This video was brought to you by a Battery planner cam power Marcus Beale Steinberg and Bill componente Yo what's up we are now in Oslo we're Getting ready for one very important 1000 kilometer challenge with a new pole Star 2. this is the 2024 model year it Has a slightly slicky front but then Pulls the claims that they haven't this Haven't improved aerodynamics but it has New dry print more efficient driving it Has 82 kilowatt hour an upgrade I Actually measured 4.7 kilowatt hour more Net capacity its charges now at 205 Kilowatt you know the fastest pole star Ever in the 1000 kilometer challenge was 10 hours and 40 minutes now according to My spreadsheet it will do it in 955 Maybe even faster we'll see but that's a Big big Improvement 45 million rumen We'll see right so I'm not topping up on The cam power Um we're gonna go for uh hopefully Speculate I'm not sure no this is the First time you see me tested with the Leather seats Perforated and ventilated yeah man okay So here's the thing we are charging at 99 I will hope I will get as much juice As possible maybe we will start at 11 Exactly we'll see it's Friday night and I navigated to I only specular the car Claims I will arrive with 34 but I think This is this might be based on that
Drive at the speed limit which I never Do yeah so Um we have a wind from the north and Everything I also tried about the route Planner you see normally I don't use it But I try this one now According to a better replant that we Won't make it there but this might be Based on the old poster with smaller Battery and slightly less efficient mode Yeah I forgot to mention this is the Rear wheel drive by the way long range River Drive we are testing now so I bet the replanet claims that we had to Drive slow and they will make it every Three percent so we will see then Um is this gonna work yeah I'm not sure But okay let's wait a couple of minutes Hopefully to get to 100 and then we go For it All right we have 100 we're going to Start exactly at 11. hopefully we don't Have too many deductions since it's Friday night Um so the car estimates we will run with 34 but the root planner might be based On the old car less efficient smaller Battery Um I expected what was again um let me See my calculation I predict that we will arrive with 20 Roughly 20 or 19 and I predict that the Consumption is going to be 250 watt hour Per kilometer okay I'm going to reset
Here soon And then yeah we have to look at this One and I also I also know from before That this car under reports Distance by 1.5 so we have to count to 900 and 80 and 985 kilometers yeah okay in two Minutes we start [Music] Thank you We just passed now and we are down to Eight percent wow this went beyond my Expectations I was thinking I can make It no no we were we are way past Specular right now so you see we have Done 300 wait I can see here this is Better actually There we have done 303 normally it's More it's more like 305 it's 300 yeah Kilometers so far And we're down to eight percent And we're gonna make it hopefully yeah I Think so We can go to uh man Holy crap Paul star two for the win yeah More efficient motor and once again yeah Yeah they have silicone carbide Inverters now which means that it's more Efficient less heat loss so that's why The consumption is 230 AI real Consumption is around 230 watt hour per Kilometer that is really good man for a Pole star that used to be quite thirsty Before okay
Let's get over there and see if we can Get 205 kilowatt hour per hour Okay look look we have four percent Left and no power limit Our full power damn Okay Missy um charge port is in left Side with the right side not the right Side with the long side so I can take This one supposedly the Circle K here's Uh Slightly cheaper than the recharge over There okay let's plug it in Oh I just missed it it had 200 kilowatt But I wonder if it has a slight Colgate Right now look at that Um I when I did the range test I'm Supposed to get 200 kilowatt until 16 oh No wait is it going up a little bit Okay but at least this is uh still Pretty good oh yeah it goes up oh okay Maybe it's heating up the battery Wow This is a Next Level man yeah look At that oh almost 500 it seems like it's Slowly ramping up so it might have Scored it a little bit because it's Supposed to preheat the battery before Arrival but um we had low juice so maybe It was conserving a bit ensuring that we Would get here okay oh no no now it's Not throttle yeah this is one of the Throttle points seems like but it's Still blistering fast oh yeah it's it's Turning faster on the fat e-tron the Q8
