- It’s time for another carwow EV range test!
We’ve got our hands on six of the latest all-electric SUVs to hit the market, and we’re about to see just how accurate the manufacturer’s claimed ranges are! So let’s take a closer look at the cars we have joining us.
First up it’s the Volkswagen ID Buzz. It comes with a single electric motor that drives the rear wheels and can produce 204hp. The edition we have here also comes with a 77kWh battery which is good for a claimed range of 255 miles. The one we have here also costs £65k, although the range starts from £57,000.
Next up it’s the Mercedes EQA. This edition has a single motor that drives the front wheels and can put down 190hp. We’ve got our hands on the entry-level version, which costs £52,000, and it comes with a 71kWh battery that comes with a claimed range of 263 miles.
We also have the Nissan Ariya joining us for this test. The Ariya comes with a starting price of £46,000, although the version we have here cost around £54,000. As a result, it comes with an 87kWh battery which has a claimed range of 310 miles. Its single electric motor can also produce 242hp.
Next up it’s the Audi Q4 Sportback. The Q4 range starts from £52,000, although we’ve got our hands on the dual motor edition which costs around £64,000! As a result of the two motors, it can put down 299hp, and the 77kWh battery has a claimed range of 312 miles.
The penultimate car in this line-up is the Genesis GV60. With a 77kWh battery, this single-motor rear-wheel-drive edition can produce 229hp and it has a claimed range of 321 miles. The entry-level GV60 costs from £54,000, and the one we’ve got here costs £63,000.
Then finally we have the Tesla Model Y Long Range. The range starts from £45,000 and comes with a single electric motor. As for the Long Range, this costs from £53,000, and it also comes with dual motors that can put down 384hp. It also has a 75kWh battery which has a claimed range of 351 miles.
So how do you think these will compare? Will the oh-so-popular Tesla Model Y win it? Or could we see a different competitor go the furthest? You’ll need to stick with Mat for this all-new EV range test to see for yourself!

thanks man
I avoid highways in the electric car. Highway in an N/A Petrol 3.2 Volvo, the Turbo Diesel mated to a torque converter auto has the efficiency of highway and city, but in “heavy” traffic, the EV instant torque is great dealing with traffic, even the best turbo diesel is going to feel laggy compared to an EV and your fuel usage goes through the roof in the city with an old Heavy inline 6 Volvo.
But the EV will drain as soon as you’re on the highway.
Also, worth getting “normal” tyres on the EV, because economy tyres are awful.

Thx
This demonstrates that you need to carry a lithium battery block with 120v and 240v outlets(preferably 2units) in trunk or backseat. Don’t forget a charge cable.
Coming from a Tesla owner, the voice commands work great but the reason the wipers didn't turn off is because he had on cruise control. That automatically sets the wipers into auto and it will remain there until you take off the cruise control
Tesla is garbage
I am OBSESSED with tesla, they have voice command??
@@infiniteasmr341yes they do
With the new update last week, you can now turn the wipers off while driving with cruise control.
There any chance you can include kilometer range in these kinds of tests?

Just multiply the miles by 1.609
@@kristian5009 I’m well aware of how to do it, but having to do it when you’re getting battered with numbers every other second takes away from the viewer experience. I’d miss half the video if all I’m doing is doing math.

I am not sure if this is the sam as my qq.. but I really like it! It is useful and not disturbing! Very useful!
The takeaway seems to be that most cars will do 80% of their stated range.
Worth remembering when looking for a new car.
That is because it is just a theoretical range based on absolutely perfect conditions at a constant speed on a absolutely flat surface.
@@SilvaDreams Not really, EV's are less efficient on the highway, it was not a combined test of city and highway driving, it was all highway. Cold than average temperatures another factor.
@@GDM22 It was "cool" weather, batteries do fairly well up until they hit freezing or below because it slows the chemical reaction within the battery and besides those large battery packs require cooling when charging or discharging.
You mean, when looking for a hybrid car? At 80% range with practically no charging stations around these EVs are worthless.
@@mutteringmale in 2016 the average distance between charging stations was under 4 miles, and the longest was 47 miles.
We have more charger now than in 2016.
