Polestar 2 Launch Edition 2020, Andy - EV Owner Review

 

What car are you interested in next and why?
Polestar Precept – because I like to be an early adopter and it looks stunning!

 

What home charging unit do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
Ohme – smart app is limited and still won’t work with the Polestar app to show current charge. Would suggest researching others.

 

What home electricity supplier & tariff do you use? Would you recommend it to others and why?
Octopus Go.

 

What public charging networks do you use? Would you recommend them to others and why?
BP pulse and Ecotricity – both awful. Never found a reliable one yet. Pod Point is the free one I use but so slow.

 

Who do you insure your EV with? Would you recommend them to others and why?
NFU – company policy. Wouldn’t suggest them, good for tractors, not EVs…
