“Charging etiquette “ might be interesting video idea.
Lofoten Islands 2020: 2 x 50kW = 100 kW non-Tesla high cap chargers Lofoten Islands 2021: 2 x 50kW + 7 x 180 kW = 1360 kW non-Tesla high cap chargers That's proper improvement!
Thanks Bjorn, been wondering how busy it is over there. Might give us a picture of things to come in the UK. Thankfully most networks are rolling out contactless payments on chargers. Most new installations will have and rest will be updated.
Tesla sell you a car with ready to use infrastructure. The rest just sell you a car. And then some of them starts to build the infrastructure (with EU funding).
Tesla understands the value of a standardized installation that can be predictably installed, plus zero hassle charging. If you charge your Tesla car with an expired payment card on your account, the car charges FIRST, and THEN they ask politely. Service like that is why the Circle K chargers are empty.
@@RandyTWester Tesla can do that because they are sure they can get you, in the final instance by not only stopping you from charging at superchargers, but all fast chargers, until you answer their "polite" request of paying. No other car manufacturers are basically bricking their customers car if they think you have done something "unauthorized". There are two much more important reasons people are choosing Mer over Circle K chargers that Bjørn did not mention: While "everyone" have an account to charge with Mer, Circle K only built a lot of chargers in the last 1-2 years so many people have not set up an account with them yet. Secondly many people probably think it is cheaper with Mer as that was true until recently.
@@boostav It literally said on the charger at 12:09 in the video that you can just scan QR code and pay with credit card, no account needed. People are used to having to set up an account though, and in the long run unless you do not want to share your email, the easiest is to register and use the same RFID as for other chargers. At least until every charger is taking credit cards, which will not be any time soon unfortunately.
We were at Brokelandsheia last Monday first day of Ferie around 14:20 testing the App. On the Tesla Supercharger side there was a queue of about 7 EVs lined up on that empty parking lot behind the Hotel and there were about 7 Tesla stalls free (most of them are V3 so no problem). The Eurospar had queues out the door and there must've been around 700 people inside. It really depends on the day and time, but I guess the 7 EVs waiting were not very happy they choose another EV that day.
Seriously it must be frustrating sitting waiting for 50-75 kW chargers and then seeing Teslas breeze in, charge at up to 250 kW and drive off again. I’d feel so smug as a Tesla owner lol
@@Auraxium Yes, their face impression was to kill. Especially as there is no shade there and it was 28C in the shade and they had to wait inside the cars. And most Teslas were ready in 10-15 minutes. It was really chaos on that day.
It's busy along E18, but the charging infrastructure is definitely better than last year. I saw 3 e-Golfs hogging 150kW chargers when there were 50kW stations available just 15 meters away. One of them got really annoyed when I asked if he would be willing to move to a 50kW :/
I think I can count on one hand the number of times I've seen an e-Golf plugged into a 50kW stall when there were 150kW ones available for hogging. Why do people insist so vehemently on being idiots?
@@OlethrosNOR people can appear technically illiterate but you should go easy on them because it never mean they are idiots. Sincerely someone that has done technical support.
Circle K has been as aggressive as Ionity had been installing chargers. It's pretty wild in the last few years. Tesla has been just as crazy on adding stalls. It's needed but good to see that somewhere it is a priority.
It's actually totally unaxeptable that the charging stations don't take credit cards so you HAVE to use stupid cumbersome apps or rfid and give away your contact info to lots of companies so they can spam you :( Very nice that they have the feature, if you for example want to check charging stats on your phone, or want to review usage over time and stuff, but it is for people with special interests :) It's good to hear that you also are thinking of this problem and are bringing it up! :D
Every physical credit card reader is a hacking opportunity. Better to have another layer of security in between the credit card account and the charger.
Several networks actually allow charging without registering now, with QR code directing you to a website where you can enter your credit card details.
Nice to see so many open supercharger stalls! Road trip to Norway next week I hope. In a Tesla of course. :) It's sort of funny that Tesla is both the cheapest and the most available network at the same time.