All these vehicles can do many multiples of that.
This is a tired argument.
Also worth pointing out range is totally dependant on driving style. Last week I did a 90mile stint at a steady 60mph (actual avg was 56mph due to some roadworks on the M25) in an 18th month old Model Y with 18,000 miles on the clock, and got 193Wh/mile or 5.2 miles/kWh which would give a range of about 390 miles. In short, decreasing speed drastically increases range - who knew? Disclaimer - weather was warm, no wind and so climate control was only ticking over. I was the only occupant. Accel mode was Chill with basic autopilot on most of the time
no chance you get 390 thoough - youll never hold those conditions the whole way, its BS
@JW-qf2fx Not really I've done the same in my sons tesla no need to be jealous I'm not.
thats reassuring. I am planning to get a Model Y SR and my idea (after watching tons o videos) was to dress up like an eskimo.. turn off all climate control.. drive in chill mode at 65mph tops on cruise control (mostly interstate driving) to get the max range out of it.. i know the non EV folks will have a field day with this.. LOL..
The ID Buzz uses the same heating element/resistor to heat up the cabin as the ID3 and ID4. For its size this is not enough and winter tests done in Finland this year showed that even after 30 minutes of driving the temperature of the rear foot well was below freezing when the outside temperature was -15°C.
This van really needs a heat pump and a larger heating element.
Insane, one would think the price includes all the latest tech. I start to wonder; why this excessive pricetag?
@@Maarten_vd cuz its electric :|

@@joeykiller yes.
I find it ironic that all our politicians are pushing these EVs without making any upgrades to our electrical grid...what's the point of buying a EV if you can't ever charge it??
Very interesting! Thank you for this test; it is an informative approach to answering everyone's common question about EV range with no hype.
I'm impressed by Genesis and Nissan. Quite good range I think
Why Nissan? 3.2 mi/kWh is the same like Audi and Mercedes.
@@smokalot6663 yes. Proto Motor Spirra also lasted further than even Genesis.
@@smokalot6663 EV gets terrible mi/kWh on motorway .....
@@smokalot6663 that's the reason. Cause its efficiency is the same as those two premium brands

20:44 You can't turn off wipers when in autopilot. Love the video Mat!
Exactly. But mine shows this as a message. Did not see that in the video, maybe autopilot was not engaged?
@@Maarten_vd it was engaged. You could see the blue lines on the screen for autopilot

@@naturalmosaic You are right! 👊
@@purwantiallan5089 only the tesla, not the jag
Love it. I just got an Opel Mokka 50kWh which in theory could make 200 miles. But never tested it in the red zone 😅 would love to see a test with the smaller battery cars.
You probably will get 120 or 130 miles max😢
I had a trip with the Mokka fully loaded. 2 adults and 2 kids. Drove 100km/h and easly made 300km (190mile).
How stupid can you be .. 😂😂😂
I love how electric cars will give Matt a pessimistic range and a optimistic range just so Matt can see what he could have gotten and what the car will give him based on his driving.
In my opinion the most important number in the final numbers is the % of claimed range. Clearly every manufacturer lies a little. Hats off to Nissan for being the most honest in its range claim and hats off to Tesla for once again beating everyone.
80% of the range they claim seems more than a little white lie. Seems terrible to me!
At the end of the day, he’s in a Tesla so it’s a total loss🫠
too bad the tesla is build like a toy car, I've never seen a worse car in my life. EVERYTHING is loose, water can come in everywhere. i will never ever own a tesla. And yes, ive been working on cars my whole life.
Yes, because KIA and Hyundai wasn't there.
That is not claimed range. When will people get this out their heads? It is the result of standardized tests like EPA or WLTP which are mandatory.
Also these tests were NOT designed to test consumption but emissions for combustion cars.
And they were not designed to give you accurate real world results but comparable results.
Before EVs everyone knew to get the real consumption you just add around 20% more and you get a good idea.
Such a useful test. Adding a km score next to miles would be the finishing touch. Thanks so much!

Bearing in mind how dull ev’s essentially are, I thought the video was really interesting
Good job 👍
Great video Mat - thank you!
