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 sitting in the Volvo xc40 and in this video we're gonna Go up doing let me see me reset this one All right let's just get going So uh yeah you guys know the drill well Actually maybe you don't so this is what I consider the Steep Mountain climb yeah That's what I'm going to call it so People know what's going on yeah so we Are going to go up a quite steep Mountain As one of the steepest in Thailand Actually not the steepest one but that One is too far away from my location but This one is steep enough and we're going To put a lot of stress on the the Drivetrain to see how it can handle it Well actually I should go faster now Yeah so the video doesn't become too Long so um Yeah I also filmed the instrument Clusters we have some information about What's going on Oh what the heck is that smoke Okay And then okay so yeah this is better Volvo and it's the the dual motor with a Big battery so uh the the 78 kilowatt Battery yeah I don't remember the name Of it the X xc40 recharge a lot Something like that yeah because it's

It's kind of thirsty so let me see I can Try to bring up this one if I remember Well actually well you can see it on the Bottom there that the trip meter and Everything So we will see how much we consume also On the way up and down let me see what's Was it 76 when we started okay All right and now it starts the The ascending right descending is Downhill ascending is uphill So um yeah I will pay attention to uh There is a power meter here with some uh Eventually some power limit but Hopefully we won't see any power limits So we will just go up uh As fast as we dare to do it and again as Always we will not have any luggage here People but we just compensate by going Faster and that should be good enough I'm a little bit late today by the way It's uh already five minutes past seven Normally I'll be here about half an hour Early oh what the heck no yeah normally Normally I'll be stuck behind slow Drivers But today well that was close man those Dogs who let the dogs out but my ninja Reaction breaking time when I saw they Were running around there so I had to be Careful we don't want any injuries But the Volvo of course perfect safety Yeah no dogs were injured during this Video

So let's see uh I don't remember the Weight of this uh car I think it was Something like 2 300 kilograms so it's Kind of heavy and uh Yeah Let me see the spec on this uh car is uh Well like I mentioned 78 kilowatt hour Battery and um 200 no no I mean 408 horsepower But I don't remember how much torque it Has but it goes like a rocket so um I think it has quite a massive torque oh Yeah you say oh yeah this one oh This is exactly what I was trying to Avoid by Starting early Because we don't want to get stuck Behind these guys they drive dogs slow No pun intended yeah But uh we just overtake them they yeah Like this normally we just Hammer them Even though it's barely legal but what The heck is this there's some kind of Sign in Thai only she I can't read the Right time Uh but that looks like a warning sign Yeah okay there's some kind of bow still Okay Thinking something Okay well it's just a short one Hopefully oh they're putting on some Cable now actually it seems to be longer Hmm okay this is the first time I've Seen bow still over here

Let's see how how far is the digging Okay there they are putting some Concrete over there okay right okay it Wasn't too long right So um yeah we might also run into that Was a white one there's a there's also a Red one that went up here a while ago While I was setting up the camera so I Guess we'll see if we also run into that One eventually But I can see the display now so far There's no uh no power limit anything as Expected but the the there's a pickup Truck But the the big stress test hasn't begun Yet this is like just the warm-up So um And in case you guys don't know this car Is manufactured in China so Maybe the The car is designed in Sweden but at Least it's manufactured in China So will that have anything to do with The stress test will it affect the Stress test well I guess we'll find out About uh Yeah I don't expect anything crazy to Happen or any power limit or shut down I Think because I haven't heard of any Problems with the pole star or Volvo So uh I think they use the similar or The same drivetrain right well oh There's more here Interesting wait what are they making

There's a there's a concrete Edge they make okay well we can just Stay behind this one until it becomes Straight and then we can hammer it I can show you the brutal power of this Volvo The Volvo Terror no I'm just kidding There okay now it goes kind of fast I Already wanna you wanna you wanna hammer It okay I'll hammer I'll hammer don't Worry Wow the power is just brutal here Oh holy crap yeah So um Right no okay oh the sun is about to Come up now all right yeah we just uh we Had to put enough stress on this drive Trainer come on just go faster go fast You see Oh yeah it's such a pleasure to drive up These mountains with an all-wheel drive So uh so far actually yeah this this Time when I come to Thailand now I only Be driving a front-wheel drive and Rear-wheel drive cars up this hill so This is the first all-wheel drive So I expect it to be good Because the overdrives they just They just climb up the mountain like a Pussycat wait Um or maybe a mountain lion here that Sounds better Oh yeah I am oh the power the shame Power

