its the same gearbox - on more tourquey engines all cars have it.
Anyone who says they don’t probably just has smooth style of throttle application like I described. It’s not a turbo lag it’s a hesitation with engaging lower gear and power application.basically too much torque to handle and car throttles it very ungracefully.
It’s easy to bring up. Slow down into t junction or roundabout without fully stopping and floor it. You will have a momentary delay and then it will take off. I guarantee it comes up in every D5, t6 and t8 and people reported so much over the years.
Polestar doesn’t fix it. It’s just the way it works. The only way to remove it is to modulate throttle input and know the most you can get away with without causing it to do this.