I drive a Nissan Ariya 87kw with 19 inch wheels which, as you said, has a greater range, but also much more comfortable than the 20 inch version. The tyre sidewalls make a huge difference. My experience when I first got the car last October (15C) was a consistent range of 300 miles dropping to 250 when it was around freezing in January.
I’ve heard the criticism of the head room before - I am 6ft 2in and suffer no such issues even with the panoramic roof fitted. I put it down to the fact that when the seat is pushed further back, more headroom is created, and us tall guys tend to have the backrest more inclined as well.
I really love the Ariya - a truly great all-rounder.
I am 6ft1 and have head room to spare front and back. No electric car can return as much headroom relative to it's height than an ICE car. Ariya has great ground clearance, the there is the battery. I think they made the most out of it. And I love, that this is a proper SUV and you don't have to watch out on every curb or bump. At least where I live, that's key. Even more impressive, that it delivers such good efficiency. It's a damn good car indeed. Lots of refinement, air purifying system, digital rear view mirror, great matrix headlights and HUD, super low losses when charging via AC and DC, extremely flat charging curve so good speeds nonetheless, in winter it actually is faster than most, over the air updates from factory with two SSD system, so no sitting around anymore, waiting for an update to finish...good stuff!
300 kilometers range is shit.
The rest of us only have two feet, not six!
@@anderstermansen130 it seems like you are not capable of reading.

@@purwantiallan5089 it isnt when you comment under every single comment
eh, its only real world if you're driving only on highway - all of these cars would have drastically lower ranges if driven in a town
@@fug33 Pretty sure its the opposite, ev’s perform worse on highway speeds
@@fug33it’s literally the exact opposite of that
You are so dynamic and fun to watch! I just got a 2024 Tesla Y. I love it so far.
Very good video!! The wipers will not turn off while you're on autopilot though because the cameras need them. also when you turned the steering wheel it disengaged autopilot and that's why it moved over 2 lanes. if you look at the screen it will show blue lines when autopilot is engaged.
the car will also not change lanes by itself. but you can change this in the settings.
Personally, I think the engineering decision of the Tesla technical team (how much pushed by Elon, I have no idea) to rely EXCLUSIVELY on cameras for all autopilot decision making is a real dangerous mistake. Even if it becomes good, the best it can do is what a human is capable of. If it used sensor fusion, it could conceivably become BETTER than human (see in fog, bad rain, etc) and be an actual safety enhancement device. Instead, I will always be leery of Tesla's autodrive technology. I prefer a company that is conservative and UNDER-promises and OVER-delivers, instead of Tesla that OVER-hypes and UNDER-delivers.

When the Tesla crossed two lanes auto pilot was off. You also cannot turn off auto wipers when in auto pilot.
As much as I like Tesla the auto wiper is just idiotic, no idea what’s wrong with a rain sensor
@@azureactivedirectory They just updated it this month. Much better now.
You also can't turn auto wipers off if you want to use cruise control. Very irritating...
@@johnmckay1423 Press the button on the left hand stalk in. On your dash you will see the split view pop-up to set your wiper off, 3 different speeds and Auto. Seen so many of these videos - and i really like Carwow btw- but where the drivers don’t really know how it all works. Maybe the editing or “for drama”.
@@DigitalProphet_ And if you have one of the current models without radar (and no ultrasonic parking sensors) 🤦♂️🙄 if you turn on cruise control the auto wipers turn back on, whatever setting you've set the wipers to. If you turn off auto wipers, it cancels the cruise control.
The 2020 model year version with radar did not work this way - it was how you said. I swapped from one to the other in January.
We have a contractor in Kentucky USA that travels from Menasha WI. He has a Tesla and is very pleased with performance and charging options. People in the area wouldn't think of Kentucky as the best area for EVs but he loves the car so much that he and his wife both have a Tesla and he is looking to upgrade to the higher end models. He normally runs between 80% and 10%, stopping for fast charge when possible and slow charge at motels if fast charge not available.
Great vid !! Fun and informative with a bit of that dry British humor!

Like your content,always fun,,respect from Belgium 🇧🇪
An enjoyable and interesting group test, however what would be interesting (and also useful IMO), is to see how the cars ranked when you take into consideration what their average speed was during the tests!?
