      Machst du jedes Jahr Service (300-900€) bei deinem Auto? Geht öfter was kaputt bezüglich Verbrennungsmotor?
      Das solltest du noch beachten. Bei meinem PKW war der Abgaskrümmer abgerissen und die Reparatur hat 3000€😢 gekostet! Das alles fällt beim E-Autos weg. Selbst die Bremsankage hält ewig, da 95% mit dem E-Motor gebremst wird. Ich habe Bekannten die ihr E-Auto nach 8 Jahren zum 1. Mal zum Service gebracht haben weil sie das Auto verkaufen wollten. Keine Mängel.
      Okay da hat das Fahrprofil und die Fahrweise viel Einfluss auf den Verschleiß
      Der wichtigste Faktor ist die Batterie und wie diese Geladen wird, das kennen wir ja durch unsere EUC.
      Stelle dir vor es gäbe EUC mit Verbrennungsmotor und Scheibenbremse 🤣, würdest du so etwas fahren? 🤣

      Don't forget the second largest Tesla shareholder is his brother who is on the board along with a bunch of Elon's mates. Which is why they thought it ok to give him a $60 billion salary package even though he is never there and busy doing SpaceX, posting on X trolling everyone and pretending HE is the president.

    I use a VW Touran 1,6 diesel. I bought it 5 years ago used 5 years old. I have never had any problem with it. Just oil change every year, tires, normal staff common for electric and combustion car. It is my first diesel and I love it. Before I had Nissan and Toyota hybrid. It has a parking heater which is great in winter, I use 6 l/100 km during the journey with max speed around 150 - 160 km and I have room for 5 person and a lot of wheels… Any big electric car in my situation would be crazy but I use it occasionally for Holidays and to drive with my kids, every other city journey I do with my euc. What I want to say is that electric car is great as a second car or only one if you live in the city and do not have kids. In other situations combustion car and especially modern diesel is the best option. Concerning Poland where we have coil power plants and Germany with a gas one, diesel is better for environment. My second car is funny VW up, it use the same amount of gasoline as bigger touran, very simple, nice city car but this one maybe I would change for electric one. Otherwise German friends please do what you do best - combustion cars, reliable, and thought through.

      Internal combustion engines have zero torque at 0 rpm and you would also need a gearbox for higher speeds. The response time would also be a problem with balancing. Even if those problems could be solved the wheel would end up being much heavier

      I've seen a vid of a petrol euc, sketchy design but it easy could be changed to petrol to Generater to battery to euc no worries. Not sure what's funny about it. It would run as smooth as they do now.
      There's a channel of a man making fist sized v8.
      A micro v2 would be easy enough I expect, integrated Gen.
      Tho horizontal opposed pistons put out maybe twice the hp, but we all love v2 sound so yaye for noise ha. Being able to don't mean it's the best idea tho. A real v2 gas electric euc? The v2 sound and real vibration, tell me you don't feel drool coming on.

    What I don't understand about EV's is why do you need an app to charge your car. I may have an app to collect points for ICE, but I just need some money to "charge" my ICE.

    • @AJames-jr8kw

      I have heard that in the UK after pressure from EV groups the gov legislated to force charging networks to include tap and go. Other countries gov need to do this and also cap price.

    • @misubisu
      @misubisu 28 днів тому +1

      You need an account with a particular charging network in order use their charging stations. The app is your way of activating the charging station you intend to use, and to pay for the charge when you are done charging. Certain charging stations allow you to use a card with and RFID chip... tap the charging station with your card, fill up and leave... never opening the app at all. Of course, if you charge at home, you never need an app. And there are numerous charging stations around that are free (there are three within ten kilometres of my house).
      EVs are not for everyone... they really only suite the driving habits of around 80% of the road users. I always charge at home using a combination of solar and off-peak power, so 500 km costs me around AU$5.00
      If I wasn't able to charge at home, I would not have bought an EV.

    Dankeschön fürs Video.
    Tja, der Luftwiderstand steigt im ² zur Geschwindigkeit.
    100 km/h ist eine entspannte Reise Geschwindigkeit. Ich denke wenn du öfters lange Strecken fahren würdest, wäre ein Akku mit doppelter KWh sinnvoller. Somit hätten die Stopps zum Laden sich um die Hälfte reduziert.
    Sehr informativ diese Video.

      Air drag is proportional to the square of the speed. So if you go 120 instead of 100 drag is 44% more. If you go 140 then drag is almost double at 96% more. The Mokka is a brick with a small battery so not the best for long trips. Had similar experience in Czech. Pity loverly country.

    • @GreenSecret1

      @AJames-jr8kw Dankeschön für die Zahlen zum Vergleich.
      Quadrat und ² sind das gleiche 😉.
      Die Stirn Fläche eines SUV ist sehr groß und der Cw-Wert ist durch die hohe Position viel schlechter als bei Standard PKWs. Hier in Deutschland muss man die Aerodynamik mit Abtrieb planen da sonst die Autos bei 250 km/h fliegen würden. Der Abtrieb erhöht natürlich den Luftwiderstand 🤣 und drückt den PKW Richtung Straße.
      Habe vor langer Zeit einen PPL-C gemacht, da musste man das alles lernen. Beim Segelfliegen merkt man den Luftwiderstand extrem und nutzt ihn zu seinem Vorteil.

    It seemed you were disillusioned with the electric car whilst on your trip and this video isn't really making it sound like you would choose to repeat the experience. Although you mention the railway as an alternative I don't know how feasible that would be through the whole of Europe? Here in UK public transport is banning EUCs, electric scooters, and electric bicycles as there is fear over the risk of an uncontrollable fire.

    13:01 Adam, you know that ev actually requires much more recourses to produce (cobalt mining, refineries etc), the electricity also is not 100% “eco” (coal, radiation, even wind station propellers can’t be recycled you know). So if we sum up everything - combustion cars are much more “eco” than ev. EV do no gases here at the moment, but has much worse affection on nature than “regular” cars. Even one question to ChatGPT nowadays waste a lot of water, so at this point of time it is not okay to be so strict in your opinion to things, everything is really complex
