    Good video... I bumped into a couple at a charging station at Ardmore Oklahoma. They were given one of these at an Avis in Dallas They had no idea they were going to get an electric car, and have no idea how to charge it. Plus they were headed to the Wichita mountains north of Lawton Oklahoma and that's trashy BTC hardware Francis land. I did everything I could do to help them I got them charging at the EA in Ardmore with my account because the credit card reader wasn't working. I told them the credit card readers on the Francis stations didn't work at Lawton that they would need the app. I'm sure they're a trip wasn't pleasant.

    Brandon your correct. I have one. The max I’ve ever managed to get out of EA is 187kw and I was there 22 minutes with a warm pack. Worst/ longest charge time was 48 minutes but it was all my fault, ice cold pack below freezing and I didn’t use the cars navigation so the car didn’t precondition and I drove it down to 8%.

    Hey Branden I just Videoed 179kW ona ID 4 at a Magic Dock in Minnesota (I uploaded youtube earlier today) Looks Tesla just updated the software for non Teslas. Your reaction was funny wait what 122k kW because i reacted the same .. I was like woah 172 , 173 179kW lol . btw.. my battery was like 57F , it was 35F outside and I started right off at around 140kW (%10 SOC). and that was without battery preconditioning as you know the ID 4 does not have it. I am going to run a full %10-80% on the MagicDock ina few days

      Genesis ..just watched your latest vid as well, yeah it has some nice features like the rear and side sshades and rear passengers able to set heat/ac to their preference (thinking froma Uber driver perspective) thins the ID 4 does not have BUT the vehicle it self ...yeah just does nothing for me..reminds me of Kyles Coda lol . For Uber I really think the ID Buzz would be great , I have 3 locla Colleges/University and students would love it. Hate the idea of going backwards owith range though..

    Great video, Branden. I've never seen a Kia/Hyundai go any higher than 97kw on a Magic Dock due to that rear motor inverter limit. Could it be because it's not a true E-GMP platform? Otherwise, why would the higher amp make a difference?

    I do think Tesla should make the end stalls for non Tesla vehicles and this would allow more wiggle room for the old CCS1 vehicles to get in a better position to plug in with those short cables. Also new brands should position the charge post to the left rear and or right front. 2024 should be a very big improvement of DC fast chargers in North America. I think DC fast charging will only get better this year forward.

  • @ArtiePenguin1
    @ArtiePenguin1 3 місяці тому

    Thank you for this in-depth video Branden! It's interesting to hear that the G80's voltage is only around 600 volts. That is especially surprising coming from an EV6, which is also part of the E-GMP family. My car's voltage is firmly in the 700 volt range. So I guess the G80's voltage is closer to the EV9, since the EV9 is also a low 800 volt vehicle.
    Don't you think that the long wait for Hyundai Kia Genesis vehicles gaining Supercharger access is because Tesla needs to reconfigure the Superchargers to output up to 1000 volts? I highly doubt Tesla will open up the Superchargers to E-GMP vehicles without reconfiguring them, because then we'll hit a max power level of about 100 kW, give or take. Giving us supercharger access without reconfiguring would lead to a suboptimal user experience and a lot of slow charging complaints.

      @@brandenflasch I hope so -- guess we'll see on what timeframe Tesla will open it up. Their end goal is 1000 volt support since Cybertruck needs that for peak charging. Also retrofitting to V4 dispensers will solve the charge port placement issue with V4's longer cables.

      1) Mercedes, BMW fans who perceive "luxury" as something that they ASPIRE to, with OPULENCE, VANITY (these ppl care about how much better they feel MENTALLY just by how it looks or how it makes them look)
      2) value based luxury seeker who wants the top of the line /fully loaded car regardless of brand recognition or aesthetics (some TACTILE options/features/creature-comforts, when omitted, make that car a deal breaker regardless of how it looks).
      The top 0.1% rich typically go for the latter of the above -for "understated luxury"- they DON'T go with any recognizable brands like Luis Vuitton/ COACH - they want to feel luxury with tactility, not based on how they think they are perceived by others /how others view them.

    This is the worst video you’ve put up. You’re surprised that the rate goes up during the first few minutes of charging? You aren’t getting that great of rate but blabber away, wow wow. Then you speculate that it will hold the beginning rate all the way instead of actually going all the way to 80 or 100% and showing what it will do. Then you’re arguing with people commenting you are not properly positioned at the charger and you know you are wrong. At least try to position correctly, comment on whether the cable will reach and reposition to inconvenience Tesla owners the least and still charge. Redo the video. You are better than this.

      I am surprised because the booster is the limiting factor and 90kW is normal on all other Hyundai / Kia high voltage EVs on Superchargers (500V limited). I tested charging on another charger to know it holds over 120kW until 70+%.
