This video was brought to you by a Battery planner cam power Marcus Beale Steinberg and Bill componente Yo what's up in this video I'm going to Show you guys the charting session of The Tesla Model y Railway drive has it Been improved is it charging faster than The model 3 with the same battery well Let's find out so here you see I include That one the Two River Drive batteries And then also long range so you can Compare you see that long range of Peak At 250 kilowatt initially and then it Start dropping a little bit but that is Still very nice so include this one so You can consider okay do you want to go Long range or you want to go a River Drive a regular is cheaper but with long Range you get bigger battery and you get Faster charging and you also have All-wheel drive for better traction or More power or and if you if you get long Range you can also upgrade to with Acceleration boost to get even more Power yes power overwhelming or okay but Um eventually it starts dropping also in The long range but still it charges a Lot faster you can also see on the on The green box there that we have a lot More kilowatt hour usable Now versus the The other ones to the middle and the Left and then this time I also include The cell temp mid and Max in previously I just do the mid which is not really an

Average but it's like okay whatever Roughly average ish and you can see the Delta is quite low here we have three Degrees Celsius Delta even at high Temperature and this is also good Because you don't want to get too much Colgate or replicate some of the other Cars like the the Korean cars like key On those cars you know even the 800 volt Architecture they have as much as 13 14 Degrees Celsius Delta which is not uh Niche good okay okay anyway um they will See now that the two River Drive Batteries they are actually charging More or less the same uh the the each Starting session is not exactly the same There's there are always a little bit of Variation but based on this test you can See that they are charging roughly the Same I'm going to show the charging Curves eventually but look here you see That this the state of charge percentage Is actually similar on the rear wheel Drive batteries versus the long range Battery but the power is actually very Impressive think about this we have Smaller battery but still this is Because the left and the middle one Their lfp batteries whereas the right One is the Cobalt base I don't remember Which one this is if it's LG or Panasonic but it's nmc or n CM oh okay But whatever is the Cobalt based battery At least the one to the right but lfv

Batteries they have some nice properties For example Um they they have really good cycle or Really good degradation and they can Also take some beating and they can also Withstand a lot of heat without Degrading too much uh and they're also Very safe and they are Cobalt free which Is politically correct all right so Nobody can arrest that nobody can talk about the talk smack about electric Cars when you have lfp battery at least Because no slaves were harmed during Production of the battery yeah okay Anyway Not much going on here Um yeah we will see that very similar Again battery temperature this is going To be a little bit boring video but I Will try to comment as much as possible That the state of charge scale uh Not much going on here I also consider Which car I should include in this Comparison but I could include other Brands but I figured that okay maybe Best to just include these cars because Then if you consider these cars you can See if there's been an improvement and They'll consider long range versus rear Wheel drive uh okay towards the end it Goes kind of slow this is usually what Happens with Tesla but Tesla at least it Seems to have a curve that like the Typical I don't know what you should

Call this but the typical curve not too Flat curve but more like or maybe how You should charge a battery to not Degrade it too much So um uh yeah and then also one Interesting observation is that despite That the lfp battery can withstand more Heat the the long range battery is Actually staying at higher temperatures 53 degrees versus around 44 43 degrees Only on the lfp battery so yeah I'm not Sure how healthy it is in the long runs To to run the battery at over 50 degrees Celsius in the uh in the non-theft Battery so um that would be interesting Okay I think the river the one in the Middle I stopped it uh right around 90 From what I remember actually did I keep Going yeah I actually kept going okay Okay Um I don't remember how it was yeah um So they actually now we actually see What happens when we charge past 90 and This is actually very impressive because You can see that the rear wheel drive The one to the left or the model y Charges at better speed past 90 look at That versus long range long range starts Going kind of slow so in yeah if you Actually look at the the green at the Bottom again you will see that okay the The if you want to charge quite far up There then use the remaining okay we are Talking about around 10 not 13 14

