The steering heater levels are probably the same as in my cupra formentor: level1: hot AF level2: 2nd degree burns level3: HELL boiling flaming soup :/ But yes, it takes some time to heat up.. and when remotely preheating the car, it will only start the steering heating if it's below 0 celsius or something like that.. which is a bummer, since there is no dedicated steering heating button in the app.
Dear Lord. I'm on my knees begging that VW engineers come up with a button for battery heater. First they came up with rear window heater that driver could engage if he/she felt like it. Then they came up with seat heaters that driver could engage if he/she felt like it. Then they came up with side mirror heaters that driver could engage if he/she felt like it. Then they came up with windscreen heaters that driver could engage if he/she felt like it. Then they came up with steering wheel heaters that driver could engage if he/she felt like it. -When will they come up with battery heater that driver could engage if he/she feels like it? I feel like it now.
The new Renault Megane e-tech has a washer for camera for digital rearview mirror ( uses rear wiper) but not it seems for the reversing camera. Hope more EV makers add this feature.
🤣🤣🤣 24:35 "DAD, Uncle Bjorn just told me that......." this is why i stop watching your video when the kids is around.... hahahaha either way good video 🤟
Hi Björn, i have my new Tesla Model 3, since last Friday. It has the new Ryzen, heated Wipers and the new 12v battery. But no double glass Windows at the back. But at night i have weird front lights, i don't know how to explain. They are like adpative. Do you know about something?
How do you find the FLIR Gen 3 infrared camera? Good, acceptable or very good? The temp. limit is at 120 C. Is there one for Android which goes higher to temperatures?
Thx for your fantastic videos (seen them all :-) But what does GEILO mean? Also dont forget the Mercedes ME-card, wich makes you charge on almost any station, just ONE rfdi card no more fipple with dozens of different cards.
Hey bjorn, I was a few Weeks bevor in geilo in the geilo hotel with my Tesla m3p. These Hotel is very nice! At the Morning After i start it was -10 and my tesla couldnt recourse for 1h until the batterie was warm egnough to recourse. 😰😰😂
Which EV was the best in the Geilo test? There are so many that I can't keep track anymore. I think it was the Polestar 2, Fat E-tron or the Tesla Model Y? (In terms of least cold throttling and therefore best for trips in the freezing cold)
In comments there is a link to google sheets. The best efficiency is Model 3 Performance at 136 Wh/km using a total of 93% of it's battery for the entire trip.
@@nachocollantes7602 You are not gonna find a sport city hatchback with the power in fossil version in the brand anyways. The Leon is 245hp but it's fossil, it's more noise than anything else. Still 204hp has better torque. You don't need more. Wait for the one based on ID4 GTX then with 300HP dual motor.
@@AaronStarkLinux Cupra is the sport brand of SEAT. There is always a much more powerful version in Cupra than in SEAT. I think with these versions Cupra is not accomplish it's fundamentals. This car should be named SEAT born as it was intended in the beginning. Don't get me wrong, the car with the 77 kWh battery pack is good...but is far from the American.
@@nachocollantes7602 The problem is software development. They have experience by boosting engines with software modification, but not in the case of electric motors, at least not yet. You have to be patient I think.
power consumption looks ok to me. with the bigger 77kWh battery, this would make more sense to me. still an expensive car. i have a bit of a problem with the cupra brand here. i drive a 22 year old leon cupra tdi 4wd with 150hp. i like it. at that time it was a good performance for a slim pricetag. but now, they completely fucked up the brand. it is not a sports car brand anymore (cupra = cup racing). these cars now want to look like a lamborghini but have poor/average performance. this is a bit too much fake for me now. i will monitor what skoda will deliver in the ID.3 segment in the future. it will have the same performance but probably a bit more elegance. until then, i will drive my old leon cupra. it will probably still last a few years. in three years it might be the right time to switch to an EV.
Yup, better than ID.3 a year ago, with larger, faster, screen, and better info display, but plenty of scope for improvement. The VAG setup could be better than Tesla if it was developed more. Best versions have HUD, mini-display for driver, plus the central screen.
I like some Tesla advances like power electronics, thermal management, supercharger network or battery technology and dislike others such as interior minimalism, touch screen centered interaction, low quality for its price, self driving stuff and repair costs. That said, Tesla did things its own way, even if we like it or not. The issue I really can't stand with EV's is that the legacy automakers followed most of those steps without wondering if they make sense. Why can't an EV have an standard interior?. Why there are no buttons and climate control module anymore?. Why are wheels so big?. If a compact car with 130hp and 1300 kg was ok, why going so high in power?. They could keep the 10 kg/hp ratio, get lower cost in the engine, power electronics and powertrain and create an real car interior with the savings. And, except Polestar, BMW and a couple chinese brands, since they follow Tesla in all this why they don't build an energy efficient D segment sedan such as model 3 and keep with those nonsense SUV - crossover shapes?. I think the EV's are the future, just don't like these products they are making.
@@Robcomesana listen I like EVs I find them neat and that's why I like watching all these videos. With that said I think to answer your question as to why EVs can't have a standard interior with buttons and no nonsense is because then they won't seem as a "car of the future" as much as I like them if I'm being honest they are still an inferior product to ice cars. They take more time to "refuel" and only go half as far. Sure the performance is there but does 0-60 time really matter to the average driver? Electric cars are not a new invention and yes they will be the future because we need to move on from fossil fuel but they're not necessarily a better product. That's why they need to put all those fancy huge screens, glass roofs, self driving capabilities, huge wheel sizes etc. to make you feel like you're buying a state of the art latest and greatest vehicle.
Hello, why do you always make jokes of the kWh/h specification? Basically, this information is much more catchy for the average consumer instead of the trained technician or physicist. The consumer asks himself the simple question: How much energy will the vehicle have added over time or even an hour? From this follows without further ado energy per hour, which corresponds formally to kWh/h. So it makes sense to relate the gain in energy to the hour. That this corresponds physically to a power is again formally correct, but by far not so catchy! Greetings from Germany
I was born to see this Born test by Bjorn :)
Me too... and I am even born on Bornholm to go test drive the born 😂😂

