    The regenerative brakes are awesome on the ev9. And at 100% charge in eco mode I’m getting an estimated 340-360 miles. I doubt that that’s totally accurate but still notably more than the 280 miles as spec’d.

    Leasing the top end version for 750 pm. No down. Never thought will get an EV but after driving this was sold. Drove Model X, Rivian and this within 2 days of each other. Rivian is awesome but priced a bit high. Also it drives like a Body on frame SUV. This one feels like a regular unibody suv. Range anxiety with the charging network still exists for me. Time will tell. Love your reviews with inputs from the better half and kid chipping in. Keep up the good work.

  • @ZenEndurance
    @ZenEndurance Місяць тому

    I saw one a couple days ago and it looked smart and cool. Driver looked very happy too. But yeah, 4 spoke wheels are no good. Make it look like your car has square tires (like a kid drew it) and 4 spokes put a large gap of stress between the spokes. 5 is the magic number for smart wheel design. More is unnecessary and 4 is risky, especially with a heavy car.

Any chance yall have driven it and can confirm?

    You're asking the wrong question.
    Question is, is it WORTH buying the ev9, over an ICE vehicle?
    My answer is no. EV9 as an in-town family vehicle is great.
    But as an all around family car that can do the town commutes as well as family road trips?? No ev is worth that

    @citibear57 Місяць тому +1

    Second row seats that flip forward 'electrically' are a terrible idea. The designers/engineers probably never considered northern winters with bitter windchill, blowing snow, etc. You want to get in or out as quickly as possible. Pop-out or flip-out door handles are equally bad, not just for weather, but in case a stalker or wild animal is chasing you, you don't want to be fumbling to get the door open, or in the case of the EV9 tester, not even open. Vehicles have become too complex, and it seems that they just try to make things as modern/futuristic as possible without thinking about the issues they may cause.

    • @CapELarry
      @CapELarry Місяць тому +2

      This is very handy for larger families. A small kid can move the seat forward while mom/dad on the other side secures a car seat. If you don’t want them, don’t get them. But they’re not a bad idea just because you don’t like them.
