Good high-speed efficiency considering one of the worst drag coefficient among its competitors. Drivetrain must be efficient and it should do better than most at lower speeds.

[@dennisbjergmadsen5163]

Rain and big wheels costs alot of range thats just a fact.

[@decimal1815]

Would be interesting to find out to what extent the battery pre-conditioning options on the Ariya make to charging speeds when doing longer trips.

[@clipsonplextorfield3230]

you aint sharing that spreadsheet or im i mising somthing? ps have ever tested the Megane 60? im asking bechose that seems realy efficiant and will be intrested in to it vs a cupra born 77kw

[@Angusoksen]

Hahaha I love the little commentary criticising yourself and the "obviously not Denmark hence the lack of bicycles" 😆

[@ruidias182]

The car hides 10% below zero. You have to see Bjorn nyland videos 🤣🤣🤣🤣 And the car shows charging power ....

[@buncho64]

Why on earth do I see most of the reviews of the Ariya using the 20 inch wheels instead of the default 19 inch wheels? It will be less efficient, harder ride and noisier. I personally have no idea why anyone would pay loads of extra cash for the bigger wheels in the first place. Very strange indeed!

[@KrisRifa]

Well most, if not all Ariyas at this point in time supplied to reviewers like my self comes from Nissan press fleet. So we do not choose the cars we get, Nissan chooses. So this is a question for them, not for us 😅

[@buncho64]

@@KrisRifa Thanks for the answer Kris. Yes, that’s what I thought. And I think that Nissan have dropped the ball on this. Yes, the car might look better with the bigger tyres but surely, they know the reviews will include driving the car. Strange decision by Nissan.

[@KrisRifa]

@@buncho64 Yeah, I think the cars with the smaller battery would benefit from smaller wheels. With for example 225/55-19s and aero covers on the wheels it could get maybe 20-30 kms more, which would be awesome!

[@buncho64]

@@KrisRifa, the actual tyres as delivered on my Ariya (UK model) are: 235/55R19 Bridgestone Alenza which are some of the quietest tyres around.

[@steffenjensen9350]

The bigger battery with +25kwh only gives 100 km real life extra range,,,,and adds nearly 200kg extra weight ! I prefer the more agile car, with better handling, over the extended range. Unfortunately the charging curve isn’t that good, especially on the small one.

[@fredrikh8070]

The charging curve on Ariya is said to be among the best on the EV market. What do you base your opinion on?

[@steffenjensen9350]

@@fredrikh8070 Says who ? Look at YT reviews, the curve drops constantly and rapidly especially on the 63 kwh version,,,,same for Renault E- Megane. It’s OK, -but definately not among the best !

[@fredrikh8070]

@@steffenjensen9350 Check the charging competition sessions from Bjorn Nyland. Ariya is the winner against most of the competitors.

[@zmatuzalem2009]

Kriss what would you choose? Tesla y rwd or Ariya 63kw.

[@zmatuzalem2009]

[@berthogendoorn2133]

always a great video, but always would welcome English text on the cars infotainment screen, I know that Bjorn does it.

[@Bay-Smidt]

#Ariya with #4ORCE 😎👌🏆

[@scottcameron8936]

Got to be honest don't understand the logic of draining the battery in a range test. Most folk would drive to 10 to 20% not to zero. That's a different test. Also just to note the time it took to do the distance wasn't on the spreadsheet that I could see

[@KrisRifa]

First of, I explain everything in the beginning of the video. Second of, I explain everything in the beginning of the video. I also explain why the battery got drained in the video, so I if you missed that you should watch the video again. And lastly, all your questions are answered in the video 🙈😉

[@tehnotom1307]

It's cheaper to buy Tesla Y Long Range than that,when you put all exstra gear,its better to buy Tesla or Polestar

[@KrisRifa]

A fully specced Ariya E-Force 87kWh version is a little more expensive than the Model Y LR, but offers a much nice cabin, quieter ride and superior comfort. I’ll cover this in my review later this week 😊

[@vincehutt7616]

Cup holder not phone holder DOH

[@ryansherman4556]

yea there is one under the counsel and one under the arm rest

[@vasileiospetropoulos2046]

I reckon they need to increase it to 83 or 90 kWh

[@fredrikh8070]

87 kWh net is available as alternative

[@Chrisb8s]

Honestly. If it’s cheap. It’s enough if it’s the same price as comparable suvs with longer range. No thanks. We have a model Y and a Mini Cooper SE and range is never an issue for either around town. Of course the mini cost 1/2 the price of the Tesla

[@Joe-ud2hb]

No V2L??

[@abraxastulammo9940]

Why would I buy this car instead of Ioniq 5?

[@thorsev6960]

Apart from aesthetic preference I can think of: Higher ride height, larger battery pack (B9), wider range of OTA updates possible, more premium interior, better sound insulation and sun roof that can be opened.

[@KrisRifa]

@@thorsev6960 agreed! The Ariya has many things going for it!

[@Cosmycal]

An also 22kW AC charging available as an option!

[@phileasler5401]

No full one pedal drive 🥲

[@KrisRifa]

Yeah I know, but it’s okay though once you get used to it!

[@Bay-Smidt]

Please dude, learn how to use #ePedal 😉

[@SchrodingersPuss]

If you put your phone in the cup holder, it gets stuck ?? Duh! Don't.