Kilowatt hour less now but okay yeah Right now with long range I stopped at 90 so we can't see too much there but Okay I mean it's still slower yeah but Um but given the price on the rear wheel Drive I'd say that it's still a very Good deal for the money right you you Get the good stuff this is for some Reason I don't know why but um uh the Model y this time seems to charge Slightly faster than the one in the Middle I'm not sure why but you can see Here that um We will finish 200 percent And then the other one is still not done Yet Um for some reason and then 57 yeah we Can also see the usable remaining has Not caught up yet so they haven't Shifted anything there or increase or Decrease the buffer seems like the Buffer and everything seems to be the Same so yeah yeah it should be right Once we hit 100 I don't know it goes 100 Okay that's cheating yeah so now I just Document everything you can watch this This is in a 10x playback speed by the Way so I just include all of this so you Can actually see what happens uh with The battery and all the parameters okay Some people might consider this a little Bit unnecessary video yeah but for People who are interested in this they Probably want to watch this the people

Who want to spend a lot of money on on a Car they want to suck in as much Information as possible and here we see The difference in the Turning curve so You see that yeah we chart a 250 Kilowatt on the long range very Impressive this one seems to be a Thermal throttling because it's supposed To be like this right so I'm not sure Maybe I heated up the battery too much Yeah Teslas will sometimes also Replicate and this could be what you're Seeing there Um but okay this is I was talking about This typical curve maybe how you should Charge the battery like a lithium Battery it should be something like this But then some German cars they go more Flat and then yeah Um but uh look here look here so yeah For long range you get actually uh Faster joining that this area here above The other one here is what the the Benefit right by going for long range But however at around 50 percent then It's actually neck on neck this is Exactly what we've been talking about That the lfp think about this we have Smaller battery the okay the long range Is roughly 80. the long range is 82 Kilowatt hour and then the small battery Here is only around 60 kilowatt hour Right so in percentage that's quite a Big difference but somehow the lfp

Battery is able to keep up with this Bigger battery so yeah ideally the long Range battery should be above that one All the way but I guess it just simply Count or maybe it's not healthy to do it So uh based on this graph here I would Say that the LFE battery is a bargain For the price but also here you will see That you yeah this is the May well Actually just happened to me it just Happened to be one year apart and then Yeah they are more or less the same Slight variation here I'm not sure why But uh it seems like Tesla has not Improved anything uh yeah but some People might say oh but beyond I managed To get the high speed at uh 90 yeah I Also seen that before when I did the Acceleration test with the with the Model y River Drive I drove from home in 100 and then I topped up at around 90 I Think and I was getting over 100 Kilowatts at 90 because once you start If you start further out you will have This nice jolt until it drops and then Actually it wasn't like this 200 it was Like way up here somewhere like I Started with 100 and even at almost 100 Yeah no sorry I started there around 90 When I started charging right before the Before the acceleration test and I think When it ended it was way over 50 Kilowatts it was crazy fast yeah because They just because we start further out

So yeah Um all right so now you guys have seen It so which one would you go for long Range rear wheel drive the poor man's Tesla or the rich man's Tesla okay Anyway I think that's gonna 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 and the Power Grid

Electric City Vehicles

EVs are more efficient than traditional vehicles, with lower energy consumption and maintenance costs. Compared to gasoline-powered vehicles, the average electric car can travel up to 20 miles on one charge (as opposed to 37 miles for the average gas-powered vehicle in the United States). Additionally, EVs have fewer moving parts, which reduces wear and tear.

As the electric vehicle market grows, it is important to ensure that our power grid can support this new demand. This can be accomplished by incentivizing charging at night and making peak charging more expensive, or by expanding or improving transmission lines to carry renewable energy from western New York down to the city.

Ford

In 2023, Ford is accelerating production of its new electric F-150 pickup truck, and plans to offer electric versions of the Mustang, Silverado, and Equinox sports utility vehicles. It is also introducing new regenerative braking technology that will allow drivers to recoup energy while slowing down and bringing their cars to a stop. Additionally, it will partner with Zipcar to bring the all-electric Jaguar I-PACE to its ride-hailing services. Lastly, it will work with Cirba Solutions to process end-of-life EV batteries and Gigafactory manufacturing scrap to create the materials needed for the company’s global battery production capacity in 2028.
