Polestar announced new P2 base model in Canada, for a lower price

Came across this news today that Polestar will be adding a single motor version of the P2 when it launches in Canada this fall.

Specs as follows

Power: 321HP
Range: 426KM
Price: $49,900 in Ontario and less in QC/BC.
(Dual motor is $56,900 with only 400KM although nearly double the power at 408HP).

Optional: Heat pump with the Plus package, for $5,500. Also included is a panoramic roof, Hardon Kardon audio a vegan interior and illumination.

There is another option to add the usual driver assitance tech for another $4,500 (ouch!).

Other than that, it seems like a good price to me. Makes the Bolt seem like a waste.
