In fact, for 22kw charging, you only get 14kw in you battery

THANKS

[@justinholding02]

This test is very useful to me, I'm picking up a 2021 E-UP at the end of the month and I've got to drive 367kms back home. Wish me luck 🤞😂

[@halftome]

did you make it with one charge? :')

[@justinholding02]

@@halftome almost. 10.8 kWh/100 km average. I just needed one short charge.

[@halftome]

@@justinholding02 Nice! Picking up mine today, super excited! Project Tesla will have to wait another year 🙄

[@justinholding02]

@@halftome it's a brilliant little EV. Enjoy

[@ronb4633]

Thanks for the review. A couple points. 1. Generally a higher battery temp will increase the charging rate as lithium ion batteries want to be around 25C for optimal charging. 2. Several EVs are able to take HVAC Power above the Battery charging power so that warming the car will not adversely affect your charging rate. You could test that on the vehicle by watching the charger rate then turning on the HVAC which will draw about 5kw while heating I presume. 3. Charging near the high end like 80% will generally be slower. Would be better if you could plan to start charging at about 10% if you want to see optimal rate. I have had a Chevy Bolt EV for a couple years.

[@VirtuellJo]

Cannot wait for the ID.3 tests 👍

[@talhabinumeed650]

Drive at 90kmh for 1.5/2 hrs. Charge for half hour. Optimal pattern for long distance. Charging speed will be enough for a meal or drink

[@fulcrum25000]

I saw through app ABRP that the bestest is when you drive between 100 and 103km/h... You have to drive for 30 minutes prior your arrive at 80km/h to cool the batteries, during the summer

[@TILL_OFARIM]

105-110 laut Tacho ist das sinnvollste

[@xavierandreumas2332]

@@fulcrum25000it is funny that In winter you need to preheat the batteries… and in summer you need to precool the batteries.

[@raffiefoxmew3691]

Honestly 90kph is about right for most british roads, will only be at 110 on the motorways when trying to get somewhere quickly and 130 is already WELL into speeding fine territoryfor UK motorways X3 Glad to see it holding up so well in efficiency. I would definitely recommend going from 15%-70% on fast chargers, rather than 25-80, due to the charging speed being SO MUCH faster below 30%. Also it's better for the battery to do 15-70 (and is the optimal cycle for smartphones and laptops too!) :)

[@rhiantaylor3446]

Thanks for the video - useful information.

[@ronb4633]

One numerical tidbit, looking at 90kph vs 130kph is 44% faster. Then looking at 128wpkm vs 185wpkm is 44% higher so that is pretty good. Yes it's just down to charging time. I looked up the e-Up can do 20mim 0-80% with a 50kW charger and those Ionity stations are capable of at least 150kW at 400v so they will not limit you. I think that you will see better charging speeds if battery warn, which high speed should get you and you get initial charge state like 5-10% though I know that may make you nervous. Again thank you for your videos, feel very real.

[@marcinsobczak2485]

thanks for this video. it was very important to mo, because this is how i drive my cars to work (90-100 kmh) and im thinking about small electric car like that.

[@petermarshall1953]

Four chargers...come to Great Britain...lucky if you get one....if its working

[@Top12Boardsport]

At home charging speed normally doesn’t matter if you plug in when you come home from work and set what time you wish to departure. But at for longer trips it’s all about charging speed 50kW is minimum 250kW or more is the dealbreaker.

[@DobermannJeff]

Die ionity charger haben tatsächlich eine Flüssigkeitskühlung. Soweit ich weiß werden sogar die Kabel gekühlt.

[@NeilBlanchard]

What was the air temperature? This matters in 2 ways: colder air is more dense, and so aero drag goes up (significantly) in colder air. And the cabin heater also has to work harder, the colder it is. The seat heaters are not going to make a noticeable difference.

[@dragosflorian6630]

Hi, the lane assist on the e-up will steer the car on to the curve or just signal with a beep or something when going outside the lane? I am waiting for my e-up, hope to get the car next week :). Thanks!

[@alessandrolugli7850]

It does steer the car back in the lane, it's actually a bit "aggressive" when driving in the city, I usually turn it off because it's a bit annoying to me

[@dragosflorian6630]

@@alessandrolugli7850 Thank you.

