Default Polestar question

Maybe a stupid question but if you get polestar done, does the extra power and torque get added to each drive mode, or do you only get the polestar power in polestar mode?.

How I understand it, on SPA platform models (sensus based cars) the power mode gets renamed to polestar and gives you full power in that mode, in AWD or other modes, I believe you don't get the advantage of polestar engine mapping.

Don't expect the world of difference, it's a mild factory remap, not like an aftermarket remap where you notice huge increases.