We only get to see brief insights into this during the video, and from what I saw the different drivers had quite different driving styles, hence some were probably travelling a fair bit quicker than others at times, thus their higher avg. speed is likely to have caused the performance to suffer.
Very interesting to see this test, as you were able to have the same route and weather conditions. Gives way more useful info for comparison to most range tests out there. Good job!
the bottom line though is that unless you have a RELIABLE, EXTENSIVE FAST-charging network like Tesla's you won't be able to go ANYWHERE outside of 150 miles from home. That is the deal killer for most other cars!
Petrol and diesel cars will run out of fuel at some stage too.

VW will be last to accept NACS -here’s why. Re: CCS Repudiation. Any computer programmer can reverse engineer CCS back to its original requirements specs & conclude it was “born brain dead” to be the exact opposite of what would become known as NACS, just to cynically spite Diesel Gate sanctions & intentionally deter EV adoption. VW’s greatest “success”! The chickens are coming home to VW’s roost. Pride & arrogance always precedes the fall. Not yet mentioned is whether non-NACS cars will have the “totally Tesla” seamless charging experience, including Navigation-embedded availability & pricing, plus automatic billing, along with 99% uptimes. Regardless, each use will expose previous CCS users to NACS’ diametrically opposed superiority, making them rue the day they were hoodwinked into buying into the CCS-sphere.
Agreed but he should keep both hands on the wheel at all times. Sorry to be a wet blanket.
Nice to see a real world test in this way. Tesla is clearly in a league of its own.
It's so far ahead of the competition it's unreal
All electric vehicles are made for millenials , propagandabelievers and old People that believe all what is said on their propaganda newsprogram . Thé worst mammals in this world
Nice video, excelent content! One feedback is when you make the check on all vehicles, add like a table to make easier to compare, is difficult to remember all numbers ahahhahah
Matt, you know that you actually turned off the "clever stuff" at 19:17 :) there was a sound and icon went from blue to gray..also that beeping sound mean that you are departing your lane... so you were the one who went all across the road :D otherwise i love these videos... great job
Another great range test! It goes to show how things have changed that if I was looking for an EV in this segment it would be between the two that aren't legacy brands. Can't wait for the next video in this series.
Amazing from the Tesla. 11% more efficient than the next best, longest range by a fair distance and the second best in terms of getting close to claimed range.
I'll stay well clear, great vid - thanks!
The Genesis looks like an awesome package.
Correction Tesla says 330 mi on model Y but the model 3 is 351, the two are often confused.
Oh and every time you tried making the autopilot turn into another lane you where actually turning off the autopilot and letting the car almost fly into the barrier it was going to make the change but you turned the wheel and that turns it off.
interesting that the tesla Ui is so counter intuitive even a car expert is bamboozled
@@nyc863 agree to disagree It takes a while to learn but really easy to get a hold of It doesn't take an expert to learn and I'm pretty sure he doesn't drive every kind of car wherever he goes let's including Tesla and it definitely will not be the first time we see him get confused with a vehicle interface and you could literally see on the big fat screen in the middle of the car that it was indicating that it was going to make a lane change there's plenty of information on it already without having the change in menus.
You are a fighter fair play, I would never attempted that job on my own on jack stands . 😮
Bottom line is the selected route makes all the cars hover between 75 and 86% of rated battery capacity with a mean of 80% and modus of 79%.
As efficiency per mile is primarily driven by aerodynamics. This test doesnt mean a lot.
But fun non the less.
Such an entertaining video guys! You all have big balls to drive your EV’s to they quit. Pretty funny when you calling out only a meter or two from the charger. Keep these good videos coming.!
May I use clips of this video to talk about it on my channel or make a short?
Always a pleasure to see the videos but, yeah, it would be nice to have on the post processing some included calcs from miles to km and to kWh/100 km. This is an open world so the viewers should be treated as such 😊
It’s a British channel. You don’t see American channels changing theirs to miles
28:50 i wouldnt have turned that signal on 😂
Thanks for taking one for the collective team.
I luv these EV range tests you do! Please keep doing them along with the EV drag races!
Love these range videos! Keep them coming!!
