[@hansigutten]

One small and maybe stupid question came to me when you mentioned the “even charging curve” on the BMW… Does the setting of the maximum charging limit, in your case to 100%, impact the BMS in terms of calculating the charging curve? e.g slower charging above 80% to preserve battery life. What if you preset to stop charging at 70%, would the BMS calculate a different charging curve? I’m just hairsplitting about this, but it’s kind of fun when I know you’re so good at digging into these small things 😃 maybe you will find time to bust my myth some time 😉

[@you2be839]

Bjorn, can you put the routes you normally use for the range, 500km, and 1000km tests on Google Maps, so that people can download the .KML and then use it to try to find similar roads nearby them with similar elevation profiles?...

[@latlak]

Thanks for the test! I had the chance to drive one for a few days and what surprised me the most was the performance especially in corners. This thing does really not lean at all and has so much traction. It's really very fun to drive, but yeah, not the most efficient one. And it lost a lot of good features of the old G30 5 series. I'm still in love with this one, though.

Thanks for another excellent video. It is quite informative about the i5, while having all the usual Björn Nyland entertainment value. Watching these videos makes me really want to go on long overnight drives with minimal traffic while eating delicious bad food. Keep up the good work.

[@tobiasbruggendick4230]

About the loading flap, 😁we have wind in Germany, sometimes too much😁. Seems to me as a lazy design decision or nobody has tested it. If the engineers are sitting in munich they should have enough possibilities to test this 😁

BMW has a good solution in the i4 with lids blocking the loading flap. So, engineers at BMW know how to design such stuff, but others decide to save a penny. This is quite a disappointing direction BMW is going.

I did get the i5 since it was financially interesting.

[@Beamer_i4_M50]

I "only" have an i4 M50, but so basically the same drive train. This car is just fantastic. I personally think that BMW builds the best BEVs, they are right on top. I've driven a lot of different BEVs, but BMW combines great economy, great range, nice driving feeling, good cornering and a nice infotainment with great design. I average 20 kWh / 100 km in winter (I don't drive Autobahn), so I have easily a range of 350 km. From factory (22.000km) it shows 18.9 kWh / 100 km. But I've never seen 28+ kWh / 100 km, even on Autobahn to the Alps in cold weather. Seems the i5 does something different. Edit: I have the "pleasure" to drive Teslas at work, next to Skoda Enyaq, ID.4/5 etc. The Teslas are by far the worst cars all around. I still don't get the hype.

[@C22RLD]

18.9 kWh / 100 km. This has made me happy as i wait for my I4 M50 Delivery, is this on 19" wheels?

Only 15 min faster than the iX1, ok 2°C lower temp - but still? BMW proved already that their drivetrain is very efficient with the i4 and the i7, so why not the latest launch i5?

[@declanosullivan8749]

Over an hour slower because its 5c instead of 17c needs to be sorted. Not a good result for what is a 100k euro car. How much slower would it have been if it was -25c?. Its already 2 hours slower than the ICE Nissan X Trail in 5c vs 2c, 10:35 vs 08:35. I'm guessing 3 hours slower minimum if it was -25c over the ICE, the Model 3 LR lost 1.5 hours in that cold vs 5c weather against Model 3 performance

[@eirik500]

Because in those temps you need to heat a few cubic meters of volume 20 C. And the battery. Then there is a windchill effect, and the temp need to be maintained. A fuel car will just scavenge heat from the 70% waste heat.

Test should be done in D with adaptive recuperation. Driving in B will lower range a bit, especially with a nervous foot oscillating between charging and discharging.

[@bjornnyland]

Nope

[@sefrasus7360]

​@@bjornnyland And why not? Did you compare it? BMW's motors, unlike Tesla's, have stepless regulation of recuperation. You're missing the coasting motor mode and the sensor supported regulated recuperation if you don't use D Adaptive.

[@doggnamedchip]

@@sefrasus7360 He tested it yeah. Also, with cruise control there is no nervous foot oscillation.

[@sefrasus7360]

@@doggnamedchip Can you point me to the test then? I'm driving an i4 M50 and from my experience, B is not the optimal mode for BMW EVs. The adaptive D mode applies just as much regen as required (remember it has only 70% efficiency), otherwise the car coasts, similar to one with a manual gearbox with the clutch pedal pressed. It might not have a large impact on highways though, because speed is relatively constant there. And the car is a bit oversensitive in regards to distance to the vehicle in front.

[@doggnamedchip]

@@sefrasus7360 That was the exact finding - for range tests it made no difference, probably because of the constant speed. The 1000km/range tests are at constant speeds, not in the city with a lot of acceleration/deceleration.

Is the 1000km Challenge still relevant when we know range and recharging speeds so we can extrapolate out what a road trip would be?

[@leiflillandt1488]

I think you have a point here, and does it matter where the car is between 10h10m and 10h35m? But it's interesting to see the development over the years. I think we will see a 25,000 euro car is as fast as a 70-80,000 euro car in a few years. Not as comfortable a ride, but as fast.

[@you2be839]

Aren't the range tests extrapolations already? Can't remember, but had the impression they are, and if so, extrapolation over extrapolation is over extrapolating a bit too much! And besides, I don't exactly trust EVs when it comes to extrapolating because there's no linearity on the battery level due to how different bms interpret the level of battery charge, so nothing like doing the real thing imho.

[@doggnamedchip]

1000km challenge shows the various overheating, coldgate, throttling etc issues that can happen.

I once had a VW Passat as a replacement car for 4 weeks. Terrible. 🙁 Didn't VW cheat on diesel car? 💥💨😷

This means your average speed was 130kph. Unless you're some kind of weird ass person that can drive constantly for 130kph, it means you broke the laws on 99.999999% of the places on the planet. No eating, no resting no nothing, just driving constantly with 130kph Plus, Is there any 1000km highway anywhere?! Where did you start and where did you go that you needed to be there so fast? It would be much better to get a plane or a train (depending on the location.) if you have urgent arrival. Otherwise, normal people will stop and eat something and rest a little bit. PS: i own a car that i can drive for 1500-2000km in a full tank (60l gas and 55l lpg) if i need, just so you know and it's market price is 1700 euro, so i can do a lot more than your 17.000 passat and i have much better tech in it with a 10x less of a price.

Keep your diesel then ;) Btw: My BMW M2 only has a range of 120 km on the race track. Is it worse than your Passat? Maybe :P

Bjørn when did you stop doing the 3x späkkeröd. You missed it twice in this video at 15 min roughly

[@bjornnyland]

[@PKSDK]

@@bjornnyland Nope, just pulling your leg. Great video, keep up the good work man
