I DROVE THESE NEW ELECTRIC CARS (AND A PETROL V8) UNTIL THEY DIED

EV Channels Review

This video pits six electric cars against each other in a real-world range test, driving until they die, with a V8 Audi RSQ8 thrown in for comparison. The Tesla Model Y Long Range emerged as the winner, achieving an impressive 307.2 miles before hitting 0% battery, and continuing for an additional 10 miles. While the Tesla's interior quality and minimalist design were praised, the reviewer disliked the gear selection via the touchscreen and the overly sensitive steering. The Kia EV3 and Xpeng G6 also performed well, with the Kia ultimately outlasting the Tesla by a small margin in terms of total distance after hitting zero, though the Tesla reached Scotland first. The Chinese contenders, BYD Sealion 7, Xpeng G6, and Leapmotor C10, showed promise but had varying degrees of refinement issues, with the Leapmotor C10 being particularly criticized for its driving dynamics and basic features despite its affordability. The Skoda Enyaq Coupe offered a more natural driving experience but fell short in rear-seat space and perceived interior quality compared to some rivals. The Audi RSQ8, while not the focus, demonstrated the significant efficiency gap with EVs.