You should do this test again but with a full family simulation loadout with extra weight, 4 people, baggage etc and see how much that changes things. Be interesting.
agree, plus not driving 90% on highway where you never have the recuperation u would have driving country roads and cities. maybe starting in a city (ends are in a city like area already in this video), driving a country road up to a certain point (maybe 50% of the average of all cars claimed range) and then highway until warnings.
In Arizona with full AC where this week it will be 112° this week.
In that case I believe every electric car will lose 80 to 90 miles of their range at least.
good test. just a idea. the old vw beetle had a lever under the dashboard for 10 more miles of gasoline haha.interesting would also be what the recharge cost was.
Activating voice control, then 'requesting' to change lanes to follow route, then confirming, then having to watch over it so it doesn't cross multiple lanes or hit a cone all seems a LOT harder than just putting on your blinker and turning the wheel a bit ...
It's a solution chasing a problem, right?
You normally just click the blinker on and it goes over one lane, but that's FSD Beta. The FSD Standard is meh, but he turned the wheel too far and disengaged autopilot so that's why it kept going. It just wasn't very obvious to him at the time.
I also dont like to talk when Im driving, so buttons are a must-have for me.
ussually you will say something like "take me to work", " take me back home", or maybe "continue driving to the destination".. not simple tasks like change lane or open the door.
@@fradius1 haha, no talking ?? i talk to myself a lot even on my own. usually to 😅moan at something or someone.
Being a Tesla owner, I get the awkwardness for autopilot. Changing lanes you have to be very gentle otherwise you disengage (as Matt did), it also has a fear of cones so I'm surprised it didn't push you off the road a lot earlier. Either way a great video and great comparison and some good looking cars there too. Personally I'd love a ID Buzz
The second time when he changed lanes he didn't even have autopilot on...
I work for a VW dealership. I both love and fear the fervor that ID Buzz is going to produce.
Just wait when you need a new battery. But then you will have changed it . Saving the planet my ass as Jim royal would say .
@@colingregson8653 Tesla is recycling almost all of the components in batteries they replace, even giving you restored batteries as replacements. As for frequency of replacement, if you aren't an extremely aggressive driver, you likely won't not to replace it within 250k miles.
Or, Tesla Autopilot has no fear of cones and just runs them over. Speaking from experience here.
very valuable video, I knew the Tesla would win, but interesting mostly to see how far the car will go on 0 battery. I could not find this info anywhere, but it seems to be about 10 miles.
I live in a remote area, charge-station wise, but this has slightly reduced my range anxiety. many thanks
Late to reply here, but it's a 3 kWh buffer below 0% on all Tesla's, so pretty much exactly 10 miles based on the average efficiency. Not something you want to count on every time, but really great in an emergency when the Supercharger's broken or something.
This reminds me of that Seinfeld episode when Kramer kidnaps the car salesman during a test drive and drives until they run out of gas 🤣
Very interesting to see the rescue part! We don't see this often at the end of your range tests, I think last time was with the Zoe plugged into a classic house outlet 🙂
Don’t expect that service normally. They’ll have had plenty of advance notice of the job, after winning a bid to feature in the video. Selected their most experienced staff accordingly. In reality a bloke stranded in a farmers field would be super low priority and you’d be waiting hours for an crap mechanic to turn up and scratch his head at a Tesla 🤪
@@Oppinnindi I know, but I like this "behind the scenes" 😉
Stupid or not, to run out of juice in an ICE it's recovery via a jerry can and you're on your way, with every EV its a full recovery on a trailer.
@@mikemanship There is vans with ev chargers
Why can't you use a jumper cable to get just enough of a charge to make it to the nearest charging station?
19:07 Just so you know, that wasn’t “Navigate on Autopilot” as Matt said, it was basic autopilot (NoA has different interface with a single blue path line, rather than blue lane markings on the side).
Also when changing lanes, Matt disengaged the Autopilot by applying too much force, which is why the car “changed two lanes”
Searching for this comment 👍
You're right, but Tesla's ADAS is a bit finnicky and not always confidence-inspiring, even with its very impressive safety statistics. I say that as a three year Model 3 owner who is excited by the potential of Tesla's FSD when it finally arrives (unlikely to be very soon).
