[@recklessrogue9027]

It was brilliant to see the original three back together! I'm impressed by the range of such a high mileage Model S and its aged really well - also there is no way it cost £250 to go there and back I've done Cornwall to London and back for £90 in an EV (also had you plugged in while going for toilet and coffee there would have been more than enough). But still really enjoyed the episode and look forward to more!

[@MyRegardsToTheDodo]

It's not that old, it's a 2017 model. We also don't know how many new batteries and engines it had. Alex said in his previous video about this car that it's still under warranty, which means he can get a new battery or engine if these fail. The previous owner might have done that more than once. Prices for electricity have skyrocketed recently, like in the last year or two. So depending when you did your journey in an EV, this might be the reason for the price difference.

[@insanityideas]

There were loads of ways they could have done the trip without hassle (just do what the satnav tells you to regarding charging), but that would have been a boring video. Instavolt is also one of the most expensive charging networks, filling that Tesla fully twice would have cost £148 to do approx 250 miles. Had they used Tesla chargers it would be £70, charging at home before setting off would have got it down to £7 to fill up. I cant see a diesel car doing 600 miles for £25, but to be clear they quoted that £25 as the cost of driving half way, which sounds fair, and is marginally cheaper than that Tesla, a newer smaller model 3 would use 2/3rds of the amount of electricity the model S uses.

[@lordfakeclothes]

@@insanityideas Spot on. Teskla superchargers are still somewhat reasonably priced - they could have also taken out an Elli sub to charge on 3rd party networks for about 60p a kwh vs the 8--90p instavolt/osprey charge

[@craigmck7271]

@@insanityideas I don't believe it would have been £250. The car would easily do 3m/kwh, so 600 miles = ~200kwh. Even at Instavolts ridiculous charge of £0.85 that is £170. £250 is the best part of 300kwh, so he's suggesting the car only got 2m/kwh, it's not an Audi :)

[@thaifighter6633]

@@MyRegardsToTheDodo’engines’ 😂😂😂😂

[@MeAMuse]

Why is electric charging soo expensive in the UK? Obviously most people would charge at home, but when the Mrs charges her car at a tesla super charger from about 10% to about 80% it takes about 20-25 mins and costs about $35 (that is that is somewhere around 200 miles). And that is in California (where things are more expensive). Crazy! Love the boys being back together! Congrats Lads!

[@dragosmihai3489]

Scrolled down to see if anyone EV minded has looked at this video. Yes I like the 3 are back, wohoo! And I am somewhat pleasantly surprised by the first 20ish minutes. And then, a statement that it costs 80 quid to do in electric what you can do in 30 quid diesel. How? That pack has say 75kWh, and has been fully discharged. Supercharger price is around 0.5£/kWh, so 40£. If Alex had charged at home, would have been 10£, which you can not do in diesel, for a total roundtrip cost of around 50 quid. Diesel 60 quid. No story, nothing to talk about. How did we get to nearly 200 quid to go back home? I can't imagine how to spend 200£ on electricity on a 500mile trip, even with bad weather, AC, speed +VAT, we're talking of 400kWh worth of money, 1500-2000 miles, more if you hypermile. /rant over, glad to see Ethan, Jack and Alex back

[@aragorn084]

@@dragosmihai3489 looked like they started at an Osprey charger, which is potentially 80p/kWh, but the numbers still don't add up. I think he's added up both charges, which is essentially double counting the cost. You either start full and count what it takes to get back to full, or you start empty, fill and run it empty. Realistically if they managed 4mi/kWh, the 268miles they drove will have used 67kwh at a cost of say £46. So a bit more than the diesel, but most EV owners would have started with a full charge from cheap home electricity and the outward trip would have costed a fiver.

SO hyped to see and hear Jack and Ethan again, lets pray for more content with all the lads again!

