Designed specifically for Polestar 2 BST edition 270, the Öhlins 2-way adjustable front dampers offer unique, competition-based tuning options for both compression and rebound. Combined with the updated Öhlins Dual Flow Valve rear dampers and custom-made springs, they enhance car control through a 25 mm lower ride height, quicker steering response and optimal pressure balance.
Recreating the design language of Polestar 1, the 21” Gloss Black Diamond Cut Alloy Wheels are exclusively engineered for Polestar 2 BST edition 270. Forged instead of cast, they pair increased strength with a lower unsprung weight, improving handling and road contact. To add to that, the rear wheels are slightly wider than the front wheels to decrease tyre flexibility and further enhance the car’s stability and agility.
While developing Polestar 2 BST edition 270, we focused on perfecting the mechanical grip as opposed to adding wings and spoilers. Enter the tyre specialists of Pirelli, who helped us find the right compound and structure for the responsiveness and grip required. The result is a specially developed 245/35R21 P Zero tyre, building on Pirelli's competition heritage and providing optimal grip, stability, and road contact under all conditions.
From 402 to 469 bhp (350 kW) of power. From 660 to 680 Nm of torque. The performance software upgrade boosts the dual motor powertrain output over the complete RPM register, further enhancing acceleration and responsiveness.
Impressive power requires even more impressive stopping power. That’s why Polestar called on renowned Italian manufacturer Brembo to engineer the brakes fitted to Polestar 2 BST edition 270. Building on decades of competition experience, the discs, callipers and pads offer increased rigidity and quick response at any temperature while reducing weight, wear, noise and dust build-up.
A higher powertrain output needs a higher level of control. To ensure that the BST edition 270 pairs exciting performance with predictable handling, the front suspension mounts are connected by a custom-fitted, aluminium strut bar, increasing the overall rigidity and enhancing steering stability at high speeds.
