This video was brought to you by AED Ro Planner cow Marcus B stormberg and B Componente yo what's up we're now in Front of the V1 house at arabu and Finally has it has arrived the xank G9 I've been waiting for this one oh so um Yeah we're going to do a yellow test but It be a reference test it's to uh make The sun sad no but um okay the whole Deal is that we're going to drive from Uh yes him the new home over to uh Yow And we'll measure how long it takes and This G9 has 98 Kow battery it can go There in a single Char no problem uh It's looking a bit weird because we have Trailer but the trailer will be left at The the new house so okay I will tell The tell the plan as we go um but okay Let me just show you that uh since I'm Going to start from there since we Haven't moved yet we are in the moving Process then I'm going to bring some Stuff here we have some clothes in the Back There uh in the trunk we have filled it Up with banana boxes yeah banana boxes Are quite sturdy so yeah if and also More stuff in the back but okay so Anyway we are plugged in now just Topping up a little bit I'll show the Plan you see we have yeah um you know The G9 is supposed to show percentage on Display but uh then suddenly that Feature was gone but it's coming back

Again but at least um I was told that if You use the VP range here uh how is this Going you change it here with vtp or Dynamic as long as you use vtp then uh At 100% you get 520 km you can actually Calculate the the percent based on that Or another trick is that if you go to um How is this again uh charging limits Um no no no here charging limit yeah Here when you do this slideer you can Kind of guess how many percent it is Yeah at least down to 50% right so but It's um clumsy to do that way you can Just do I mean any Asian can figure out That we are now at 97% or something right well okay Actually 1 1% is roughly 5 km right it's Actually 5.2 km so yeah roughly 97% Right now so that's good uh and then Show that uh we need to top up a little Bit first over there at cleage because We will start from uh the new home here In yesim and then I have 11 Kow over There but I don't want to wait for over An hour we want to try to start with 100% battery so this car supposedly has Some preheating before fast charging so I navigated to recharge how can you see It here okay what the but the car Estimat we will ride with 484 km at uh Cleavage uh okay but okay anyway uh Let's unplug and then off we go and Remember that in xank sound effects are [Music]

Included ah freaking Chinese cars Man Uh when I Tred to use cruise Control then it doesn't work is it like Tiny letters but try you can try to read It so actually um yeah just like uh what Was there was some other Chinese car That didn't allow you to do this what Was it no it was Neo yeah it was Neo el7 Same there you're not allowed to use Cruise control not even cruise control When you're towing Uh but okay we're doing around 90 GPS Speedo speed I'm not sure what the GPS Speed is but man it is quiet in here Just like I remember from the test Drive Ron go home I need to test the Noise I need to test so much with this Car um we are on no and hakita um r five Tires though but they are not the EV Tires the EV tires they have the Acoustic foam in it this one doesn't Have it it so yeah but it uh sounds Pretty good so far all right we are now At cleavage with 461 km I think that's Around uh 88% okay let's plug in a nice feature if You look at the key up here you double Tap on this one open the charge For okay and this is 400 volt you can Actually see it let me see put the big Fat killer back there yeah you see 400 Volt so these C power charges there not

Upgraded for 8800 volt that means that This car needs to transform 400 volt to 800 volt uh so I heard that it takes Maximum 100 KW on 400 volt Chargers I Need to verify that of course plug it In heard a d dong and then we have to Tap this One you know there there okay it feels Like I mean I feel like the RFID reader On the camp power 88% like a ninja but It seems like the camp power RFID Readers they are less sensitive than Other uh Chargers okay let's see now what kind of Speed what wait wait okay we can Actually see it here okay we can see I Want to see some stuff here um if we Click on this one want to see voltage ah Okay okay so it seems like it ask for 460 volt but uh the pack voltage is high Than that we'll see at ionity eventually How high the voltage is but okay it's Ramping up A that ain't too Bad but I think it pre conditioned the Battery before we arrived here wow look At that look at that huh at 88% it's ramping up okay there there it Says yeah it's a Norwegian uh let me see Can I switch to English English wait they don't have Deuts what okay you see here it says Vehicle limits so that it it hits the LI 84 kilow oh

I can get used to that oh yeah um yeah Okay I need to figure out how long we Need to stay but let me check check what It looks like inside the car then so a Nice feature with the G9 and actually Most X as far as I know is that uh the Car is still on there is no power button This is the right way to design an EV see the heat everything is still on Running until you lock the car so um Okay um yeah um Chinese cars you see you Know you just have to do the math oh you Have to multiply volt by amp and you get The charging power no you can actually See it Here so there's plenty of screen space Here uh did they bother putting up the Kilowatt here no but you have it here 84 Kwatt hour per hour okay so we will just Stay here for a little bit uh not too Long and then um we will go to uh the New House welcome to my Manion I'm not Popping up getting 9.9 Kow huh wait that Must be after charging losses after HCK okay whatever it's just 46 minutes Okay um maybe not that long I'm not sure But we'll see so Yeah see here it's nice and cool at Night oh yeah I forgot to tell you if You don't want to disturb the neighbors This car Has soft Cloths and here you see I start filling

