I assume this is not possible?

I was on the app yesterday and it said 20c. I was surprised but thought "lovely, I don't need to pre-cool the car".

I got in and the internal temperature was 29c. Obviously the app is telling me the outside temperature. Presumably just pulling data from the internet based on the cars location.

But I don't care about the outside temperature as much as the inside. I want to know if I need to cool/heat the cabin. Or maybe think the car is going to heat/cool bit it actually does the opposite because I can't see if the car is less than or more than 22c.

Whyyyyyyyy Polestar, whyyy!

I have a LRSM PS2 2023

Since i live in dubai, uae. having external air in the cabin is a bad idea however the aircondition itself switches off the internal air circulation and changes it into external air and then i have to change it to cabin air again manually myself.

Is there a permanent fix around this? P.s i dont use auto mode and i keep Eco mode off.

So I have a Nissan Leaf SLl+ that is in the process of a buyback from Nissan.

I have been looking at the polestar 2, I know about the launch edition issues but from what I understand they have been corrected with warranty and software updates.

So what is maybe something that isn't widely known that you people in the community could tell me that would either make me stay away from a polestar 2, or make me really want one.

Sorry if this has been asked before

They have a pretty decent campaign going on in Norway for the MY27. Prime-package for free, winter tyres included and 1,99% interest rate for 3 years.

My only worry is that I will like the new redesigned gen 2 better than the current design.

I really like how the ps2 currently looks. I know the new design share the headlight design with ps4. Which I’m not really a fan of.

Only 2 weeks left of the campaign, so I need to decide fast.

Would it make sense to buy a used 2022-2023 Polestar 2 in this current situation? With Polestar pulling out of the US market I’m worried about how I would get it serviced or undergo routine maintenance. I also plan on driving between Seattle and Spokane semi-frequently so would it make sense as a road trip vehicle? I’ve been eyeing up this car for a few years now and always wanted one but I’m just not sure if it’s the right choice with how I’d plan on using it… I just want a cool, muscly looking EV sedan 😭

I was charging.

Oh, I unplugged and it went away.

-- So, that's just a charging error? And it could be the car or the charger?

It's in the API, so it's presumably a simple OTA update.

Lots of comments on here saying 22c is just great. Sure it is most of the time. But there are plenty of situations where I'd prefer a different temperature.

1. Playing sport in the heat, maybe I want it cooler

2. I just want to defrost and take the chill out of it, I don't need 22c. Maybe I'm only going a mile or two anyway.

3. Maybe I'm coming in from the cold outside and have lots of layers I don't want to faff about taking off and 22c would be too hot. Or the other way, I'm going somewhere in the cold so want to wear my coat in the car for when I get out.

4. Maybe it's hot out but the cars parked in a cool spot so the heaters come on instead of cooling.

The reasons don't really matter, just give us some choice.

I stumbled upon this mac app for polestar owners, "Polaris", in a danish polestar facebook group, thought it would be worth sharing. I've been using it for a couple of days. neat little menu bar app.

Hi everyone,

I bought my Polestar 2 a couple of months ago (second hand, early 2023 LRSM model). I've been loving it so far, but one issue I have noticed is that when I initially get in and the fans come on, there is a bit of a musty/sour smell that comes through until the AC kicks in, then it is fine.

It isn't a smell that is present in the car without the fans on, and does clear up quite quickly once AC kicks in (within a minute or two). I have also replaced the cabin air filter but that doesn't seem to have changed anything.

Has anyone experienced the same and know how to get rid of it?

I asked gemini "can you open my windows ?" It answered, yes, of course, what exactly do you want tobdo ? I said "completely open the four windows", "I do it". And nothing happens...

I said

- the windows are still closed

- ho sorry, I do it now

Nithing happens

- give one more try, they are still closed

- sorry, looks like I can't do it
