It 'should' improve mpg but that really depends on how you drive the car. Given that the Polestar Optimisation software increases the midrange torque quite a bit, you shouldn't need to rev the engine as much in normal driving which in-turn should increase mpg. However, if you decide to utilise the high rpm increase in power alot then you will reduce mpg as you are using more fuel, its all very driving style dependent.
I would say that the improvement in midrange torque and power and gearbox responsiveness from the Polestar optimisation is well worth the outlay.
Give it a try as the dealerships do offer a 14 day money back trial of the software. If you dont like it, they will return it to standard.
