Overview
2023 Polestar 2 BST Edition 270 is a car which goes as by its name. Limited to only 270 units worldwide, the BST has unique chassis mods and 680 Nm of torque. Also, there are paint choices available, along with stripes and or a full-body wrap.
What’s New?
The 2023 Polestar 2, doesn’t give any race-car vibes even when equipped with the optional Performance Pack. But now, this changes with the introduction of the limited-production BST edition 270, available only with a single matte-black stripe and the number ‘2’ on the hood. The stripe is a $1000 option, giving the BST buyers option to avoid the look if it’s too flashy. Compared to the non-BST versions, the dual electric motors are now tuned to make an extra 20 Nm of torque (680 total) and 476 hp.

New Chassis Mods
Now, the Polestar 2 BST is full of chassis mods. The riding height is an inch lower than stock, suspension springs are 20% stiffer, and a front strut bar has been added. As standard, the manually adjustable Öhlins dampers are included with the Performance Pack, which is specially tuned for the BST. These are companioned by auxiliary adjustment chambers under the hood and look dope because they’re gold painted. The BST sits on Polestar-1 inspired matte black 21-inch wheels, complementing the stripe. The rims are wrapped with Pirelli P Zero rubber that Polestar says was specially designed for the BST.
