The August issue of Consumer Reports has their reviews of the Mach-E & the Polestar 2. The main takeaways:
Mach-E: Fun to Drive but Reliability Concerns
Overall Score: 62
Road-Test Score: 78
Highs: Acceleration, handling, quietness, no tailpipe emissions
Lows: Fussy door handles, controls, modest range, long charging times
"Its combination of style, practicality, and a fun-to-drive nature makes it one of the most enjoyable EVs on the market. It's less-than-stellar Overall Score is largely due to worse-than-average predicted reliability from the Ford brand."
Polestar 2: An Unimpressive First EV Effort
Overall Score: 57
Road-Test Score: 72
Highs: Acceleration, braking, handling, no tailpipe emissions
Lows: Ride, controls, cramped interior, modest range, long charging times
"... failed to impress with its bone-jarring ride, tight interior, and confusing controls..."
