EV Channels Review
This video showcases an exhilarating winter test day featuring a diverse range of electric vehicles on a snow track at Copper Mountain. The reviewer highlights the distinct handling characteristics of each EV, particularly focusing on how different drivetrain configurations and traction control systems perform in snowy conditions. The Tesla Model 3 Performance with Track Mode is praised for its adjustability and natural sliding behavior, especially on studded tires. In contrast, a dual-motor Model 3 with a pulled wheel speed sensor is noted for unpredictable power delivery, making it less intuitive. The Renault Twizy is described as a fun, albeit challenging, vehicle on ice due to its short wheelbase. The Audi e-tron, equipped with studded tires, demonstrates impressive agility and control, making it a capable performer. The BMW M340i, with its xDrive system, offers a more traditional, engaging combustion-engine drift experience. The Mercedes EQS, despite being rear-wheel drive, shows surprising capability with ESP off, though it's hampered by less aggressive tires. The Chevy Bolt's front-wheel-drive nature limits its fun factor, though its reverse capabilities are noted. Overall, the video emphasizes the importance of tire choice and the evolving capabilities of EVs in challenging winter conditions, with a strong preference for vehicles offering robust traction control customization.