[@AHVENAN]

One little trick that I learned when driving Teslas for work, when you're approaching a relatively long/steep downhill section, get the car up to your desired speed, and when you start going downhill, shift it into neutral and just coast down the hill, that way the car uses literally zero energy for propulsion and since it is a relatively heavy car, gravity helps it keep the speed up. It is a bit tricky to smoothly shift back into drive once you start dropping below your desired speed but with some practice it becomes second nature

[@JoeHardman]

Why not set cruise control to the desired speed and let the battery regen downhill? Then you're putting energy back into the battery rather than wearing your brakes. I've gained back >1% battery in certain instances doing this. Obviously it depends on the elevation change and speed.

Refreshing to leave Taylor and Rory behind

JAAAAAAAACK!!!!!!!!

[@mohawkmonkey0216]

There is too much going on. All the gear, now this 15 minutes later. TDC video in 15 minutes?

Maybe get a life and stop sitting infront of your pc 24 7 watching others live life while you sit at home like a loser ?

[@jamesmccartermail]

Superb to see you guys together again! The magic’s still there! 👌 More please!

[@ciekawimotoryzacji8954]

As much as i love the old trio, i have to say that with Taylor and Rory there are a lot more laughs. 😄 Glad to see Jack and Ethan doing their own thing, but within the Alex family. Keep up the good work 💪

[@bigcheese6417]

Lovely to have them on the channel again. I really enjoy all the collaborations with other car KZbinrs, always great content and keeps it fresh.

[@juliush313]

Honestly, love to see you guys together again. Gotta say though. Living with an ev in germany seems to be a lot easier than in the uk. I watch a lot of carwow as well, and whenever Mat shows the charging stations I believe it can get really frustrating... Cheers 🤙🏼

[@jamesbuchanan8633]

I'm so excited to see Jack / Ethan / Alex / Edwin etc doing collaborations together. We are entering a new era of awesome / awful car content!

[@WatchGeek]

Fun fact!! I once watches a show where they compared tire pressure with fuel consumption, and they were actually surprised that the BEST mileage and lowest rolling resistance was on a slightly lower pressure 😮

[@edwardfletcher7790]

That's totally negated by the HUNDREDS of people in the Hypermiling forum...

[@eddiebrown5804]

So great to see these three back together on camera! More of this please guys!

Oh love to see the original squad back together again. hoping for more whacky road trip videos in the future!

[@zacharyKewDenniss]

Seeing the team back together? I must admit, that brought a smile to my face. LET'S GO GUYS

[@danmason5241]

I was literally thinking 'what are Jack and ethan doing' after the recent Car Throttle videos (which lack any chemistry/personality) and BOOM . HERE THEY ARE. glad Jack and ethan are back!!!

[@matthewcallaghan3941]

I’ve literally just subscribed to ATG! 🎉 After seeing the horrendous upturn in Jacks jeans, I am seriously regretting that decision 😂😂😂

[@S4MM7ify]

This challenge is the equivalent of taking an ageing high mileage petrol car on a journey it obviously can’t reach with the fuel it currently onboard, to a place with very few petrol stations and of those, some have a different style of pump 😂 In the real world, that place they stopped for a coffee would have been a great time to plug it in. Most accept contactless payments too. Great video though, nice to see the team back together 😁

[@darksidex93gaming6]

Its so good to see jack and ethan again! i hope they dont become strangers to the channel

[@EliJayFly]

So good to see everyone back together again, feels like coming home watching this

[@alexandertodd4347]

Great to see the three of you back together again. Best vid in ages

[@Crazy_Borg]

"It's 7 PM...and I am in Cornwall..." Well, you can see the pain in his eyes. 🤣 Glad to see you 3 back together in a video.

[@jecz83]

The band is back together !!! I shouldn’t have read the comments first, it spoilt the surprise 🎉😂 can’t wait to see more episodes with everyone plus TDC . One complaint though…… we need longer episodes 😅

[@RIDGIEDESIGNS]

I’ve marked the day in my calendar the day the band got back together. Hooray! 🎉
