The Polestar 2 BST Edition 270 transforms the already capable Polestar 2 into an even more focused performance vehicle. This limited-edition model builds upon the dual-motor platform with a significant power increase to 476 horsepower and 502 lb-ft of torque, achieved through a revised powertrain calibration. The BST Edition sits 25mm lower than the standard model, featuring specially developed Öhlins 2-way adjustable dampers with auxiliary adjustment chambers mounted under the hood, along with unique spring rates and a front strut bar for enhanced rigidity.

Visually, the BST Edition distinguishes itself with exclusive 21-inch alloy wheels inspired by the Polestar 1, fitted with Pirelli P Zero tires that were specifically developed for this model. The exterior features unique color options including Thunder or Snow with a contrasting matte black racing stripe, complemented by fully painted bumpers and side skirts. The brake calipers, damper elements, valve caps, and seat belts are finished in Swedish gold, highlighting the vehicle's performance credentials.

Inside, the BST Edition maintains the sustainable luxury approach Polestar is known for, while adding unique elements that denote its special status. The interior features a blend of Nappa leather and microsuede materials, with signature Swedish gold accents throughout. Each vehicle is individually numbered, reinforcing its exclusivity as one of only 270 units produced globally. The BST Edition represents Polestar's commitment to pushing the boundaries of electric performance, offering a more focused and engaging driving experience while maintaining the practicality and sustainability of the standard Polestar 2.
