What now, EV sceptics? This technology is taking huge leaps on a yearly basis

>>28459770 (OP)
Cool, sounds like my tax dollars aren't required anymore to subsidize this technology.

>>28459770 (OP)
Emphasis on the word claims

>luxury EV
yawn, call me when a 1000€ shitbox ev does that

>>28459770 (OP)
>4900lbs
Sorry but just using a bigger battery pack isn't a technology leap. Also 800kms estimated is 400kms in the real world which is just embarrassing.

EV ranges always come hyper optimistic, bsaed on jewishly economic driving and 100% of the useless BMW gadgets turned off

>>28459897
They will be off by default until you pay.
Imagine paying a subscription for your car's heater but the EU turns it off to be green

>>28459893
The battery isn't bigger.

>>28459770 (OP)
Holy fuck its ugly, almost looks like the new sedan but stretched along the bottom 25% for [BIGGER BATTERY]

>>28459770 (OP)
>Battery bigger
>See? Technological progress.

>>28459917
Imagine hauling around the kgs of tertiary on disk dlc. Just by being there they reduce your range.

>>28459919
It's a compact hatchback that weighs as much as a fucking F-150. How the fuck is that not just another case of cramming in as much batteries as possible to get a usable range out of something?

>>28459770 (OP)
Because the main issue is still not resolved.

Let me know how much range you get in six months.

>>28459770 (OP)
Just 100 more years and we'll be at full adoption for real bro, trust me!

>>28459770 (OP)
With the current capacities it's not about the range, but amount of time it takes to charge the battery. And as the speed chargers cost more than gas the whole situation gets ridiculous

Real world range is between 15-20% off wltp. So 800km (500mi) wltp should be 640-680km (400-420mi)
Then factor in the minimum and maximum soc points and that gives you 450-480km (280-300mi)

HEY GUYS, THE RANGE IS _____ KM*

*until you turn on the a/c or want to drive faster than grandma.

>>28463763
I get around 320 km range with my 77 kwh Skoda Enyaq in Finland at -20 degrees

Who the fuck approves of these god awful wraps for ad placement? Who thought this was a good look for their car ad?

>>28463865
It's camo meant to hide body lines but any idiot would be able to see the car will look like that unless the manufacturer used a mule.

>>28459770 (OP)
>500 mile range
wow, almost as much as my honda

>>28459770 (OP)
How much will it cost to replace the battery in 6 years? 25 grand you say?

>>28463805
Yeah no. The tests and real world data are out there and they're much worse than a 15-20% loss.

>>28459770 (OP)
>new new class

It's going to be a real uggo

>>28459770 (OP)
So.....range of a normal car that can fill up in 2 minutes but this one has to charge for an hour IF you can find a supercharger otherwise it takes 27 hours to charge at hone (?)

>>28459770 (OP)
>800km range
>bmw
the icelet suicide watch hotlines must be on fire

>>28459770 (OP)
It has an unnecessarily large battery.

>EVfags think that range is a factor at all
Too funny. Just throw more vape batteries in that bitch.

>>28465775
You drive 800km a day every day?

>>28463792
What is with you people demanding an arbitrary weight limit and needing a commercial drivers license? So what if I drive a 9000 pound pickup truck, what would getting a CDL help with?

You could put your mom on the braked trailer.

>>28463805
So an optimistic 500 mile range, realistically a 400 mile range and it'll take 8 hours to charge.

EVs really do make sense on paper for most people. You're simply not often driving 200 miles one way very often. You're certainly driving 400 miles in one go maybe once a year and I'd say that just isn't that common anymore. So the range issue is an odd one because consumers demand 400+ miles of range while they drive 40 miles on average daily. I guess that tracks for most consumers being fucking morons: buying a 1000lbft torque diesel pickup and the heaviest thing they haul 1000lbs.

Oh so now we're back to "you dont NEED more"? Because I dont do something today i forfeit my ability to do it tomorrow?
Who exactly is going to decide what I "need" or dont?

>>28465937
Nobody is preventing you to drive 800km with an EV.

>>28465937
No one said "you don't NEED more". I don't know you, you might actually drive that much every day. You might need more. I just think if you only drive 20 miles a day then freaking out because your car can only drive 300 miles is silly. Which is why I asked.

>I need a full size 3 row suburban even though 99% of my driving is with 3 or fewer people and 2 bags of groceries because I might need the extra space once a year
>I need dually diesel pickup even though 99% of my driving is unladen because I might need the extra utility once a year
>I need a car that can go 700 miles without stopping even though 99% of my driving is just back and forth to work because I might need the extra range once a year
Why is one of these statements different from the other two?

>>28459770 (OP)
real life range is probably 250 miles on highway.

>>28465818
You think maybe just maybe people want the range so they don't have to worry about charging their shit every fucking day?

>>28459770 (OP)
800km at what speed?
