I may now actually end up with the Polestar 2 or the XC40 Recharge.

Lucky you! Hopefully you'll be able to post your opinion on the vehicle here, the Polestar 2 is one of the vehicles I'm looking forward to in 2020.

From the paper specs, it seems it might be on the small side. What was your impression of rear seat leg room and cargo capacity? Can a six foot person sit behind a six foot person and carry reasonable luggage?

While we are on the topic of EVs, I recently ran across a bombshell about EPA range. Apparently many cars are penalized for having different charging options (e.g. choosing to charge to 80% to avoid battery wear), and the EPA rates based on the manufacturer recommended charge level rather than a full charge. For some reason EPA lets Tesla rate at 100% battery despite having selectable charge levels.
Just getting this out there because it seems super important, most EV discussions end up boiling down to "meh, poor range" or something, when it seems that the playing field may be skewed. https://www.greencarreports.com/news...-electric-cars |

RWD only is a deal breaker for me, in New England where the weather can get nasty sometimes. Otherwise I would seriously consider it. An SUV without 4WD? BMW has lost its way.
