This video was brought to you by Steinberg a better world planner Mr Green Camp power and Marcus Beale Yo what's up you know the purpose of 1 000 kilometer challenge is to show the Anti-ev people that electric cars can be Sexy and fast and I wanted to try to Make it 1 000 kilometers within 10 hours And this BMV i7 I estimated we'll do it In 9 hours and 50 minutes maybe even Faster we'll see so yes we have charged The car to 100 now we're getting ready Let me see let me see look at this look At this Oh Oh the Swarovski of crystals wait I see moisture on the inside of the Headlights In a car that costs 2 million Nook we Have moisture in the headlights but Guess what this happens with every Headlight I've seen it in expensive cars I've seen it in Tesla but for some Reason just the people they about This and BMV people they'll be like Whatever you know it's gonna buff out Yes so what we can check out the ones we Are maybe at the halfway point if the The headlights have dried out but yeah Look at this do you like this how Big is your grill and it's illuminated Oh yeah look look this is a proper Limousine All right James wait

Oh it always goes slow look at that huh Do you like this huh Okay and then okay I miss it too close The door this is to open the door and Then the clothes do you have to press This button two different buttons for Opening closing the door that is really Count intuitive and then this one is Always slow to open okay now it's fast Oh yeah oh yeah welcome to my lounge oh Oh yeah and then You wanna close the door press the brake Oh yeah Okay and then we there's I don't know Where there's a why there's a start stop Button yeah please tell me okay the plan Is to go straight to volleyball look Here root preview The car estimates we will rub it 17 at Volume oh yeah we have 106 kilowatt hour Battery I mentioned 99 kilowatt hour net Capacity to go there just fine I think I Will actually start in two minutes the Reset everything and then off we go Foreign Bye Check out we have Turtle mode Is this third mode the car is neck Snapping fast even in Turtle mode we Have two percent left okay let's go Let's go I'm stuck behind a slow speed Anyway Plug it in oh You're here

I'm gonna show you something cool wait What the heck this part dried out But this part here is still it still has Moisture inside okay okay Oh no this time it didn't reboot okay Whatever every time I come here and Chart on this charger it tends to reboot And then you see American megatrends Buyers and then it but now it okay let Me see will it Colgate will it Colgate Oh it absolutely did not Colgate I Preheated for maybe one minute and then I didn't dare to preheat because I Arrived two oh look at that speed oh Yeah 500 amp oh yeah Man I can't get enough of this freaking Huge illuminated Grill What dinner for the day is salad oh yeah Homemade salad remember to ABC always Bring salad Um Well that's it we charge from two Percent to 53 in 20 minutes Yes we're gonna go now and then the car Estimates that we will arrive and has Involved 16 18 now I think we arrive at Around 10 percent all right let's go Foreign Warning yeah 60 kilometers of range left Okay but we are 25 kilometers away And if you look here root overview the Court what the heck man German software the car claims that we

Will arrive with zero percent uh but if You look here if you go up here wait no No No no no no what the heck Content this one this one estimates we Will arrive at nine percent yeah that's Fine okay but I want to go on this one Because now Um the preheating is not active But I want to fire up manually just to Make sure why not we're just gonna try It okay see here now we can do this Preconditioned battery activate manually And then you'll watch here The consumption should go up And then there should be an icon coming Up soon Uh Well There isn't I guess it means that the battery is hot Enough We are now a little bit past the halfway Mark And look at the big fat gr I can't get Over it man Understood Something the crystals these are real Crystals and also inside we have real Diamonds but this well it still hasn't Dried out this one I don't know if you guys can see it I Can see it clearly But listen

