A mere $20,000 reduction. $80K down to $60K. 25% off.

We must give some thoughts to those who bought one last week, or any EV as
all EVs are likely to drop in price.

The first stage is over, the I have an an EV so that others envy me is over.

Stage two begins with, high charging rates fuel wise and extra hassles of
charging at home amd on the road trip. As well as the road tax to arrive
shortly.

There was no need for the tax incentives as has been shown by this price
adjustment.

Then we have this

"The local Polestar arm has said the range will kick off at $119,900 for
the Long range Single motor variant, while the Long range Dual motor model
starts at $129,990. Both Pilot and Plus packs are standard on all NZ vehicles,
including Harman Kardon premium sound, Pixel LED headlights and three-zone
climate control."

Yep we can but 2 VW ID4 Pro and still have some change left.

I wonder how long it is before the rear view camera fails, and what it is
like driving with it in this condition.
