EV Channels Review
This video addresses viewer questions and provides an update on upcoming content, while also announcing the sale of the channel's long-term Tesla Model 3. The host details the channel's EV range testing methodology, which involves a 60-mile loop repeated until 90% of the battery is depleted, followed by charging to determine actual consumption. Real-world range figures are compared, noting that the Model 3 and Chevy Bolt are optimistic in their advertised ranges, with the Model 3 showing a 60-mile deficit (190 miles real-world vs. 240 advertised). The host also discusses various other vehicles, including the Ram Heavy Duty trucks, Volvo S60, Mazda 3, and minivans, offering insights into their pros and cons. The Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus is being sold for approximately $38,000, representing a slight loss after factoring in the cost of the Autopilot upgrade.
