I've seen a lot of videos from Bjorn now, and I still can't figure out if he is car-tester or a food critic. Don't matter, I like both tests😎

[@freddydad1]

Great vid, in the uk those conditions would close down the entire country😂😂

[@PitlordWeedsmurph]

I’m a Bulgarian that studied in Glasgow for a few years and it really perplexed me when it snowed like a millimetre veil and everything closed. Compare that to my home country where we would all go to school and work in the literal ice age.

[@Celoxocis]

same would happen in Germany. As soon as a snowflakes falls in Germany, German drivers forget how to drive and you have accidents followed by traffic jams and streets locked down.

[@nathanwolf5547]

Ain’t that the truth! I don’t even know if you can buy winter tyres here. We’d no bother anyway.

[@bobuk5722]

Hi, I remember the winter of 1962/3. Snow drifts 20 feet deep in places. People used to know how to cope back then. Now, as others have said, two snowflakes and it all grinds to a halt. I still know how to drive in snow, many I see do not these days.

[@chihonchoi6898]

Same as in the Netherlands, they will issue a weather alert!

[@hazehzon6970]

My first real winter experience with the Model Y RWD BYD (Giga Berlin produced). I've had it for ~6 months now. The RWD is both fun and efficient when driving in snowy winter conditions. You have a slight oversteer which is fun. The traction control system corrects the car immediately, however, so it never feels on the limit. I would have appreciated a winter mode that allowed more oversteer. In winter time at -5 and up it really takes a toll on the range big times. You barely get 200 km which is not really good if you live up north and going on longer trips. I wonder if the BYD blade batteries are worse in colder conditions compared to the LR Tesla versions. Tesla states a 455 km WLTP for the RWD. If I barely get 200 km in -8 it means more than a 50% drop in range. To hit the 455 WLTP I would need a consumption of ~1,3kWh/10km. But in -10 degrees it consumes around 2,5-3,5kWh which seems a bit high if I compare to friends who drive LR/Performance versions of Model Y. This is my personal gut feeling. Maybe @Björn this is something you could test. One winter flaw I have noticed is that when you activate the cruise control the software automatically sets the windscreen wipers to Auto mode. That tells me the software devs have never driven a frozen car in real winter conditions. The last thing you want is the windscreen wipers to activate. Either you ruin the wipers since they might be frozen or you ruin the sight as it smears out dirt all over the windshield. But most of the time both. They need to enable the option to NOT automatically enable wiper just because using the cruise control. Another winter design issue is the area behind the rear window. If you warm the car after a heavy snow fall it will melt the snow which will accumulate on the very rear as there is no natural way for the water to drain off the tailgate. The result is a huge lump of ice causing the tailgate not being able to open by itself because it is too heavy. You have to run out after snowfall to wipe the snow off before turning on the heat to avoid.. But overall I'm still very satisfied with the Model Y 2023 RWD. Every car has it flaws and Model Y still so far has very few

[@KaboshPenguine]

My MIC 2023 MY RWD has an average consumption of 174 wh/km over 6000 winter kms in Toronto Canada. This winter was warmer than usual but it was still averaged -4 C or so.

I'm pretty sure he is aware of that. I can confirm this is not always helping in bad conditions. They freeze either way but maybe no as bad as without the heating.

Pulling left to right in Canada is called fish tailing. We try to avoid RWD for that reason. But because of the weight and good snow tires you will be fine!

[@4EV-ER]

Service mode in winter, only those who live in true winter conditions know it works the best. Had one car with heated windscreen, it kind of works but the wires in the window are not that efficient and use a lot of extra energy , not sure how it's in newer Teslas, but in extreme conditions gravity is your best friend, snow goes down and in service mode the wipers are up so they are much easier to clean as long as you blast warm air on the windshield and the same energy is also used to warm up the cabin so overall more efficient.

[@hartfischer5509]

What do you mean, disadvantage of Rear Wheel Drive? The opposite, this is the advantage, you can drift through the curves and really enjoy : ) You Norwegians are the experts in snow, going 87 in snow, without winter tires. That is quite skillful.

