Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor

The Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor reaches 60 mph in 6.64 s (100 km/h in 7.03 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.16 s, tripping the lights at 93.7 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.52 s and the eighth mile in 9.88 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the 2 Long Range Single Motor

The 2021 Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor is a front-drive electric car of 2,018 kg with 228 bhp, which works out at 113 bhp per tonne. With full torque from a standstill it clears the first 60 ft in 2.52 s, and the question for an electric car is usually not the launch but whether it keeps pulling: it trips the quarter-mile lights at 93.7 mph. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 4,078th quickest to 60 mph, and the 4th quickest of the 4 Polestars here. Its 93.7 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 1 of 1 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor 0-60 time?
The Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor reaches 60 mph in 6.64 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 4,078th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor quarter mile time?
15.16 s at 93.7 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.88 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.52 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor have?
228 bhp and 2,018 kg, which is 113 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, electric, with 1 gears and a quoted top speed of 205 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor?
Closest here on pace: Audi A7 Sportback 3.0 TDI CVT 204 (6.62 s), Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 TDI quattro 190 (6.63 s), Audi A5 Sportback 2.0 TDI quattro 190 Auto (6.63 s). Each one can be raced against the Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Polestar 2 Long Range Single Motor is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 1 of its 1 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-16. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