Fat each one even huh how about that Okay but um I need to find I turn off HVAC right now Let me see I'm gonna do I'm sorry I'm Gonna do this let me check something Here Next stop I'm not sure where we're gonna Start but we have to stop at something Faster than 200 kilowatt so the two Supercharger is not going to cut it Unless we go to HomeStore no Okay how about if we go straight to Health symbolic I will do this one the Ikea thing here whether it's gone again Uh it's here but it doesn't show up Maybe Let me try to search for it let me see Tesla Supercharger No no no You found it I accidentally pressed oh Nice look at this wow it found it okay But the the estimation is way off It claims that I will arrive no no he Wants to chart okay okay okay whatever Let's start now let me wait and see Uh if you can make it there or not uh That is whooping oh okay it added a Charting stop there Um no no I don't okay yeah let me figure Out something here Nope what Okay okay I'm trying to figure out how To read this uh what is the total
Distance to that place Um Okay whatever I mean let me figure it Out some other way So yeah as usual I come here at night uh What's the time now Um oh it's almost two at night and Circle K over there is closed So we can't visit that one but Fortunately over here McDonald's is open 24 7. So I I need to restock on food and Drinks there and uh yeah so we have Plenty of Charters but I use these ones Because they are 300 kilowatt and I Think what is important is that those Cables here they are not water cooled But they have 500 amp capability and This car now the pole star the new one Here requires roughly 500 amp to hit the Maximum speed which means that we need To go for these Circle K Chargers or Ionity Or V3 supercharger V2 is not going to Cut it V2 is too slow Yeah look at this panel Gap here I'm Just kidding I cracked the door open Slightly so that no no what the heck I Was about to say so that the screen Stays on but the screen still turn off But look at this even at 33 we are Taking 156 kilowatts and then how long Have you been chanting now let me check We've been charging for uh
See it here Eight okay Almost nine minutes we already represent Nice All right we're almost at 70 look at That even at 66 we're taking 101 Kilowatt wow yeah okay the car now Claims we will make it there with 21 I'm Not sure uh I suspect that we might Arrive there with around between five And ten percent but this is a high speed Stretch and it's 181 kilometer stretch So yeah Um let me check outside how long we've Been charging Oh okay this stop is going to be roughly 24 minutes then Okay we want to move on damn you can see The The pole star the pixel lights working Here oh These lights are awesome look at that Look at that look oh Man I love that Volvo I mean Volvo Poster lights And they are really good the only minus Is that they tend to Blind oncoming Traffic and then they flash at me Now we have left lane camper Here freaking Dane or scheisse Okay And only the car is also quite quite Quick yeah 399 horsepower man and I think it was
Over 400 Newton meter torque so it feels A lot quicker than the the previous Front-wheel drive yes like my opinion is That EVS they need to be either Raven Drive or oven Drive From the drive is design floor and the Disadvantage for um For an EV because they don't have the Same disadvantages as faucet cars fossil Cars yeah River Drive might be Disadvantaged because you have big heavy Engine in the front but EVS they don't Follow those rules you can have 50 50 or Even Like this one around 48 52 Weight distribution no no slightly rare Heavy and then different manifest one to Drive then you just make it slightly Front heavy But River Drive is the way to go We are now on the concrete surface Around Falcon bike and the whole Embark Control this thing is loud we are even On only 20 inch wheels So um yeah I mean I pointed out this Before many years ago that the poles are True is loud and the new one doesn't Seem to have the upgrade Or yeah it seems to be more or less as Loud as the old one so it seems like Poles are only updated certain parts Like drivetrain and inverter and some Other stuff but Soundproofing seems to be more or less
The same as before So if you compare this clip to other Clips with other cars you will see that Like even Tesla managed to improve the Soundproofing over time Uh other cars uh whether the mab called The German cars they're always been Fairly quiet So yeah Okay let me show you now if I go to the Left lane You will hear that we suddenly have way Less noise because this this Lane here Is less rough as the right and the right Lane is where the trucks drive and That's why it's so rough and noisy over There So this is because the soundproofing From the road noise is somewhat poor And then I've heard recently that the Model 3 Highland they have improved both The sound and wind noise but also The noise from the ground yeah so Rumbling and stuff like that like you Know when you go back here show you Wow wow I'm guessing that 19-inch Wheels would Help Slightly and if we have some kind of Acoustic foam that will also help a Little bit but by the end of the day the Car is not good at blocking out the Noise Unfortunately
