Polestar's long range single motor Polestar 2 arrives in the US
Following the release of its dual-motor variant late last year, Polestar announced on Wednesday that the 270-mile Long Range, single-motor version of its Polestar 2 EV is now available for sale in the US.

Let's hope Geneva shows enough interest in the Range_e to compel Land Rover to turn it into a commercial reality.
