Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Focus your attention on obtaining a battery health report and verifying the remaining manufacturer warranty, as this vehicle is now several years old. Ensure the service history confirms regular cabin filter changes and brake fluid checks, which are the primary maintenance requirements for this EV.
Given the model's aggregate data, pay close attention to the condition of the tyres and wheel rims. Negotiate the price based on the remaining tread depth, as tyre replacement on heavier electric vehicles can be a significant recurring cost.
As a fully electric vehicle, the primary expenses are electricity and insurance. While road tax is currently minimal for EVs, insurance groups for the Polestar 2 are typically higher due to the vehicle's performance and repair costs.
Maintenance is generally lower than a petrol or diesel equivalent, though the model's weight leads to faster wear on tyres and suspension components. Annual costs will primarily consist of home charging and routine safety inspections.
Inspect the tyres and suspension arms carefully, as these are the most frequent failure points across the 8,446 Polestar 2s analysed in our database. Check the wheel fixings for any signs of wear or improper torque.
Specifically for this vehicle, check the under-vehicle area where an 'Inspection Cover' was noted in the December 2024 MOT to ensure it is secure and undamaged. Finally, check the charging port and cables for any signs of physical wear.
This grey 2021 Polestar 2 EV FWD has recorded 51,123 miles as of its most recent MOT in December 2025. It has a consistent pass record with no major defects recorded across its testing history. With a mileage profile that closely mirrors the model average, it represents a standard example of this electric model.
The Polestar 2 has a respectable aggregate MOT pass rate of 89.8%, though it is prone to tyre and suspension arm issues.