We have birds chirping over here Oh spring is finally coming it it was so Winterish here a couple of weeks ago but Now we are fine we're fine okay let me Check out I came with eight percent but Nine percent don't remember Oh look at this oh yeah So I charged to around 55 last time this Time I think I need to charge around 50 Only since we have a little bit of Tailwind on the way back so yeah quick Pit stop here and then off we go back Again I guess there's nothing else to Show you guys here I've been here so Many times before it's at night now so We have not look over here so but Whatever we're fine we're fine All right we're good to go I need almost 50 percent so this is going to be Roughly 15 minutes Johnny stop And we're riding on the 190 to 140 Kilowatt wave here all right Hammer Time All right we are already on the way back That was just a 15 minute charting stop And it went from eight percent to 48 Within 15 minutes huh so we just ride on The high speed wave at the bottom but Yeah so you see now Um we hit the five hour mark and we have Done 525 kilometers already and we still Have uh 44 batteries we can hammer it so It's looking good so far and then the Car is just super comfy oh man I just ride on the

Oh right on the cushion it's like A Magic Carpet ride but I have to say Okay this one and then the equest they Are kind of Rivals German and everything But I feel like the equest is more bold Here It's um it rides better it rides Slightly sportier than the the eqs But you still have the nice comfort so You don't feel the bumps too much versus For example a Tesla Model S so um I Actually like to ride on the BMV quite a Lot Thank you We are now at vile by again oh it's Starting to get Bright Now yeah the days Are getting longer now and also warmer Finally can't wait for spring to come Look here Focus You see I can't decide whether that look Here Does that look like a pig Or a beaver Hmm But oh Mandy Swarovski Crystals oh Yeah That is nice but okay the condensation Is is uh pretty much gone on this side But on this side we still have Condensation this is in the inside you See it's not on the outside Oh okay but you see this car does not Colgate every time we arrive even at the First starting session we don't Colgate

And even the Mercedes eqs Colgate on the First session even the fat e-tron with a New battery Colgate on the first session This one does not hold it But it tends to lock and unlock like Crazy Okay whatever yeah I think this time I'm Going to go on Stop doing that I think it's the key is that the right Threshold where it triggers the lock Unlock All right we're almost good to go 25 Minute Johnny stop 63 yeah Um this time we will go straight to well We will skip speculum we go straight to Drumstart yeah so that's 224 kilometers The car estimate 10 uh yeah I think it Will arrive at five percent So this was a much needed stop only 25 Minutes and we are already at 63 percent Oh Okay let's go All right this is the last joining Session we're getting one yeah oh yes We're not colgating Maximum speed oh yeah I arrive with Three percent So the last stop well actually there's No now we go for 1 000 kilometer we have This one okay I measured actually we Have no measurement error here so this Is spot on this is German Precision So that means we have to drive another

100 and was it 118 kilometers All right uh oh man it's a bit busy over Here we have cars charging on that side We have a car charging on this side oh Let me go to Circle K then All right I don't know if you can see Anything but we are trying to 50 minutes And we are good to go 45 percent Oh You see the clock now 8 29 we have no Deductions today so you mean that we are Now at the 8 hours and 45 minute Mark in One minute and we have done 886 Kilometers oh we need to do another 114 kilometers fortunately it's quite Clear over here but hopefully it's also Clear all the way to Oslo so we'll see Let's just hunker down and Hammer it All right let's do the calm down 991 2 993 994 995 996 997 998 One thousand time nine twenty seven wait Wait that means nine hours and 40 Minutes whoa wait wait wait I have to Check it out to recalculate because Um we now have 13 I have to calculate How much convenient charge we have Yeah okay okay let's get back to Austin

First But the consumption by the way 278. oh Okay not too shabby All right we are back in Oslo so yes you Know the whole convenient charge I can Usually deduct a couple of minutes Because we charge extra to get straight Home here but I calculated that we can Only deduct around three to four minutes So it will still put as the 9 hours and 40 minute Mark so if you look at the Table you see that which car in this Similar class uh was you know what time Well et7 is similar it's fairly large It's a Don you can't fold the seats 87 Managed the batteries of twice so that's Why the 87 was actually faster but 87 is Not really a worthy competitor is it Because it's just a premium car but this Is proper luxury this BMW well okay Um e-tron GT yeah I'm not sure now it's More like a GT car this is a limousine Right but I can just tell you that the I I4 M50 during summer had the exact same Time how is that possible what it has a Smaller battery that's one thing but it Was actually rapid gating that one Supposedly had low coolant so yeah it Had problems with overheating and then They charged slow but I guess maybe Porsche Thai can cross tourism or could Match this but somehow the closest Reason also this is a 940 even though it Charged faster I'm not sure what the