[@Tomaskom]

AWD cars have better traction and get going easier than RWD/FWD... The downside is people in those sometimes get overconfident and might even end up in the ditch more often 😀They simply forget AWD gives you no advantage with turning or braking (only regen behaves nicer, but emergency braking distance is the same).

[@Frygisk]

The problem is the drivers as you are saying. People get scared when the car slips and end up braking and overcorrecting when they should throttle like Bjørn did here. The antispin reduces power to the wheels to find traction, it does not add power.

[@Tomaskom]

@@Frygisk Absolutely. When I went for training on a skid plate, not instinctively going for the brakes was a major factor in getting it under control instead of a spin, especially in the shorter wheelbase e-208. However, keeping throttle would not help you in any way in the fully developed skid that the skid plate pushes you into instantly, especially on a RWD car. Even for me with FWD it did nothing useful, the surface was just too slippery for that. When it just starts to develop though, in a real scenario, major reduction in throttle (or even brakes) unload the sliding rear of the car and definitely make things worse 🙂.

[@scotduckrow8524]

If the LFP battery is so robust, why have they decreased the warranty to 100K miles?

[@mullermeister]

I think standard range was always 100k miles. Bigger battery means fewer cycles for the same amount of miles.

[@scotduckrow8524]

@@mullermeister Yes, but I believe LFP is good fort double or triple the cycles and 100K doers not reflect any confidence that this is true.

[@MrAdopado]

@@scotduckrow8524 I think the issue is that they are still selling RWD with different battery packs so it would be a problem to claim one level of warranty depending on the car that was delivered to you. Maybe if/when all RWD are on the LFP across the world they will go to the longer warranty...

[@GlennLaycock]

Here in winter and spring I have to pretty much not use the auto steer and lane assist as the lines are mostly worn off and the "paths" are only generally following what was marked - so often you get 2 or 3 lanes complete shoulder area, and they effectively become 1 or 2 lanes in the winter and the markings would drive you into a drift or off the road. In the spring the markings are mostly gone, and you have to very careful as that roads get so chewed up by the trucks and SUVs that the assist will just be fighting you too much as you weave around things more - I also get animals crossing (our bypass road has cement between the two directions so if animals come over they are often in a jump, so I stay off the fast lane as it would hit my car over the hood which is bad - I do not know how people have zero issues when they self drive all the time, I always have to be looking ahead and I worry. 3% left is awful tight - even with gas I do the 25% extra for my travel plans; and in winter you need that reserve, granted it is 99% mental anxiety calming - but if you have one scary time, you just never seem to let your guard fully down.

It’s always impressive to see Norwegian drivers in the snow. Here in the UK we stay on summer tyres all year and smash into each other as soon as there is a dusting of snow.

[@yeahbuddy92193911]

There is an off road mode in Model Y that helps in snowy conditions. Also with the SEXY buttons you can lower regen breaking and it turns your phone into a heads up display. But the Teslas are awesome in snow, no need to do anything different except drive slower in snow.

[@minicirco]

This is great test to see winter conditions consumption. I wonder is very heavy conditions, like for example you are caught out by a snowstorm out of the city. What would happen, what type of consumption for driving and what type of consumption if you decide to camp out in the car until help arrives. How much can you stand with some heat on a battery. You did some overnight sleep videos in the past. That would be great to be done again.

[@Frygisk]

My guess is 1kw/hr to stay sufficiently warm when stuck in a blizzard. My old model s would use 2-4% percent camping overnight in sub-zero temps, these new model Ys have way less consumption for heating. Just charge up well before a hazardous drive, have a good buffer just in case you get stuck. Teslas are imo the best winter cars out there, Ive driven three different model s over 300.000km in northern Norway and I cant recommend them enough. High quality tires are a must, but that goes for all cars. Never chesp out on tires, especially winter tires.

Sadly there is no "Snow mode" or low re-gen. Just drive 1800km up north and got to feel this. When the car breaks traction on re-gen it will disable it or severly reduce it a while.

[@MrAdopado]

Bjorn was controlling level of regen with how he lifts off the pedal ... if the car is breaking traction then you are lifting off too fast. (I'm not sure why the earlier Model 3 had a low and a standard regen setting yet they now don't do this on the newer 3 or Y.)

