Electric Pickup Truck Range Test! We Ran All Of Them To Dead

Question did you have regen braking on for any of the vehicles during this test?

[@theichione1827]

@OutofSpecReviews Most/many trailers would cancel out any aero advantage on the truck itself, so a large capacity battery is “smart range" for a truck… though having both is great.

[@andrewashmore8000]

Cool results ,Kyle . Its interesting that the Lightning Platinum has a range of 260 miles , yet the Lightning Lariat has a range of 282 miles , is that just to do with tyre size ?

Rivian is the one that best accepts the limitations of an EV and maximizes what they have. The right size, features, and software to make it the most compelling (but not most capable) offering IMO. Can't wait for R2, I just hope they don't lose their soul and spirit. Silverado is the only one even reasonably compelling to replace a gas half ton just based on battery and charging alone.

Not meeting projection isn't lying. Rivian told everyone they were going to start production of the r1t in 2020, they lied by a year I guess with their cookie cutter pickup haha. Rivian is also bleeding money from a main artery and losing tons... Like just objectively speaking, I can't see where you're coming from other than just being a fan.

[@Cuz789]

[@AnonymousFreakYT]

For me, the biggest benefit of these tests is seeing how the vehicles behave right when they're near the end. Some EVs are "you have full power until about a mile before it runs out of charge, below 0% indicated" others are "slowly degrade power to the point that you may be able to go a further 15 miles beyond when it says you're out, but only at 20 MPH." I'm definitely an "out of spec road trip" kind of person. Have put over 150,000 miles on five different EVs over the years, and have never been stranded on the side of the road. Have three times gotten to a charger and not been able to charge - once was my own fault for misreading the Plugshare entry. It wasn't live yet (older EV with no live updates to navigation map, so it didn't know about *ANY* EA stations.) Twice were EA bugaboos. Both times, I had another full-speed option within reach. (Although one was "arriving on static" turtle-mode.) I've definitely rolled in to a planned charge stop in turtle mode half a dozen times, though.

[@AHungryHunky]

Yeah, this is very useful information. I dont own an EV but would like to have one. Right now I can't, and that is okay. I get to watch ans learn how they function, and when I can actually buy one things will only have gotten better. I didn't even realize different makes wouls handle low charge different, but it makes sense this wouls happen unless some standard is implemented.

[@e2dub]

There appears to be a 20% range benefit due to thinner air in CO compared to if these same range tests were done near sea level. Interestingly the air density in Ft. Collins at the time of this test was about 20% less than that of the air density in Austin, at the time of that test. I calculated the atmospheric pressure Ft. Collins and Austin, and corrected for temperature. Amazingly the Cybertruck range test in Fort Collins was exact 20% better than the test done in Austin. 304 miles vs 254 miles. I do realize that the entire test wasn’t done in Fort Collins but I used the Fort Collins elevation since I don’t know what the average elevation of this test was. Air temperatures can be found at the Out of Spec Studios link in the video description. Despite the difference between a sea level test, I still think these tests are useful, because we can compare the differences between vehicles. To convert these results to sea level, subtract about 10-20% off of the results. Great job Out of Spec⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️

[@chadhelvey7827]

As a non EV owner what surprised me the most was at the very end of the film. He charged his Silverado to 25% and it cost him $19.50! I didn't know it was that expensive to charge. That seems pretty close to regular fuels costs.

[@lukekamp]

Yes - public charging is on par with what you pay at the pump. Charging at home can be 1-3x cheaper for most people, or even more if you produce your own electricity. Personally, I pay about 15¢/kwh at home, about 45¢ on public chargers. So 3x cheaper.

[@jorny32]

I pay 5 cents per kw at home... Massively cheaper than fuel. Like I am single digits dollars a month of budget vs over $100 for fuel when I had an SUV

[@vikingbase]

So saving $1000 a year, take 6-10 yrs to break even?

[@jysmtl]

As an EV owner, yes, I have been surprised at the cost of fast charging. So the aim is to charge at home as much as possible, where charging is substantially cheaper than buying gas. And most driving for most people most of the time, charging at home covers most of your driving. A little redundant there, sorry…

Dylan Loomis just did an excellent report on how the 4680 is ramping up in Texas. Meanwhile, Kato Road is closed down to retool production lines for test production runs of the 3rd gen 4680. More range coming for the Cybertruck.