Oh And then you know you know it's kind of Funny when people say well you know when I when I claim that um yeah electric Cars the key guys for the Lord uh Because they have in the torque and they Could just fly up the hill there's no Problem and they say yeah you know but You wait until you try a proper uh Gasoline car well I think last time I checked a gasoline Car does not have instant Torque from Zero RPM or whatever RPM we are at right Now So a gas a faucet car can't just do this And just floor it and go up fly up the Hills and wow I will show you what a Fossil car can't do okay we're gonna go Over here now you know this is even a Volvo like a like a crossover even Though it's not even a sports car but I Could just go here okay help in turn all Right what you're gonna do what you're Gonna do what you're gonna do when they Come for you and then go up here and Then Oh wait was that a slight power limit Due to traction or limited traction Could be Oh this is exactly what I'm talking About you know when I go you I don't Know if you felt that you heard that When I went around the hill and I went Around the curve uh there was a little

Bit of slip and then the car is like Yeah yeah oh yeah My oh my ears are getting What do you call it a Dottie Oda yeah The dot in my ear Oh that was the red one I was talking About earlier that one was a little bit Faster but oh man This car does not disappoint Because it just it has that instant Torque and also it has the possibility To adjust the torque Uh many many times per second and and Really no no delay no engine delay no Turbo lag or anything like that so you Can just instantly adjust the power According to what is optimal for Traction Uh and then just do crazy like this This is the steepest no this is the Steepest part by the way and the car Just flies up the hill and the reason Why I'm holding back a little bit now Because I don't want to ruin the tires On this press car it's from Volvo uh Thailand by the way Uh Yeah but it just flies up the hill do we Have any power limit nope do we hear any Fan noise nope The car is just resting now okay well It's not that hot that time but um I think it does if there would be a some Kind of throttling or something going on

Then we should have noticed it by now So wow Well actually it ain't over yet until we Are By the military checkpoint yeah there's Some kind of I think there's some kind Of boot camp at the top here we have to Oh oh is that a cherry blossom I just noticed maybe they just uh yeah Typically cherry blossom they only uh Uh Shine for a couple of weeks Every year okay up the hill oh yeah yeah We are actually almost done now that was Not even oh damn the consumption holy Macaroni Well it's a vulva after all I I forgot That this is the first time I fly up the Hill there on a brick Well the brick shouldn't matter too much Because we drive so slow anyway right so The the drug is not that uh significant What that does is a lot of yeah now you Guys might see the the whole magnitude Of the stress test because The consumption is quite High we we just Put lots of potential energy potential Energy into the car That then eventually will be turned into Kinetic energy when we release the Potential That we have Characters fly up the hill or No No Limit and no nothing uh Uh oh oh okay just oh man

Oh Wow yeah those are cherry blossoms oh Cool I haven't seen them before wait Maybe because it was too dark oh that is Beautiful wow Yeah whoa Whoa that is super beautiful holy Macaroni I'm just I'm supposed to focus On driving now and everything but I'm Just enjoying I mean yeah admiring the The nature around there whoa Wow wifey needs to see this well I guess You can look at the video and she gets Dizzy Yeah I think I think a very limited time When they bloom like this Okay well I've been almost done and he Powered him okay okay well I'm gonna see On the way back by the way that's also An interesting part come because then People uh we might see some region limit Or we will see it well we'll find out And what about turning around here Um Well this is this car is relatively Short and it should have uh it's not too Big a turning Circle So let me see if I can just do a little Flip mode here can I do a 180 degree flip mode let me see me just Do this and then Did this and then look Yeah almost almost okay Okay so at the top here 63 percent

