I've been driving the new Capri for two weeks now. It looks fantastic, runs smoothly and has plenty of punch. The interior's been modernised throughout and the software is rock‑solid. Range is good, too. I'm really pleasantly surprised.

Polestar 2

The Polestar 2 is a crisp, Scandinavian-styled electric liftback that pairs minimalist luxury with a focused, driver's attitude. It feels agile and composed whether you’re commuting or heading out for the weekend, with a tech-forward cabin and enough personality to make everyday driving a bit more fun.
