Deutschland feels like living still in the 1990s: cash required everywhere, using even 1 and 2 eurocent coins, terrible mobile reception and internet connections... Sometimes feels incredible that small countries like Netherlands and Denmark are so much future oriented and modern.

[@makcmee241]

Germans like cash. It's more of a cultural thing, but it's changing somehow.

[@SURFpal]

Future oriented means that you sign up to be traced and eventually controlled.

The toilet may cost 70 cent, but the toilets by the autobahn in Germany are super clean, that’s why they cost money. Also restaurants and night clubs have people cleaning regularly

[@lucas7793]

The toilets on resting areas in Germany can often be paid with NFC credit card. Did this a lot when going through Germany this summer.

[@ThePykon]

Greetings from Falkensee, which is quite close to Potsdam :). Since Potsdam used to be the summer residence of the Prussian kings, there are a lot of palaces there, most notably the Sanssouci palace. Definitely worth a visit. On your way south on A9, you passed ‚Gartenreich Dessau-Wörlitz‘ where the lords of the principality of Anhalt-Dessau built a very nice ensemble of palace and garden as well.

[@Destralak]

We’re currently doing a roadtrip in Germany as well! Regarding Potsdam - you missed the biggest sight; Schloss Sanssouci and the Neues Palais 😉 free to visit the park and view palaces outside. also there’s an AC charger on the parking lot there.

[@rnilsson8063]

Re: Sights in Potsdam: Some six years ago we happened to find a little gem hidden in the beechwoods nearby, the small island Pfaueninsel (Peacock Island) where peacocks still roam about, there is a mock rococo castle, old oaks and wild onions in springtime. Very nice. A 2-car ferry takes you there on foot across maybe 40 metres of lake, and the first thing to see upon landing is a sign: Toilets 0,02 km :-D No traffic, walking restricted to paths, in principle no food service, no camping. Bring a blanket and thermos!

[@KrisRifa]

Missing the German autobahn already, so now I'm kinda re-living my week in Munich through Bjørn's trip! Safe trip mate, and have fun! 😊

[@phonehoppy]

Common disadvantage in Germany for Tesla, that the Superchargers are almost always in locations that you have to exit the motorway for. Ionity is generally placed more conveniently, but they only have 4-6 stalls in most German locations. EnBW's alpitronic Hyperchargers are also quite reliable and fast, and they are in pit stop locations, but again, they only have 2 or 4 HPC outlets except for some places like e.g. Ulm. They're worth a try, though, if you want to have more flexibility in choosing your stops...

[@karla6999]

The note at H4Hotel chargers asks for telling the reception when the car is done charging.

[@BHBeckenbauer]

I’ve just had an iX 50 for a few days and was really impressed. 360 miles range and very quick 👏

[@skblablablabla]

The "pit stop problem" you mention around 14:50 actually has to do with legal regulations regarding who can operate what at highway rest areas or road houses. These "Autohöfe" are operated completely independent from the autobahn itself, therefore, it might be easier for Tesla to build a supercharger there.

[@skog5209]

7:00 Potsdam is well worth a visit to see the palaces. Especially Frederick the Great's Sanssouci and the site of the Potsdam conference. It is one of the most historic places in Germany.

Hi Bjørn, nice to see you driving in Germany on the Autobahn. You passed "Hermsdorfer Kreuz", which I also do two til three times a week. I work in Jena and live in Gera. Anyway, I remember some years ago my girlfriend, our kids and me hired a Renault Zoë. We wanted the car only for a test drive on a friday. But the salesman was not that much convinced when it came to electromobility. He said that nobody wanted to buy that car. (One or two years later it became the most selling car in Germany). So he had nothing against our wish to test the car the whole weekend. For free. It was so amazing! And the first charging stop was at...guess what... Münchberg 😉 Have a nice trip to Slovenia! Love your vids, bye and see you soon.

[@thorbjrnhellehaven5766]

3:10 one crazy idea: What about a travel/camping rack for rear mount, on trailer hook? Attached like bike/cargo-rack. Portable toilet, Expandable floor, sidewalls and roof. Foldable for smaller size and better aerodynamic while driving.

[@rogerbakke2566]

It seems the IX gained 14% battery level while getting 16.4 kWh, which means filling 100% would take about 117 kWh. So this is the iX50 right?

[@ironqqq]

0:32 stunning you guys get 3 phase AC for charging in Europe. Only 16 amps for 10 kW. It's such a shame that 3 phase is not part of J1772 standard in North America. 3 phase is available in every industrial and commercial building here.

[@adrianguggisberg3656]

That's because almost all households in Europe have 3-Phase 230/400V power, Split-Phase wiring doesn't exist. Therefore almost all home chargers are 3-Phase and almost all current EV's are equipped for 11kW or 22kW 3-Phase charging. There are 3-Phase chargers available in the US, but they only make sense for commercial vehicles, because regular EVs are equipped for Split-Phase rather than 3-Phase power. The obvious reason being that all US homes are only Split-Phase wired.

At 16:11 you were at the wrong supercharger, at the V2. In Pfaffenhofen there is a brand new V3 charger at Hotel Strasshof with 24 stalls. Its about 1,9 km from the Autohof / Shell stations. Its super annoying that the Navi didnt prefer the V3, or there is no warning about it.

[@bjornnyland]

I know about that one. And I prefer to take the shortest detour to charge at v2 instead. Remember that you waste time going to a charger further away. And as you have seen, the Model Y with LG battery can't utilize v3 much.

2:25 - well if it is like me 2017MX 90D initially capped at about 109kw, over the years and few update I can reach 150kw!!!! Indeed, I recently discovered that V3 SC give me 150kw max while V2 will cap me at about 135kw max! I guess this is due to V2 goes up to 150kw theory while V3 goes up to 250kw…so the car gets to get the most it can with the V3… Since, I picked V3 over V2 whenever I can…

[@dominolehmann8227]

More important is that v3 has a 400kWh buffer and you don't experience slowdowns that fast due to sharing stalls :)

Germany and pay by credit card is a NoGo. But Corona accelerated it a bit, so you are able to pay now more often with pay pass or apple pay, etc. But the people here do not trust banks, and they take their sallery and have always money in cash. Strange

[@CreRay]

In the last 2 months I had 3 times when I stopped to refuel at the Autobahn, when the pump didn't work. All 3 occasions it was due to the EC payment system not working, and there was a sign put up telling you had to go inside first to get the pump "unlocked" (if you happened to carry enough cash). On the last occasion the warning sticker was already faded so I must be quite some time the EC payment system wasn't working.... Being dutch I find that truly incredible. Seriously, in Germany you have to carry cash as you will counter situations where cards are not accepted, or the EC system isn't working.

Where a national speed limit is one of the biggest tabus, yet the average travel speed is in fact lower than some countries where mostly 100 is allowed....

In the first place the owner has intentionally lent him the car to run it through its paces. Secondly he is also often utilizing the lower half of the battery which I think is better for it than only using eg. 80-60% for daily commuting and shopping trips which some EV owners seem to do (and even worse 100-80% for those with EVs without charge limit or who don't want/know how to use it).