And then we go downhill again and let me See The reset wow 856 or 859 watt hour per kilometer that Is quite massive Right so let me see always again not too Much stats here because this is 63 let's See how much we uh get once we are back Down there so that took um 13 okay yeah This is what I like about this Volvo the Region is really powerful and we have Truly one pedal driving because I Haven't touched the brake pedal yet I'm Just gonna letting it down here uh yeah On the region so This is a big difference between this Volvo versus the the rear wheel drive Model wire draw because that one I had To Stomp on the brakes all the time here Look at that okay now I feel like I need To break okay yeah But that was just a gentle break and Then for the most time I think we could just go one pedal Driving but okay I should Please be careful ABC okay Oh I'm sorry for that I'll be talking about that lately but Um yeah I should actually drive at the Same Pace as I do with the Tesla and I'll actually be there every car test Which is to put enough stress to the

System which I'm doing right now so I'm Actually regening quite heavily you see That the region is very close to the max And I need to actually blend it yeah Okay with blender breaking I Enable the last bit of region So um We will see if the battery then has some Kind of limitation I see that we have Some fogging going on here okay I need To uh not recirculate yeah in in Thailand you would normally always Recirculate Because you want to filter out that Sheet from my side but in this case Because we are driving in kind of cold Weather then I want to Pull in some fresh air oh there was a Lot of motorcycles coming up there yo What's up Okay using a little bit of brake pedal Now just to enable as much region as Possible and then also brake safely or Slow down say what is it is that the White car we hammered earlier Really I think so Okay yeah here okay uh region region Vision oh Yeah I can actually reach and yeah I Don't have to touch the brick wow Very impressive region No no yeah Okay You go again are using the bread but I

Think you can even hear the drivetrain The motors they have this low-ish Humming Like a tram In fact we just shut up for a minute now Let's do a little uh driving ASMR Right now you've got an impression of How it is to drive this ball okay here's This really steep part this one uh I Think is this this part was 17 degrees Steep Or uh almost 30 percent grade so it's Really steep I think in Norway they couldn't allow This to be that steep because it can be Slippery in Winter and then nobody is Going to get up but over here there's no Snow just rain Eventually But okay Um Let me see the consumption goes down Quite a lot now because we are Recuperating most of the massive Potential energy we are releasing So um I don't remember the numbers but I Guess we can't compare them directly but The model y I think had something like 200 and 130 watt hour per kilometer consumption Eventually it actually lost a lot of Energy because the model y Ray will Drive by the way yeah could not Recuperate everything on the way down

And I still wanted to kind of go faster I could Slowpoke yeah that's the thing I Could go slow and then maybe region all The way with the model y or any other Revital front wheel drive but uh And then the video will be too long And I the purpose of this test is not to Go on some kind of Eco run and like oh Yeah look at me I can save a lot no no The purpose of this test is like the Title says it's a stress test so we will Just rest the drivetrain as much as we Can Because it's equal run we could just do That Another Place Another Time Place Yeah time whatever but here it's all About the stress testing And and this kind of Road here I will not find it in Norway yeah like Even uh if you go from uh doll sniff bar Down to well actually not even get on it But even that one is not that Steep and There's not not that long continuous Slopes like Yeah Well actually is it tall snipper No it's not that steep yeah I remember It's not that steep it just kind of goes Up high but it's not that steep so uh Yeah So we should just try to enjoy it while We can and then I have to already plan My next plot which is to hammer that Pickup truck

You see now I'm going a little bit Faster trying to put more stress into The battery and drivetrain Motors See if we trigger anything at all Well yeah the pickup truck picks up some Speed now no pun intended Because I see that Thai people they tend To on the straight they go fast but then As soon as the road gets a little bit Twisty then they drive like like Toyota Drivers well actually by the way is this A Toyota I'm not sure I can't recognize the shape I'm not really not much into pickup Trucks Yeah but I have to say that suspension Feels a little bit bouncy because when I Google about this Um the Volvo has a roughly 2.7 meter Wheelbase Which is similar to uh byd Auto 3. And then yeah let's go Like why are you driving in the mid Yeah but uh model y has 2.9 well almost 2.9 meters of Real Um base so that 20 centimeter extra Actually gives it a lot of Comfort Even though the model y suspension is Harder than this one so yeah so of Course for dampening then oh yeah they Tend to uh foreign Yeah but okay so this one versus model y