I enjoyed the video, the info (“I used to pee here!”), and the message that 1) there need to be more chargers, and 2) using the chargers needs to be as simple as filling with gas. I love my Tesla Model 3 SR+, certainly not the least of reasons being the charging network. That was a great “discovery” of mine as I researched EVs. And even simpler in use! I did finally use a Charge Point charger at a hotel in Carlsbad (LEGOLAND). I already had the app, and do that was fairly simple, though it had many more steps than using a Super Charger. The big advantage at the hotel was it was FREE! Woo hoo! They had six (I think) chargers, and during the day while the park was open, all the stalls were filled, but at night I had no problem plugging in over night. Great video, Bjorn!
Bjorn, you could highlight how easy it is to use each charging network as a non-registered user. Would be a good comparison, you drive lots of cars through Norway and you see many chargers. Do like a tutorial on, for example, how to charge on Circle K, Mer and other networks. Compare ease of use and accessibility on the spot. That would be cool to see which network is the most beginner friendly.
I like that I can define charging stops also by the number of stalls in ABRP, unfortunately, they are not counting all stations per location (e.g. SuC and ionity). But it's definitely better to wait when there are 16stalls than 4.
Very interesting video to see the current situation in Norway. Not looking forward to holiday travel in Ireland in August, with still very few hubs other than expensive IONITY…
Did some driving down Østerdalen this summer and there it was quite some people waiting for a spot to charge their cars. But I don't think that will stop me from getting my first electric car this fall 👍
i was at obs foxrød 2 weeks ago. and it was crazy que. took me 1 hour before i got the chance to charge. about 1600 to 1800. but the rest of the way to kristiansand was fine
Dombås this weekend... Sheeeeeeet it was crowded. only few awvialble SUC while eON e.g. was totally crowded. Meanwhile in Bismo i was the only one charging, totally alone with 25SUV V3. hahah
Thank you Bjorn for the excellent video. Indeed, chargers should be user friendly, which is not the case now. I'm a happy EV owner, however I will not advice by father 72 years old to buy an EV until the plug and charge protocol will be implemented by the main networks.
Do you know the funny thing is, i had to drive a diesel the other day and we decided to put 10 euro in it. None of my credit/debit cards worked at several fuel stations we visited, none of them had any staff like i remember from my home country, they were all always staffed even at night! Not to mention the diesel got on my hands and it was gross. I found myself wishing there was just an app i could use to activate the petrol/diesel pump!
I have never seen a Roadster charger. Hong Kong had quite a lot of first Roadsters here, but never saw how they charged as none were known to be public. Expensive cars then, but not very practical as they were only 2 seaters with a tiny trunk that could fit 2 small dogs (not recommended to put 2 dogs in the trunk but you get my meaning)
Hi, Thanks for the video. It was interesting to see how much your infastructure has grown. With so many more cars charging does that fill up the Circle K stores, or what? How do ev drivers pass time in very busy charge stations? I loved how quiet it was regardless.
The car manufacturers should be required to build the chargers for the number of vehicles they sell in each country. This way they take care of their vehicles fuel needs.
care manufactures are not required to build the gas stations "for the number of vehicles they sell". government should enforce mandatory unified charging interface for all EVs.
Excited for the Ioniq 5 review. I decided to get a Leaf to save money as I won't need it for any trips longer than 100 km, but I will be watching this car over the next five years for when we need to replace our second car assuming we have better infrastructure here in the US for a better cross country experience.
We have this thing called "EZ Pass" for toll roads and parking. A small RFID box mounted to windshield or on the front number plate. Gov't should allow public utilities to use a standard like this and build public chargers with the usual nominal and "peak" markups like Tesla does. No app, no credit card required. Just register the car once and use any charger. Rent seeking third party chargers aren't a solution, just another layer of things that add complexity and middlemen. Like getting water inside an airport terminal.
Maybe one day you can make a video about price diffrence on superchargers? Plan a trip Oslo-Minsk in end of juli and see V2 in Falkenberg Sweden cost 4,30 SEK but only 20Km before V3 in Valberg. Sweden cost only 2,30 SEK .
