Polestar 2 Charging Speed Guide
The Polestar 2 supports Type 2 AC charging and CCS2 DC rapid charging. Compare indicative home and public charger estimates below, bearing in mind that specification varies between battery versions and model years.
Vehicle specifications
| Battery capacity (nominal) | 69 kWh |
|---|---|
| Usable battery capacity | 67 kWh (estimate) |
| Maximum AC charging | 11 kW |
| Maximum DC charging | 135 kW |
| Estimated efficiency | 3.4 miles per kWh |
| Connectors | Type 2 (AC) / CCS2 (DC) |
Estimated charging times
Indicative time for 10–80%, adding about 46.9 kWh at constant effective power.
| Charger | Effective power | Estimated time |
|---|---|---|
| 7 kW home (AC) | 7 kW | 6.7 hours |
| 22 kW AC | 11 kW | 4.3 hours |
| 50 kW rapid | 50 kW | 56 minutes |
| 150 kW rapid | 135 kW vehicle limit | 21 minutes |
| 250 kW ultra-rapid | 135 kW vehicle limit | 21 minutes |
A real rapid charge takes longer than a constant-power estimate because charging usually slows at higher battery levels. Cold weather and charging losses may add further time.
Polestar 2 charging FAQs
At 7 kW, a 10–80% charge is approximately 6.7 hours in this simplified calculation. Battery losses and vehicle settings can affect the result.
This guide uses 135 kW as an indicative peak. The maximum varies by version and is not maintained throughout a charging session.
A compatible CCS2-equipped model can connect; however, the vehicle's DC limit and current battery conditions determine the delivered power.
