This video was brought to you by Steinberg a better world planner Mr Green Camp power and Marcus Beale Yo what's up we are now in Chiang Mai And we are getting ready for Sunday Driving on the weekday of course with The mg4 this is the 51 kilowatt hour lfp Battery which is available in Thailand And we'll see how far we can go in a Single charge when we drive slow and we Will do 80 kilometers per hour on the Speed which is around 79 78 kilometers Per hour GPS speed just like the other Cars and I figured out that by driving Like this it actually very well matches When following speed limits in Norway so Right we are topping up now to 100 Percent Wow the car looks nice I have to say Yeah and I can show you inside Okay See how to turn on natural switch on the ND filter a little bit yeah we are Almost at 100 now it says 99 I think uh The range the displayed range is Supposed to be 365 kilometers once we've Hit 100 So the plan is to drive from Here Chiang Mai to somewhere around here Which is camping pit I don't know if you Can see it or not Yeah that's 378 kilometers from here and then we Might have to drive a little bit back And forth to go deep we'll see yeah uh
My guess is my prediction is that we Might consume 125 watt hour per Kilometer and then we can go 400 Kilometers this car has I measured to Have uh well at least today we should Get roughly 50 kilowatt hour out of the Battery so right wait a little bit more And then I guess off we go All right and now we are cruising at 80 Kilometers per hour which is 79 on GPS 78.79 okay okay that's good enough yeah Right and then also when I switch on the ECO mode and everything then the the Estimate range goes up okay so you can See here that um I'm now using uh eco Mode here on the driving and also energy Saving mode is on I don't know what the Heck it does but whatever so it's around Two in the afternoon now you know I tend To arrive in uh in Bangkok quite late Lately I've been arriving there like Freaking three at night four at night so Hopefully I will not be too late in Bangkok and Tomorrow by the way spoiler alert I'm Going to pick up an eqs 500 4matic so I Have never tried the 500 before it has Slightly less horsepower than the the 580 I drive in Norway so that would be Interesting to test out in Thailand oh Yeah I'm looking forward for that one Also but today it's all about the mg you See it it has a little bit uneven Breaking or region it's it regenes a
Little bit down the hill when you need To slow down but then I feel like it's Also using friction brake that could be The reason why this car is not that Efficient so okay uh fortunately we Don't have that many Hills but they are A little bit up and down So um yeah I will try to save energy When I can But I also don't want to drive too fast Yeah you see this is a realistic test Because See how slow the Thai people are driving Huh you see how slow they're driving I even have to overthink this guy Another important thing here is the Elevation change you see we are at Roughly 260 meter of sea level and then By the time we end we are going to be Close to maybe like 30 meter over sea Level and then this car weighs 1 750 kilograms so I will compensate for The elevation change since we can't do An ABA I mean we can't do it but we want To waste a lot of time wow these guys Drive really slow but yeah so I think we Have to in this case the duct roughly 1.6 to 1.8 kilowatt hour uh well I mean Or or yeah depending on how you see it So we'll see once we get uh further down The road Thank you We are now in lampang at the PTT station I just stopped here to pee but I also
Need to find a drugstore or medicine Store because I have this I know it's Like a little wound I it's I heard from The live stream people Thai people like It's some kind of bed bug that bites me Here and then it tries to kind of I don't know it swollens up a little bit And it actually it's a little bit Painful every time I blink so let's try To find some medicine maybe somewhere I'm not sure where they say maybe over Here at the bottle station but I don't See any uh drugstore here so we might Have to keep driving and then look for The sign I I know a little a few words Of Thai so I know roughly what the Yeah Yeah it's called yeah so we have to look For that one but first a little pit stop At the restroom Okay whatever Um I just skipped the drugstore whatever I use some medicine for uh mosquito Bites so hopefully it works well yeah Anyway now we have 120 watt hour per Kilometer wow that is quite good I think it's time to say ionic five go Home because classic I don't think we'll Be hovering at 100 watt hour per Kilometer but okay anyway yeah but we Did go down a little bit here you see Elevation so you went around 70 meters Downhill so for that helps so right now I project that we will consume roughly 125 watt hour kilometer and we can go
400 kilometers but we have to see Because the test ain't over yet yeah we Still have to drive far but finally we Have arrived in the smooth as well Smooth ish asphalt for Thai standard This is quite smooth yeah So now I'm just gonna enjoy the ride and Then what is the temperature oh we Have 30.5 degrees Celsius outside oh This is the real deal man hot weather And Sunday driving oh yeah oh Shitty rolls oh Thank you All right the Sun is setting you can see It wow that's a beautiful sunset as Always in Thailand but yeah so it's now Six in the evening and we have we're Driven for Four hours yeah wow and we're down to 28 Now so the test is getting close to the End but we still actually according to Trip meter we still I mean we still have To drive another 124 kilometers until we Are all out Yeah so um yeah I'm not sure what to do Yet I'll see I guess once we get closer To our charger and stuff like that but I'll just show that this car is so buggy We have We have uh we supposedly we used a big Portion of it was uh was AC now that's Misreported Yeah and then this one since last charge Then it seems like we have we have