[@imjody]

1:38:25 - ⚠I freakin LOVE how seriously Tesla's Cybertruck takes it when the battery is on its very last leg. All that flashing to get you to take it seriously is so much safer than the way others did it. I wouldn't even be opposed to an audible warning saying to "Pull over safely as soon as possible", either. You can cause a serious accident at these highway speeds, then your battery dies, but there's no safe place to pull over. I safe place to pull over is very rarely a sure thing when driving. This was awesome; I really enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing the data and footage! If your max speed is 25, shouldn't have risked going up hill from there with no safe place to park. Should have pulled over and called it what it was. Where you stopped the Cybertruck definitely added some danger to the area, but it didn't seem like a busy offramp at least.

[@GeorgeOrwell-tp8dw]

Meh, if they cared they woulda just strapped it and gone. Zero reason to load it on a trailer. Hundreds of videos on KZbin. Put it in drive, pull it with a strap and it’ll regen like crazy. Much simpler way to get it out of the way and put enough charge into it to get to charger

[@newscoulomb3705]

Thanks for the data charts! I'll say that I'm not surprised by the efficiency numbers, but also, in defense of the Silverado EV, chasing efficiency in an inherently inefficient platform is a fool's errand. That being said, I still think the 3WT is the better balance. It might squeeze out a little better efficiency at 70 mph, but the benefit is with the additional payload and towing capacity. To me, the sweet spot for EVs is as much energy as you can squeeze into ~1,000 lbs for small cars and as much energy as you can squeeze into ~2,000 lbs for fullsize trucks. That should still leave enough overhead for 1,500-2,000 lbs of payload while still providing a realistic 350 to 400 miles of range.

[@Drybones898]

Legos have great tolerances. I assume you mean the opposite.

[@jonathansmith4968]

The Silverado was the least efficient (in this test), which is especially bad as they were on the most efficient wheel/tire package. The Cybertruck was 25% more efficient on All-Terrain tires, which would make the Cybertruck ~35%-40% more efficient on similar wheels/tires. (I actually think the Cybertruck was the most efficient in this test adjusted for wheels/tires) The Cybertruck has it's faults, it's styling is odd at best, and the shape makes imperfections stand out.... but the stainless durability (dent resistance) and rust resistance is really nice, if Tesla can get the price down a bit (they have reduced the prices of all their cars over time) it will be very compelling.

I recently rented a Silverado EV 4WT for a weekend from National Car Rental. When I picked it up, it was charged up to 100%, and it showed 502 miles. I was like, OK. I'll take that. Long story short, I drove 507 miles total, and I only "had" to charge it once, at 12% with 55 miles of range remaining, and I added another 13% and 60 miles (25% and 115 miles of range). If my math is correct, 507 miles driven plus 40 miles (9%) at return (National/Enterprise doesn't penalize you for returning it with low %, and doesn't require you to charge it before returning) minus 60 miles of range added, that would equal to about 487 miles of actual driving range on the battery. That was combined city/highway/traffic/ no traffic/ speeds up to triple digits distance, all done between NYC and Worcester, MA. Fair to say, that are some impressive numbers. And with numbers like that, I would be more than OK with charging my EV up to 80% (400 miles in this case) every time 😉 Great driving experience as well 😃

I've had my 4wt for almost two weeks. almost 2k miles on it and yes, the range is crazy good. Im seeing the same thing as you did. actually get better than the estimated range.

ThAT WAS FUN. Really hope you all do a test pulling camping trailers. agree the Silverado is a beast . think about how you could actually go on a local, say 150 mile fishing trip to the Lake in the Silverado pulling a Camper to the lake AND back home and never need to charge until you get back to the house. 300 mile round trip pulling camper. (should be doable coonsidering 430 miles without camper

[@luiscantu4968]

Dang! The Silverado really killed all others with that range 👀

[@druiz012]

With a 230 kwh battery... the lighting for example has a 130 kwh battery.

[@normt430]

Silverado EV FTW!

[@srt4baby24]

Really appreciate the results up front

[@LearningFast]

Even that F-150 range was usable. That is better than I thought they would do.

[@andrewashmore8000]

yeah i thought the same , the last lightning they tested was a platitnum 260 miles , the 282 miles range one was a Lariat version extended range.

[@ALRinaldi]

need to see the small battery Lightning too...