[@ewheelerfinland]

🤔 Does the e-UP stop charging at the moment, when you open central locking? Does it continue, when you lock again?

[@BatteryLife]

Ac yes. Dc keeps on charging

[@RomanRoman-xi3dv]

Will you consider OBDII tests with voltage, and batt temp tests?

[@BatteryLife]

I only had the car for 2 weeks in March. Press car.

[@DobermannJeff]

Ich bin ca 750km gefahren zwischen Tacho 95-110 mit einem Verbrauch von 13,3kwh laut Bordcomputer und Real habe ich 14,6kwh auf 100km gebraucht. Ich bin nachts gefahren hatte aber gute Temperaturen zwischen 15-20 Grad

[@bgxw1342]

Good job Cris.

[@John_S_NL]

I find the filming a bit chaotic. And the testing is not done in the same conditions. At the 130km/h test the climate system is turned of, where it is on with the first 2 tests.

[@marcobianco3937]

Also regeneration mode Is different

[@backwoodsbungalow9674]

At 15:23 in this video you show the charging rate falling from 17kW above 70%. The charging time from 70% to 80% is painful, so for your long trip to Prague would it be possible to charge to only 70% and still reach the next charger?

[@BatteryLife]

I already took the trip, there is a video online. This video was filmed the first week of March.

[@eup9856]

schlechte Ladeleistung...auch im Frühling. Nach der Fahrt mit 130Km/h müsste der Akku ja wärmer sein, und damit schneller laden.

[@s-reptilesfranckambre2405]

Hi, how many km you can do at 90km/h in the winter, with heat, lights, radio and phone? Thanks a lot. Thinking of this for my wife, 53km/day to go to work.

[@BatteryLife]

Maybe 150km !?!

[@michaelvaniseghem6478]

For me 106 km/day even by minus 15 degres at night with radio, phone, air dryer its ok with this car

[@ewheelerfinland]

😊 How much was the average price per charge / kWh on Ionity?

[@BatteryLife]

Said it in the video. 35c per kwh

[@ewheelerfinland]

@@BatteryLife Ah okay, I missed it 👍

[@ontopoftheroof]

@@BatteryLife 14:16 79 cents

[@OutsideGamer99]

So if i understand correctly, in the First Test With average speed of 90kmh, you had a consumption of 13.5 kwh per 100km. At the Charging station ohne kwh 79 cents. So you paid 10,66€ FOR 100kmh ??? I Hope That ist Not the case cause this Would be Double the cost of my petrol vw up.

[@BatteryLife]

If you charge at Ionity without a special card. You pay 0,79€ per kWh. That isvery expensive. I pay 0,30€.

[@raffiefoxmew3691]

There are tons of chargers where it's 30c per kw. Ionity is just v expensive.

[@RomanRoman-xi3dv]

Would lane assist keep you on the lane in turn 80kmh?

[@BatteryLife]

Lane assist does the ping pong thing. Travel assist holds you in the middle.

[@philb4031]

Unsure what's going on? Are you able to provide the full real world range for each speed? thanks

[@petrospetrosghali]

12.5 kwh per 100km would suggest a range of 300 km in this car, maybe just under

[@justinholding02]

Did you ever manage to get the announced 40Kw charging speed?

[@BatteryLife]

No, 34 was max.

[@justinholding02]

@@BatteryLife I am considering buying one. Do you still think it's a wise choice in 2021? Almost brand new, full options, for 17000€

[@Bulgdoom]

90kmh is too slow for the highway, 110-120 is normal range for driving. Limit here is 140kph.

Maybe winter...

[@ivancudina93]

E-cars still have a lot to go before becoming a better option compared to internal combustion-powered cars. But they are getting better and better. If this car had twice the range and half the price, I'd buy it.

[@AleksandarStefanovic]

There have been electric cars that charge much faster and have much better range since 2012. What you're saying is that good electric cars need to get cheaper, and cheap electric cars need to get good, and that's slowly becoming a reality. Electric cars will soon reach price parity when it comes to purchase, and are already cheaper when considering running costs and maintenance
