I've forgotten when I started to lose my ultimate pursuit of control, maybe because of my age, or maybe because people have become Buddhist after the pandemic. But when I test-drove the Polestar 4, I regained my passion for handling, and even when I was sick, I was able to win first place in the single-motor Gymkhana race with a time of 1 minute and 21 seconds.
Let's talk about the process of participating in the Polestar 4 Gymkhana competition.
Polestar has built one of the largest Gymkhana circuits I've ever seen on the shores of Qiandao Lake, with straight line acceleration, emergency braking, pile wrapping, emergency lane changes, U-turns, turn-arounds, S-turns, small-angle turns, and corner turns. At that time, I was thinking that if the car was not very well controlled on this Gymkhana circuit, it was easy to push the head or even lose control. And it turns out that the Polestar 4 can barely be turned on in the hands of the players.
With this curiosity in mind, I also started my own test drive circle. The single-motor version of the Polestar 4 provides good acceleration from the first moment of the electric rush out of the floor, which will make me feel that it can meet most use cases on the daily roadThe large right-angled corners and continuous line changes, the control of the turning radius and the lateral support of the chassis gave me a lot of driving confidence.
The 18-metre pile rhythm can be controlled as you like, with a speed of about 50km h, and I realized that the Polestar 4's power tuning and excellent handling have broken my stereotype of "stupid and fast" electric vehicles in recent years, so I can enter the next U-bend and S-bend at a higher speed.
The next turn and corner bend also have an emergency line change, because the car's center of gravity shift is quite good, and it is quite easy to pass - in the first lap, I got a good time of 1 minute and 22 seconds, so in the second lap I deliberately accelerated the details between the corners, and the car I drove was still equipped with Goodyear Eagle F1 tires, only stepping on a little rattle in two corners, if it is Pirelli P Zero professional tires, it is expected that the dynamic performance of the vehicle will go further.
The last time I had such a feeling, I had to go back to the BMW in the era of oil cars, I originally thought that new energy vehicles with large self-weight could not be comparable to the handling of oil vehicles, but I was slapped in the face so quickly, and it really refreshed my understanding of Polestar and pure electric vehicles. Suddenly recalled that in 2019, I went to the track with expectations to test drive the new BMW 3 Series, and found that the 3 Series has changed from a spiritual guy to a middle-aged beautiful boy who compromises for life, please don't rush to diss - to be honest, in addition to the Toyota 86 that I drove some time ago, it is now difficult to think of any 300,000 oil car that can have such excellent handling back then.
After leaving the venue, I drove the Polestar 4 onto the highway to feel it. In fact, whether it is the road around Qiandao Lake or the highway full of traffic, this 200 kW single-motor Polestar 4 is fully capable of all kinds of power needs, and even accelerates in the middle of the start0t is much stronger, even matching the best BMW 20T+8AT occasionally has a setback, and as for the experience of other fuel power combinations, it is also getting bigger and bigger with the tram.
As a former fuel fan, my mentality has been subtly changing, but I don't want to persuade my friends who are obsessed with oil cars. In fact, everyone has their own pursuits, and it was only through a long time of test driving and experience that I slowly changed my opinion on new energy vehicles. It's just recommended that those who have a need for handling can take a test drive of the Polestar 4 to see how far the tram's handling has been.
Finally, it is worth mentioning that the intelligent assisted driving of the Polestar 4 is basically the same as the function of the new domestic forces, so I can leave most of the driving tasks to the vehicle on the highway, and I can drive it with a very relaxed mind to enjoy the surrounding scenery. Playing piano music, coupled with the Polestar 4's Harman Kardon sound effect, the sound insulation is also in place, and the independent and private atmosphere in the whole cabin is very good, I can't help but think of what it is like to be a luxury brand oil car.
I wanted to leave a beautiful footnote in my heart for the oil truck, but suddenly found that once I had this kind of nostalgia, the oil truck was already an "old man".
Driver summary. In fact, the Polestar 4 is currently the most suitable model for all-round family use in the Polestar family, it is no longer as the ultimate pursuit of sports, but when it is pulled out and compared with the control, it is still one of the best in the same class and price. Coupled with the full coverage of the 200 kilowatt motor power, the intelligent assisted driving also has a good play, and the most intuitive feeling after the test drive is:
That feeling of familiarity and novelty came to it;Perhaps its positioning is different from that of an SUV, and its styling is more avant-garde than that of a sedan, and it is this personality and excellent driving feel that have become the biggest feature of the Polestar 4.
