Battery options & usable capacity
Polestar’s 2021 US announcement describes a 78 kWh battery for the referenced long-range versions. It is not explicitly a net figure in that extract, so no usable-capacity preset is inferred.

Charging capability
Confirm the exact AC/DC limits and current software for the car. The heat pump mentioned with the Plus Pack in the cited release is a specification detail to verify, not a reason to assume a fixed winter-range improvement.

Battery warranty
Ask for the applicable regional battery warranty, start date and distance limit. A vehicle’s connected-app status is not proof of remaining coverage.
Things worth checking before purchase
- Match single- or dual-motor specification to the correct year and market.
- Check the actual Plus Pack and heat-pump equipment rather than assuming it is standard.
- Confirm software status, both charging modes and included charging cables.
- Ask for pack-repair history and a report dated close to the sale.