@@Muskar2 I agree. That being said, if you do a car review, it’s only fair to show the real capabilities and limitations of the system.
@@AppleReviewsPL Sure. I think many people often don't realize how much car reviews are more like 60% entertainment 40% facts though. If you want facts, see a good mechanic and/or look into it yourself. That's how I see it anyway.
Unsurprisingly the long-range model went the furthest lol
Very interesting, I'm glad YT recommended this video. Do you have any Chinese imports there? Tesla was the biggest seller here for quite some time but I am seeing more and more BYDs on the road and I think they have overtaken Tesla in sales. I did drive a Honda civic Hybrid while I was still back in Canada, but I only drive e-bike over here cause the traffic is just too crazy for my comfort. Even though I'm not driving any more, I still like to keep up on changes in the auto sector.
20:02 you can adjust the Steering Mode in your settings (under “Pedals and Steering”)… You are probably in “Sport” mode, but it also has Standard and Comfort
I have a Genesis GV60 Performance. Here in the US we don’t get the rear wheel drive model. I love the car. Plus it’s very fast with a 0-60 of 3.7 seconds. Range is about 235 miles. That’s the only downside.
When you say 235mi, that is what they claim or what you get before needed to charge it again? Also, if it is your personal, how much of the highway is in your average drive? Thanks
@@DS-pk4eh it’s true range. Hyundai-Kia doesn’t overestimate range like Tesla. 😂
@@JohnLee-db9zt Tesla doesn't either as I am getting the range they claim with my Model 3. My average after 17'000km is 14.2kWh/100km. And it is 50% or a bit more highway, and I drive normally.
I love that ID Buzz too Matt.
'The road is closed telsa...n*bhead' haha
I drove the Ariya and it’s incredible, I absolutely loved it
My biggest issue when I tested it in May 2022 was the central display, it seemed to have a weird soft focus, it was so odd
I like the quick review on the chargers when stopped. I think at the end of the video when the cars have flat batteries they should do a charging race to 200 miles or 80% just so people know what car has the best charging curve
That would make Tesla look too good
@@TheCreamRisesToTheTop I reckon it would make tesla look as good as it is. How would it make it look *too* good?
That would not work since all the cars run out of battery in different places where there are different types of chargers and charging speeds.
@@TheCreamRisesToTheTop I don't think so as the Hyundai platform charges at 350kw. Tesla is 250kw
@@chillout1109 yeah I agree it would be difficult but when the cars battery is flat and on a flat bed. If they can go to the closest 350kw charger and do it there. It doesn't have to be the exact charger just the same network and charging speed
This is the way to go, put them to the test directly then we'll get a true comparison in the real world....Ballsy stuff I'm impressed. You might muck about some, but you do a good job mate. That Nissan is a beautiful car, love that too!
My dad works at Vw and I’ve been in a id buzz like 3 times and it was so cool and fun
Well, considering that the temparature control was enabled, interior lights and all the extra goodies, I would say the claimed ranges are not too far off.
You're right there. The claimed range of the cars are based on summer weather driving which would be warmer and dry conditions which makes it the optimal conditions for the battery. Getting 80% + in claimed range in the conditions the cars were tested in is good also can depend on a person's driving style
@@robertbroughton9327 happy fasting month 2023, Rob Broughton.
20% is way too too far off. You are not even supposed to use the car from 100% to 0% in the real world as it reduces the battery life. Manufactures should have to quote real world achievable figures, not some nonsense that only works downhill, on a sunny day with no wind and no lights on
@@arcadeuk They are achievable, in the summer. Also the range is rated for mixed driving, not only highway.
Say hello in 2 years when batteries degrade and you turn the heating on lmao in winter
NoA works well in my Model X, i noticed that it showed the 2 lane basic autopilot instead of the 1 line from NoA when you tried to do various maneuvers. NoA is only engaged when it shows the 1 line
This should have taken a lot of logistics and organization and money too, so well pulled off, congratulations to Matt and the whole team for a huge production that was very, very informative. Down in my neck of the woods (Istanbul Turkey), 265 miles (ca 430 kms) on a single charge is just not feasible. It is too short.
