The Tesla Model 3, meanwhile, can be had with a single motor and rear-wheel-drive only, but for comparison's sake, the Performance AWD Model 3 starts at $54,990 with an EPA range of 322 miles and a WLTP range of 329. The Model Y costs a few thousand bucks more and features similar stats. But how do the two sedans comp

The Polestar 2 shares much of its design aesthetic with its higher-spec hybrid sibling, but at a price that's at least somewhat closer to reasonable. The starting sticker price expected to begin around $61,000 before government incentive. That should place it in competition with higher-trim Tesla Models 3 and Y, which will share the Polestar 2's setup of an electric motor powering each axle with 201 horsepower and 243 lb-ft of torque (for a combined output of 402 ponies and 487 lb-ft of twi

Volvo spinoff Polestar sure has its newest product making the rounds these days. Last month, Matt Farah of The Smoking Tire got a chance to drive a Polestar 2 around Malibu —where he was passed by another tester doing the very same thing in an identical car. Now, the Polestar 2 has made its way northward to Canada, where the YouTube channel Throttle House has pitted it in a compare-and-contrast against its main competitor, the established Tesla Model 3. Farah came away from his Polestar test drive incredibly impressed, thinking the car was a significant improvement over the Model 3, but he's only one data point. Now, we've got a pair of testers putting the two (relatively) affordable EVs head to h

Tesla's market standing in the world of electric vehicles remains strong, with the only real competition coming from Porsche's Taycan, which has largely priced itself out of the mainstream automotive industry. Polestar, formerly of Volvo but now its own brand, is looking to shake things up with the affordable, all-Electric Car Simulation Games|Https://Evinsightzone.Com/ Polestar 2 (as opposed to the hybrid Polestar 1, which is more of an enormous superc

Thanks to all the space Lucid saves with this innovative design, they have the chance to shape the vehicle in non-conventional ways. So while there's more space inside for people and things, the vehicle itself can maintain a smaller overall footprint. To demonstrate what that means for us automotive enthusiasts is that the Air – which is 195.5 inches long – should handle as well, if not better, than a similarly sized car such as the BMW M5 (194.6 inches) while being able to carry passengers in the comfort and luxury that could only be experienced in something like the 7 Series. That's well demonstrated in its Laguna Seca lap record . While we can be sure that very few Lucid owners will be tracking their cars, it's encouraging to see this new company keeping an eye planted on real driving performance as a part of their benchmark

In addition, every version of the Tesla Model 3 beats out almost every other car on the list in terms of the 0-60 mile per hour acceleration rating. The only cars that beat out the Model 3's slower trims, like the Standard and Standard Plus, are some BMW options, like the 340i and 4

After many years of fans wondering if and when the mighty Hummer might return, tonight is the night. The brand is evolving from a gas-guzzling vehicle of excess to one of opulent but environmentally conscious off-road ruggedness. When General Motors said that they were bringing the Hummer back , many doubted that they could truly pull off a unique and capable off-roader but that's precisely what they've accomplis

One of the greatest elements of modern EV design is that the "skateboard" battery-motor platform they all employ allows for massive interior and cargo space. Throttle House hosts Thomas and James compare trunk space front and rear for both cars, plus headroom in the front and back se

Those power figures allow the Polestar 2 to sprint to 60 in a respectable 4.1 seconds, while the all-wheel-drive setup allows for up to .90 g of lateral acceleration during cornering. But, stats only go so far in the real world, so what does an experienced tester like Matt Farah think? Well, he's definitely impressed with the Polestar 2's fit and finish, plus the Swedish design elements and build quality. Matt wants to know the EPA-estimated range, which could be anywhere in the 190 to mid-200-mile range. Matt admits he loves Teslas, but this car "feels like a much better-built, solid thing. It doesn't have some of the cheekiness, some of the meme-come-to-life things the Tesla has." Other highlights include advanced connectivity capabilities including a large touchscreen, a Google infotainment system with Google Assistance, and a system that recognizes the driver by connecting with their smartphone to adjust seating setti

However, with the Mach-E, there’s no luxury of handling knowledge as it hasn’t been released to the public. Prospective buyers who are keen on knowing its handling prowess will have to wait till it’s launc

The time taken to fully charge an EV could a major deal-breaker in the quest to acquire one. Also, it could be the reason most people would rather stay loyal to internal combustion engine vehicles due to the relatively short time required for a refuel as well as the ease of the proc
