EV Channels Review
This video documents a 1500km winter road trip through Quebec in a Tesla Model 3 Long Range, focusing on the performance of the vehicle and the public charging infrastructure. The reviewer highlights the Model 3's impressive efficiency and performance in extreme Canadian winter conditions, with temperatures reaching -16°C and significant snowfall. Despite the harsh weather, the car maintained good heat and demonstrated remarkable energy consumption, averaging around 208-218 Wh/km. The charging infrastructure review is mixed; while Quebec's network is generally good, the reviewer encountered issues with slower charging speeds at some Circa Electric sites and a non-functional charger at their hotel. They recommend the Circa Electric card for accessing the network. The video showcases various charging experiences, including Superchargers and ChemPower stations, with the latter being praised for their interface and handshake speed, though not always the fastest. Overall, the trip was deemed a success, proving the Tesla's capability in challenging winter environments and providing valuable insights into EV charging in remote Quebec regions.