Heck happened there maybe there were Some cold gate going on or something I'm Not sure but um okay one worthy Competitor is Mercedes eqs for some Reason the eqs did it in 950 huh 10 Minutes slower uh eqs also had similar Temperature as we had today but actually The eqs has a disadvantage because it Doesn't have heat pump it has heat Scavenging so it scavenges heat from the From the electric motors the heat of the Cabin but it seems to not be that Efficient because eqs in summer is quite Efficient but in Winter then the Equus Struggles with high consumption that's Probably why we beat the eqs but don't Know that but also when I did the recent Test with the fat Equus it colgated Initially and then it went kind of it Went quite fast and actually faster than This one here it can Peak at 207 Kilowatt whereas this one Peaks at Roughly 198 sometimes maybe it hits 200. But the equals also slightly corrugated Towards the end whereas today with the BMV i7 it was consistent every time from The first to the last turning session Nice and flat Chronicle maximum speed as What what you can expect Um and also another thing I notice is That I didn't have to run the heater too hard Because it seems like this car is well Insulated like even when it was -2

Degrees Celsius outside I felt nice and Warm in here it could maybe be because They have this these heaters on the arm Rest or I don't know if that helps but It just felt nice and comfy in there but I think that's Uh no uh no surprise because you know This car is insulated like a tank and It's also heavy as a tank but at least It helps for keeping the coal outside And the heat inside here so yeah Um I think this is actually what I Already said it earlier right that the Eqs the fat Equus was the most Comfortable car well maybe it was beaten By the i7 because this i7 is comfortable In the different way the the eqs SUV is Spacious of course but it also rides Like a freaking boat whereas this one I Feel like it's way tighter it it you Know it sits right between the model S And the eqs equals the regular ones are Done feels a little bit both and then Tesla feels a little bit harsh Here we have the Comfort but also the Firmness and the sportiness so I Actually like the ride here a lot and The whole soundproof and everything But I'll probably still go for the eqs Because it's more practical than this Sedan opening here but okay but anyway The test is a test and this car beat the Eqs so that's going to be it for now I Hope you guys enjoyed this video as

Always thank you for watching and talk To you later

Electric City Vehicles Cars Power

Electric City Vehicles Cars Power

The future of transportation in this country rests on the ability to make clean, safe, and reliable electric vehicles. That’s why President Biden has made it a priority to build a national network of 500,000 charging stations, give drivers confidence that they can charge their cars anywhere, spur domestic manufacturing jobs, and support his goal of 50% of vehicles being powered by EVs by 2030.

Today, there are more than three million EVs on the road and 130,000 public charging ports across the country. Despite the success of this program, there’s still much work to be done.

With a few simple steps, you can make your EV experience as convenient and easy as possible. Start by identifying a charging location that will work for you, whether at home or at work.

If your home has a power outlet, you can install a charger that uses the same type of 240-volt outlet as your laundry dryer or electric oven (called Level 2 charging). For condos and apartments, see if your building can install a standardized Level 1 charger for quick charging.

When you’re ready to buy an EV, use the Clean Energy Research Institute Consumer Guide to find the right model for your driving habits and family size. The Guide includes information on EV range, battery life, and battery cost so you can make an informed decision about what EV is right for you.

The EPA rates an electric vehicle’s efficiency by MPGe, which is similar to a miles-per-gallon rating for gas-powered vehicles. Look for models with MPGe ratings of at least 80 miles per charge and class-leading ranges.
