This render reimagines the Polestar 2 in a wagon variant. The Polestar 2 is considered a rival to both the Tesla Model 3 and Model Y. Though the Polestar 2 is a bit pricier than either of the Teslas. However, it oozes style and luxury, so it definitely has some advantages over the Teslas too.

Above, we've featured the newly rendered wagon version of the Polestar 2. This renders come to us courtesy of Andrew Stump who has kindly allowed us to share them with you.

The Polestar 2 comes packing a rather large 78 kWh battery. Polestar claims the 2 has a range of 500 kilometers (WLTP) or an estimated 250-275 miles EPA. The official EPA figure is not yet available.

At the motor front, the Polestar 2 boasts a 300 kW AWD dual-motor setup that cranks out 408 horses, and 487 lb-ft of torque.

The performance specs of the Polestar 2 are strong, but don't quite match the numbers of the Tesla Model 3.

Polestar 2 with a 78 kWh pack goes 275 miles, dashes from 0-60 in 4.7 seconds and has a charge rate of 150 kW.

The Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD 75 kWh pack goes 310 miles, sprints from 0-60 in 4.5 seconds and has a charge rate of 250 kW.

It'll be tough for Polestar to position the 2 against the model 3. Instead, Polestar should focus on the striking design of the car and on its uplevel feel and feature set.
