What's the current status of the PoleStar 2? Is it being made to order or has production stopped and they're clearing out inventory?

I want to get a new car for my wife. She's currently driving an IS. After looking at a lot of cars, only the G70 shooting brake seems relatively pleasing. Here are my main concerns: 1. A friend mentioned that there's not much difference between the two cars, and the IS might be slightly better, so it may not be significant. 2. Recently, many car companies are offering discounts and promotions, but the manufacturer currently shows no sign of doing so. 3. Both cars require ordering and production scheduling, which means a long waiting time, making it awkward. 4. Since it's all about ordering and production scheduling, the options and configurations are not flexible enough. 5. I'm worried about their sales and the potential of dealership closures. Have any other car owners faced similar awkward issues? [Facepalm]

I've heard there's going to be a facelift, and they're clearing out the inventory now. Does anyone know about this?

I bought the 2019 Bestune T99 in September 2020. Since it was my first car purchase, I lacked experience and fell into many traps. Besides having many minor issues, I later discovered several parts were damaged. The tires were previously used, which immediately made me suspect that this car was probably a test drive vehicle. And I was right. A few days ago, I went to replace the turn signal lights and found that the wiring inside had been reconnected, and the connections were poorly done. Moreover, the production dates of the left and right turn signals were almost a year apart. (Cars from the factory have uniform dates.) After all these years, it's impossible to explain this to the dealership now! I hope everyone pays attention to details when buying a car to avoid being deceived.

The release of the Zeekr 7x has made me more certain of one thing: the current 009 is truly a transitional product. We have to wait for the next facelift.

The release of the Zeekr 7X has made me more certain of one thing: the current 009 model really lacks sincerity, or you could say it's an over-engineered product. It's worth waiting for the all-new version or for a full-size SUV.

What is the code on the nameplate for the 2025 model? Is there a difference from the 2024 model? What would be considered a normal production time for the 2025 models currently being sold?

I've had the car for about a month now, and honestly, I feel like it's a great fit for younger drivers. The design is sporty, and the interior space turned out to be better than I expected, so I didn’t hesitate to go ahead and place the order. At first glance, the look is pretty standard — nothing too flashy — and the car sits lower than most other SUVs. So far, I’ve driven around 600 km. Fuel consumption is currently between 8.8 to 9 L/100 km, mostly city driving. I haven’t taken it on the highway much yet, but I believe the fuel economy will improve over time. Acceleration is quite strong — it uses the same engine as the Civic — though I don't push it hard often; I only tried flooring it once just to see how it feels. The rearview camera is clear, and I didn’t install a 360° system since I’m used to using the mirrors, but I might add it later — blind spots are always a risk. Friends and coworkers who sat in the back all said the space felt pretty good. What annoyed me the most is the infotainment system. Wireless CarPlay has a 1–2 second delay, which isn’t terrible but still noticeable. I’ve seen people online claim some versions have zero delay — not sure how true that is. The voice assistant is also a bit frustrating; it sometimes activates randomly in the middle of a conversation and starts talking out of nowhere! The horn also sounds cheap — one guy compared it to an electric scooter and honestly, I couldn’t agree more. Another weird thing: there’s no one-touch window up/down feature, which feels like a missed basic feature. And the sound insulation is weak — you can clearly hear wind and tire noise, especially at higher speeds. I usually end up turning up the music just to drown it out — maybe that's just typical for Japanese cars? Overall though, as my first car, I’m pretty satisfied. I don’t have much experience with other cars yet, so this is just my perspective. Hope it helps anyone considering this car — no offense intended to anyone!