I've tried to get access to circleK charging app, here from Germany. The app works only with a norwegian mobil nr. I think it's only possible for Norwegians. Isn't it?
Same problem here in UK, they really have to remove the apps, the RFID cards & subscriptions. It has to be simple. Make it simple!!! Contactless and that's it.
ABC, always be charging ;) For my car and most other EVs which top out around 100kW or below, I would choose the sure thing and not be afraid of loosing out too much without specific evidence/promise it would be my turn within 10 min. If you have an e-tron or another car that will consistently give ~150kW the savings are much better, but it does not help if the faster charger is being hogged by a VW e-Golf that is insisting on charging to 100%.
At 3:47 min, two cars are parked on or over the white line. Seems that would be more common when backing up, but both are facing forward. Perhaps they parked that way to avoid a backed-in car which was crowding their lane, but then everyone else will have to do the same, so it becomes a mess. Wifey would have a field day there, as she carries paper signs "You park like an ---hole" to put under the wiper of rude drivers.
Hi Bjorn, I have watched your videos from Thailand since MG in Thailand. Norwegian scenery and what you do in detail is educating me about using EVs and I thank you for that. Please may I ask who you would recommend to watch in the UK, which zap map is all I know and it seems UK infrastructure is poor compared to Norway. When are you going to do a Thai update on Thai infrastructure would be helpful I guess next year if Covid is controlled by then. Thank you in advance
Most EVs have already built in an identifier code that could be sent to the charger (software based) Essentially to work like a Tesla's supercharger. You only register once on the service provider of the charger and you could plug and charge automatically (no RFID needed) in any other charger of the brand. But aaaaalot more chargers will be needed for high demand time no doubt.
@@markparent7999 @Mark Parent It already exists and it's very easy to be implemented everywhere. For example autocharge from Fastned. It's just PLUG AND CHARGE system. I'm surprised the ninja EV guru @Bjørn Nyland never mentioned... 🤔🤔🤔
@@rogerstarkey5390 I don't know the details of the systems incorporated. But all that problems you mentioned, is just software based. All the chargers and cars have the potential to work on a plug and charge, base system.
I very sad for me seeing such development comparing it with ours. I spending my holidays in Estepona and we have 1 charging point. Next one is around 80 kms and I am not sure it will work. Spain is not even in the tail of the electric car industry.
You will find the Ioniq 5/ EV 6 large battery cars are the fastest charging cars on 350 kW/ 800V Ionity type chargers when doing a 10-80% recharge as the Hyundai has the best curves /superior BMS control. It has the best average energy delivery to the battery. Just compare the advertised and proven 18 minute time.
Super interesting content. As you know, EU has set the ban in 2035, which is also very close. Why cannot we just plug and charge? I mean, it would be great if each car had an ID during the handshake...
Question: Does tesla take supercharger utilization into account for route planing? For example, when two SC are near, using the one with more available stalls? (same question for v2 VS v3)
the number of fast chargers that are not for Tesla is far too few. In the end, when all cars become electric, there will be more cars that are not Tesla. So each charging station should have more chargers than Tesla has, to cover the future need. So there is a great need for expansion.
no need to have some politician to speed up the charging infra. Tesla will be public to all or most ev’s within the next 12 to 18 months. That will give a boost of thousands of extra stalls in Europe. If you look at the Netherlands (my country) they are building a ridiculous amount of v3 Tesla supercharger for such a small country. I was traveling last month to Italy and in Germany I can almost travel on v3 chargers alone. All brand new.
Maybe yes (and I hope so) that all CCS cars can go to the Tesla network. But I assume that we must buy a special card for charging at Tesla or pay a high price /kwh. (Tesla chargers are the cheapest, but buy buying a tesla you'll also invest in this network. A tesla is higher priced than VW, Hyundai for example. (Ionity asks 0,79 euro/kwh (when using their app). Maybe it will also force ionity to lower prices.
