Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Kia makes a better BMW and charges less for it.

Pros
Gutsy optional V-6 engine,
flashy exterior styling,
big-time bang for the buck.

Cons
Nervous handling at the edge of its envelope,
won't satisfy badge snobs,
less than posh interior.

By:

Punchy turbocharged engines
Balanced ride and handling
Large cargo area
Easy-to-use touch screen

Below-average fuel economy

Sporty and stylish appearance stands out
Entertaining levels of performance
Refined interior with hatchback utility
Generous warranty coverage

Cons
Limited space for rear passengers

Sloping roofline hampers rear visibility

One of the most complete electric cars money can buy. Superb build quality, and decent to drive.

Pros
Beautifully built intuitive cabin,
effortless performance,
exceptionally cool image,

Pros
Performance Pack adjustable dampers are too firm out of the box
the look on Tesla drivers’ faces

By: 
topgear.com

The Polestar 2 is an excellent luxury electric vehicle, even if it's not as visually exciting as trendier alternatives.

Pros
Notable athleticism and quickness,
cabin materials and quality are indeed luxurious,
surprisingly intuitive infotainment system.

Cons
Exterior design isn't exactly daring,
race-inspired dampers require manual adjustments,
estimated driving range is underwhelming.