Almost not used anything for AC that is Also kind of weird yeah it's buggy but At least right now we turn off HVAC you Can see here that AC is off Yeah because outside temperature is now 27.5 degrees And since it's not Sunny then this is Actually bearable so remember guys that No fans is always better than only fans And then look here by the way the Consumption is staggering low well okay Okay not as good as model y River Drive But still pretty good 11 11 119 watt Hour programmer that is actually very Good Thank you Thank you This is it we're gonna end it here I First I consider should I go to the PT Charger but there was another car Charging there so we are actually going To a PA charger in four kilometers it's A 25 kilowatt DC fast charger it's the Best solution now yes so we are down to 11 uh not 10 which means that we should Arrived it with around eight percent uh Or actually nine percent yeah but that's Good enough to estimate everything I Don't want to arrive in in Bangkok too Late so yes look at that consumption 117 Yeah I still have HVAC on off I mean I Have it I had it on for a little bit Because it's kind of uh yeah it got a Little bit hot but now it's 24 so that's
Just perfect so yes we're gonna see now This is the first time I will try the 25 Kilowatt fast charger We are finally here this is the first Time I visited this place actually it's A very nice pit stop right by the Highway Zip Zip in here and it's a 25 Kilowatt charger so the good thing about This one is that it doesn't need that Powerful grid connection maybe you need Almost 30 kilowatts from the grid and This is actually made in Thailand I can Show you here the the info plater There Yeah So it's um interesting concept because I Guess it doesn't cost too much to Install these Charters but I think Actually shopping mods would be perfect Spot because you kind of need to oh There is also some some screen oh look At this there's some screen here okay Actually the charter reports sending 25.6 kilowatt but then inside the car we We get slightly less than that so There's a little bit of of charging loss But this is Well fast is charging okay Um so by the way the plan by the way is That we need to top up a little bit and Then get over we need to drive 60 63 kilometers a little bit over 60 Kilometers to a portota station and then We can charge a little bit longer there
We will only get 70 kilowatt 200 amp but It's good enough yeah because the other Charger was shared anyway so it's not Much to see here this is a you know PA Is the provisional electricity Authority They are like the grid company in Thailand and they set up money on these Uh brightness for live quality yes now By the setup this is a PA office they Have several this of course all over Thailand and they set the money on these So actually it's it's kind of like a Lifesaver if you really need to top up Then this is good enough yeah Okay yeah so you see we get a little bit More than it was within 25.5 something From the from the charger and then we Get 24.5 24.9 into the battery after a Little bit of losses so yeah I'll take It I'll take it Now actually I need to charge a little Bit more and then we can get over to Knock on someone all right I went to the Restroom they have restroom over there There this place is actually open 24 7 Which is great oh I think because they Need they need to have a guard here in Case something happened with the Electricity they probably have to yeah Go and rescue and fix the electricity That actually makes sense okay but Um we're going to drive 64 kilometers here's the dilemma I have Booked a charger there at the potter
Station but uh I booked it from eight And then 10 minutes after eight it's Going to be expired and then it would be Walking and it's free for all so I Better hurry over there I I don't know How the heck I'm gonna do this because I Still need to drive roughly 45 minutes Oh I'll be late I think I will lose My spot but okay whatever and I Estimated that I need to spend 21 so I Could leave now and maybe arrive with One percent so I will just wait maybe For 24 25 and then I guess towards the End I can hammer it all right let's go Foreign We have found that the pet charger but Actually on the opposite side because on The other side there I arrived six Minutes to that I arrived 16 minutes Past eight and then 10 minutes past it Became working and then another tree was Charging over there I tried AC for a Little bit and then I figured out oh This side is available so there was just A 650 meter U-turn and I'm here I came Here with one percent left holy macaroni Oh that's that's going deep in Thailand So now we are charging taking 68 Kilowatt oh but then the freaking the Freaking Reservation system booking system I have Time slot until in half hour half an Hour it will stop charging Fortunately this car charger is
