#76 Road trip to Stavanger in Audi e-tron GT

[@j.b.5230]

Bjorn - the buttons and controls for aircon are great. These are the kinds of things you want to change while driving and not having to take your eye off the road

[@bjornnyland]

You still have to take your eyes off the road to see which button to press...

[@wewillrockyou1986]

@@bjornnyland I find it's easier to use physical buttons when you are used to where they are, you can find which button you are on by feel which you can't really do on a screen.

Love the AudiBjorn Nyland at the end ! :)

[@absurdalny]

20:36 It just annoys me how door handles on Model X are not lining up nicely. Maybe if they would use standard placement for rear door handles it wouldn't be visible that much, but here it just hurt my eyes.

[@erathol]

Crap car and quality

[@Minhson2008]

absolutly agree! The first I saw was the doorhandle, that sticks my eyes and tell me.... wut a shit quality! 😂

[@neitusp8546]

I'm so looking foward to the A6 e-tron, 100kwh battery, 270kw 800v charging, 700km wltp range, less sporty but more confortable than the e-tron GT, much more interior space and likely also an A6 e-tron Avant.

[@jatterhog]

Maybe Porsche will base the new electric Panamera on the A6 e-tron? 🧐

[@neitusp8546]

@@jatterhog That might well be as the PPE is developed by Audi and Porsche together just like with the J1 platform from the e-tron GT and Taycan.

Yes that's the new "business class" waiting for it too! Or the one from Mercedes / BMW

I'm always envious of how dense the network of Ionity chargers shows up in the maps - and I imagine it's even denser when considering chargers from other networks... Here I often need to squeeze the last percents out of the battery to reach a DC charger

Thanks again Bjørn! Love to see your growing passion for this car. Can’t wait for mine to arrive in a few weeks.

[@Ruby-td2wq]

how is it so far?

[@erathol]

Luvin it

[@ChuckJ1944]

But you can sleep in a Taycan- and it goes further! I use 290 watts/mile on the highway. And it shows you the percent you will have when you arrive at your destination. In fact, That's how I charge the car. Just put in your next waypoint and charge until it says you will arrive at the percent you want. I usually use 15%. :-) Of course, it doesn't display Porsche Taycan in lights under the open door.

Not sure why the physical climate controls are considered a bad thing?

[@bjornnyland]

Worse utilisation of space. Too rigid and can't be updated via software.

[@richardh3587]

@@bjornnyland hmm - I think functions like temp up/down, fan up/down and vent direction don’t really need to be software updatable - they will always be relevant and it’s really nice to be able to quickly activate by feel without taking your eyes off the road. I’m beginning to think that a return to physical controls will be the next trend in luxury vehicles. Not saying we need the button explosion of early 2010s Porsches, but touch screens for everything is also suboptimal. I am very impressed with the designer who pushed back against the corporate behemoth of VW group to include some physical climate controls! Kudos to whoever that was.

[@Luis-xr9ye]

Great video has always. Great job Bjorn 👍

[@JiriSyrovatko]

What a car, for me, I would like a Station Wagon version of this, even sacrificing a bit Cx and the look from behind ;). But space is space, the longer the better.

Another excellent video, it was very good that you could drive leisurely on this trip. I did view the Circke K and Tesla car inspection prior to seeing this one.

[@ottowillumnielsen9083]

The most beautiful car, really nice. Norway has fantastic charging network, Denmark sucks, only a few charging stations and always long queue

[@MrNorwegianUser]

Come to Gjøvik

[@aviovintage]

"me wants it" :D Curious if you are seriously considering this one over the Model S currently on order. Price point pretty close? Range not really. Charging, absolutely. The looks are just great, I love the Model S how it looks, sedans for the win, but this GT really looks the 100K it costs B) With Tesla we can expect a more active development/update cycle over time and the promise of FSD. Tough one!

[@bjornnyland]

I would still buy Model S refresh when time comes. Way more usable car, more space for the whole family, better range, better infotainment and tech, better charging network, faster acceleration... the list goes on.

[@aviovintage]

@@bjornnyland Thanks Bjørn! Good points about practicality. And the S still looks amazing.

[@NORWAYORNOWAY]

Hei Bjørn, just a bit of råd her: your sponsor splash screen should have more space between the logos (it has been bothering me...) -- adjusting this will keep your sponsors glad by respekting their logo with decent "exclusion zone" and each logo should feel like it stands alone from the other elements (or other logos). Cheers and keep up the great content! Mvh

276 Kw/h on my Tesla Model S 2023. Unfortunately, I can't share pictures, as it's not allowed on comments. Need the screenshot, Bjorn?

[@OggeVideo]

Are you going to test new Hyundai Kona Electric 64 kWh (2022) (facelift) soon? Interesting if it is more isolated from noise.

[@jatterhog]

For me, I think the difference between EVs and ICE regarding eating is that you can go to the city and eat at nicer restaurants with ICE cars but with EVs you’re kind of confined to the eateries by the chargers which usually are of lower quality.

[@bjornnyland]

Actually you don't have to. I could stop at any restaurant I want. Remember that this car charges almost as fast as you refuel and then go to the restroom. You have to stand there and wait while you refuel. When you charge, just plug in and it will charge for you. No need to wait.

[@gerritkramer9502]

You can drive to a city, park the car, plug it in at a regular charger, take a few hours to stroll around the city, have dinner, then go back to the car and have an even shorter stop at the next rapid charger. Everything cool.

[@jatterhog]

Gerrit Kramer that sounds like a lot of time wasted on a roadtrip doesn’t it :)

[@anemam]

Bjorn, if you accept suggestions for your channel, I would appreciate if you could release your videos with a better order. For example, I believe that could be better to watch this video first and then the one about Model X latter. Anyway, good job!

[@bjornnyland]

Thanks for your suggestion. But the order will be the one I already chose to release in. I don't see the point of releasing it the order you suggested. And for practical reasons, releasing it in the order I did was best. There are of course some rules I always follow, for example that I always release part 1 before part 2, etc.

How hard is he working? Does he ever stop driving? Then I thought well lots of new EV's need testing.. then I had a 2nd though.. Ahh he has a house to build.. do not burn out Bjorn. Trying to keep up with your output but I do not have that many spare time! ;)

[@bjornnyland]

Pro tip: You don't need to build the house yourself. Hire someone to do it Pro tip 2: Quit your office job and you will have more time available.

[@aviovintage]

@@bjornnyland True, it is a tradeoff. I am quite handy myself if I may say so and the temptation to upgrade/construct by myself is always there. But it is easy to forget the opportunity cost of doing stuff yourself while you have other ambitions as well.