Okay the latest and greatest model y has They have softened up the suspension a Bit so it yeah the first one why I Tested a couple of years ago it was too Bad man I mean it was it was too hard I Was complaining big time about it and Then they softened it up And it's better What are they doing It's better but still Not oh that's a lot of traffic holy Macaroni is that going to ruin my second Run when with a Thai version Yeah so so yeah but so even though the Model y suspension is harder it still Rides better in some other ways because Because of the longer wheelbase So um I'm not sure how to explain this The way the Volvo rides it's It feels quite Nimble and compact Even though it's kind of heavy for a Compact crossover I don't call this an SUV because it's not that big yeah as She said So um Yeah but what I can report now is that I Don't feel any limitation in whoa what The heck man Lots of traffic oh and I don't feel Any limitation at all In the motor or yeah we can see on the Display also there is no no oh There is no dotted line I think well Actually any any power limit will show

Up as well Lots of traffic today I think it's Weekend yeah I think it's Saturday today So It will show up as some some orange Arc A part of the Ark will be become orange If there was a power limit and this is Very impressive that we can actually Regen a lot without getting any region Limit So I remember Tesla managed to region Even though when I tried the model uh Three long range Eventually I felt like the region limit Was Getting Limited So we had a reduced region Down the steeper Parts where were the Dogs again earlier today I have to watch out maybe they are still There the freaking dog gang Be careful there Okay no they're gone now okay what were They here But yeah so um I guess this battery but this battery is Not lfp It's something with Cobalt Nmc or uh yeah I wonder if an nmc Nickel Cobalt Oh it was a nickel No way manganese nickel Cobalt is that The variant But it's not the one with the aluminum

It's not that I don't want to think it's Only Tesla that uses the the NCAA or Whatever it was So uh Yeah but I guess the Cobalt makes Wonders yeah Gives the battery a great properties so It doesn't have any limitations But at the cost of Congo yeah So uh well we are back here that was the Worst part the stress test is basically Over right now we might as well end the Video here but maybe I should start Maybe my starting position should be Further up like closer here but the Problem is that I haven't found any good Spots to pull over safely Well actually I couldn't do it over here And kind of off-road a little bit Um Yeah oh is that fox noise a dog okay Right so um yeah well maybe I should Just summarize and say that oh why do People eat the lane freaking Thai people Man Whoa dude look at that look at that 250 Watt hour per kilometer okay I don't Remember how it goes with the bottle why Would you say that now that in this this Test This Volvo uses about the same energy as The model Y and why is that Because this car managed to recuperate

More even though we tried to drive Equally fast and stress it so yeah The slow Club the slow clap for the Volvo 245 you see you see okay we should just Do a little oh now not that I don't Reconcirculate then I smell all the Fumes in here because they're burning okay wait is this a legal turn I Guess so I'm barely legal but that's my Middle name So there we go let me just end it here And then we look at the stats and we see That yeah there you go 58 kilometers per Hour I think that's decent 244 watt hour per kilometer wow All right 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

Limitations of Electric City Vehicles Cars Power

Electric city vehicles cars power are a major part of the effort to reduce carbon emissions. Electric cars are also convenient, save time, and are often cheaper than gas-powered cars. They can be recharged at home or while you’re out and about. But there are some limitations.

The first of these is range. An electric vehicle typically has a range of around 200 miles. This number varies from model to model, but the most advanced EVs can go more than 400 miles between charges.

Whether you’re commuting to work, heading to school, or cruising around town, you’ll want your EV to reach its maximum range. Fortunately, there are many public charging stations around the region. Some are available free or at a reduced price.

If you’re looking to purchase an EV, you can use PlugStar’s Shopping Assistant to narrow your search. It will help you determine which EV meets your driving needs and budget. Also, you can take advantage of one-time purchase incentives such as grants, tax credits, and exemptions from registration and road tolls.

You’ll also want to consider the speed at which you plan to travel. EVs aren’t equipped with multiple gears, which means that you’ll need to drive at a fast pace to achieve the longest possible range. Speed can also affect the amount of energy you need to charge your car.

Another factor to consider is how much you’ll spend on fuel. For example, an EV will need 30 kilowatt-hours to travel 100 miles. Compare this to the estimated cost of a gallon of gasoline.