When the Tesla Autopilot is on you cannot turn off the wipers they have to be on auto . It's needed for the camera visibility. also Auto headlights are selected when you put it on autopilot.
Nissan is back on the game, i don't usually like new nissan cars ;but this new design looks very good..
The "game" is much more difficult currently, despite designing a good car you need to manage to actually produce it in quantities at a decent cost... These things are getting out of control lately
They are tinny.
Mat never fails to wow us with all these awesome reviews, drag races and videos!
Great test - -Thanks
The towing "bolt" for the Tesla screws in "opposite" of the normal way. Probably has the threads in it but was being turned wrong way so it wouldn't go in. At least that is what I remember from my Tesla Model 3.
man i love these real world EV range tests
I can't get enough of this series 😅
Poor Ev's haha 😂
Yes. Carwow series looked like its getting better.
I don't like evs

When you are driving the Nissan, what is the necessity for having the rear cabin lights on? 🤣
Nice work guys
Someone near where I live (Dawson City, Yukon, Canada) bought an EV, and drove it up from out city, Whitehorse. Normally a six hour drive (530km), but at -40C, the range was very low. They had to stop at every charger between the two places. The heater does not work while the vehicle is being charged, so they had to wait, in the cold. The total trip took about 12 hours. It will be a good while for EV's to become popular in Canada's north!
Doesn’t anyone consider reality while pushing for EVs? Winter driving impractical-delays on the road due to accidents, and bam, no electricity and wait for a tow truck in the midst of it all. Yeah, but they’re SO cool looking and quiet!
@@aesea57804 feel free to drive your car at -40°C. I'll bet, it happens the same to the EV cars. No, its getting worse. Your car wont even start.
Of course the first EVs want to reach a big amount of people and do not fit for every special case. And even with that, how is the winter in Norway and how do they have so many EVs when its impractical?
Tebrikler Mat. Seni 2013'te Carbuyer kanalından beri takip ediyorum. Videoların ve anlatımın çok güzel. Ailemden biri gibisin adeta. 8 milyon aboneye ulaşmışsın. Umarım daha on milyonlarca abonen olur. Başarılarının devamını dilerim 🙏💙
The GV60 Number Plate is very funny
In our local vehicle rescue company comes with a large battery pack and charges you and give you a free coffee while u r waiting for charge.
Soon you all need a bigger island to test the electric cars😂
Most importantly the efficiency of the tesla is highest. Also means less costs for charging.
exactly. Mercedes, BYD or Nio add more battery capacity to get a high range, but people forget they pay for the inefficiency
@@romansenger2322 And pay for that extra big battery as well.
@@Maarten_vd and those cars are shitty, its really terrible in real world how bad all others are compared to tesla, they are real shitshows under the hood, even mercedes.
except rivian, lucid and byd, basically legacy is terrible.
The range of my Renault Zoe is 236 miles, but this has dropped to 150 or less in winter and has stayed down during my trip to Brighton!!
The best I could average in my 2022 Model 3 LR was 360 miles at 60 mph you could get your usage as low as 170w/m which was kinda crazy but that's like a nice 60-70F temp to. Just highway speeds of 70 are pretty inefficient and if you go the posted speed you are likely to be involved in an accident because of the other drivers...
And when the Temperature is / Cold Winter Weather like minus 27°C; and keep Room temp at 25°C like we/I would have done my Subaru Legacy Model Ls 1992 ─ Fill up the Tank and one 50l (12 Gallon) Jelly Can. I could/can drive 1000 km in 10hr with 1 hr rest at a Restaurant chatting and ─ in winter time, the Cold Engine even gave me more mileage. While as the Teslas lost more than 50% if its Elon-gates Claimed Range. (Energy Efficiency is nothing but a "double-cost"). My Subaru still 400 lbs lighter than a Tesla Model 3 and the tires Made in Japan by Bridgestone for Winter are still in the Garage and used for Winter; would I not save the World by making uses of a Car for more than 30 year?
And here, the Electric Powers Generated with 90% from Fossils ─ 30% on Coal and 70% on Natural Gas + Oil on those 90% Fossils. So, in other words, my Subaru even cleaner because it does not run on Coals.
