 163bhp. So with the battery it's 290bhp all in. If you do a fair amount of trips under 25 miles, your MPG will be fab. On one tank I did 830m before refuelling at an average of 92mpg, with daily charging at home. Average over 10,000m is 72mpg.
+ Points :- MPG, £0 road tax, compact size, good cruiser, on-demand AWD, Pure EV driving, Perky overtaking in Power mode.
- Points :- Hard ride over potholed roads, engine thrashy at low speeds when it cuts in from cold. Not much else.
I'm getting softer sidewall tyres to see if it helps the ride. Also, worth getting a warranty just in case for the air con pump.
