Got the Polestar installed yesterday from the brilliant Cameron Strathmore in Perth, so the 30 odd miles home down the M/W gave me a decent chance to see the difference. It`s like being permanently in Sport mode, though of course labelled 'Polestar Optimisation' in the drive selection now. I left it in 'Comfort' and didn`t use the P.O mode.
I`ll be on a 400 mile drive next week to Doncaster so will get a better feel for fuel consumption and othe drive modes.
But 1st impression is am very happy with it.

That should be 300 miles
Anyway, pretty much all M/W coming home yesterday. 1st 130 miles or so, sitting at 70mph ish. Took it easy. Got to the M6 and sat at 80+ mph for 100 miles. Filled up this morning with 27l of fuel and returned 51mpg. Pretty damned good I think.
So, does P* optimisation give a better MPG? Hard to say but it`s very possible. Certainly at those speeds. Yes, I know there are many factors but going on past experience........
For sure though, it`s a better car to drive now.