@@Simon-dm8zv besides the news article it is common sense. When you see the amount of v3 supercharger that are added in Netherlands alone. It is overpopulated with Tesla chargers. Also the Fiat group will stop buying the co2 rights from Tesla. A 1.5 billion deal that will be gone in 1 or 2 years. They need to make money quickly and that is why they expanding with V3 chargers worldwide. Every week there are between 1 and 4 new locations opening. Check google maps and lookup Tesla v3 super chargers. Look at the amount they have placed within a year. Lots of new stalls and way more then they need. Just one opened north of München. I believe 30 new V3 stalls. 1.5 km from an other 6 or 8 V2 stalls. Believe me they are expanding to open up to new customers.
In the Uk all new charges have to allow debit/credit card access.
Thank you, I wasn't aware of that. The frustration was building up on my side :)
Just did Denmark - Italy in my ID.4 and I was the ONLY one at Ionity the whole way down, and most of the way back! Did not expect that.
Man the volume of super chargers in Norway is insane, such a big brain play by Tesla.

Depends on the car

Was that blue Model X following you about?
I very sad for me seeing such development comparing it with ours. I spending my holidays in Estepona and we have 1 charging point. Next one is around 80 kms and I am not sure it will work. Spain is not even in the tail of the electric car industry.
finally, the ioniq 5 review is coming!
You will find the Ioniq 5/ EV 6 large battery cars are the fastest charging cars on 350 kW/ 800V Ionity type chargers when doing a 10-80% recharge as the Hyundai has the best curves /superior BMS control. It has the best average energy delivery to the battery. Just compare the advertised and proven 18 minute time.
Super interesting content. As you know, EU has set the ban in 2035, which is also very close. Why cannot we just plug and charge? I mean, it would be great if each car had an ID during the handshake...
Question: Does tesla take supercharger utilization into account for route planing? For example, when two SC are near, using the one with more available stalls? (same question for v2 VS v3)
It doesn't really at the moment.
The ionic 5 gained 5% in 1m 20s.
What kind of equipment do you recommend to order to a Samsung S10 regarding the "Scan my tesla app"?
That if you know to work?
the number of fast chargers that are not for Tesla is far too few. In the end, when all cars become electric, there will be more cars that are not Tesla. So each charging station should have more chargers than Tesla has, to cover the future need. So there is a great need for expansion.
EV revolution
Yeez, roadtrip to Brokelandsheia? :D
Bjorn - do you think Tesla should open up their network?
Haha, go to Alvdal or Dombås…#queue
It's Volkswagen, Mercedes, BMW, Nissan , and others that need to get their act together! (Not the government)
no need to have some politician to speed up the charging infra. Tesla will be public to all or most ev’s within the next 12 to 18 months. That will give a boost of thousands of extra stalls in Europe. If you look at the Netherlands (my country) they are building a ridiculous amount of v3 Tesla supercharger for such a small country. I was traveling last month to Italy and in Germany I can almost travel on v3 chargers alone. All brand new.
Maybe yes (and I hope so) that all CCS cars can go to the Tesla network. But I assume that we must buy a special card for charging at Tesla or pay a high price /kwh. (Tesla chargers are the cheapest, but buy buying a tesla you'll also invest in this network. A tesla is higher priced than VW, Hyundai for example. (Ionity asks 0,79 euro/kwh (when using their app).
Maybe it will also force ionity to lower prices.
‘Tesla will be open to all or most EVs within the next 12 to 18 months’ Where did you get this news?

@@Simon-dm8zv besides the news article it is common sense. When you see the amount of v3 supercharger that are added in Netherlands alone. It is overpopulated with Tesla chargers. Also the Fiat group will stop buying the co2 rights from Tesla. A 1.5 billion deal that will be gone in 1 or 2 years. They need to make money quickly and that is why they expanding with V3 chargers worldwide. Every week there are between 1 and 4 new locations opening. Check google maps and lookup Tesla v3 super chargers. Look at the amount they have placed within a year. Lots of new stalls and way more then they need. Just one opened north of München. I believe 30 new V3 stalls. 1.5 km from an other 6 or 8 V2 stalls.
Believe me they are expanding to open up to new customers.