[@mka8606]

@@MrAdopado Now, you don't always have time to control it. Will it get dangerous then? many other brands offer the option to turn it off completely, which makes sense to me in the winter. my girlfriend is a little worried about buying a RWD that she can't control the rear end when it's slippery, she's not the world's best driver and will probably panic if it throws the rear end when you lifts off the peda to fast

Thanx for the video Bjorn, but let me get this straight, 12:45 into the video it seems like the car had only driven 241 km with 3% remaining battery. 241… km… that is a freaking bad if a salesman told you this car has 455 km (WLTP) of range.

Getting from 27 to 9 degrees will take more than 12 hours. For test preparations we have found that to have a battery temperature equal to ambient temperature and a delta of roughly 20 degrees we would need about 6 hours for the first half, and about 18 to 24 for the rest, depending on battery mass. It is a lot of mass you are attempting to cool down. Also, the BYD blade cells will surprise you, knowing that you tested the standard range plus LFP before.

I did 100.000km in my old `13 model s P85 in Northern Norway and I was very pleasantly surprised at how well it worked. I only got stuck one place. It was a steep hill with no place to get speed and I had studless tires. Put chains on and got up like a tractor. RWD works great, but I would get the AWD if your budget allows. If you do howecer get the RWD I would get premium studded tyres and keep chains in the car just in case, and you and your wife should take some time to get used to how the car works when it slips. Aim the steering wheel where you want to go and add throttle. Its unintuitive, but the traction control in Teslas is really good. It can only reduce power to the wheels though, not add. So you need to give it something to work with. I have tested and experienced this a fair few times, especially in the hairpin turns over Hamarøya 😅

I could only get like 250km in one charge. I then Superchargerd and drove the rest of my journy (about 200km) and then the consumption was 140wh/km. So if you are going for a long drive in winter. Is it better to supercharge the car befor you start?

[@Frygisk]

The supercha4ing warmed up your battery, so yes, supercharging before a long trip in the winter will reduce your consumption.

[@BadNuunuu]

@@Frygisk yes but befor i started the trip i charged car from 8%-100% and had set it to precondition for optimal driving while it was plugged in and still it was that big diffrent from superchargeing

Is autopilot possible on snow-covered roads?

[@SuperDensen]

Yes

[@marcuszimmermann326]

So how much further would the LR come under those conditions?

[@bjornnyland]

LR has 35 % more range. LR would then go 350 km and need a charge only 100 km away from home.

[@marcuszimmermann326]

350km on a single charge under such conditions is quite good I have to admit!

[@MorganSundqvist]

We have a kia e-niro with lease ending in spring. We have a cabin 300 km in north of Sweden. Fully packed car with 4 people and i have never arrived with less than 12 % even in - 20 C. Started looking at new cars, as the lease is soon up and I'm a bit scared if the range is this bad with Tesla. Other brands also seem to have really bad range.

[@Oystein3700]

Were your winter tires studded or studless?

[@bjornnyland]

Studless

Just put snow tires on my RWD lfp. Let it snow.

[@lastnightsfavorite]

You would think that LFP Blade battery is the toughest MF in regards to Degradation, but no Tesla battery is loosing more capacity over time as the Model Y RWD out of Grünheide. For whichever reason...

[@wolf-dieterschulz-engelke8598]

Where is the statistic or study about this? The blade battery is not long enough on the market.

[@lastnightsfavorite]

@@wolf-dieterschulz-engelke8598 It's true that it is too new to tell for sure, but again. Looking at the data, there has never been a battery pack that lost more rated km in such a short time: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LmyllKqJWBr8J_LKVIAimsOigT4-hpfi5NeFJR8qZhQ/edit?usp=drivesdk

[@maydz04]

what kind of tires do you use here?

[@bjornnyland]

Nokian R5 EV

[@MrOP66]

Like your channel, but driving on summer tires in this weather voluntarily is just bad example.

[@bjornnyland]

Lol, you got trolled so hard: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZOkaad8ltl7hqc

He has Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 winter tyres on this Model Y.