Thank you [Music] We're here I just called it briefly I Had just a little bit too much juice Yeah I came in with around 14 and yeah We had 200 kilowatts a little bit now We're down to 192 it's still pretty good Yes we're here at uh there's a helting Boy next stop is going to be by bike 143 Kilometers away yeah okay yeah it adds Turning stops automatically but okay So yeah Here you see The pole star 2 has the charge port on The left side with the right side of the Right side with the wrong side so I'm Actually parked just like a Tesla would Park and I'm not blocking for anyone huh The same in a classic ionic the same in The in the still on these cars also they Also have the charcoal on this side so Yeah V3 now you get full speed Ah but other than that There's nothing to do here I need a little bit Break by the way Just to get out of the car and I'm just Getting a little bit tired it's um What's the time now we're trying to Avoid traffic yeah it's almost four at Night So not much to do here I just have to go Pee in the bush somewhere and then wait For the charging to finish so everything Here is closed last time I came here I
Could have a Max burger at least but uh Not today so not today Okay let's go back in the car and see Yeah the car tends to fire up The a truck wants to get in let me see If you see it we'll do it still No now it's off okay All right let's keep it off oh look at This I mean the speed doesn't just drop Right away it can still maintain okay Charging speed for a while yeah this is Good Look here we have two USB C's here They're always being like this and then One is supposedly only Power and the Other one is with communication so if You want to have a car play and you Have to plug it on this one but when I Try to use this is a USB A with a USBC adapter and I it works in Pretty much all the cars I test except For maybe the Lotus Electra but okay so If I plug it in here it lights up and Then it says USB device error huh it's Not supported what what the frunk man Uh I think I never ever managed to make It work in a pole star So yeah we don't have any USB music then We just have to listen to uh the engine Running When I tried the other one The other one when you plug it in here It doesn't even blink which means that This one doesn't have the communication
Yeah it only has power Versus here let's see and then this and Then the airplane pops up again Oh well well well Okay that was a quick pit stop we are Now at 55 but look here Paul is quite quick man what the heck Right after the charge the battery is Nice and hot huh Damn man It seems like this battery likes to be Hot it doesn't replicate that much And yeah just like a Tesla battery maybe That it wants to be at 50 degrees or you Might get the best power output at 50 Degrees I'm not sure Oh okay Oh damn This car is it's just the rear wheel Drive It's just a Roman drive it's the poor Man's pole star but look look at him the Screen is a bit brighter okay okay A little Solution I also like how the display updates fast It's not a laggy display like most Legacy automakers [Music] Moves [Music] We are now advise by getting all that 200 kilowatt with z25 So I'll stay here not too long because
I'm gonna go to the speculars So yeah the sun is coming up kind of ish Soon All right but man this is okay what is This time I can see it here yeah Uh it's five at night or morning or Whatever so uh this is the coldest time Of the day right before Sunrise that uh Yeah 10 degrees outside But it was a little bit warmer during The night at least so yeah okay I think It's time for some push it's okay And then over here I'm using good old Look at that look at that it Peaks at 500 M at the low end To maintain well it actually pulls 209 Kilowatts Away from the charger wow impressive Stuff man That was an 11 minute Johnny stop I just Went to the restroom grabbed some food Drinks came back And we're good to go we charge to around 42 it's not 43 I was taking almost 140 something Kilowatts So yeah fine they have the food I did Not I could not buy anything on the Previous stops until now so yeah let's Just get some buns right or I know it's Called realistic yeah Well Fortunately we have others there that Works
