Very cold temps we are getting here in the northern part of Finland (70°N). Perfect weather for a extreme temperature test in the e-niro. Let's see if it starts and if it drives!
Fun fact, this is the most northern registered EV in Finland.

May I say, concerning the charge flap door, you should be pressing it exactly at the play button ▶️ symbol which is directly in line with the charge flap release spring. This is its strongest point and will prevent air line cracks. Also because you had been charging the main battery your 12v auxiliary has been receiving 14.7 volt charging all night, so no need for the backup to kick in. Keep the videos coming, really enjoy them. 👍

I have my e-Niro for almost 2 years, one of the first ones in the Netherlands. This weekend it will hit 100.000 km and with no issue at all. Last weekend we had -10 C, this weekend we will have +16 C. But during all seasons the e-Niro runs fine. Even in high Swiss winter mountains.

Nice Video! Thank you! Regarding battery heater, normally Kia e-niro should have from factory the following behavior: The BMS uses the temperature of lowest battery module in its logic to activate the battery heater. There are 3 conditions for the heater to activate: 1. The battery heater will come On if the SOC is less than 33% and battery temp is -5 degC or less. It goes off when battery reaches 5 degC. This seems to be for conditioning the battery for an eventual stop to a fast DC charger. The Winter Mode needs to be active for this to happen. 2. It will also be active when charging on 240v depending on battery temp as well. At -15 degC, it will engage around 82% soc. At 0 degC, it will engage around 91%. At 5 degC, activates around 93%. The Winter mode doesn't need to be active for this. 3. The battery will be active on fast charger as well. In most conditions, it will heat the battery up to to 15 degC depending of the starting % SOC. The battery will continue heating due to the heat lost during charging. Considering this behavior, maybe it's a good idea to go to the dealer to check the battery heating system.

Never had flat battery with fossil car at - 30c. Battery just needs to be replaced every 3 to 5 years and you need to drive the car more then 15km a day so it gets recharged. Lots of flat 12v on evs when you look at KZbin videos though even on warmer weather. =) 12v problems is also gone if you get maintenance charger that also heats the engine block =)

24:10 he has some misconception about how the 12-volt auxiliary battery is charge in a EV. On ICE cars, the battery only when driving. While EV does it different. Some cars charge it all the time, some then driving and plugged inn, and som only when driving. I do not know what Kia does.
@FinlandTony
@FinlandTony 3 жыл бұрын
No misconception. The auxiliary battery is automatically charged when the vehicle is in the ready mode or the high voltage battery is being charged. Neither of which was occurring when I came out to the car. In addition, extreme cold depletes batteries, so one can still have a flat battery in -35°C even if it was fully charged the day before. In EV's, you generally need to be driving (or the car is on run mode and sitting in your driveway) or charging to put charge into the 12v battery. If the car is left standing for any amount of time, the 12v battery can get depleted. Kia does have a mode where it top up the 12v battery occasionally, but it isn't perfect. My 12v battery has gone flat when I have left things on in the car in neither charging nor run state.

@@FinlandTony As far as I know, Tesla is the only car that charges the auxiliary battery all the time. My car does it only when charging and driving. EV uses constant 12 V power for the BMS and the telecommunications is an additional draw on the battery. But parasitic load is also a problem for newer ICE cars, even without BMS, the remote unlock ++ use power. That's why the Defa packages normally comes with a battery charger. And yes, I do know how it is to drive in -40°C...

It's a very warm car and the heater is great. The heat pump is not terribly efficient in really cold temps like -20°C and colder, so it will have to use a lot of energy (probably still better than none heatpump cars though). But for sure, it'll keep you warm down to -40°C (as cold as I've tested it). I'm very impressed with it's heat output, it matches (or is marginally better) than the Jaguar I-Pace I had before it for heat. The heated seat and heated steering wheel are very warm too.

If the Pajero is a Finnish spec Pajero ( with two batteries, good glow plugs, etc. from factory ), it will start fine in -35C. But you want to keep it plugged in to avoid wear on the engine. Same as in EV's, you want to keep it plugged in cold. Fossil cars that are well engineered work well in cold and most importantly don't loose range. Current EV batteries don't like cold. For example VW had a policy in Sweden that warranty is void if the car is parked below -30C for multiple nights without plugging in. Luckily they had to remove that statement.

Love the channel keep up the amazing content. Regarding the gas cars 12v battery’s regularly being dead at -35 and below I’m guessing most of those batteries are 5 years old or older??? Was always a common sight in Canada to see some one getting a jump start in the morning on a cold day. As more people started driving newer vehicles and replacing there batteries the first time they wouldn’t crank over quickly you almost never see it any more. Add to that most all vehicles in Canada come with a factory block heater and in the colder parts of Canada most every one plugs in at night. The useful life of a battery in northern climates is around 5 years. After that there on borrowed time. Not many people have battery warmers, I put one on my first new car in 2000. Every other vehicle I just used the block heater. Synthetic oil also made a big difference in starting a vehicle when you forget to plug in. Love your channel 👍

+12°C today here in the mustard city, can't complain (actually, I don't like these mildly fresh temps, either a real good sub zero cold, or a real +20 to 25°... it's these "in between" weathers that kill me) Anyhow, get your motor checked, -35 or 20, it shouldn't be making that noise... My e-Soul 64 never made a single noise like that since day 1 (which started at the dealership by -15° from Troyes in northern france and ended 20 coffees and 1300km later in Toulouse by +10° ;-) )

Very interesting! Definitely a reynauds nightmare😮. I wouldn't be able to cope in those temperatures, brrrr 😱 I was expecting your parking brake to have frozen up tbh! I've never seen studded tyres before, I expected the studs to be as big as on football boots! The app on your phone looks interesting. What app is it and is it easy to set-up? Totally loving your videos, refreshingly different than others on youtube. really enjoyable and educational, not just about the car but also the lifestyle and experiences in such a cold environment, fascinating. That noise is wiered, reminds me of the al capone TV series I watched as a child 😁 Yes, do a video on the ice road👍
Electric cars in winter... Any good?
