I drove MG Marvel R Performance until the battery died

[@danpaul4975]

Rumour has it, after the residents of that house saw Bjorn run out of juice in the same place in 42 different cars, they applied to have a random charge point fitted at the side of the road 😂

[@SweViver]

V2L automatically turns off after 10 minutes on Marvel if the car is not in Ready mode. To make it run for hours, you need to keep the car in Ready mode, ie not turned off. Btw thanks for all Marvel R content, great stuff!

[@anonjones5717]

Bjorn, please do a 0% test for a Polestar 2. Many of us are curious.

[@b127_1]

IMO, any car needs to have at least 2 or 3 km buffer after zero. Fudging the percentage scale so it appears that you have more range is not desirable and we shouldn't accept it.

[@b127_1]

@@bernhardleopold6702 A 300k km model S doesnt randomly die (except when stuff breaks...). Why does a 15k km MG?

[@vegterb]

The 2018 Nissan Leaf takes this to the extreme and leaves 10% of battery after the screen says 0% you can still drive pretty far. I use leafspy to check this and extend my drive. I often drive a while when the screen says: --% and --km. Only when there is actually 3% left it goes into turtle mode (max 40kph) to crawl to a charger.

[@oliverskinner8962]

@@vegterb we never trust the car to go into turtle mode after the new software update gave us some more range we just assumed the car had no buffer left and would just stop. Yes we do have leafspy and it goes to --- 0% at about 2kwh 9% leafspy stops reporting the % after 0.8kwh but we've never had turtle. Leafspy also says 23.8 kWh when fully charged 100% which I'm guessing is why we only get real world 80 miles out of our 30kwh leaf oh and the efficiency monitor on the leaf is 0.4 m/kWh out, well at least on our leaf it is. Not that it matters because in 8 weeks time we will have a 51kwh lifepo4 MG4 with 200+ mile range !

[@edmundtang27]

Great reviews love your tests and humour! Can you do a Genesis electrified GV70 review? range tests 0km and all that? Thanks!

[@dkostasx]

Typically most cars have power off after X minutes feature by default, so maybe this is also what happened when it stopped discharging. It may not be related to the car key being present close or in the car. It is probably just enough to have the car turned off for this to happen. For example the Outlander PHEV also has a similar feature where one can use V2L functionality, but for it to work the car has to be in Ready mode which is the mode where the car is basically ready to drive, e.g. not some accessory mode where only 12v battery powers the car electronics. You could search for some options in the car which may allow to define the time interval after which the car will power itself off.

[@eb1888.]

The most important metric isn't included on your chart or mentioned in the video. How many kilometers/miles will it go before it stops. When it shows 3 dashes until it stops. How far is that? 7% and 3 dashes to stop is 15441 to 15563. 22k/13.6 miles. From the Pull Over warming at 15558 you have 5 k until it stops. I can give this information to a friend if I loan him the car.

[@FreeMountainTom]

Not displaying the range left at a low state of charge is a no go. In cases you get low for whatever reason you are usually stressed about it anyway. Not showing the range all of a sudden makes it even more stressful. You then need to calculate on your own whether you can make it or not. Of cause you can handle it with EV experience but you are completly left alone if you don't have that experience. Not good at all.

[@valuablewizard]

My mom's Nissan Rouge shows no range whenever the fuel mileage is below 30. She gets so darn paranoid whenever that happens.

[@cmalc8]

The 'battery power depleted, please pull over safely' at 2% isn't "kind of weird" at all. You don't want to completely run out of charge and stop in the middle of the road. It gives you plenty of opportunity to find somewhere safe to stop. This is logical. It also means you aren't forced to stop, blocking a side road.

[@dkostasx]

There is a new interesting car coming to the market (Germany at first) which is a PHEV, but it has a large battery with ~42 kWh and which can drive 150 km like EV even up to 200 km/h. It also has a fast DC charge capability using CCS2 charging port + a fast 11 kW AC on-board charger. I would really be interested to see a review of this car, because with such large EV only range it can compete with some EVs. It is called GWM WEY Coffee 01 PHEV.

[@dkostasx]

@not today Yes, and that is basically equivalent to any larger SUV EV which has a larger battery, but which can drive less range, but weights just as much

[@Michael-sq8xr]

@@dkostasx except the PHEV has soooo much more shit that can break.

[@dkostasx]

@@Michael-sq8xr That is theoretically correct, but practically it usually does not break as much as a normal ICE car, because most of driving is done in EV mode. I own Outlander PHEV and it is the most reliable car I have ever had and so say most of the other owners of Outlander PHEVs. The biggest problem is rapidly degrading battery, but that is partly because of the battery pack being so small. If the battery gets like 4x bigger, this problem practically goes away on itself.

[@Michael-sq8xr]

@@dkostasx i dont care much for personal anecdotes. I owned a kuga PHEV, shit never worked. But its irrelevant. Objective facts please. And those facts states its more expensive. the end.

[@dkostasx]

@@Michael-sq8xr I do not care what you think, because I know the facts pretty well. You did not like to own your PHEV and that is your personal problem. I have seen a lot of people who do not put enough effort to learn how to properly use the car and then blame the car itself that it has bad design etc. I do not mean that this applies to you, but usually the anecdotes are told from such short term vehicle owners who do not know much how technology works . Your facts do not hold any more at least where I live. From this September in Denmark the electricity become more expensive than driving on petrol even when charging at home, so it just become more expensive to own an EV. As an owner of a PHEV with a typical 80% driving only in EV mode I have now switched to driving only on petrol, because it is no longer economical to drive on electricity.

Where can I buy the “portable chargers” you had in the back? What are they called? If you compare the enyaq id4 polestar and the marvel which is the largest inside the cabin? Today we own the ioniq electric and want a bit more space inside the care and more comfort. Of course the price is important too.