[@jonathansmith4968]

at 2.5 M/KWH for the Cybertruck is seriously impressive. That was on A/T tires, the Rivian's 2.6 M/KWH was on A/S tires (Far more efficient). I would expect the Cybertruck on A/S tires to do AT LEAST 2.7+ M/KWH in this same test. (Rivian quotes ~13% reduction in mileage on A/T tires, which would put the Cybertruck ~345 Miles on 123 KWH ) The best Cybertruck will be the dual motor with the A/S tires. Which is quite comparable to the Rivian in performance and price, while also being a half-size bigger with a 1.5ft larger bed AND the stainless durability (if you can live with the odd-ball styling)

I know the reviews from this channel is always long... but 2 hours still caught me off guard

[@iamalmostanonymous]

Best Rescue strategy would be V2V. Kinda hard to believe it's not a common feature by now.

[@mev202]

The test finally starts at 38 mins.

[@shahzadiqbal1976]

Amazing video guys. One of the best tests filmed. Thank you so much to the entire OOS team.

[@MatthewSerta1]

13:12 to skip the spoiler!

[@jeremysanchez7997]

Results up front!!! Thank you!! 🙌🙌

[@jdesmo1]

Why is the CT bed cover open??

[@newscoulomb3705]

2:00:53 Something worth considering is that GM's displays tend to round numbers, so "2.0 mi/kWh" could actually be 2.04 mi/kWh. It might sound pedantic, but with 433.7 miles indicated, that would align almost exactly with the 212-213 kWh usable that has been tracked for the 24-module Ultium pack on a number of occasions. The way to confirm would have been the Energy Usage screen, which was unfortunately frozen when Ryan pulled over.

[@mattl7967]

I said after your Austin CT test, you guys greatly undervalued the effect of temperature and lower elevation (greater density altitude)

[@tayo_yahya]

Man Thanks for dropping the results at the beginning

[@jjansendavid]

This is insane! Good job guys

[@partyonyou]

Out of Spec is making the most elite EV content on KZbin!!!! Love the vid

[@Gettfoutrahereloser]

this has nothing to do with the video but does that puddle light come with the rivian or was that aftermarket?

[@TechRyze]

Big respect for delivering the data upfront. New sub and watching the rest of the video now... excellent stuff.

[@Joe-420-69]

Why was tesla bed cover open at 45min

[@Dubitz]

Probably had people come up to him while charging so he showed them around the truck

[@frederick6886]

This is awesome! Thank you, Ryan for these charts 🙌

[@DrKellieOwczarczak]

Really excited about the Silverado. 🤩

[@stephanullmann1581]

My favorite video so far.Very surprised with the range of the Silverado!

[@roodick85]

Lol that damn Silverado is wild!! But GM has the most experience in EVs so it shouldn't be a shock

[@groovekay3858]

Dumb comment lol. Bigger battery 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@munionr]

I think one big problem is that people want the EPA range to be equal to freeway range at 70 MPH. But it isn't. It takes into account city driving. I would argue that the people are right though. Give us freeway range and then city (30MPH stop and go) efficiency.

[@allstarnb1]

I haven’t watched the whole video yet, but noticed Brandon left the vault open when he left the supercharger 🤔

[@TeslaFlex]

Just until i got to the on ramp and i closed it

[@allstarnb1]

@@TeslaFlex as I got into the video I noticed on the display it was closed. I was a little worried there for a bit!😂😂

[@Robert-pm6bm]

Great video Kind of concerning to say “this adaptor isn’t rated for 1000V so just don’t get too close”.

[@carlosl5766]

You ran the F150 Lightning dead last week Nj to Fl 😂

[@guppi7634]

Awesome work. Nerdy, extreme investment from everyone in the team - amazingly interesting results. Thank you!

[@sc5102day]

Will you have data to how much diesel to Kwh from the charger?

[@andrewt9204]

That was a great video! Very interesting data. Just FYI, there's been a few times now where your mic is jammed between your shirt and neck and blows out the audio.

[@scottsmylie1298]

I can only imagine the internet memes that will be created with the diesel generator charging the EV trucks and the Cybertruck on the side of the road.

[@KyleConner]

Bring them on!

[@ghislainbourassa1906]

Not exactly good publicity

[@TeslaCareyP]

Right ugh god I hope no one got pictures of them charging with a generator. The FUD is still so bad 😊

[@roodick85]

Diesels and EVs go together lol Edison motors proves it

[@ItsBinhRepaired]

What's wrong with using another power source to charge up a vehicle? Now we just need mobile superchargers for quick recharging in emergencies to get you to your best charging station. Lol
