@@gs1365 we did in the end, I have a follow up video coming once we know about our warranty experience.

@@Darkmatter321 high country video coming next week, out testing it out here - quite surprising results!

@@cfwoo77 I’ve discovered if you use the cable supplied with the power board out of ev charger port (as it’s bidirectional) you can allow it to run with car off for 24hrs, just have to reset timer again next 24hrs and you could go till flat

the 12+L/100km is a bit of a turn off, but again, 90% of the time I use my car to go to work and do daycare/school pickups... That would be EV only I reckon... hmmm one day, I'll have the cash to get one :D

@@gwjsmith ah it’s in the vehicle settings but you have to apply it at each start up!

@@lot6129 you’re on the wrong channel!

@@BuntaBall40 yes rpm, kilometres to the litre, engine load in % bunch of hybrid stats, cat temps, coolant temps, I’ll make a video detailing each sensor available that’s plug and play and I’ll also try and get a channel discount code from my previous contact at SG.

@@AllTerrainActionEV what's engine rev at when running?

@@BuntaBall40 it varies alot. Mostly seen at 2200rpm. Highest 4400rpm.

@@AllTerrainActionEV Thanks mate

Yes it was to simulate if say you drove this long distance with no EV charging. The whole point is you SHOULD as thats the whole point of PHEV's but we cant ignore that many will use it that way too - any time you can EV charge the ecnomy cost is going to become better, even to now I could charge every night on my 7kW charger but havent been - for the purpose of these videos. This will mean the economy expected can only be better when plugging in at a cost per distance theory.

@@kens97sto171 I seen, good results too!

So there is 12v in the centre console like normal cars, usb an and c but there is no high draw 12v. It looks like it’s a small LFP 12v battery under back seats, can’t see much about what max draw would be but it doesn’t look big. I don’t even know how a 12v winch would work. Many questions haven’t got to that part of the problem yet!

@@ericlin1243 doesn’t exist, or I don’t know how to get to it.

@ it probably needs an OTA update. The option is new for even BYD cars sold in China. It is designed for serious rock climbing at very low speeds <2km/hr

BYDs generally heavier, so

@@tld8102 wait till the 1.6T towing results come in! 😳

You're off-road. If you look at the fuel consumption of other cars when off-road, Ford should exceed 20 liters and 25 liters. Hummer might be 30 or 40 liters.

@@silluete I used to own a 2022 Fortuner Crusade and this is years ahead of it tech wise and traction control off its head it’s speed and intervention is twice as good as the Fortuner more instant more usable, less rocking before traction kicks in. One of the worse things was rear diff lock on, no atrac at the front worst setup ever.

I not really use fortuner for off-road rock climbing. Mostly to reach worksite while mud slinging car behind me 😅. But man what i hate from my fortuner is the body roll really make my passanger purple from envy. If only this car not a company lease car I already modify it. Hell even my atto 3 have less body roll. But yeah either I upgrade to shark or tank hybrid if they ever release it.

You can keep eyes on Denza B8

@ b8 are too wide. Maybe b5.

@ Sure. And B5 is cheaper

As in people making videos or, PHEV utes/offroaders in general?

I'm actually using 98. Why you may ask? Because thats what I've always done with newer vehicles. Some say it makes no differance others say it does, I've just made it a habbit and all my tests are based on that. There is a very good chance it makes little differance vs. extra $$$ at the bowser though, so its a personal preferance. What I dont understand is why Sealion 6 Premium which uses same 1.5L Turbo engine, is RON95 min but the Shark 6 with the same engine and turbo is RON91 min. I would be at least using RON95 for this reason. It would likley be a tune related thing however.

@AllTerrainActionEV thanks mate, I was told 91 is fine when I picked up the car but I think I'll switch to 95 going forward.

BYD has always supported 92-octane gasoline in China. You can check their octane number, which is always available with relatively cheap oil.

@ I understand this but Sealion 6 PHEV came here with ron95 min? Then shark 6 came with same engine and said ron91 min, so some contracting info. Maybe tunes are different. Still something to work out.

