Our Verdict

Recommended for buyers seeking a high-pe

The most immediate point for negotiation is the state of the front tyres; the September 2025 MOT specifically flagged both the nearside and offside front tyres as being worn close to the legal limit. If these have not been replaced, this should be factored into the purchase price.

Beyond the tyres, verify the presence and condition of all original charging cables and check for any evidence of curb damage to the alloys, which is common on wider AWD variants. Ensure that all software updates have been applied, as these are critical for the performance and efficiency of the Polestar 2.

As a fully electric vehicle, daily running costs are significantly lower than equivalent petrol or diesel models, depending on the owner's electricity tariff. However, the AWD Plus trim typically falls into a higher insurance group due to its increased performance and repair costs.

Maintenance costs are generally lower than internal combustion engines, but buyers should budget for premium tyre replacements. Because of the vehicle's weight and AWD power delivery, tyre wear can be accelerated, as evidenced by the MOT history of this specific car.

Prioritise a physical inspection of the front tyres to see if the advisories from the September 2025 MOT (nearside and offside front worn close to legal limit) have been addressed. Check the seat belt mechanisms for smooth operation, as 'seat belt not' is listed as a top failure reason across the wider Polestar 2 aggregate data.

Inspect the blue exterior paintwork for stone chips and ensure the charging port operates smoothly. A check of the brake discs for surface corrosion is also advised, as EVs use regenerative braking, which can lead to less frequent use of the physical brakes.

This 2022 Blue Polestar 2 Plus AWD has recorded 29,731 miles, which is slightly below the model average of 10,266 miles per year. Its first MOT in September 2025 resulted in a pass, though it included advisories for worn front tyres. With an aggregate model pass rate of 90.5%, this vehicle sits within a statistically reliable model range.

The Polestar 2 demonstrates a strong reliability profile with a 90.5% average MOT pass rate across 5,770 analysed vehicles.
