This video was brought to you by Steinberg a better world planner Mr Green Camp power and Marcus Beale Yo what's up we're not in front of the House and behind me here you see the Toyota be set for X this is the All-wheel drive and in this video we Will finally test how thirsty is this Car Is it Thursday than the Tesla absolutely So yes I charge the car to 100 now uh uh We are going to yeah okay I will explain Now the the range test now it's slightly Different we've I found a method to Measure the range quite accurately Anyway without having to waste all day We're not going to waste all day anyway Because this one has high consumption And poor range but okay let me get Inside and I'll show you the stats I present to you Round steering wheel oh wait wait is it Supposed to come with joke okay whatever No what I actually prefer round steering Wheel and stocks right now oh this is Priceless so let me show So here actually this is I guess this is True Stellar charge so we charge the car To 100 until they stopped and it says 95 So uh yeah all this other stuff here Okay let's uh start driving Because the first we have to drive over To uh doll and then we will do the Consumption test over there but I have
To also count this section that this car Is so weird we have a trip meet the hair Trip a trip B uh and then we have some Consumption number here uh it says trip Average and then we also have some Consumption number here they don't Always correspond actually they start to Correspond now that's good Uh but they they are not on the trip are Not connected together like you know in A regular car I mean most other cars Except for the Chinese cars of course Yeah so I have to then look at the Distance here and look at the Consumption and then how to reset and do Several segments to figure out the Battery capacity so yeah now we just Have to get over to uh I only I guess Yeah we have some traffic now midday Yeah and then here the temperature on The battery is slowly Rising the 19 to 13. yeah we will also do a charting test Afterwards so we better try to heat up The battery for normal driving at least Maybe not the yoyo Wing oh it has JBL Speakers okay but Yeah I have to say Um the car feels a little bit cramped For a crossover SUV and also the Soundproofing is not the best you see We're only doing 100 kilometers per hour Yeah this car is also speedometer is Kind of way off so um I will do the next Exact measurement once we start the
Exact test but over here it's always Busy but yeah see we have some rough Norwegian asphalt then A somewhat High noise level even despite Having 60 profile tires and new can hook Up later R5 you know with a acoustic Foam then Still kind of loud in here So now we will start from here drive the 120 test and then come back again so Nice weather today not too cold and then I'm just parking the sun right now see How smooth it is so um yeah you know When I stopped the car there's actually Like a summary of the trip but then Every time we start now there will be a New trip something like that the whole Trip mystery okay let's just start the Test now before the traffic becomes too Bad it's one in the afternoon roughly Now so not too bad for now All right uh we have to cruise at 125 Kilometers per hour in the speedo to Much 120 GPS speed no wonder why the True Auto drivers are driving so slow Okay and the consumption right now is 316 watt hour per kilometer holy Macaroni this car is Thursday I mean it's even well it's four degrees Celsius over here it was it was eight Degrees over at the nippiness and Dolls Okay so it's nice and warm for a March Yeah so and also partly wet partly dry Uh yeah I'll see how I count this I
Think I'll count as a dry run because Most of the time it is actually dry Probably another shot well look at music Today Nice and calm okay so that's actually Very good driving condition for this Toyota yeah I will turn around over here And then head back to darl We are back at Hyundai so oh man okay uh Heaven Is Here Yeah so consumption was 293 kilometers what hour per kilometer So write that down and I guess I'll go To the restroom before we do the long Test well actually we have only 50 Battery left but then the car estimates 178 kilometers okay okay all right let's Do the line test then All right so um this time we have to Cruise at 90s why I said to 95 but it Tends to go a little bit over but this Is 90 GPS speed so consumption is kind Of high 260. I guess it will stabilize Uh uh right right right Yeah there's also a map here by the way Wait see here yeah oh look at that so What huh wait maybe I said to a night Night mode not sure But okay so you know normally with most Modern EVS nowadays I will do this test Cycle where I take a 66 kilometer Loop You know and then I take the full cycle To uh back again that's 180 km 182 Kilometer Loop Uh this time we cannot go all the way to
YouTube because the car estimates we Have 130 kilometers range left but this Is you know it's kind of weird if you Turn off HVAC you will see that suddenly It instantly updates 166 and they might Turn on HVAC again Then the range drops instantly so uh Okay I guess this is a way for the car To estimate the range So I'd also heard that this car has a Quite massive buffer below zero so I'm Not sure if this thing here corresponds With the state of charge here we'll find Out eventually So all right I guess now we just enjoy The ride and then yeah I have to figure Out where I turn around then but not at The regular turnaround point Okay let's check the weight there's 100 Kilo offset now okay whatever Front axle Okay 1160. The whole car Whoa okay well I guess that's uh not too Heavy All right let's test a sound system Foreign [Music] Okay Sounds good very good impression His bright voice is not unnaturally Bright A lesson to listen to Basils are nice
