2021 Polestar 2 Pilot Plus EV AWD Electricity · OV21 BJO

The Polestar 2 presents a clean and stable maintenance trend across its MOT history. The most recent test on 24 April 2026 at 65,288 miles passed with zero defects, indicating the vehicle met all roadworthiness standards at that point. This follows two consecutive passes on 25 April 2025 at 53,159 miles and 19 April 2024 at 40,624 miles, both also completely defect-free. The absence of any recorded advisories or failures across three consecutive annual tests suggests consistent upkeep and no emerging mechanical or structural concerns. The mileage accumulation pattern is notably high for a vehicle of this age. Between the April 2024 test at 40,624 miles and the April 2025 test at 53,159 miles, the vehicle covered 12,535 miles in twelve months. That increased to 12,129 miles between April 2025 and April 2026. Over the five-year ownership period, the vehicle has averaged approximately 13,058 miles per year, which sits well above the typical UK annual average of around 7,500 to 8,000 miles. This sustained high-mileage use accelerates wear on consumable components such as tyres, brake pads and discs, suspension bushes, and drivetrain mounts. The MOT record is sparse in the sense that only three tests exist for a five-year-old vehicle, but the clean results at each interval provide reasonable reassurance that critical safety systems have been maintained to standard. Despite the clean MOT results, the high annual mileage warrants a thorough in-person inspection of components that degrade with use rather than age. The buyer should examine the condition of the tyres for uneven or accelerated wear, check the brake discs and pads for scoring or lipping, and inspect the suspension for play in the bushes and drop links. The electric drivetrain eliminates traditional engine and gearbox wear, but the high mileage places additional stress on the regenerative braking system and the mechanical parking brake components. Underbody inspection is advisable to confirm the structural integrity of the battery enclosure mounting points and subframe, particularly given the vehicle's AWD configuration and the additional stresses from dual-motor torque delivery. A test drive should focus on any unusual drivetrain vibrations, steering wander, or suspension noise that may indicate worn components not yet severe enough to trigger an MOT advisory.