Up the garage Some stuff you know I realize this lead Bar is so freaking powerful that see This one is probably some Motion okay no yeah I mean at night the Lead bar is so powerful that it lights Up okay here then I can turn on this one Yeah then we get really nice light Inside and you can also uh change the The intensity and the um the color Temperature so yeah we have some stuff Here um I unloaded the car we need to Unload the trailer so let me show you Yeah this is like good old times with The fal no no Optimus Prime see I have Some uh hard GE M some Furnitures a Bicycle some baby stuff that they all Been secured properly so I just need to Unload here while we are Charging all right I unloaded all the Cargo I parked the trailer over there it Just stay there until uh well early this Morning when I'm back so yeah we're Almost good to go now let show Here we Have 56 km that should be around 99% so it will finish in 16 minutes We'll probably not wait for that uh it's Getting late so um I'm planning on Leaving at 23:15 in 2 2 minutes we will Just yeah I'm PL go so it's Okay see Here the car claims we will arrive with The 234 km no no no sorry sorry

325 really okay let's unplug and go then Well we're on the move and we have to Cruise at 92 km/ hour on the speed to go 88 on GPS so uh yeah you see normally I Would start from arabu Oslo and I would Drive via Sun Von then over here right But now we start from here so there Different route I see the distance Difference but also time difference so Yeah but um you know this car is so nice And quiet and also we sit fairly tall up So I don't feel like we're driving that Fast so it feels like we are Hypermiling so yeah oh the headlights Also seems pretty good I need to test That on my regular test Stretch and of course we have massage Seat and seat ventilation which I Probably don't need right now and nice Interior lights [Music] [Music] Ooh [Music] We are getting close to broa and holy software is super annoying okay you See the GPS speed here we're just Cruising now uh with X pilot On uh well okay and also let me just Uh yeah you know Yeah About don't slow down the car slows Down like a Toyota driver this is the G9 Performance even and it drives so slow

When the curves holy wait wait is This how Chinese people drive really What whoa whoa whoa whoa what the heck Man can we turn off all granny mode here You know just drive more Normal oh yeah Every time you use xpilot it slows down A lot in the Curves uh there's one solution okay There's one solution which is to uh Disable xpilot like this what if you Just turn the wheel but then it Re-engages you know it disengages and Re-engages okay it's similar to Tesla That the car is in control and then when You turn the wheel then you are in Control temporarily until the car is in Control again but Tesla is like you Disengage and then you have only Electric cruise control and uh Auto pet Is disengage not this one so uh what you Need to do is then pull the stock up and Then wait for it wait a couple if you if You try too fast if you do this and then Try too fast Then it's not ready yeah okay but okay If I dis disable uh Xpilot and then use cruise control Instead then it doesn't slow down that Much in the curve so you can actually go A lot faster in the curve more more Normal speed like for example this one Okay see the upcoming curve coming here Um xpilot or Auto steer would slow down

Here like a to AO driver now we can Actually go faster or I wouldn't call This fast you know any Germans here so So finally I can drive at normal speed In the curves right like truckers even Big ass truckers they would drive this This kind of speed in the curve it may Be one or 2 km per hour slower than me But you know you get the idea they don't Slow down that much in the curves Um but however if you approach a curve That is a little bit too sharp then let Me see if I can yeah I think there's More coming up soon then something else Really annoying happens let me see I Wonder if this one is sharp enough I Also have to disable all the lane War uh Emergency Lane what there it was too Annoying but let me see okay here here Is this one sharp Enough nope that one fire you see that One fine I hope wish that the auto State Could work like this let me see is this One sharp enough um no this one is fine You see oh man when I use Auto stair on Other cars you can usually just Cruise Like this around the curves I have taken This route a lot like a lot okay now the The the road is not sharp Enough but what I can tell you is that If the road is too sharp and Also um well I mean doesn't have to be Super sharp it's not like a hair pin Turn but if it's a little bit too sharp

For this system then oh Then cruise control disengages you get All kind of warning and so okay Maybe we come to one here yeah and there Also another thing is that um when I'm Just driving um suddenly uh the the seat Belt tensioner will just pull and there Will be some some sounds and then they You know like huh what it happened Several times and I was not uh I mean I Was paying attention I was not uh Falling asleep I didn't touch the camera Or like that so that happened many Times very annoying and I also had to Disable the face detection or face Camera because it was bugging me when I Didn't want me to be bugged uh um and Also the car Phantom brakes and okay let Me see uh slow down Here yeah the car also Phantom brakes Way too Often And what else is it yeah pretty much Like that uh just I feel like yeah there Are some safy feat Yeah and then it slows who you don't Have to slow down that much man what the Heck huh wa come on come on go faster Schnell Schell chop chop chop what what Maybe this is considered safe in China oh maybe they don't have sharp Curves in China yeah the X system X Pilot I've never seen such a sharp curve Before holy