First time ive seen one on that colour, it looks relly nice. Ive just ordered a vapour grey v3 58kwh e-boost. Time is draging waiting for it 😢

If you put this car next to its Volkswagen sibling, would you have the Born IDentity?
The Bjorn IDentity surely? ;)
This is why Norway is the best place for EVs to prove. Cold harsh winters
Is VW going to bring pre-heating on MEB cars to avoid coldgating?

DJ T-Bjurn on the road again 🤘
VW should make a special edition "Cupra Bjørn" with "Shiiiiiiit Package" and ABC (active battery conditioning) for colder climates! :D
How many people going get one off these and call or Bjorn
Born is not cheaper than ID3 in Sweden, actually the other way around for the 77kWh model, then ID3 is cheaper.
Noted the banana airlines-quote there. 😂

But what does GEILO mean?
Also dont forget the Mercedes ME-card, wich makes you charge on almost any station, just ONE rfdi card no more fipple with dozens of different cards.
Geilo is a mountain town in Norway.
Is this the Bjorn ultimatum 🤣
Yes , we want millennium falcon 😍

Google translate?
still think the charging speed size on the phone is larger than it is on a tesla with V11

Does the iX heat up the camera cleaning nozzles?
Unfortunately now towing option just like the ID.3 - a shame...
@14:23 there is a hook on the door for the buttplug.
is it gailo codest can to be?
From the back it almost looks like a seat
Does this unit have heat pump?
Hope that you can get your hands on the ORA cat GT.
Spanish id3. This car should have more horse power. Good one.
There is a version with more HP, this one is just the style and interior.