Fairly okay This one works like before it tends to Hug the inner curve a little bit Sometimes it feels a little bit unstable For the most part It works good [Music] Thank you [Music] We are now at speaker Charging and getting over 200 kilowatts What's going on here what's going on Here The screen they just died With her American megatrends yeah those Treatment charges Oh okay whatever uh Yeah okay 196. oh yeah so yeah let me as Usual we do this let me show you how we Can do it several ways but the fastest Way is just to say ionity [Music] You know maybe a small mistake is that I Instead of going with the specular and Then there maybe I could have gone Straight to to uh Hawks type but then I'm not sure because then from hoax toy Back to Oslo that's 180 kilometers and Maybe this is the best deal we just go Quickly and I charge to around 45 Percent And then ride on the 200 kilowatt wave Yeah let's try that strategy Okay I can almost see it but it's 10
Degrees Celsius outside Winter is coming summer is over this is The second of September but I just went Inside the gas station I'll grab some Drinks Came back here and we are almost good to Go this car charges so fast now look 10 Minutes of charging we are at 43 and It's still taking 138 kilowatt look at The speed man look at this Really impressive man okay Um I think we are pretty much ready to go I'm just getting a little bit buffer now Because I calculated that we need to Spend around 36 percent so we should Arrive with around eight percent now and You see the car estimates the levels in The past Uh I don't know when I used the the this Estimation on pole star it was always Being a little bit too optimistic as if I needed to drive at the speed limit but Now it seems like they have improved it Because it seems to be very accurate On the past yeah so All right uh I'd buy the replant on the Other hand uh seems to be off because It's probably based on the all uh Smaller battery with less efficient Drive chain so let's get the heck out of Here I think we have enough now [Music] Thank you
[Music] Wow look at this I keep missing the Target every time because I think it's using more but it's not so 250 okay 250 might not be the best for This small sedan but Yeah it could have been worse so yeah Well actually the corrected number is Roughly 245 watt hour per kilometer okay So Um let me repeat again that we need to Go to 800 and no sorry 985 kilometers because we this car is Underreported by 1.5 percent so yeah um We need to charge a little bit you see We have to drive 130 kilometers and we Are now no no no We are 140 kilometers away from home so In this Loop we don't have to do a queen In charge because we are people 999 five Kilometers away from home and we need a Little margin anyway right so I already Calculated we need to charge to around Not really was around 45 oh yeah I have The notes here okay I'm gonna spend 42 So if I charge you let's say 47 that Should be enough Oh I have to check something here you Know this uh tritium charges they tend To be put all the time abc always be a Put but now it seems like it's working It's this one you know this this you see The same problem this is the one I Plugged in that with the Kia uh not long
Ago The the screen is kaput but the charge The RFID really works so you can plug it In show the RFID or use the app And then you can start charging but then You better be able to stop the charging Somehow right Um fortunately the pole star has this Button here I'm not going to use it now But when you press this button you will Stop charging or you can go inside here And you see if we go to here Charge You have the unlock cable here but I Don't want to be in this screen I think Actually by default it doesn't show up Because If you have something here This could Accidentally rub into that one and then Stop charging that's what happened in The past actually so I I suggested to Pull start and don't put this here or if You if you have a button like this at Least Have a confirmation are you sure you Want to stop charging right or put the Button way further up where you don't Accidentally but either way No matter where you have that button you Should have a confirmation stop judging Yes no you know yeah okay anyway End of nagging so wow look at that still 165 kilowatt
