I love how the stations in Europe almost all work immediately but whenever I watch your videos in the US you have an issue or other at almost every single charging station.
This only is true for Alpitronic chargers or Ionity.
Alpitronic always works, Ionity works because they repair them very very often.
A typical Tesla driver or driver of another EV knows this and simply doesn't go to stations with e.g. Efacec or ABB hardware (as the first stop) as they are always broken. :P
He was just lucky to always choose the right ones.
If you feel nostalgic and homesick for broken chargers while in Europe just come to the UK
Love the out-of-spec channels! Kyle is so enthusiastic and knowledgeable about EV's and makes the road trips so enjoyable to watch! Sadly most of us can't wrap our heads around affording Taycan's and Plaids!
So Happy I got to meet you guys. And thanks for stopping by, that Polestar bit turned out pretty good - and thanks for plugging my channel 😇
😂 love how the spedometer is hidden, as soon as you come out of a corner...
21:25 This is an Alpitronic Hypercharger. The company is from Bozen (South Tyrol).
One of the most if not the most reliable HW here.
Lots of operators swap their older chargers for Alpitronic units
The hyperchargers are great, never had a problem with them👌🏻
Looks like their CCS chargers are a hell of a lot better than ours.
Man Kyle, you really maxed the car, very few people will ever push their Taycan that hard...you did a real pro review! 👍🏻😎
I love the XT...was thinking 4S...now I think I need a Turbo!! 😄👍🏻
Great video! Thank you for putting it out. That charging curve is insane.
Hi, I hope you did enjoy the driving on our German "Autobahn "! Greetings from Wuppertal, the town you passed on the Autobahn 1 on you way to Hamburg.
Love the vlog as always man
Wow! Great following your drive through Germany and my home country Denmark (and of course Sweden!) The Porsche is truly a marvellous car! You seem like such nice people and i hope you enjoyed being in the nordic!
Great content. I have just recently finished a road trip to Stockholm in my RS4 B7 from Jersey and planning on a Cross Turismo for future trips. This was fun to watch and very useful before leaving the V8 next time !! 👍
Thanks for the windshield call out and for doing something about it!
1:09:25 - it does make sense! individual mattresses allows you to have any hardness that you like and your partner can get any hardness they like. Same for the Frame.
It´s just better for your back and sleep quality without compromising on the sleep quality of your partner.
Welcome to Sweden! Love to see your road trips! =)
the best channel for road trip man!!
Awesome video, love the CT.
amazing trip, and a wonderful produced movie
Beautiful and amazing car!
Nice video. You could have called and stayed at our place on Fyn 😉
Getting caught going over 200 km/h on danish highway, they will confiscate it and sell it. Even if its a lease.
Too bad you crossed Storebælt bridge at night, such an impressive bridge - one of the longest in the world.
Mate, you are amazing. What an amazing video.
Really enjoying all your Euro videos! ❤
Good to see Alyssa🤙🤙
Plus she has a real funny shirt on.
14:00 I drive by this charger on my way home from work every day. Very cool to see you in my area. Also there is another charger directly on the other side of the Autobahn, could have saved you from a detour :D
Anyways awesome video as always!
Perfect road-tripping music. Welcome to my hometown of Gothenburg btw!
Great video and nice music!
Hotel issues could be because of Covid too, they limit the amount of rooms they can check out. Nice trip and good work.
Phenomenal experience/opportunities.
Hi from Gothenburg! Crazy to see all the familiar streets from your video!
Great to find this video. Then again, I ordered a Mamba Green Taycan CT 4 last week and may have to wait 4-6 months - and I live in Denmark, near Copenhagen so perhaps a bit biased. Still great, though ...
Another Great video. And funny to see one of the UA-camrs im following suddenly show up, when wondering why he havent made any for some time.
Love the music in the video 👌🏽
Agreed...very Euro road trip! 😎👍🏻
Yeah it can charge quick but what you did was practically toasting the battery. Charging at such speeds and temperature is a killer combo to make sure this battery doesn’t live long. It’s important to mention that. Heat kills batteries, be it an iPhone one or a Porsche Taycan one
Picking up my Model Y LR November 2nd. No matter how many videos and blogs I always learn from you Dave. Thanks. Greg, you’re smile says it all, congrats.
Truely a Dream of a Car!!!
1:27:40 270 kW, finally captured on display! 😁
4-72 % in 18 min. and 64.2 kWh delivered means an average charging speed of 214 kW - insane it can keep it over 200 kW!
It's really awesome! But, the 64 kWh include charging losses. Since Taycan can only charge max. 85 kWh into its battery under this conditions, 68% SOC means roughly around 58 kWh charged (taking into account that OCV curve is not linear). So, probably around 190-195 kW average which is still top notch.
love the synth music :)
Whow whow whow.....speechless
That car looks so wide even on the German back roads, dread to think tight that would feel in the UK
Just for info if someone is going up north and thinking about taking ferry or not. Its just 45 min journey over Fehmarn sound from Puttgarden Germany to Rodby Denmark. Ferries leave every 30 mins except during very early hours of the night when they leave once an hour. When driving ICE car its the route to take since it provides good rest time between 600km+ fillups. There is currently tunnel being build under sea so in about ten years time its even faster connection. Already now its 135km's shorter route.
alyssa 🙌
Kyle, you cannot stop charging by hitting button on car unless car is unlocked 1:23:20 Also that may have been your problem with opening the charge port. The swipe to open only works if the car is unlocked. That’s also true for the manual port. I also kept the manual port on my Taycan so that I could leave it open to let others plug in my car at a level two station where we have shared charging at my workplace.
