Batteries perform worse in cold weather. The ranges are calculated using the WLTP test with standardized conditions, whereas the conditions here were significantly worse. I think the WLTP also has climate control deactivated. This is pretty well-known, however, if you've looked into electric cars for a second. It's also not any worse than the claimed fuel efficiencies which - even with normal to sedate driving behavior - are almost never reachable.

Yes, that would be the most relevant metric for efficiency. I suspect that BYD is giving the gross battery capacity instead of the net capacity.

Running efficiency - the heavier the car, the less efficient it is 2. Charging time - heavier cars tend to need larger batteries 3. Pedestrian safety on impact 4. General environmental impact - due to amount of materials used to build the car 5. Local environmental impact - heavier cars will have higher amounts of tyre and break pollution and we are all discovering just how dangerous these types of pollution really are

I think it's a better emergency handling setup than just stopping. Because if you where looking at the range estimates you probably made a plan... So you're probably close to a solution to charge. Because at those slow speeds electric cars are at their most efficient. You can realistically boost your range by consciously deciding to go at the minimum highway speed limit instead of the maximum. People don't do this because they don't know and electric cars aren't mass adopted yet... But it is technically true in ICE cras too. So I would rather the car start limping and i can turn on 🔺blinkers rather than having to call a tow truck if i missjudged by 5 or 10 miles. In the same veine, there's no excuse for not having a spare tire... Tesla is stupid for removing it, thank god they don't have the apple effect on the industry and nobody is removing it to follow their trend.

Which makes the model 3 even more impressive. The awd seal has lower efficiency than the rwd. If the awd seal was used the model 3 would've beaten it by more. The Model 3 was at a disadvantage efficiency wise.
@jwstolk 2 місяці тому
For ICE cars, the 4WD versions are typically less efficient but for EV's this is not always the case. For example the Tesla AWD has two different types of motors, each optimized for different driving situations, and will most of the time only use the most efficient motor. Only when more power is needed, both motors are used. For the Tesla Model 3 the AWD option is linked to the larger battery, so quite a bit more weight, but most of that has nothing to do with the extra front motor.

Most of the journey was on the A66, remainder on A1(m) and then traffic into Leeds. The car efficiency shown on the journey was 3.6m/kwh. Range on departure from Leeds was 190 miles. When we got home after 145 miles the remaining claimed range was 25, so 14%shortfall. Recharging in Leeds cost £17, recharging back to 100% at home cost £8.

Great test! Although, I recommend that when the EV cannot maintain 50 mph speed, that should be the end of the test and mark the distance as the result. That will bring the test results between different EV much more consistent and comparable. Because the EV software algorithm varies greatly between manufacturers. Some would let the EV drop to let's say 30 mph immediately after the battery is low, and let EV run a much longer distance (because lower speed require less energy consumption). While other EV may try to maintain 50 mph speed as long as possible until the battery is completely dead. So basically the shape of the drop off cliff is very different between EV. Thus, adding variations to the test results.

The range is based on standardised test conditions, not the real world. The same is true of mpg and l/100km figures for ICE vehicles. They are a benchmark for the comparison of vehicles only.

The solution to the problem is to amend WLTP to more accurately reflect real world conditions.

A point that your analysis highlights very well is that, if running cost is an important part of the purchasing decision, you need to get "there and back again" within your available range so that public charging is a rarity. For the Tesla, your commute needs to be comfortably less than 145 miles each way or for the Lexus RZ 450e less than 75 miles each way.

@@jpataca5598 my friend raves about the one pedal driving in his model Y. I've not experienced it myself but I can see how more aggressive regen would give better efficiency in city driving. However for the highway it can be more efficient to allow free wheeling.

Excellent test! The sooner we drop the overall range measure, and the sooner efficiency becomes the key measure, the better. Maybe do the same test, with the same cars, in the summer to see how much closer they get to the ridiculous claimed (and trade sanctioned) figures. Don’t bother retesting the Chadamo pair…..

In India, the Tata Punch EV costs $18,000 and has a real-world range of 270 km. The best part is that it's not a dedicated EV car; originally, it was a petrol car. Somehow, they have fitted a 35 kWh battery in it and have a charging speed of 60 kW.

The big takeaway here these cars are going to average 30% less mileage than advertised on a rainy day.
