2020 Polestar 2 Pilot Plus EV AWD Electricity · OV70 NBA

The Polestar 2 presents a stable and reassuring maintenance trend. The most recent test on 21 April 2026 at 85,571 miles recorded a clean pass with zero defects, indicating that all roadworthiness standards were met without compromise. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes in December 2024 at 71,464 miles and December 2023 at 50,298 miles. The absence of any advisories or failures across all three recorded tests suggests attentive ownership and no emerging mechanical or structural deterioration. The mileage accumulation tells a clear story of heavy use. Covering 85,571 miles in approximately six years equates to roughly 14,262 miles per year, which is notably high for a vehicle of this age. The jump from 50,298 miles in December 2023 to 71,464 miles by December 2024 represents 21,166 miles in a single year, and the subsequent climb to 85,571 miles by April 2026 adds another 14,107 miles in sixteen months. This sustained high-mileage pattern places accelerated wear on consumable components, particularly tyres, brake discs and pads, suspension bushes, and drivetrain mounts, even though the MOT record itself remains unblemished. Despite the clean MOT history, a prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection focused on components that high-mileage electric vehicles stress disproportionately. The dual-motor AWD powertrain and substantial battery weight place extra demand on front and rear suspension bushes, coil springs, and drop links. Tyre wear across all four corners deserves close scrutiny, as the instant torque delivery of electric motors accelerates tyre degradation, and uneven wear could indicate alignment or suspension geometry issues not yet severe enough to trigger an MOT failure. The braking system warrants particular attention at this mileage. Electric vehicles rely heavily on regenerative braking, which can mask underlying mechanical brake issues such as binding calipers or corroded discs that only manifest during sustained friction braking at speed. Inspect the structural underside for corrosion, particularly around subframe mounting points and suspension attachment areas, as high annual mileage in varied conditions can accelerate rust in critical load-bearing areas. The battery enclosure and high-voltage cabling should also be examined for any signs of impact damage or compromised sealing, as these are not always detectable during a standard MOT assessment.