Great road trip video Alyssa and Kyle.
For best cooling Kyle likes to put the car in sport+ mode, but is it this really neccessary?
I always thought it is the other way round and the car would heat up the battery for best performance... 🤔
@@abraxastulammo9940 I was always told about the heating of the battery in sport plus mode as well, but I think sport plus mode does both heating or cooling in extreme measure to attempt to keep the battery at a optimal driving temperature which I believe is the same as a optimal charging temperature so Kyle may very well be correct that it would cool the battery if it were too hot in a more aggressive fashion. I personally have seldom used it as routing to a charger does an excellent job of preparing the battery for optimal Charging.
You don’t want to go excessively fast in Denmark. If you are caught exceeding the speed limit by 50%, e.g. 195 km/h on a 130 km/h highway, the police will seize your vehicle and sell it for the benefit of the government.
Haha it’s hilarious when he goes faster than the speed limit the speedometer display is pixelated.
Hypercharger HYC300 by Alphitronic. 300 is max speed ( 2 units 150 ). You have 150 ( 2x75).
Now recently HYC400 = so 2 x 200 kw and max out 400. Fastned is using all these chargers ( recent locations ).
But many more OPC do. So stalls with that screen and build are always alphitronic chargers.
hmm, gotta check out those Aral chargers next time I drive through Germany. Totally missed them this year for some reason. they must be new. didn't even see them in plugshare.
They started to roll out those chargers early this year, but it was just four Aral stations with chargers in Germany in February when they opened the first ones. Their goal is to have over 500 charges at over 100 Aral stations operational by the end of 2021.
Some gas stations sell those converters like the place where you were getting a charge
Nice video
The groovy synthwave track is called "Meet Me In Tokyo" by Evgeny Bardyuzha.
01:03:00 I just stayed at their sister hotel in Middelfart last week and they had a 22kW AC charger so I didn't have to supercharge to get back home. sweet.
Middelfart gets really windy..
22:30 It surely is!
22:49 Thanks for giving us clear view! ☺️
How is the asphalt smoothness in Germany compared to other countries (e.g. Norway)?
In my experience it’s pretty smooth, a lot of it is concrete based. But a lot of thunks due to running over the gaps between the concrete.
I have yet to find a good charge station in USA, every fast charge station works in Europe. Americans have a hard time wit the pay Badezimmer (restroom) but you’re paying for the cleaning and stocking. Restrooms in Europe are amazing. This might be the most successful EV road trip you’ve ever done. Believe it was showing you 80 km in a 110 km zone due to night time. Around Stuttgart there are roads that are 40 km during the day and 30 km at night-great idea. “Where is the hotel” cracked me up.
you drove right past me at Vissenbjerg after Middelfart
Extreme rapidgating! I guess even a German car maker wouldn't expect their car to run flat out all evening and fast charge all the way too. Interesting to see how hot the temps got though
14:16 So bold to try that "e-off" charger as we jokingly say it. 😉
But I saw you did not push it in all the way and therefore it does not have secure contact to start.
UA-camr Nico Pliquett also "tested" this charger with Taycan, but he has the tendency to show/demonstrate what is not working outside the Tesla world...
This efacec charger would need a second power cabinet to increase the provided power from 175 to 350 kW.
Kyle, would you recommend optioning the passenger display in a CT? I'm often finding that I wish I could have a map open while also having another screen showing audio or whatever, or even one map showing a 50-mile/km field and another map showing only about a couple hundred meters/yards (so you can read all the road names that you're passing). I'm wondering what is missing from the passenger display (vs. the center display), and whether it is fully functional if there is no passenger in the front seat. (I don't like the map display in the instrument panel.)
You can see the map on the instrument cluster. The passenger display is for the passenger!
great video. i do have to say, the high pitch noise the blue aral chargers admit is very very annoying, and gives me a headache. might even be worse than old crt's did. other than having to bypass while you were charging/standing near while charging with the aral's chargers.
25:06 The next Ionity station was just 6 km north. ; )
Sometimes I don't know what the point of the Porsche route calculation is. The Ionity charger is at the next parking lot just 6 km from there and right next to the Autobahn, so why does the navigation want you to exit the Autobahn and go to Aral Pulse? Not only is it inconvenient and time consuming to unnecessarily exit the Autobahn, but Ionity is even cheaper for Porsche drivers since Porsche is one of the Ionity owners.
Has any Tesla driver ever experienced that a Tesla wants you to go to a non-Tesla fastcharger if the next Supercharger is within range and next to the route? That Porsche system definitly needs to be improved.