Hour per hour Wait look at the time here Um we started at 11 we had four minutes Of deduction only a little bit of Bausch Telling stuff here So we're actually now at eight and a Half hour roughly not even there yet Eight And we have to drive 130 more kilometers Damn this is going to be faster than 10 Hours Poll stop for the win come on come on Charge like a boss now and then off we Go soon All right we should have enough now with The five six percent margin 13 minute Charting stock man look at these pit Stops okay off we go Okay let's do the countdown it's gonna Be freaking slow man all right 999 four 995 9996 9997 Animate 9999 Come on One thousand look at the time 8 46 we we Had four minute deduction which means Nine hours and 42 minutes we can run it Down to 9 40. Nine four is one hour faster than before Wow impressive what was the consumption By the way 250 okay that's before Corrections 250. wow
Damn I take my hat off for Pole star well done man pole star gets Tesla Bjorn's seal of approval If you look at the result now you see That this poster was a whooping one hour Faster than the the previously fastest Pole star 2 but that one was the poster To PP and it was also done in Winter it Was a lot colder so the consumption was Higher and that one was charging you Know about 150 155 kilowatts so but then Also previously I also tested the poster To a standard range single motor so this One is also a single motor but we Haven't tried the previous generation Long range single motor which is a front Flip drive so in a way yeah it's a bit Unfair to compare revl drive versus All-wheel drive but still you will see That the consumption on the single motor We tested Was higher and the temperature was lower But Um Um we we also have a slightly lighter Car on that one versus this one but we Have 20 inch wheels so you know all that Stuff combined means that it is Plausible that this new generation is More efficient but the efficiency gain Here might be only 5 10 my butt feeling Says that this car might be around 10 Watt hour per kilometer more efficient Than the previous generation but the
Reason why it went a lot faster now is Because it charges much faster plus that We have bigger battery I measured 4.7 Kilowatt hour more net capacity that is Roughly five percent more energy that Also helps What is that sound I think the car is cooling the battery Or the H1 let me see if I turn off HVAC HVAC is off Oh I didn't know that the a truck was so Noisy okay but yeah so Yeah but the reason why it went a lot Faster now is because battery is bigger And it charges a lot faster so there you Have it if you want to make the car a Lot faster that's the recipe and also The small bonus make it more efficient So those three things together pull it In the right direction to make the car Faster on the 1000 kilometer Challenge And then what cars are we then beating We are beating lots of cars now suddenly That couldn't even make it before the 10 Hour mark So 940 is a very respectable Time indeed man yeah so I don't know What else to say man I'm just blown away By how much faster this pole star is With these tiny little tweaks only and Big crude of the pole star for actually Developing the car to make it better After just a few years they already come With a new drivetrain right new upgraded
Stuff like there are other brands out There for example Mercedes like the eqc They almost didn't do any changes Um Jaguar i-pace same day they almost Didn't do any upgrade and just minor Things now on board Chargers slightly Faster but the car is still thirsty it Doesn't charge any faster than before You know but here big upgrade 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
About Electric City Vehicles Cars Power
EVs connect to the electric grid to safely deliver electricity to recharge their batteries. Most drivers plug into a standard 120 V outlet in their home (sometimes called Level 1 charging), or install a dedicated 240 V outlet or charging system that can deliver up to 30 kW of energy to their cars (Level 2 charging). Others find public charging stations at shopping centers, parking garages, and workplaces, or use the growing number of mobile charging options.
Most EVs have a range of about 100 miles on a full charge, and some can travel even farther. But the cost to operate a mile in an EV can vary depending on the type of power used, the car’s age, and other factors.
Tesla has a reputation for innovation, and its Model X and Model S are the most advanced electric vehicles on the market. But other companies, including GM and Ford, are working on new models that will compete with the Teslas for buyers’ attention.
As EVs become more popular, more people may be able to afford them. Having access to recharging is also crucial, especially for renters or those without garages. That’s why Earthjustice is leading a coalition to dramatically increase the number of public charging locations in shopping centers and parking garages, and to equip all municipal and private spaces with Level 2 chargers by 2025. This will help ensure that more New Yorkers can choose to drive and ride in an EV.