@@goforitkesong 😂😂

@@KirkAnderson-l3i I agree definitely not a brutal test, but at least we know it can at least do this. Very familiar with Nullarbor in summer, used to do freight in a total sh1tbox with an underpowered truck with no A/C and having to run a heater to keep an overheating truck fighting crosswinds to and from the west. Eventually someone will subject the Shark to your mentioned conditions, but it all has to start somewhere!

After that , the moon?

Why not try the Everest, that’s what a proper Ute should do

@@oliverpan6754 😂

That is all in part 2 of the vid out next week. Just doing the edit now

@@gagandeepsingh9689 it was a little extreme in this video but we had to have ways to film from 2 positions and 1 phone was a phone while the other phone was used as a camera. Scanguage is a neasasary aux tool - you wouldn’t believe how much we filme and only used maybe 20% of all we took simply to make it short, informative and to a degree content that’s watchable.

@@AllTerrainActionEV Chris, is that a scan gauge 3? Did it just plug n play? I’m keen for something that can monitor engine revs and performance a bit more closely? Cheers

@ yes does all this and yes plug and play, I’m trying to get a discount code for the channel for those interested along with a video release of what sensors actually are accessible for viewing!

Ohh, I have not checked this. Sand shouldnt get in, but red dirt will - almost every car has this issue, I've travelled with people across Simpson Desert and every car, even new had red dirt sneak in somewhere. Sand vs Australia Red Dirt very differant things!

@@AllTerrainActionEV Yeah nah fair enough

In the situation, you will be aiming 15l/100km at least. This kind of hill climbing is very energy consuming.

I used to own a 2021 Toyota Fortuner and that used around 11L/100km with All Terrains. I think I had between 9.5-10.5L/100km with road tyres. Hard to say because as I added bullbar, winch, dual battery etc it started to get worse. In the end was anywhere from 11-12L/100km and that was around 2.7T touring weight. So weight wise vs. economy is feeling similar. The problem with the Shark is battery weight, it will always be at least 2.7T then add things ontop as you add weight, more power demand more electricity more fuel if not able to charge. I can see the Shark been 13-14L/100km easily with touring weight. I can see the Shark 16-19L/100km easily when towing over 2T of weight behind it at highway speeds. Its all relative, I didnt buy it for long tour trip fuel figures, I purchased it so that my day to day driving from home to my business/work etc could be from a electricity. My daily is normally under 70km travel, so that will be around $3-4 in electricity a day for my Mon-Fri driving around as opposed to $16-20 in Diesel a day, sometimes more as idle for A/C when waiting for next job.. or doing paperwork in the car. Shark idle with A/C is 1kW an hour.. hardly anything and effortless. Many pros and cons, but it all balances out probably. Diesels for along while will offer better reliability than EV's right now, but that will change over time I would say.

@@AllTerrainActionEV interesting - thanks for that. To be honest, the performance and ability to do most daily duties in EV mode more than makes up for it being slightly less efficient than a diesel when towing or off road.

@@AllTerrainActionEV They are pretty good figures from the Tuna. My 2018 Hilux started with 10.8L/100 stock and went up to 11.8L/100 with 265/70R17 mud terrains. The roobar and winch did not seem to affect it from what I could see. When I changed the tub to tray and alloy canopy it jumped to 14.5L/100 and stayed there. I think for how you use the Shark it will be great. Anyone living and commuting in a large city will benefit from this type of vehicle. I don't know if you have any plans of changing the tub for a tray and canopy set up but if you do, that may change the efficiency by a large margin as I found out.

Yes comes with 8a wall charger, takes around 8-9hrs to charge from 25%.

In Australia we arent allowed to call these utes a 'truck' it would upset some people hahah!

I feel there is no need, if its wheel living and mountain mode does it with ease, and sand dune coming in sand mode does it with ease, I dont see the need to try other modes (at least at the time) but we can if I remember can try differant modes to see what happens for you next time.

Thanks mate! Had a blast over the weekend.

Yeah the managers there are great, always look after us - understand what we do and love what we do its all the dots joining together to enable us to be able to make this type of content!
