^^^ Now that looks really good. Body colored fender molding and lowered makes a hilige difference.

It looks really cool, but it's definitely not for me. That thing screams "RACE ME!" Every juvenile with a Mustang, Charger, Honda, WRX and STI etc. would be riding my tail asking to be embarrassed. The Olihn's are going to be way too stiff with the car that lowered. Probably a great track car, but I prefer a nonchalant sleeper. But awesome effort from Polestar. They were once Volvo's performance division, now they are actually producing real performance cars!

Looks like a Mustang to me.

So one thing I noticed after the update, it seemed the throttle response is a lot softer. Meaning before you had to press the pedal harder. I got so used to the harder pedal that whenever I drive my IS350 or my Sienna the pedal feels really soft and I end up pressing down to hard making the cars jolt forward. Is this something in my mind or do you guys notice this as well?

From the update notes, doesn't give much details. The one that stands out most is the "Improved robustness for DC charging", but not sure what that means. There has definitely been some minor issues with DC charging where it will slow down to around the 50kWh range and than really drop nearing 80 percent, hit a cliff after 80 percent

It's the same exact body as mine, lowered and 21" tires. I think it's the stripe, that needs to go

Downloaded OTA 2.1 yesterday while at hospital.
Smooth as silk.
No issues noted for me.



Apple CarPlay comin real soon


Apparently it will look like this.

AMIRZA786

Same here, no issues. I started the install while I was at work, and at the end of the day I came back to the car and it was done. From the notes the most significant update is addressing DC charging. I have been getting slower than advertised DC charging, especially when I used the 350 kW Fast charger. Speeds would initially be above 100 kWh, but than drop between 70 kWh to 50 kWh. This is with the battery preconditioned. Also, I don't know if this is in my mind, but today I noticed throttle to be softer, I didn't need to press as hard to get the same response. I initially felt that the pedal is way to hard. Not sure if this was something they adjusted, let me know if you notice that or if it's just in my mind

MDlexus

I really didn’t notice any difference with th throttle response but you might be right. I believe it was adjusted one or two updates ago.

I rarely charge away from home. I did a handful of times at EA, just because, and haven’t had any issues.

Haven’t experienced any ‘bugs’ though. All good on the East Coast!

^ thanks for the feedback. updated last night as well and so far, so good. at first I thought the images you posted with CarPlay was from your update

AMIRZA786

That's good to hear! I've only experienced one bug, that was when my father left the back door open and the car told me "Key not detected". Took me about 5 minutes to realize that my father had left the door open. Other than that, 5 months and 4,300 miles of trouble free operation!

MDlexus

Just made 1 year in and 15k miles.
No regrets.
I had one issue with connectivity, which lasted 3 weeks, before I went to dealer for fix.

bowser

great to hear. 5 months and almost 6000 (s)miles for me. i wish the next update will have CarPlay and the pixel led lights activation

EZZ

So basically less reliable than a Lexus. But since you have no scheduled maintenance, waaaaay more convenient than any ICE

AMIRZA786

If he had a connectivity issue, it was probably a problem with the TCAM. That just meant he wasn't getting LTE connectivity

MDlexus

The car was fully functional. Just didn’t have google maps, hey google, etc. No other issues.
So far, It has been extremely reliable and this is coming from one who’s owned 8 previous Lexus vehicles.
