Well, it's rather the "terrain", not the "low terrain", but you are saying with the very good voice :))

[@IceAce1]

That's top you phoned a warning regarding the trekking moose. That hand-free warning of the Nissan is really super. Very interesting car.

[@inclusivelove5165]

Wow your channel really grow fast! Congratulations. Thumbs up!

[@MilodeVries]

I miss a table comparing it to direct competitors. Perhaps it was in the 63kWh Ariya vid, but I haven't watched that. To me it makes sense to also do one here, just a comparison against eg Model Y, ID5 (the MEB car most similar in shape?), Mach-E

[@louisrodriques9323]

It’s all in his Google spreadsheet linked below the video.

This on is my short-listed right now. Hope it’ll hit Thai market soon.

[@nissanelectrified9583]

Pro Pilot won't cancel autosteer, on the contrary, it will keep steering until the car safely stopped and the parking brake is automatically enabled. Premium traffic and all other services will come free for three years if you purchase a leaf. Stupid though, that they don't activate it on press cars...

[@Blessedmantoday]

And if this can pare Leafs QUALITY I would chose this over MEBs

[@rajeshraj13]

Hi @bjørn, nice video. If possible, could you show the app connectivity and features for Ariya ?

[@lovethytuber4770]

Worthy challenger for the VAG cars. Nothing to spec except the color but thats probably how Nissan keeps costs low.

[@OggeVideo]

A good car in many ways and a good alternative to MEB-cars for sure. But I still prefer Škoda Enyaq iV 80 as Sportline. Both when it comes to design and how well it is built for swedish roads. I like how easily you hide and adjust the electric towbar on Enyaq too.

Wonder if you put on 18/19" tires instead. What would happen.

[@phileasler5401]

I believe it only comes with 19 inch std

[@Wasssup3232]

The 20 inch wheels are an approximate range loss of 25 miles on the EPA cycle. I’m sure for Bjorns testing it could come out 25+ additional miles of range

[@sargfowler9603]

Just shocked how few miles the Ariya will do at motorway speeds in summer - 144 miles. In winter this would be barely over 100 full range. The long range model is surely the one to buy?

[@samusaran7317]

Is a crossover necessary for you?

[@Cosmycal]

Depends on your speed, at 90kph my Ariya does near 500Km easily in summer.

He asked Nissan if he could bring the car to the artic circle later this year. so perhaps he will still test sleep

[@matthewwakeham2206]

I've seen mice, badgers, weasels but never moose in the road. (There are none here).

[@simonjohnborg]

Thanks for the very informative data you provide. I have a question for you if I may. There is a difference of around 4,000 Euros between the iD.5 GTX and Ariya 87kWh FWD, the Ariya being the most expensive. For AWD Ariya 87kWh, you need to add an additional 4,000 Euros to that. Now that you tested both iD.5 GTX and Nissan Ariya, considering my price difference, should you still go for the Ariya? Thanks.

[@thorsev6960]

I would compare specs, Ariya comes very well equipped as standard but the ID.5 not so much.

Have they borrowed the LCD-screens from Mercedes? Looks very similar.

[@timstruppi7897]

How much will it eat at 130 km/h like in most of Europe? What would be the smallest tires allowed?

[@bjornnyland]

Just look at the 120 km/h numbers and add a bit more.

[@timstruppi7897]

@@bjornnyland Do you have winter tire values ready? Those are often the smalles allowed rims. That could increase the range a bit. I have 2022 e+ and it can do the range of 63kWh Ariya at 120km/h but it can only charge 78kW and next time 50kW and then 30kW but I dont need challenges with family. I dont understand the point of new electric SUVs: high charging speed, high consumption. Less safe. Less space in cities. No benefits.

So EV running at 120kmph consumes 44.6% more energy than it does at 90. Not a good road-trip choice it seems.

[@bjornnyland]

Depends on drag coefficient. Some efficient EVs consume only 30 % more.

[@foreverwhisper]

@@bjornnyland 30% or so seems more in aligned with increased percentage of speed.

[@alanjenkins1508]

Drag is as velocity squared so at 120 km/hr drag is around 77% higher than at 90 km/hr. The fact that this much more energy is not used is presumably due to fixed energy consumption, such as heaters, which will be reduced if the journey duration is shorter.

Geez, that's expensive, got my Ariya Evolve 87kWh for 46200€

[@FreeMountainTom]

Disappointing to me that Nissan claims 87kWh capacity but you only get 80kWh. Especially in combination with the fact that the car stops displaying range below 5% and gives you a bad feeling on top of it with a warning "can't start". The first thing I worry about then is, what if I stop now, turn the car off and I am not at the charger? Can't I start the car again? At least the car claims so. Not very well done...

[@nissanelectrified9583]

You can easily drive this car down to 5 % or even 1%. You still get 50% power then. It's designed to get you home no matter what. It's one of the few (maybe the first?) car to actually best Björn in the 0 mile test. At close to 40Km below zero, he gave up. Reason for this car being that way is the weather in Japan. They have lot's of critical weather events, and super bad winters in the north. Every year, people die in their cars because they can't get home in the blizards. So if Nissan builds an EV, they build it so you will get home, or at least stay warm until help arrives. In the end, this car actually is better designed than most, since you can confidently use the range it has. No need to charge at 20%.

[@FreeMountainTom]

@@nissanelectrified9583 That's good to know. But nevertheless a car from 2022 should be able to display range below 5%. It should also display a clear warning. "Can't start" is not clear at all. If you don't know anything about the car and read "can't start" would you know what it means? Usually it means the car can't start...

[@duicui173]

@@FreeMountainTom They should be able to estimate range, or have said "can't estimate remaining range" instead. Maybe a future S/W update will fix this message.

[@nissanelectrified9583]

@@FreeMountainTom The decision to not display range has nothing to do with "can" or "can't". As in all other cars that do this. Which is about every car. The error message - yeah, with you on that one. But that's sort normal when driving japanese cars. I have yet to find one that didn't have at least one cute translation error. Part of the deal :)

great car but it has one big flaw, the entrance to the charger is on the passenger's side, you park the car in the garage and you can't get to the charger or you can't get out the driver's door. it should have been on the driver's side 🤷🏻‍♂️