Macaroni um what was going to say again Oh yeah but fortunately this time it did Not disengage but I can try to provoke It when it disengages you see what Happens but Um uh yeah super annoying is that um uh I cannot adjust steering wheel or Mirrors uh what else was it again oh Yeah but I cannot adjust steering wheel And and side mirrors while we are Driving I have to be in park what the Heck man uh yeah it's because sometimes I feel like hey I'm not in the perfect Position but then I have to go into the Park I feel like the okay they tried to Make the car safe but uh instead of Being safe it just uh becomes annoying Annoyance okay I'm going to Pro it okay Go too toell here take over now pilot is Deactivated yeah suddenly the cruise Control just deactivated and now it Slows down who That curve wasn't wasn't even that sharp Okay let's try to provoke it again okay Go a little bit faster all Right you see here I would just go here Sell no problem the car is fine you know We we have electric car you know low Cental Gravity uh we have good friction here Dry roads yeah so okay anyway uh end the Rent for Now oh yeah another thing I think is Annoying is that you see I

Can okay okay let me show you Um push the stock down once no no no no No what the Heck what push a stock once you get into Auto steer no you get to uh to um adap Cruise control pull the stock twice just Like This then you enter Auto stair but then Uh if you pull it what you you can't go Go out of Auto stair Um and go back to only the adaptive Cruise control you have to totally Disengage everything first oh sorry my Bad you have to disengage everything and Then go back to the whole thing here so That's um that's a little bit annoying Um because the way Tesla works is Actually pretty good once you get used To it once you understand how you can go Back and forth between the different Modes without having to reset everything You know so it seems like they just Didn't copy uh test uh test line enough Yeah we are now at go and we have 316 km Of range left which is 60% wow uh when It comes to consumption okay you know This one is quite misleading just like Um uh which Chinese car oh it's mxus Yeah you see it looks like we consume uh 236 wat hour per kilm for the past P 185 Km nope this one is a rolling average For the past 100 km well actually is it 50 or 100 I think it's 100 km so yeah um It's going to be a little bit

Challenging once I do the range test and Also 1,000 km challenge to figure out How much we spend but okay at least Looking pretty good now and it looks Pretty slim for um the sun because we Made it here we draw what let me see Uh uh drw over 130 how when do we start Again wa we drw over 2 hours to get There wasn't it um yeah 2 hours and 15 Minutes so far and we still have 60% Battery left oh I haven't peed Yet uh I wonder if we can make it all The way to uh uh Y and Back Again H that Would be interesting yeah okay all right So now we have another 51 km before we Are there at the Final Destination and It's nice and calm outside [Music] [Music] Now [Music] We're here s k Yello o lots of chargers Available and time 210 that means we Spend uh 2 hours and 55 minutes o seems Like this route might be 5 minutes Faster than from uh Aru okay it's – 3° B outside um yeah we Have 237 km of range left that's roughly Um 45% left wait yeah I think that was It and then consumption is also just the Rolling average so yeah it's uh cold Outside and wind this so I can't be Bothered to go outside it's snow and and I'm nice and comfy inside the

Car so um since everything is closed Here then I don't have any business here We have been driving for yeah almost 3 Hours but uh uh the car is still not out Of juice so let's uh turn turn around And then drive back I can't wait to see The charging speed on this Beast

Electric City Vehicles – Which Brands Are Making a Splash?

EVs are here to stay, but they can still be confusing. With new questions about where to charge, whether you’ll get a tax break and which models offer the best value, it’s important to be informed as you shop. Thankfully, we’re here to help.

Ford GM Power Manufacturing

Almost all carmakers now have at least one electric vehicle on sale, and the lineups are expanding rapidly. Here’s a look at the brands making a splash, with special attention to models with strong resale values and a broad range of features and capabilities.

The Porsche Taycan is a sleek sedan that delivers on the promise of electrification, with both base and GTS variants capable of delivering EPA-rated ranges of up to 246 miles. The electric drivetrain also makes it possible for designers to add more passenger and cargo volume than a comparable ICE model, which is especially valuable in this class of vehicles.

A battery-powered electric vehicle can be a great option for city drivers who want to cut through traffic and reduce their environmental impact, but it’s equally suited for longer trips that require a more relaxed driving experience. The Renault ZOE is a fun, easy-to-drive model that’s small enough to maneuver in tight parking lots but still spacious and well-equipped. Its instant, punchy acceleration and the ability to switch into B mode, which maximizes energy regeneration when easing off the accelerator, make it a joy to use in town.