And deep Okay next song okay and this one okay This one is usually the first song in Other cars The way it has been sorted [Music] Wow [Music] Nice and deep and Punchy base I like it [Music] Yeah Definitely good Okay So as usual I use uncompressed WAV file On the USB stick to get the best quality Without any compression artifacts wow What this JBL system is uh it's pretty Good I'm impressed Yeah nice and clear good detail [Music] The car is a bit noisy though so I think That the sound needs to overwhelm some Of the noise also I know [Music] Oh wait wait I hear something here Base is not linear Yeah the high tones are not as loud as The lower tone so there seems to be a Peak at I don't know wild guess maybe 60 Or 80 Hertz We have to pay attention and turn around In time here so I have grown out the Juice but I have to bail out before dark Oh wait wait there's some rattling yeah
Okay so that was enough Um what the heck this car is so thirsty I have 207 watt hour per kilometer what The heck man Okay one thing I say about this sound System nice and Punchy base not linear We have a rattling in the doors but also Fairly clear and natural sound good Details so if I would give it points I'd say a seven yeah good Look here there's this Um it's one of the info about which Motors are used if I sell a little bit Okay no in the region yeah and then you See the front goes and then both of them But I see that most of the time both Motors work together And then also there's eco mode I turn on So you see here we have eco mode here And we can it's just a toggle Eco on off But they're also eco mode here this one Is not the same this one is eco mode for Uh for HVAC Yeah so just to know the difference with The Eco Mode then it's more yeah and Then also we have one pedal drive here But one pedal ish drive it just enables Stronger region so of course gonna have This one on during this test yeah so People can comment about this Is 206 watts of a kilometer 207. what the Heck man yeah by the way we are heading Back now so uh um I'm just afraid that I
Don't have enough juice so yeah we have A little bit of margin so we might have To drive a little bit back and forth Basically how how are the wipers working Can they can they at least squirt and Clean yeah yeah kind of ish okay uh it's Like Tesla style you see Tesla also has A section over there that is smooth dish Always Oh we got the low battery warning now Yeah uh traction battery level low Charging soon and here by the way you Also see power limit so there's uh the The Arc there kind of moves further and Further down So that's kind of early because you see Here we have um 18 it seems like it it May be the warning came below 20 to 19 Something like that and Battery Temperatures 11 to 17 degrees so it's Not too hot uh wonder how slow joining Speed we get but yeah I'll probably have To figure out something about the whole Charging test also So um but also we will check distance Error I figure out that the loop we are Driving now is 117 kilometers so let's See what the trip meter says Right distance check A little bit past this roundabout here At all we should have 117 kilometers Uh rally around here ish and we have 116.3 so that is very spot-on I don't Think we need to correct funny distance
Error We're finally here at ionite oh yeah Look at this Dolls now Look at that do that I see more and more ID bus nowadays but okay anyway look Here so the consumption was 2051 longer We have two kilometers of range left but I don't know how to interrupt this Because you see we have massive buffer This is like the the leaf you know the Rapid getting leave we have 10 While the car claims two kilometers left So I think what we're gonna do is that Around two kilometer as you know 20 or 205 so we have uh Roughly 400 uh what our leftover yeah I Think that's the closest uh thing we Cannot count whatever is below zero Because we we can't expect people to be Expert and use some kind of OBD to you Know like this one or yeah so uh let's Plug in and wait is it does it make any Sense Uh yeah I think that's it I will just Plug in and try to charge Wow well that was the longest handshake Ever and then when I plugged in now and We started charging it displayed at us Three percent so 10 on the car I mean on On on the in the BMS in car scanner is Three percent And yes we are colgating we're getting Only 70 kilowatts so I think I just have
To charge a little bit and then try to Yo-yo because actually that's kind of Funny I tried to yo-yo uh just before we Started charging took a little Loop the Only problem is that I have so much Power limit that I have like 40 kilowatt On this I couldn't really yo-yo either So yeah let's charge a little bit and Then hopefully we get warmer battery Than this so I can do my propaganda test Because this one is going to be big face Palm Um the only problem by the way is that Toyota has program in so that you get Two DC fast charging per 24 hour where You get the fast speed after two Sessions I'm not sure how they count it Then you get shitty speed we're talking About 40 kilowatt and 20 kilowatts so This is my only chance now uh I just do It like this and then Man it's not supposed to be easy all Right with Toyota All right let's see how much power do You have here Ah 116 kilowatt oh yeah So um yeah but I maybe I shouldn't yo-yo Too hard But then I might not have enough juice We'll see but whatever you know I don't Have to strictly start at 10 here Because the whole scale is kind of Messed up anyway but yeah we're gonna Take a little Loop now
