Quite fancy a 500e, with a few deals locally for pre-reg Icons at below £18k. I could wait for the next wave of city-size electric cars, but I like three door cars and the new Mini is awfully expensive.

Looking at a leaf with 9 bars less than 50,000 miles on it. The 1st owner was the one who put those miles on it. The second owner did not drive the car at all for 3 years. Is this car safe?
@MrEV
@MrEV 4 күн бұрын
The car’s perfectly safe, but the battery has clearly degradated. I’ll be making a video about it soon as a neighbour got a Leaf with about 9 bars too and although it can be repaired, it’s not cheap. Personally, unless it’s an absolute bargain, I’d go for another Leaf. Also, bear in mind that 30kWh Leafs have notoriously bad batteries.

Then at the end the installer opened the box and showed what was inside and compared it to another brand. The contrast was staggering. I'll go try and find it again.

I 100% fill my tank to full on my car. I will use a charger however I need to use a charger, if someone knocks my window, i'll respond with "as long as I need to". You're free to look at the charger, you're free to guess how long I'm charging, you're free to do all of those things, otherwise consider that you are a car on a garage forecourt and there is a queue.

@lmaoroflcopter 7 күн бұрын
I think the issue is a feeling of "but it's unfair". If there is a need for that person to be charging to 100%, then so be it. If the charger is occupied and you have no other option, you have no other option. If the charger is occupied and you do have other options and don't want to wait then drive on. All you need to know is that someone is using that charger. Flaviana isnt making sense except from a selfish perspective. "If its a woman at night, dont disturb her" "But if there is someone charging to more than 80% then you should be able to ask" So should we knock on the woman's window at night? Or not? Or is it "If I'm charging, then let me charge". If they are charging to 100% then assume they are charging to 100% for a reason. Rather than out of ignorance. Chill your own sense of entitlement.

The lack of coordination of the software on Hyundai EVs is why Teslas are just so much better. Tesla's GPS is better than Google Maps, and it embarrasses Car Play. Tesla's GPS is based on Google Maps software, but Tesla overlays its UI on it and greatly improves it. I also doubt that this is a real Range Rover competitor. I am not a fan of Range Rovers because they have terrible reliability records - among the worst of any car. However, they are truly off-road capable. This EV probably is not even in the same class as the Range Rover when you go off-road. Range Rovers will legitimately keep up with Jeeps, which are the gold standard of off-road vehicles (stock vehicles). For a coordinated, efficient, reliable, and comfortable driving experience, there is really no car like Tesla's cars. In many ways, they are state-of-the-art, and that is why the Model Y is the best-selling car in the world. In America, the Model Y is outselling the Ford F150 pickup truck, which is just mind-boggling because it has been the most popular pickup truck for something like two decades and is Ford's best-selling vehicle. Right now, Teslas are just better than every other competing car or truck, gas or electric. That is why Tesla is now worth more than all of the big three automakers combined. Tesla is destroying the mediocre vehicles that Ford, GM, and Chrysler, and it is breathing down Toyota's back. I think that Tesla's real competitor is Rivian.

About 9 minutes in, the screen has a massive title saying "Goodbye, VW Press & ..." - to put a message title that does not fit on the screen seems pretty lame - can you view the full titles? A minor point, but just annoying to me. Not a fan of touch sensitive buttons either - hopefully the fad will die out for normal buttons in the future.

Definitely more complicated, although things have improved an enormous amount since I did the trip. New Hyundai software is far better with route planning (so I'd not need to use any planning software) and there are more hubs all over Europe - France especially. The best cars for navigation are Teslas, and the ones that use Google OS: Polestar/Volvo/Renault. Road tripping in any of those EVs is so easy.

Wonder if car manufacturers could add a backup battery on the car that is kept charged and could be used in emergencies if the main battery ever ran out. Rather than you having to lug that big thing around in the boot. Btw thanks for the uk power networks text tip, have signed up for text messages , although think we’ve had one power cut in 10years.

Mrs EV asked for a place that meets the criteria of sea, mountains, greenery, pine forests, great scenery, no venomous creatures, virtually no mosquitoes or other flying nasties, low humidity, 21 to 24C in winter, less than 30C in summer, safer and cheaper than mainland Europe, plenty of interesting towns, villages and cities. TENERIFE or GRAN CANARIA- the smaller and more quiet islands of La Palma and La Gomera are also beautiful. The ocean has tides but not large variances.

Just discovered your channel as i'm looking to get our first electric car. Really helpful and nice to see the point of view of another family, think you've helped convince us to go the electric route. My wife has family in Cortina, Italy but think Cornwall or maybe Scotland will be the furthest we will go, its more for local area and short day trips around Kent/E.Sussex. Just trying to decide which car to go for. Tried Teslas and am not convinced. Have a 2020 Mercedes now and I like all the interior details, found Teslas too minimalist. Thinking either Volvo EX30, Mercedes EQA or BMW ix1. Tough decision. Any suggestions? thanks Andrew.

This is an old video, but this happened to me and my bf once. While we were getting ready to go because we just finished charging, someone came up to my window while I was in the passenger seat and asked if we were about to move. One, duh, of course we were. Two, my bf was not amused, and he has some hypervigilance from his time serving as a Marine. He's not someone you want to sneak up on! This was in the US so we have a smaller charging network for the land area, but people need to remember basic people skills. You just have to be more patient when you use public chargers.
