⁠@@junehanzawa5165 The intro said “the longest range and fastest charging EV’s” so it would be appropriate to include. In his review Kyle remarked on how good it would be as a roadtripping EV. A poor result would still be interesting and would provide valuable context on two different methodologies. High capacity with high charging speeds spread out over a huge number of cells for higher charging curves. Versus lower capacities with more moderate charging curves and higher efficiencies. The extra weight would come into play climbing mountains but would partially be offset by the down mountain regen. Weight is not so much a factor on level ground, which the middle of the country is mostly flat. The increased wind drag at higher speeds may be countered by higher charging speeds and less frequent stops skipping over inferior chargers. The Teslas can use the Tesla & EA chargers while everyone else is limited to EA. The Chevy would be able to use the Tesla chargers but wouldn’t be able to hit its full charging speed that it can on EA chargers due to the difference in voltages. So it would be an interesting choice for the drivers to make. A poor result can still be interesting. And a surprising performance that exceeds expectations is always fun content.

The Taycan was felt like it was BUILT for these kinds of races. Consistent 300 kw charging from low up to 80%, no throttling at all and seems to roadtrip like a Le Mans race. The struggles from both EA and even Superchargers now feel like the bottleneck for any EV moreso than the cars themselves. Poor Kyle in the i7 though, surprising how much better the similar priced EQS is doing in comparison even though it is lambasted for its egg like looks. The Ioniq 6 being the least expensive yet keeping pace with the rest of the group is also commendable.

This series is very good. There is so much to learn from how efficient the cars are to how fast they can take a charge. The earlier videos had me trying to figure out the range efficiencies and kwh/miles calculations and such but I think I am catching on. Jordan - doing a great job, someone mentioned a "place" tag after each car but I notice so many times, the drivers listing out where the cars are in relation to each other. Maybe at the end of those comments, a quick 2-3 seconds of the times they are behind the Acura. like this below Acura = Lead Taycan = +2H Model 3 = +3.25H Lucid = +4H etc.. Old Model S = Still in Idaho on their 35th charging stop That model 3 is the most impressive of the bunch. What a sweet bargain.

Get the interstates lined out, a charging station at every service station or rest area (so roughly every 30-50 miles), and then start working with towns to have just something. Whether it's at a Walmart, a car dealership, a hotel, doesn't really matter. Town of 1k people, just put one charger with two connections at 150kw, nothing special, just something.

With the bigger 84kWh battery the Ioniq 6 would be third, just behind the Porsche Taycan in second place and not all too far away from the gas car. Modern 800V + big batteries are a game changer. Would not buy a mid-size EV without 800V at this point, it is future-proof.

Lots of nav systems in this episode having serious issues calculating range, SOC on arrival. Need to add to the list of Never trust the BMS, and Never trust the NAV arrival SOC, ABC, Always be charging deeper than you think. If you have to limp on the road you are losing time you can't make up. Don't get trigger happy and leave a charger if you have a good charge session. Charge a little deeper than you think you need. An EQS observation. It actually showed the weather on the route in the nav, that is AWESOME. All of these nav systems should overlay the weather or provide an icon you can click on to see what is going on with the wind and weather on your route. If it is accurate I love it.

@Longsnowsm (there's gotta be a story about that name): Totally agree - I"m currently on my second R/T from San Francisco to Indiana in my Kia EV6 (visit my elderly Mom) and the car's estimated range and the limited CCS charging options on I-80 have trained me to ALWAYS charge to 90-95%. Along with hitting cold snowy weather in Wyoming! Fortunately, my car charges so quickly it's really just another couple minutes inside the generic Walmart/Target/grocery store that an EA is usually in front of. Better to have range buffer than limping on an isolated stretch of highway with lifted 4X4's roaring past you, laughing...
@Longsnowsm
@Longsnowsm Ай бұрын
@@brucemcdou As you have seen the Nav SOC estimates clearly don't know what the weather is doing either. I had one leg where my arrival SOC was supposed to be like 21% and I drove into really bad wind and rain. Well the good news is that the rain forced everyone to slow down, but it wasn't enough to offset the hit to range and my arrival SOC. So I ended up limping a little on that leg of the trip also. I think it is just a good idea to spend an extra 5 minutes and pad whatever the Nav system told you to leave with at the very least. Watching this installment of the Surge it is interesting to watch the teams trying to cut those stops short and it more times than not bites them.

@ab-tf5fl
@ab-tf5fl Ай бұрын
The lack of time to sleep or eat properly has everything to do with the fact that it's a race, and nothing to do with the cars being EVs. Remember, you don't *have* to unplug the minute you have enough energy to reach the next charger; if you're in the middle of eating, you can just finish the dinner, then unplug. You can even eat dinner at a place without a charger if you like their food better. It's a free country. Yes, driving like that won't win you the race, but a real road trip is about enjoying oneself, not winning the race - if the goal is simply to get from Seattle to Boston as fast as possible, fly on an airplane.

These races just goes to show that if you choose to make great time rather than enjoying the trip, you still can with an EV. Just don't expect time for a sit down dinner.

Not too much longer than a fuel stop, but also not getting the range of a fuel stop where you throw a whole tank in. The charge stops where they are going into the top of the battery are plenty long enough for a sit down meal. This is why the Acura is off the map. There is still a wide gap in the speed at which one can do a cannonball style road trip in an ICE car vs a BEV. Completely viable, not a nightmare, but also not yet on par.

State of the art EVs hampered my poor software and charging infrastructure. Loved the video. All the teams (except the Acura) did an excellent job during the I-90 surge. I am looking forward to the final stage. Plenty of tips about navigation, charging and ADAS.

I love these.This is such a huge project. It would be fascinating to see where some of these cars would be in the pack if they just charged to 80% every time instead of bailing out at 50% with a good charge going. Some of these charging curves make sense but others i'm not so sure.

With the bigger 84kWh battery it would be third, just behind the Porsche Taycan in second place and not all too far away from the gas car. Modern 800V + big batteries are a game changer.

@@paydboardman2285 Which is silly considering all the other cars stop for 10-30 minutes at a time. They could easily hit through a drive-thru on the way to the charger. Either way, they're worrying about time. If not racing then you'd have plenty of opportunities to stop for dinner while getting a deep charge somewhere. Also maybe a level 2 at a hotel.

I would just like to make a comment that in Billings Montana charger one and charger four for electrify America are power shared So had the lucid air move to either two or three then they probably would have pulled a whole lot more power because with the Taycan pull and the lucid, the power cabinet was pegged