Uh Just trying to yoyo a little bit you Know I should yo-yo now when I can So we're gonna try to heat up these two Here the Min and Max temperature I'm not Sure how much we need but based on other Cars I tried I think many cars they prefer roughly 25 Degrees Celsius to get optimal speed So I guess we'll see yeah Oh man So we heated the battery a little bit I Made a mistake by not charging enough Second yo-yo more And now we're getting 100 kilowatts Okay Battery heated huh wait the battery Heater is not active why not Uh so we are kind of okay we're getting 100 kilowatt at least well it has a slow Ramp up can we see 150 oh I'm not sure Okay battery heater is not active it Should at least activate battery heater So we can get to get up to 25 degrees or Whatever this battery needs to hit 150 Kilowatts so this might actually be the Charting session I record because I Don't think many people will hit 150 Kilowatt especially not in winter Wait a minute wait a minute oh we almost Hit 250 kilowatts here it has e-tron Like uh flat Edge charging curve well I Mean it stores like neutrons well okay
But you can only enjoy this twice per Day before it throttles Okay and just like the other reviewers Also found I also found that this car is Really thirsty and it has short range so What this is to say yeah and also when It comes to uh net capacity at least When we count until there is no Indicated range on display then I Measured 60.8 kilowatt hour so of course If you use the buffer below Siri you get More just like the leaf but I don't Count that one so yeah what else is to Say about this car Um okay not so good range and why are You so obsessed about range Well Normally if you have 500 or even 400 Kilometers of range then no big deal but Here since it's so so low range here Yeah whoa yeah then it actually becomes A problem you know if you want to hammer On the motorway in Winter and if you Have roof rack or stuff like that then The Rings is kind of shitty and that's Why Norwegians are not too happy with This so um Yeah I I don't know what else to say it Seems like Toyota they they can make Okay cars I wouldn't say this is Top Notch I mean it's comfortable ish yeah But I guess for the price well actually What is the price for this car uh maybe It's not that cheap either but it seems Like Toyota just needs to have a little
Bit more experience with making EVS they Have been kind of behind the game Compared to the Koreans compared to Tesla compared to even Mercedes you know Nowadays they're getting better and Better and Toyota They are a little bit far behind so if You say that Tesla is 10 Tesla is five Years ahead of the competitors then uh Toyota might be 10 years behind Tesla Maybe Tesla should start selling a Drivetrain Tech to other companies Yeah but then okay I need to test it Guys we're going to do 1 000 kilometer Challenge with the throat to be set oh I Can't wait to try but the only problem Is that I have now used my second fast Starting session I actually wait 24 Hours before I try the 1000 kilometer Challenge and also normally when they do 1 000 kilometer challenge I would charge 200 almost 100 or 100 at home and then The drive short distance to the gas Station then I top up on DC before I Start with 100 from the gas station I Cannot do that because then I use up one DC session and also that location does Not have AC so I guess I'll just drive slowly like a Toyota driver over to the gas station And then we start the challenge there And then I have to figure out what the Heck do I do because if I hammer it uh Then I need more juice and then when
Once I use up the two DC faster Organizations then the other the left Ones are going to be so I might Have to drive like a Toyota driver and Not drive as fast as I can or I'll Figure out something but I think you Guys need to get over to the grocery Store and get some popcorn because There's gonna be some big face palm Video with this car 1000 kilometer Challenge coming soon I think 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 rapid shift to electric vehicles is transforming the automotive industry, allowing manufacturers to compete with each other on price, range and functionality. While this is good news for customers and consumers, it can also make things complicated for the manufacturers themselves.
Tesla and Ford are leading the charge with their high-volume, high-performance EVs, but GM has big plans as well. It is building a factory to build the Lightning electric SUV, and two battery plants, in Stanton, Tennessee, and Glendale, Kentucky, that will annually produce enough cells for about 1.3 million EVs with 100-kilowatt-hour packs.
GM has also launched a series of initiatives in New York City to expand its public charging network. It has plans to equip 20 percent of all spaces in municipal public parking lots and garages with Level 2 chargers by 2025, increasing to 40 percent by 2030.
As electric cars become more popular, many states are worried about their impact on the nation’s grid. If the demand for electricity spikes during peak times, utilities could be forced to pump out more coal, natural gas or nuclear energy than they have available.
To ease the burden, state governments are working to create incentives for electric vehicle drivers. Some are using rebates, while others are building public charging infrastructure. Earthjustice is fighting for these policies in several states, including California.
