James May reacts to your comments about his Tesla Model S!

When James May bought a new Tesla Model S, the internet had some good things, but mostly lots of bad things to say about his new vehicle choice. While on his lunch break from filming, he decided to take a look at the comments section of his Tesla reveal video to see what the audience had come up with.

[@richard-thevoiceofreasonpr5086]

A simple maths challenge for James - 2 key components - 1. Acceptable charge speed for EVs as this class of vehicle dominates total registered vehicles 2.The Disappearance of Gas powered Power Stations from the Grid Network. The ONLY Power Generating system that can respond to sudden power surges are Gas fired. Smart networks are unable to cater for the hard to forecast sudden demands on the Grid that are likely to cause frequent blackouts. Investment in sufficient Power generating stations to defend the essential grid balance when 10% of UKs EVs plug in to fast chargers (assumption 50% will demand 175 KWh charging & 50% will employ 350KWh chargers. UK has a total vehicle pop. of 32 million vehicles. NOW consider the Surge defence infrastructure to avoid Blackouts. The surge defence must prevent network failures and the requirements must be conservative - so we are only considering 10% of EVs will demand high speed charging. Total estimated maximum power surge demand - 787,500 MWh New Surge protection - Construction of 1,313 new 600MWh Power stattions Cost of Construction (not incl. operation costs) - $394 billion Annual amortised cost to be borne by EV owners using fast charge equipment - $39.38 billion to be shared among 3 million users. These costs would be halved if Gas fired generators were maintained. I prefer Gas - Natural Gas or Hydrogen.

[@thecarkid.]

James, why don't you review the cars of Clarkson and Hammond owned in the past, in separate videos? 🤔

[@ronnytm]

James May should definitely review his watch collection. I think he missed the point, however. The interesting part is the story behind each one - why he chose them.

[@kg4qxk]

I had also looked at a cross-country trip using Tesla's trip planner. While on the whole it seemed doable, there are places where charging is still an issue. For example, I had hoped to go northwest from Ogallala, Nebraska, following the old Oregon Trail, then across Wyoming on US-26 to Grand Teton and Yellowstone. When I put all that in, the driving time was almost double what it would be in a petrol car, not because of charging time, but because there are no chargers along that route other than in Casper, WY, but the distance from Casper to Grand Teton is too close to a full charge; rerouting to be able to charge is close to three times the distance. So the problem is not so much being able to make the trip, but at this point, taking a more scenic, less traveled route with less charging infrastructure. I did notice that Electrify America has a few stations planned along there, so that may help in the future, but even then it is a bit tenuous.

As if it's a bother to us AT ALL the he's enjoying his skittles. Even the Brits who move to America maintain that beautiful hospitality. I was building some cabinets and counters for this guy (with the same real name as mine) last week. He moved from Britain to Texas about 15 years ago, still has an amazing accent, and within 5 minutes of me arriving to start my work, I was offered multiple beverages and snacks, and then told I had free reign over the pantry and fridge while I worked, so long as any alcohol consumed wasn't hindering my work. And he tipped me. And every time we needed a conversation, he left me with a "cheers!". Best customer I've ever had. Anywho. Sorry for the tangent. I just Love that British hospitality.

@@BWolf00 Because you have to figure out the most efficient/best stops with the least amount of charging time, which usually all automated anyways. Where the planning comes, is actually selecting the actual chargers. With petrol stations, you really don't have much choice. With EV, you can pick to stop at a shopping centre or a McDonald's. So, depends on where you want to be.

[@britishmalayasociety]

@@BWolf00 Just a little side note, the US has some of the best EV charging infrastructure in the world, considering its size. Here in New Zealand, Tesla only recently deployed their fast chargers at the capital recently. Considering all chargers here, they're far more spaced out and less common than the US.

@@britishmalayasociety Dude, did you go to sleep while writing this "...With petrol stations, you really don't have much choice. With EV, you can pick to stop at a shopping centre or a McDonald's. So, depends on where you want to be." Really, so you can't plan where to stop with a petrol vehicle???🥲 Also, "...the US has some of the best EV charging infrastructure in the world, considering its size." Maybe that holds true for the east coast, but in the mid-west and generally removed from the coast...there's still isolated ICE generator charging stations (at least there was 5 yrs ago). My point is in the US you DO still have to plan out your trips...it's the petrol vehicles that this isn't absolutely necessary. BTW, just love the idea of grid independent diesel generators being used to charge the environmental carbon free EV's.

[@britishmalayasociety]

@@BWolf00 You don't often find a petrol station attached to a shopping centre, or even a decent cafe, unless you're filling up at BP, are you? Furthermore, not everyone is lucky enough to fill for what, $4 or $5 USD a gallon. It's almost $8 USD a gallon here. Cost to charge, often $0. Which is why you plan. You could not plan, and just, find whatever EV charging station you want. But because EV charging stations don't require much infrastructure, what if you want food? Or to use the bathroom? Or not pay for charging? Sometimes you have to plan. Do you want to know how many chargers Tesla put in our capital city in 2019-2020? 6 chargers. The next nearest ones are 142 km or 88 mi away. This is more than sufficient for us. If you look at the Plugshare map over the US, it's plastered with chargers of all varieties everywhere. Even in rural areas and national parks. You would have to quite literally be in the US's most rural town, Glasgow, Montana, to not have access to public charging. But even then, they have electricity so they can charge at home. Even then, Australia has far more space between charging points. There are some major cities there that aren't connected yet. Despite this, EV sales are a huge there.

@@Bratfalken genuinely can see bigger brands implementing software packages that can transform the driving experience to a certain car. I know Toyota is developing (or at least patented) a fake manual that takes into account power/torque curves of an old IC engine, and even simulates shifting. As an engineer, I can see a future Mercedes EQ offering the engine response of a 2016 S Class for a small fee. Would make driving more interesting, and MB can continue to dig deeper into pockets bc EV's have less serviceable components

You can't get that on most new ICE vehicles anyway. You're shackled by rev limiters, fuel particulate filters and V8s are getting uncommon to begin with. I'd rather have the silence of an EV rather than the whiny racket of a 4 cylinder turbo.

Masako X appearing on a James May video is the crossover I never knew I wanted.