Relatively fast so we have half an hour To grab some food I guess go to the Restroom and then we can plan the next Stop but from here it should be fairly Easy to stop I prefer to stop at the the PT station because then I will get 85 Kilowatt but this one 68 kilowatt I'll Take it Okay this is the place I came here uh When I had the the street food over There and then everything else was Closed but today fortunately we are here Not too late so we have some pork with Some rice here we have five star that's Chicken we have some some Bakery stuff Over there but I'm going for this one I Want some rice with pork so this is this Is a grilled pork neck oh yeah All right we are now sitting here at the Table And then the car is charging over there And I was about to eat the pork And then the dog came Poor dog it's a female She's quite skinny oh where you go I think I need to buy another one yeah We are giving this to the dog Foreign Okay Yeah yeah King Kong Um Foreign We're back here this time I ordered
Twice and two sets but without the soda And without sauce just so I will give One extra set for the dog and then one Set for for the human And the reason why I buy extra food is Because it's not too expensive over here And the the dog it's a it's a female and I think she has puppies somewhere I Think that's what the live stream said So yeah and you know I also have a dog And I'm hungry so I know how it feels to Be hungry so um Yeah unfortunately there are lots of Homeless dogs in Thailand so I can't Really help all of them but at least This one when she showed up she looked At me I was like I can't eat that food man yeah but okay Look look she's so skinny and she was Over there I wonder if she has her Purpose hidden over there Yeah and she's trying to produce milk Well at least she's not aggressive or Anything but she didn't finish Everything I think she's smart enough to Go for the proteins All right you know I should have gone For some fat oh there is some some Fatty pork but okay whatever let me give This to uh the dog Yeah you like that oh yeah go for the go For the protein yeah Anybody Madonna
Um Okay in China okay Right so the time I was kind of messing Around with the dog for a while and then I realized that the charting stopped now We are charging again on the other side So you see we were just jogging over There and then I tried to replug over There but then someone else booked that Slot so then I have to U-turn and come Back here well I kind of need to come Here anyway because this is the way South anyway so oh freaking booklet System man oh Right but now we are at least charging And we we have a little bit High Juice But I need food man so we are charting Kind of slow but whatever uh yeah we Just charge here and then we can hammer It for a while All right dinner for tonight is well I'm About to say but dog food but we have Rice with uh grilled pork neck with Ginger of course let me try the pork Neck here No wonder why the dog was choking Mmm There's some good I'll be charged to 92 it's kind of slow This charging session here is not very Fast but whatever we we had to do some Biological stuff okay anyway uh the next Stop I think is going to be 177
Kilometers from here it's uh um a PT Station oh no actually it's not it's an Alexa station uh so we will hopefully Get 85 kilowatt over there if no one is Charging there so let's go All right I think we are close to uh I'm Not sure where we are right now Yeah China Okay whatever we are getting close to Bangkok and the roads have a nice 120 Zone I'm going at 120 plus VT and I Gotta say man this car just rides Wonderfully okay we're going at 100 yeah Not too fast but It feels quick yeah even on Motorway Speeds I can I can quickly accelerate Past some right land Huggers and of Course if I see someone coming fast from Behind I will always uh uh get over to The left lane and let them pass but but Man this car is just so so nice to drive Fairly quiet good soundproofing nice Handling nice ride almost no body roll And it just rides confidently over the Bumps without too much bounciness And it's also fairly quick yeah okay Over here you see in Diane Kang it was Struggling with with not enough torque But over here It actually does a pretty good job and It feels fairly Nimble over here I'm Just using normal mode even I'm not even Using sport mode so really really Impressive how this car rides man just
Sometimes I forget that we are driving a Cheap Chinese EV huh like are we are we Driving a German car now we're driving a Cheap Chinese TV and it does it so well I am really really impressed yeah this Car is Tesla Beyond approved really Summer it consumption okay not too bad 222 watts of a kilometer now yeah all Right just gonna hammer it because we Say we charge enough so we better burn The juice get over to Bangkok not too Late Oh yeah we are finally at the last Charging stop this is a very nice Resting I also came here with a bowl by The way this is called Um let me try to pronounce it correctly That's that's the name so we have some Store there's some some uh what's it Called Suki store over there that closes Really late like five in the morning or Some yeah and then over here we Have Burger King uh I think it's closed KFC I think it's open 24 7. so I'm going For some uh yeah I I have to go to the Toilet now type 3C I don't know What I ate but nah All right but let's check the charting First Oh yeah we're getting 85 kilowatt here Yeah on the ptt's charger we are getting Only 70 kilowatts so I'll take it I'll Take it Okay charges over there we have 7-eleven
Here And then we have plenty of toilets Around here yeah nice and clean The the Right I went to the restroom I bought a Little bit of food uh yeah just some Rice and some pork well it was chicken I'm not sure yeah but you see we have Stayed here 18 minutes on there and this Car has a relatively small battery and It's not that thirsty so yeah we are Already at 65 percent so I have to drive 60 more kilometers to towards Bangkok And yeah whatever we will charge to Maybe 80 or more by the time we finish Eating But anyway let me do the summary of the Sunday driving so yeah um this is kind Of interesting uh the the trip meet the Reported 391.5 kilometers driven we Actually did Drive roughly 100 meat Extra when we stopped and had a little Pit stop at the Park Hotel station but When we look at Google Google actually Reported us 401 kilometers so this car Under reports by as much as 2.4 percent Uh the highest I've seen it was an Eyepiece with 2.7 on the reporting so It's not like I mean it's still Realistic yeah Um so that means that when we correct For the Under reporting it means Um we have lower consumption than that But then remember that we have one uh
Roughly 200 something meter of elevation Change downhill which is an advantage One kilowatt hour Advantage if you take One kilowatt hour divided by 400 meters Oh sorry 400 kilometers we get roughly 2.5 Watt hour per kilometer and then you Have to take the consumption and add it Again so it then becomes 116 watt hour Per kilometer yeah so that's the table You see so okay Um the range is not the best for this Car but remember that this is the Smallest battery or is it the smallest Battery uh not actually it's a classic Ionic but still you know The consumption here is actually not That bad when you drive slow so that's That's good that we we get this result I Was hoping for it also because it seems Like um maybe what what kind of ruins The consumption on this car is not the Best drug coefficient but okay not the Worst either so I'd say it's actually Quite good for for a car that has a Relatively small battery yeah I have to Say man so now we're just going to Charge a bit more and then we have to go To Bangkok yes the video will end there This is like this is like the the Sunday Driving extended version yeah Thank you We'll find that hotel and this is the Total trip from wait from start And I think this is from Chiang Mai yeah
I'm not trying to think now but close Enough so the consumption was low Because of the Sunday driving naturally So yeah I guess it's what 10 hours and 22. is That Yeah I think that's the driving without Any idling or I'm not sure but okay Whatever Man this this hotel is kind of shabby uh It's cheap and it's close to the where I Usually choose the hotel close to the Thicker point or the delivery point so I'm just around 10 15 minutes away from From the place where I'm going to return The the mg tomorrow so But next time I might try to choose Another hotel a slightly better Hotel Because this one we have to pass a Freaking Market every time I thought it Was just in the morning but it seems Like it's also a night market I was like Okay but I think I would just end it Here so as usual I will pack all my Stuff and then do the preparation and Then yeah shower and everything and Tomorrow we have to do a little bit of Stuff around Bangkok before we leave but Then we'll pick up EQ s 500 I've tried Equest 580 but the 500 is actually Manufactured no it's assembled in Thailand to get some tax reduction and Then according to the Specter the ecos 500 has slightly less horsepower than
The eqs 580 but it's also overdrive and Big battery and everything so we're Going to do Bangkok challenge tomorrow With the request oh I'm looking forward To that but anyway I think that's gonna Be it for now the mg4 is awesome for its Price it's actually quite awesome yeah That's it my takeaway yeah so that's Gonna be it for now 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 automotive industry is catching on to the idea of a more zero-emission future, and automakers are investing a lot of money into new models powered by batteries. Some are pledging to make only EVs by 2035 and to sell 40% of their fleet this way.
Tesla Ford GM Power Manufacturing
The auto industry has made a huge commitment to EVs, and the future of American transportation looks bright. The automakers are bringing a variety of vehicles to market, from sedans and SUVs to pickup trucks and vans.
Many EVs are equipped with a long-range battery, and can travel hundreds of miles on a single charge. These vehicles can be a good choice for drivers who live in urban areas or have frequent short trips.
Several of the most popular EVs can also tow up to 10,000 pounds, and are equipped with Class-leading MPGe (miles per gallon of electricity) ratings. The Tesla Model X, for example, has a 70 MPGe combined rating, which means it can get up to 230 miles on a single charge.
Mazda MX-30 PHEV
A little smaller than the Renault Zoe, the Mazda MX-30 is a small electric city car that can fit into most people’s lives. It’s well-equipped, has a spacious interior, and is good to drive. Despite its modest power and weight, it has enough kick to accelerate quickly from a standstill. It also has a Sport mode, which remaps the motor to provide maximum torque a little earlier than normal.
