The single-motor version uses rear-wheel drive mode, and the new motor has an output power of 295 horsepower (220 kW) and a maximum torque of 361 lb-ft (489 Nm), an increase of 68 hp (50 kW) and 118 lb-ft (160 Nm) compared to the previous generation.

The rear-wheel drive version of the Polestar 2 also acquired a larger 82 kWh battery pack, giving the EPA a range of 320mph (514.99 km)-an increase of 50 miles over its predecessor.

The 2024 Polestar 2 dual-motor long-lasting version also upgrades the powertrain, and two new motors can bring more power and torque.

The dual-motor model uses a new rear motor as the main driving force, and a new asynchronous motor is upgraded on the front axle. The two motors deliver 415 horsepower (310 kW) and 546 lb-ft (739 Nm) of torque, which is stronger than the original 402 horsepower (300 kW) and 487 lb-ft (659 Nm), which will also lead to significant performance improvements, such as an acceleration time of 0-60 mph to 4.3 seconds.
