The average price for a new EV in the US is much closer to $40-50k with a range from $25k to >$100k per this US News article. Most EVs are well outside any dream of affordability for the average American, but it makes sense given the ICE market is also increasingly more expensive every year.

Polestar isn't an entry level or budget brand- they make luxury vehicles and price them as such. It doesn't make the MSRP less insane and I question why anyone would pay that, but there's clearly a market for luxury vehicles here given the popularity of BMW, Audi, and other luxury brands that sell ICE cars.

The price point for electric cars in America is 25-30k. 70K is mentally ill

Chevy Bolt MSRP is $28,995.
