Quick take: The Polestar 2 provides a great driver oriented experience while being a quality daily. The competitive range will get you where you need on one charge. Although some interior design choices may leave you guessing and interior space may be an issue for larger owners, the performance and driving dynamics satisfy on all fronts.
I've been rocking OTA 2.9 on my Polestar 2 for a few weeks now, and I have to say, it's been an impressive update.
One of the standout features for me has been the improved efficiency app. It's a fantastic addition that I've been enjoying watching the graph change based on my driving and the road.
There was a poll a while back about Pilot Assist holding too far to the right or left. It was interesting to see mixed responses. Some folks agreed while others claimed they hadn't experienced the issue at all.
I was one of the unlucky ones who experienced a problem on a particular stretch of highway where Pilot Assist would uncomfortably stick to the right side of the lane. However, with update 2.9, I haven't encountered this problem again on the same stretch of road. It's worth noting that there haven't been any documented changes to how Pilot Assist functions, nor any modifications to the road (like repainting the lane markings, for instance).
