Look at Auto Express and just about every car gets an award of some sort.

Surprised to see Polestar in 2nd place, I have only seen one on the road.

Polestar - there are dozens of them in this area. Nearly as popular as Teslas.....dooh!

+1. I’ve seen loads. Would much prefer a Polestar to a Tesla! ;)

I go to Oxford most weekends and have never seen so many EVs!

Cheers,

Me too. But until they can do 350+ (genuine) range and can charge 10%-80% in as quick as it takes to fill a petrol tank I’m not really interested. Also I’d hate to have to queue for hours for a charger as happened over Christmas.

400 real world winter range for me
Just driven 250 miles from Wiltshire to York in my GTS along the Fossway - 36 mpg...as you can imagine, it wasn't driven as it was intended :lol:

Polestar 2nd! I joined a Polestar Facebook group one year ago (I was seriously considering buying one). The number of lock-outs, fail to drive (or start in ICE terms), software bugs and other issues they report I'm surprised they are not in the worse ten. Owners regularly report having to wait between 15-120 mins for their polestars to decide they are drivable, going through full re-boots of the whole car's computer system. Add in support from inexperienced Volvo dealers and some very poor residual values I decided to drop Polestar from my list.

Are you sure you weren't pushing it? The GTS isn't in you signature list, which MY is it? Just so I can contrast with my S engine wise as I haven't managed to get 28 mpg from a tankful in the 5.5k miles since February. All my most economical figures are derived from tedious miles on motorways. :cry:
