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 Oslo and We're getting ready for yet another 1 000 kilometer challenge it's on a Freaking 1 000 kilometers per year Nowadays but this is the last one for Now so yes it's Neo et5 this is possibly The fastest 1 000 kilometer challenge With battery swap uh it's slightly Smaller than 87 so it should be able to Be more efficient and of course it's More efficient than those Neo SUVs and This time we are doing the real uh the Real root you know just like the other Ones not where I go to the same battery Substation again that was just a test Really like a proof of concept but yeah So we're getting ready now we're trying To get back to 100 and this is very Important because there is opening hours On the swap stations so we are three Hours away from Broadway Or yeah there's another one for the note But yeah we have to go for World Bank so We're timing it now so that we're going To start exactly at four in the morning And by the time we reach volleyball the Swap station will be open so you see in The past news they had the charting uh Charge port on this side but finally Neil got it right they now have the Chart for it on the list left side with
The right side not the right side with The wrong side and it opens up upwards Is that the coincidence just like Volkswagen id7 And you see her in the back We have nice space nice seats ambient Like what the ambient light off right Now this is going to be a model 3 expand P7 rival Look here Yeah What the heck I mean It's a Chinese car but Why does it sound so cheap oh oh Ah the storm bike bottle yeah how can I Forget it All right so turn off power key mode Okay turn off you see here we're gonna Drive 360 kilometers hey wait what Happened to the studs Oh it's there it's there it's cycling Through that there I don't know why you Need to cycle through Two two variables and then the third one Why can't you just show it well if you Swipe down no okay whatever but when it Says like this that it doesn't show me Estimated range of the Rival it means That it can barely make it there or Maybe not we'll see but yeah the swap Station over there first of all I cannot Search for it when I search for Power Swap while back it will only show stuff Around here so that's also weird but
Okay we have to start in four minutes no Sorry in six minutes I don't know what's Up with this with bullets I they're Stalking me [Music] Everything has been timed now we are Fully charged which means that we are Not spending too much energy past the Points you see here it will actually Start counting here kilowatt hour Um so we we start with almost full Battery we're only idle for five minutes Before we start and also another thing I Need to write down is I cannot reset These trip stats Um Yes it's silly and then every time we we Plug it in or swap it will reset uh Reset some of these value so I have to Look at this one and then I have to add 1000 and that's going to be 1 000 Kilometer this car under reported this And by point four percent so we can just Count it as one thousand so there that So right let me do all the preparations And then we start exactly at four and oh Yeah the reason why we have to start Exactly at four is that I'm gonna time It so we get over to the swap station When it opens if I start later we will Hit more traffic if I start too early we Will arrive at the Swap station too Early and it won't be open by then so a Little bit clumsy timing but I think we
Can make it Right off we go now and the first thing I noticed with the et5 is that it is Nice and quiet in there okay we have Nokia Plata R5 EV tires especially EV is Important because that means that it has The acoustic foam and it's still winter Tires which means that it's soft and it Well I got hammered by the train now if You guys see it okay but um so it's nice And quiet here but it doesn't have Double glazed Windows even And also the comfort is nice so compared To model 3. this 87 has better Soundproofing and better ride Comfort Than the Tesla and also Ambient light anyone I know I can't Demonstrate now but soft close anyone Huh Only mine is that Auto's there Is going like exactly It's more like pulsating Constantly and then the truth is going Constantly and you cannot change it you Cannot tune it you cannot avoid it and Then sometimes if there are mergers And then in a hard or it's not a Hardcore but in the in the some of the Curves especially when we get to around Tournament now and monkey doll on the Moral way it would just zigzag a little Bit on the curves so yeah hopefully Neo Fixes that one day one day if Neo and Next bank and other Chinese Brands fix
That because it it seems to be Standard on the Chinese cars if they fix It make it smooth like a German car or a Tesla then it's gonna be freaking game Over Yeah for someone [Music] [Music] We are now at home we have to take one Quick pit stop here just to reach Wallburg we arrive here with somewhat Low use and we don't not have enough to Go to Why by straight there but also Very important to stop here because I Need to go to the restroom because at World Bank I will not be able to pee but I calculate that I need to spend 12 Percent And I have nine percent now so if I get Roughly 15 to 17 that should be enough To go to Wild by Which is 39 kilometers from here and This year the swap station has not Opened yet it says closed but they will Open at seven Okay let's quickly go to the restroom Quick pit stop here All right the hand of quick uh Restaurant break we charge for five Minutes and we should have enough juice Now to go to wire back and swap there [Music] Thank you [Music]
[Music] We are now at the Swap station and an Et7 just pull up Time 7 15. oh I don't want to interfere With that okay 7 15 so we have to wait Now let's see how long we have to wait We actually encounter Schwab style you See this is the weakness of the of the Battery swap system is that you only Need one car in front of you to create Style whereas uh ionity over there with Six I think it was six or eight stalls You actually need eight cars in front of You to create Style What is 16 now okay Let me record the data here at least Write down all the stats while we are Waiting It's your turn tap to start okay six Minutes it took huh well let me see how To swipe here Start Please park your vehicle manually into The start area of Power Swap and then Press the brake pedal Please press the brake pedal Nicely done now you can tap to start Parking into the power swaps we are Parking now be aware of your Surroundings and Foster on YouTube not Open any door or take over the steering Wheel you can press the brake panel to Control the speed 87 is always there I think it's it
Belongs to Neo and that there is a dude There even though he doesn't do anything Unless it's necessary they try to make It unmanned now which is good I think The the swap stations in China they are Unmanned the auto part will always do This Back up and then do this one it doesn't Take the full turn in the first uh Attempt For some reason maybe you just want to Align up properly and I think program to do but it means it is A little bit slower but the white 87 Needed six minutes so we're going to Deduct six minutes because it is so Random whether you hit a star or not so It's unfair to count it but I've just Showing you that if Sharing If you're unlucky You will the the swap time or the your Swap thing will be six minutes slower Yeah Power Swap is about to start during This time the vehicle May shake and make Noise this is normal do not open any Door shift gears or press the brake Pedal Yeah so what the Neo is what Nomi is Saying do not open the door which means That you are not allowed to leave the Car if you leave the car The swap process will be interrupted so You have to stay here that's the
Downside of this swap thing There we go and now I think the 12 volt Is yeah 12 volts is dead now Well actually is it As long as we have light here that means That it's what ah I bet yeah the 12 volt Is never dead yeah Uh because uh you you have to be able to Operate the doors if you have to but the 12 volt for USB has been cut out and the 12 volt for the system here yeah that Makes sense but actually now the 12 now This one Disappeared maybe the trouble is Actually dead I could be wrong there But I can also show you again here Now it takes the battery out Okay it's been six minutes now since we Initiated the swap Norm is alive We should get the green Light soon I get the impression of the the swap Process has speeded up during the et7 Run I did earlier this year it was Remarkably slow So that was unfair for the et7 Run We could have shaved off at least five Minutes maybe from that test Okay So let me see now uh six minutes in um No Miss alive which means the 12 yeah The 12 volt is alive and you can see Here the light is active again
But green but Um can I Okay okay Go go go that was oh yeah that was six Minutes of show up time yeah six minutes Exactly whoa nice Not too bad we are back in the game with 90 battery Go go go go to helzing boy Guys look like that's the white 87 that Was in front of me you see what he did He swapped before me he went to the gas Station and after six minutes when I was Ready he was on the world so he spent Roughly 12 minutes total not six minutes For the actual swap that is a prime Example on what how it actually works in Real life Wow Oh I just overtook that 87 and when I Passed him I saw that he was holding Food It's funny man that is exactly how I Imagine some people would do it they Would swap go to the gas station pee What would Phantom break no don't do That Watch out for merging cars uh that Volvo Was not remotely closed emerging yeah The the Thunder brakes happens a lot Like during a 1 000 kilometer challenge With the el7 I think it happened around 10 times that It it thought the car in front I would Typically be in the yeah it always
Happens when I'm in the left lane and Then the car thinks that the car in Front here for example to the right Wants to merge but in many many cases The car is not even remotely close to The midline Okay anyway back to the guy the 87 that Is a prime example he swapped he went to The gas station grabbed some food and Now he's eating while driving And he actually spent 12 minutes total On that uh swap stop swap stop yeah All right as usual next stop is going to Be uh Helsing Borg so ah and then it Goes back there yeah but you see here we Have this swipe thing here swipe menu And you see that a warmer battery it's Grayed out You cannot heat up the battery maybe Because it's already warm enough from The swap station yeah I've heard that it Was keeping it at 20 degrees Celsius so Yeah no preheating needed I guess Foreign [Music] [Music] Look we spent 47 getting here which Means that I just have to top five Percent and then go for it again I went to restroom I bought some food I'm going to eat and drink while we're Driving yeah just show here quickly we Have 49 now oh it's charging 95 yeah That's okay let me check how long did we
Charge we should have enough now a Little bit of margin we charge for four Minutes So by the time I unplug it it's probably Going to be five minutes this is so much Faster than the the other one okay let's Get ready Wow that was roughly four and a half Minutes of uh charting stop and we are Back on the road six minutes total but You see it's a bit sunny outside and Then you can just do this Ventilation oh yeah cat massage oh yeah Does your Tesla have that huh wait no I thought so [Music] [Music] Thank you [Music] [Music] Oh we're almost at the World Bank Swap station now but I have one percent Left I miscalculated Um I thought we had headwind on the way South and then Tailwind now well I was Wrong we have a headwind on the way South Eight of all my margins and we will Hopefully arrived it with zero percent Maybe Usually I hammer a little bit faster Than this but now I have to be careful Don't give me the new crawl okay
We made it here one percent left Actually point eight percent left okay Let me see just place it here Park and then you have to go home And then start Please park your vehicle nicely done now You can tap to start parking in into the Power we are parking now be aware of Your surroundings I'm faster Or take over the steering wheel you can Press the brake panel to control the Speed yes kid Okay let me see this was uh two minutes Past ten we arrived here and then yeah Swap start we are in the swap the swap Process started two minutes past ten All right and the same thing here let me Just show you initially what happens Yeah it will always do this the same Motion every time We could save we could shave off 30 Seconds if we can do this in one swoop Right [Music] Oh maybe I can have a little food but Yeah let's let's eat now I'm hungry we Can eat while we are waiting for the Swap to happen well I have to I have to Press Preparing this may take some time Please wait Straighten okay neutral okay Do I need to press another Power Swap is About to start okay this time vehicle
May shake and make noise Well the swap is so fast it's been five Minutes now since we initiated and Started backing up actually it has to be Initiated outside there so I haven't Finished my food yet you see I ate half Of it and no meat alive usually that's What happens first no me is alive and Then in roughly one more minute then we Can drive out and then the lights will Turn green again And there's some guys over there what is That the battery swap oh damn yeah okay Let's see here wait no it died again What uh no no okay she's lying right And not to get ready to leave now Wait for it it's gonna turn green Let me see yeah seems to be very Consistent now six minutes and then the The weird stuff we had with the el7 that It booted up slow that was two minutes That we actually deducted because it was An irregularity I never seen it happen Anymore Ever since that time it was like a One-time hiccup or some Uh well now I'm not sure if it's Probably doing some kind of self-test You can see in the mirror there that we Are Just waiting for something Yeah we're waiting for the green light The green light on okay uh Wait power saw complete let's go let's
Go yes Let me see a time yeah eight that was Exactly six minutes Off we go to storm start oh yeah Hammer Time Yeah bye bye Tesla hey Oh man this car is just so nice and Comfy You know good soundproofing good Suspension German you have the German Feel and everything here Like I feel like I'm sitting in a German Car right yeah Even though this is a Chinese car yeah Yeah wait what was that That's exist I'm gonna charge it Even the car speaks German to me huh It's like I am in Bavaria I'm home hell Guy this is wait the pilot is talking to Me Are you uh no Miss no me are you uh Helga's daughter Hmm Okay okay let me try something hello me Okay Hey NuMe hey Massage house Massage house I'm probably oh What I know me I know me hello My auto is smoothish Country Okay whatever I mean she's still a child
You know so she doesn't understand Everything yet But that's really cool man Foreign [Music] [Music] Foreign Stop and there's been some delays some Detours because of road construction or I don't know uh various style and stuff But we have now 23 minutes of total Deduction and We came here with 28 and I calculated we Need 40 5 to reach home Uh oh can you see that let me check here Oh look at that we're getting maximum Speed I don't know if you can see it I know That it is so hard to see it I have to hurry I had to go to the Restroom now Wow it's almost impossible look at the Screen But look at that we're in charge for Five minutes Okay I need 45 a couple of more minutes And then we're good to go but we also Have to uh we can also deduct a couple Of minutes for convenient charge think We're going to go straight back home Maybe yeah we'll see I have to calculate Look at that speed oh Okay I worked out at the convenient
Charge uh we can deduct two minutes so That means we have 25 minute total Deduction Uh we're almost good to go 45 and we can Go and look here so the this wait this One needs to be oh no this one 3742 so in 120 kilometers roughly we will hit 99 And time wise we haven't even hit the Eight hour mark we count as if we Started at 4 25 Not even eight hour mark and we are Going to leave already Let's go let's set a new record Wow that was an eight minute charting Stop and you see here we still haven't Hit the eight hour mark yet and if we Look at the distance we need here it it Needs to be over here it needs to be 3742 kilometers All right the passport is ready we are Ready to get back to Norway let's go Okay you know what when I do the range Test I checked that or I measured that This car under reports Distance by point Four percent normally I don't count it But point four percent is actually four Kilometers which would count to three Seven Three eight Yeah which is in 500 meters right 996 Short one the number seven No no eight No no no nine
No no no nine There one thousand check here Consumption okay 29 kilowatt hour and Time Whoa thing eight hours and 55 minutes Guys 8 hours 55 A new record for electric car wow All right now we're actually doing a Charting test I need to update the Joining test because the old one was Slower than now but even this one is a Bit uh I'm not sure if it's the fastest One it's so unpredictable also so Inconsistent the charging curves here it Depends on Manufacturers I guess and you cannot Always preheat it it's it was grayed out Ever since volleyball yeah but okay Anyway Uh nine okay What the heck I said nine I didn't say Neo I don't get that sorry would you mind Rephrasing it Let me go turn off Okay okay no mess off now but yeah so um Um eight hours and 55 minutes that is The fastest ever timer it was even Faster than the Neo es8 that did a pure Battery swap run but I don't count that As a valid run because it was more like Um a top reference what could be Possible if we have lots or enough swap Stations which we don't have even now in
2023 in Europe or yeah so um the the Second fastest EV that I account at Least is the equest for 50 plus and this One was 10 minutes faster you see the Power of battery swap and almost blowing My bladder But also you see that this car was Actually quite thirsty the flood even The blood and also the long-range Palladium Those runs were even colder But the Tesla consumed less energy a Bigger car a Model S with way more power Consume less energy than this et5 so This is exactly what I measured when I Did the range test is that the et5 for Some reason is quite thirsty I don't Know why is it the dry train it's Probably not there that is economic Seems to be good But uh you see this is the power Corrupted even for thirsty small car Like this that might not even have the Best range it can still be the fastest One because of uh battery swap and then Why was the the other SUVs not able to Go that fast maybe because they they Um here we just needed to top up a Little bit because the car was Relatively thirsty and we had the right Weather yeah that was also important uh And the the SUVs they had some bad Weather unfortunately and the other cars And that's why it didn't it wasn't that Fast so I guess as long as the weather
Is good or if you have 150 kilowatt hour Battery or if the bat or if the car Should be more efficient then you can Have less charging or even no charging Only swap So yeah What the heck man Not my favorite place to come here at The green but okay so yeah I think 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
A growing number of new cars are powered by electricity rather than fossil fuels. These vehicles are referred to as all-electric (EV) or plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV). EVs draw energy from the electrical grid to propel their motors, while PHEVs also use gasoline or another liquid fuel in their secondary drives for increased range when needed. All-electric vehicles are a critical step toward reducing carbon emissions and reducing dependence on foreign oil.
EV owners typically charge their cars at home, which is easy with City Light’s clean, affordable electricity. They can also charge at work, multifamily housing, or public charging stations. EVs with an onboard petrol generator, such as the Chevrolet Volt or BMW i3, offer even more flexibility by allowing drivers to switch between driving on battery and gas.
The Department of Transportation has committed to building a national network of EV chargers, focused on major highways that support the majority of long-distance trips. This investment will give drivers confidence that there will always be a place to recharge, jump start private investment in chargers and EVs, and support the President’s goal of 50 percent of new vehicles being EVs by 2030.
EVs are safe, quiet and fun to drive. They are more efficient than traditional vehicles, and they help reduce harmful air pollution in our cities. But the benefits of EVs don’t stop with tailpipe emissions: Their batteries are made from recycled materials and can be fully reused after they reach end-of-life.
