New Tesla Model 3 RWD | The Anti-EV Range Test & Review!
What if I hated EVs? How would I go about making a video to make them look bad?
I set out to replicate some of the misleading information that I regularly see about EVS...range and charging in particular.
But is the Tesla Model 3 RWD up for the challenge...or will it fail miserably?! It has a 57.5kWh usable battery for a real world range of around 400-450kms. It will do the 0-100km/h sprint in 6.1 seconds. When you need to recharge...eventually...you will maintain an average of 108kW from 10-80%.
In normal circumstances this electric car is incredible...great range from an extremely efficient set-up, fast charging and hugely impressive tech.

    I remember in 2020, my girlfriend's uncle dying and having to drive her to hospital. And I had no charge so had to wait 40 mins to get enough juice in (it was a very cold winters evening in the Scottish Borders). I believe the newer batteries are much better now though

    Ive gotten 159kw as the max charging speed a few times. Even though the max is supposed to be 150kw, seems to have a bit of wiggle room on it. Also the software seems like the original one. The bings, bongs and warning sounds are so much quieter after a few updates, definitely not as annoying as when I first got in in April 24. Great and thorough review.

  • @TB-up4xi
    @TB-up4xi Місяць тому

    The RWD acceleration is software limited below 50km/h because of the discharge rate of the LFP battery - it's almost as quick from 50km/h to 120km/h as the RWD dual motor which is where you want the power for overtaking. The USA now only has the LR RWD (1 rear motor with the NMC battery pack from the AWD LR) and its 0-60mph time is 4.9sec (0-100km/h = 5.1sec)

    40:30 - You could also have set the navigation to a charger. It would spend a lot of energy heating up and maintaining battery preconditioning temperature. A campingtrailer also takes a far higher toll on consumption than ICE cars. Other than that you did great! Good idea with the video. Enjoyed watching 🙂

    It’s not what you drive it’s how you drive it. My Q4’s WLTP range is 329m. Over the 7 months and 7000m I’ve had it I’ve yet to see under 350m on a full charge….which is costing me less than £7.

    Literally just ordered one on lease through CARPARISON. 24 months 8000 miles £2689 first payment then £298 per month. Feel like it's good value for what you get, not paying too much less at the moment on a Kia eniro which has been a great car the last 3 years. Tried getting a lease direct from my local VW dealer but nobody was free and didn't even bother to call me after I left my number, no wonder they're going under

    Evening. Great video. Thank you. I've got one on order, hopefully here at the end of November. Slightly different spec (English variant), same motor and battery as your test vehicle, but with the larger wheels. Which.... although prettier, not as great with the efficiency. Question for you, when you carried out this trip, what setting did you have the re-gen in? Oh.....and I went with the matte grey 😎😎

    • @evplatform
      @evplatform Місяць тому

      I'm well jealous Lawrence...Great choice...although still dont get why Hyundai UK won't give out the aero wheels! I toggled the regen so many times. I like to keep it off when at high speeds, and then increase the regen in towns and sharp bends. Personal choice and I feel it gets me more efficiency.

    @richardhargrave6082 2 місяці тому

    That's one of the best reviews I've seen of this car, balanced and well made. I've saving for the deposit to buy next year. People say its not quick, but its 80's hot hatch quick enough and as a family car, its almost a no brainer if you're not bothered about an EV and is a no brainer when you are! Here's hoping the decent offers from Renault continue here in the UK

  • @iks8622

    I wonder, same trip with 5 people instead of just the driver, what the range would be?

    • @evplatform
      @evplatform 2 місяці тому

      It would certainly reduce the range like with any car...but the difference would be very small. Affects EVs much less than combustion thanks to regen especially in cities.
