Not to turn this into a Polestar thread, but i’ve had one for 3 years and it’s a fantastic car, as others have said Tesla have opened their network up fairly recently but beware only selected sites allow charging by non-Teslas – you can find out which in the Tesla app. Ionity also have a good network, and you can be confident of 200 miles real world range in the Summer, with 30-40 mins recharging.
On regenerative braking I use the middle setting, the high one is just too fierce and in the real world it doesn’t add much to your batteries anyway.
An upgrade might be to a more powerful model, eg a twin motor 4wd.
