Buying the Polestar Polestar 2 in Australia
- 1Range: the 591 km figure quoted in Australia is on the WLTP test cycle. WLTP is a fair guide; highway running at 110 km/h and outback heat will pull it down 10–20%.
- 2Charging: a 82 kWh pack refills overnight on a 7 kW home wallbox; on the road you'll use CCS2 (DC fast) and Type 2 (AC); Chargefox/Evie networks on the highways — this model does 10-80% in 27 min on 205kW.
- 3Incentives: The headline benefit is the federal FBT exemption for EVs under the Luxury Car Tax threshold (~A$91k) — biggest national saving for novated-lease buyers. State rebates are patchy and several have ended; check your state/territory.
- 4Climate: Long inter-city distances make DC-charging speed and a bigger battery matter more here than in dense-city markets.
- 5Fit: the range and DC speed handle the long inter-city distances Australians drive, plus the daily run.