I have found that the Porsche maps here in the USA are also badly outdated in places... On more than one occasion, an expressway that is several years old fails to show on my Porsche navigation maps in 2021... I have thus driven "off-road" according to the maps for many miles... bizarre, and worrisome...
Great video. I am not sure you will ever read this Kyle, but I see that you use Normal Individual as your drive setting a lot. I have a Tycan 4 CT, and wonder how you set your Individual setting up.
Does your Nav also lags as much as this one? I mean this Video here is 3 years old. Just asking.
I like that you blurred the speedometer during low speed zones. Someone knows the law or the terms & conditions of the lease.
I don't know how far in advance you're uploading these, but you should definitely contact Bjørn Nyland in Norway
Great roadtrip, seems the problem with this car is that charging often takes too long, because you also would need some time to admire this awesome car. Have a great trip in my home country Norway ! Try visit the the waterfall valley when going to/from Bergen (Skare - Odda RV 7) and if you happens to pass Gudvangen (E16) take 5 at the Joker shop and count how many waterfalls you can through the sunroof... Really many awesome roads north of Bergen that I have taken my own EV on roadtrips.
Efacec are the chargers ea replaced on I 95. They don’t install that brand anymore
What do you think about the possibility of doing long distances in the US with the new F-150 Lightning? 230 or 300 mile battery.
Did that Mustang Mach-E at the Ionity station in Sweden magically change colors?
I'm impressed with the charging so far. Everyone hasworked and they are close and easily accessible.
Great video! Hope next time you in Norway you can try out some NIO as they rolling out there :)
Köln is the best ✌🏼
Why couldnt you take the train from Gøteborg ex-Norway to Oslo Norway? Ive done that many times both ways.
Just having to go through and blurring the speed throughout this video must have taken most of the editing time lol.
What is a shame is the laggy interface in almost every carbrand
Which charging card are you using for the aral stations ?
You can’t get the polestar 2 with thunder paint and nappa leather unfortunately
Great video, but what song is that playing at 12min in?
33:30 I don't think that you will find snacks in this 24h market. Based on the fact that it says 'follow your lust' and 'adventurous' up there, I would expect them to sell toys for adults.
When r u and Bjorn gonna do a colab!?
Unbelievable how laggy the Nav is. For such an expensive car I want everything to be smooth.
For someone interested in a (now) low cost Taycan, good info! You seem like a genuine guy, I appreciate that! Please don’t hand film! The life you save may be my childrens’ Ahhhh I get it now, sorry dude, hope she finds someone…😊
Love my Model Y but holy cow that interior is incredible. Dash screens look amazing as do the seats.
What was highest speed driven at that efficiency
Tycan Cross Turismo is a beautiful machine. The infotainment seemed laggy though. Especially when Kyle was trying to zoom into the map. Is it always this laggy?
I think that we're looking at such a new computer system that it's not unlike situation surrounding the iPhone OS back around 2008-2009 in terms of early stages... Porsche had one of the most ancient infotainment screens/systems until 2018, when they started adding in a much-improved system. I suspect that their BEV OS system (which is very different from what's in Porsche ICEVs in 2021 models) will be much improved in a couple of years (like 2023-2024)... Porsche has always focused more on driving dynamics than on their computer screens...
Dashboard and wheels
So how long it took you from nurburgring to hamburg?
Dont get it how the can call turbo on electric car?
what size alloys on this?
What charge card do you use in Germany ?
I thought one of the Taycan's strengths compared to the Model S is supposed to be the quiet cabin. So I was a bit dismayed to hear all the road/wind noise when the car was traveling at speed on the Autobahn.
At 220+, the noise and vibration is insane and pretty scary on normal cars. I thought it was pretty quiet in the Taycan.
So what is the efficiency of the car kw/mile at each average speed? would it be better to go 130km/h if you can go twice as far? whats the most efficient highway speed of this car with the 2 speed gearbox?
For the Model 3, the fastest it can go before charging becomes longer is 190 kph. Taycan I'd imagine can do a bit more. But the returns are quickly diminishing above 150 kph.
@@wojciechmuras553 lol that’s jail time in 🇺🇸
This place has more trucks
Good vid, was she making face is?
Try the mercedes eqs
Always great videos! My family loves your energy, What is the maximum ground clearance? We have a driveway issue. Thank yourself
Love the Taycan but not too sure about the Cross Turismo - not as good looking. P.S. Two Mustang Mach-E's in Western Sweden - wow!
Question is, did you get your refund from the Cromwell??
Well it would be better if the charges were right at the highway stop.
LOVE the vid and love the car but man, Porsche infotainment really looks like it needs some work. That navigation map is laggy AF.
What radar detector would you recommend for the US?
Most police cars have multiple Laser scanners now so the old fashioned radar detectors cannot help you anymore. By the time the detector sings, police have your speed stored and you’re sunk. Nothing beats a good eye these days.
My RAV4 does great and only cost $32,000
Configurations
4 $93,700
4S $110,300
Turbo. $153,500
Amused and surprised to see the US-style "STOP" sign in English.
STOP sign is universal and not a US original sign.
Before Tesla PLAID Porsche was not that far begind Tesla in terms of performance and range. Now, Im wondering if Porsche will catch up again.