Please live a Real Life. Eat real foods, drive real Cars/Trucks.
Impressed to see the Ariya get 86% of its claimed range.
Loved that, seeing that I drive one. Very happy with it personally.
That’s why i’m thinking that the Nissan is the winner overall…
To get the full range you really have to drive efficiently and not use any climate control (unless you just have it set to ambient temperature) and unnecessary features and drive on a perfectly flat route. Car efficiency varies widely depending on the route and the driver. Also, electric cars and hybrids have better efficiency in stop and go traffic because they're using the regen braking as often as they are using the battery to move forward. I have a hybrid and in stop and go it's like free mileage. On the highway you're not using the regenerative braking at all.
So it can drive 860 kilometers, on its graphite battery?
Mmm it’s got the biggest battery by 10kwh, and the same efficiency as the merc and the Audi. As a user it’s good to get that far on a charge but you’ll pay less in the Tesla and the Genesis. To put it in petrol terms it’s got the biggest fuel tank but average mpg
We should get a version of hybrid supercars and see how for they will drive on electric power...
Not far lol
There are no hybrid supercars.
@@techtt6213 ferrari sf90, mclaren artura, porsche 918, mclaren p1, ferrari laferrari, lamborghini Sian, lamborghini countach (new one), Aston Martin valkyrie... Learn what u talk about
@@Mat_revs what about Lexus IS F?
@@krane15 why no hybrid supercar tho??
Great episode reminds me of the old top gear before it turned into a drama
Mat- "Now is not the time do die" No time to die vibes much?
Very profesional test. All the relevant comparising infos for every car, also driving impresions, and fun atmosphere. Matt is a comedy actor, a technical tester, and a video producer in the same time. Fully deserved the 8M subscribers. Congrats and admiration.
And also very cool.
not really, like brake tests against a Tesla which was using winter tires in 2 videos without mentioning it, thats misinformation supreme.
@@JohnSmith-pn2vl I know what you mean. I also comented regarding the braking test that are mostly a tyre test, not car braking test. Not to mention the off road races which are even hilarious. But...
But this video was perfect . And Matt was sharp with the data and funny with comunication.
Not like everytime, I admit.
But he is a real value for us all on the auto review market.
Loved this. I have an Aryia and I absolutely love it. Thought I was settling when I got it but having driven it and see it put against other cars I can't help but feel its up there with the best.
love it Wait till you need a new battery
MATT! YOU MANIAC! you drove on the wrong side if the road!!! 😳 absolut mad-lad 😅
Still my old Mercedes Benz w124 200e E2 from '93 does 500 miles on a full tank.
Great video, quick note on the tesla. You can’t turn off the wipers when on autopilot.
Matt if you have autopilot on you can't turn off windscreen wipers 😊 so the system understood you it just can't do what you want. It's a security features because front camera is in the windshield
Is there any form of boost pack? That could be carried along on the trip, bit like a gallon of fuel.
Please keep making more of these electric vehicle, comparisons, tests, and reviews! BTW, Matt, did you get your model S plaid yet?
No Plaid models have been delivered to the UK yet.
Battery electric vehicles have no advantages. Everything an electric car does, a normal car does better. Every time I stop at a motorway services to grab a drink, I always see some sorry sod sitting in their toy car charging up, and always laugh.
@@hypotheticlz how about cost to fuel or service? Maybe the quiet or the fresh air? What about being able to plug it in at home and never have to use a gas station again?🤔
@@malcolmrickarby2313 but the negative far outweigh the positives. Electric cars are far more impractical, clean air doesn’t matter to the driver (being inside the car and infront of the exhaust) filling up your car takes a couple minutes at most, however with an EV, on a long journey you can expect to wait hours for a recharge. They are also dangerous, and I wouldn’t buy one unless the technology greatly improves. It is in all ways, a downgrade.
@@hypotheticlz as you have mentioned safety I would remind you that every Tesla vehicle has exceeded the best safety scores of every ice car on the road. Your lacking compassion for the people who have to live with the pollution left behind your vehicles and contradictions in your statements remind me of the “what have the Romans ever done for us” skit from Monty Python 😆😅😂🤣
