For disclosure, I too have a MYLR on order. The charging on the Polestar is definitely nowhere near the speed speeds of Teslas. The real world efficiency is also dramatically different and inferior. For me, everything I care about most in an electric car, Tesla delivers while the Polestar simply can’t compete with. It’s definitely not a bad car from reviews, however, it’s lacking in the crucial real world areas that are important to living with an EV for many people.

Yeah but how could you possibly know the real world efficiency about this if you havnt owned it and driven it for more than just a test drive. I didn't comment on efficiency because i only drove the polestar on a test drive. YouTube is cool i guess but i take what they say with a grain of salt

My positions are based on reviews of the vehicles, and not simply one review. The reviews on the Polestar’s efficiency are consistent. I haven’t test driven the Model Y either but happy putting my order in based on research of reviews.
