Premium Dashcam and Battery for Electric Vehicles
A high-quality dashcam is the first line of defense for vehicle protection, ensuring crucial moments are recorded. The chosen dashcam for this Polestar Polestar 2 is the I-Navi QXD7000, a premium device offering QHD resolution for both front and rear recording. Its advanced image sensor and lens tuning technology deliver clear footage in all lighting conditions, notably capturing license plates even in low-light or nighttime accidents.

The recommended Cellink Neo 8+ Slim is optimized for EVs, allowing adjustable charging currents (7A is ideal for the Polestar Polestar 2) and eliminating concerns about vehicle malfunctions during AC charging. This battery provides over 24 hours of parking recording and can be discreetly installed in the glove compartment. Its companion app offers real-time monitoring of battery status and voltage.
Velvet Window Film: Enhancing the Polestar Polestar 2's Elegance
The Polestar Polestar 2 demands window tinting that matches its premium status. The Vibes Nine Velvet (VELVET) tint film offers a subtle green-black hue that complements the car's modern and elegant design. Beyond aesthetics, this window film incorporates nano-carbon ceramic technology, significantly reducing eye strain for the driver while maintaining excellent visibility. The specific application for this Polestar Polestar 2 includes 40% tint on the front windshield and 15% on the side and rear windows. The front (40%) offers an impressive 96.1% infrared rejection rate and a 68.3% Total Solar Energy Rejected (TSER) rate, ensuring a comfortable cabin temperature and protecting the interior from UV damage.
Window Tinting Installation Process:
- Surface Preparation: The vehicle's windows are thoroughly cleaned and prepped to ensure optimal adhesion of the window film.
- Film Cutting: The Velvet window film is precisely cut to match the exact dimensions of each Polestar Polestar 2 window, often using specialized cutting machines.
- Application: The film is carefully applied to the interior side of the glass, using a squeegee to remove air bubbles and ensure a smooth, seamless finish.
- Curing: The tint film requires a curing period, during which it fully adheres to the glass, achieving its maximum performance and clarity.
