@paulsandgren8625 Жыл бұрын
EV tech is improving at a pace unmatched by any other technology. It is really not that inconvenient once you learn the ins and outs of EV transportation. It is far less expensive to charge your EV at home. A 220v charger will charge any EV from 0 to 100% overnight. A 110v charger will be way longer than that. Charging at home is better for overall battery life. Supercharging to often cooks the battery and it will probable need replacing before 150000 miles. If seen EVs that only charge on home chargers with 300k miles and still going strong. Doing your homework is key to a good EV experience.

The reason why it’s not braking early enough while in cruise control is because it probably doesn’t actually have adaptive cruise control. The radar up front is there just for the pre collision system. That’s because it’s a base trim Audi. I have the same thing on my Audi a3. If Adaptive cruise control is included it will have settings to adjust the distance when it starts braking. Which is typically located on the cruise control nob by the steering wheel.

In 2015, I had a Leaf and never worried about the infrastructure because I always charged at home. The price is why it's NEVER worth it to charge publicly. It's less than gas, but still highly profitable for the charger company. This is why I believe charging stations, which take a smaller footprint than a gas station are going to be the new big investment. Soon, you'll see EV stations with convenience stores with no gas pumps. Most people don't have a charger when they get an EV. You're supposed to buy one. If you can afford a $100k car, you should be able to afford a charger. Plus, isn't NH one of the states with a charger rebate? Make sure your charging cable is plugged in to a 20A outlet, not a 15A.

Non-Tesla Ev charging between CT and NJ is horrible. There were only 4 high power fast chargers on my route and they are way off the turnpike and garden state parkway and most are hard to find. Also, the cost is way more than gasoline for an accord or civic. Cost me 38$ to charge 110 miles.

Lots of great info from this video and I appreciate detail that you put into it. Wa One of the big takeaways that I get Is that, by in large, The infrastructure to support EVs on large scale is just not there yet. You mentioned Tesla opening up their charging stations to other cars but it also being very expensive. At what point do all of the manufacturers get together and create universal stations that are inexpensive to all no matter what type of EV they drive? You made mention of only three stations in the entire state of New Hampshire. That kind of sucks, especially if you find yourself in a low power situation out in the boonies somewhere. It's great that you now have the ability to charge it a Tesla station, but it what cost? I really think the Audi e-tron is a super cool car as are the Porsche and the Tesla but they're also way past the price point of the average consumer. The reason I mentioned that is because as people get into the EV scene they really need to do their homework in regard to charging stations if they don't have a Tesla. I really enjoyed this video. Thanks again for the great content
