ABRP's reference consumption at 110km/h for the e-Soul 64 is 212 Wh/km, which is WAY too high. ABRP lately has a tendency of overly going the safe way plus 10% plus I don't know what ... and it also always sets a default of 5% battery degradation, which simply doesn't fit for almost new (upto some 10.000km) cars which have a BMS, that hides a safety amount of capacity. When I try around ABRP with cars I don't have data for, I usually use EVcal (ecalc dot ch slash evcalc dot php), select the car inquestion, hit "berechnen" (might have other languages available) and get 188 Wh/km for the "Soul EV Long Range 2019", as they call it. And usually, I can substract 10+% from that. E.g. for my Hyundai Ioniq 28, setting tire pressure to "higher", I get 151 Wh/km in EVcalc, while in reality ABRP live data calculates 133 Wh/km for my real car, stock tires, presure set to 2.8 rather than (specced) 2.4 bar. Fun fact: ABRP sets the default ref consumption for the Ioniq 28 to 151 aswell, while seeting it to 163 for the Ioniq 38, which in fact doesn't slurp eny more electrons than the older version. Well ... Anyway, ABRP is the greatest of all EV route and charging planning tools, just one has to find their own ways to deal with the "safety" measures (for unexperienced users) coded into it. Now I'll have to watch your viedeo again (thumbs up already), as I was typing almost the whole video ^^
I'm a bit confused about the Temp column in your spreadsheet - does the temperature for the Polestar 2 run really vary between -11 and 4 degrees Celsius, or do you mean -11 and -4 degrees Celsius? Maybe split those values into min and max temp or use something else than "-" as separator (ie. "-11 to -4" instead of "-11--4").
I drive this route often with a Kia e-Soul 64 kwh. You have to start with 100% and charge to max 65 - 70 % along the way (Don`t go under 20%). Drive speedlimit + 10%. Thats the fastets way. You lose time if you charge over 70%
I don’t necessarily agree.. if you watch the video we had a charge time of five minutes less than what ABRP estimated with three charging stops. Further we saved even more time not stopping a third time. So the time spent charging over 65-70% we basically made up with not having to do that last stop. Of course going to 100% is best, but that is why we subtracted that time at the end of the trip 😊
Depends on how many times you have to stop and charge and how far the chargers are from your main route. If you only gain for example 10 minutes because of faster charging, the time spent doing a detour and connecting to a charger may outweighs the gains in speed 😉
Good video👍 I don't think tesla model 3 is the most efficient car on sale today, the ioniq 38 kwh is more efficient, but unfortunately doesn't charge fast enough 👎👎
@@KrisRifa that sounds like you should do a test👍 from my experience, it's the ioniq that's more efficient, but if I'm wrong I shall gladly change my opinion 😊😊👍
The Norwegian high speed is not real in the uk on the motor I am normally sitting a at 124kph with cruise on very really going below 110kph. This is a more realistic Europe speed test. You drive so slow in 🇳🇴 Norway
The KIA E SOUL IS REALLY A SUPERCAR. I HAVE ONE. 100% super super super.
Hi 🙋♂️ Kris nice video once again....keep them coming!
Thanks!
Really cool vid !! Love your tests !! Keep it up !! Hope you can test the ID.4 soon :=)
Greetings XD
Thanks mate! Still waiting for VW to give me a date for the ID.4 😊

Sorry, yeah I can improve that! Yes in the P2 it was from -11 too -4 😊
I am interested in buying a new BMW i3 2020 or 2021 I would love to get a review and a test vehicle review
Did you set consumption to 15,5kwh at 110kph in A Better Routeplaner? ABRP initially calculates with 22kwh/100 kph summer consumption
So, about 300km at 110km/h?
Hej Chris! Can you do a range test on the 39kw version? Great video and new sub here

Drive fast and charge often, thats the fastest way to drive electrik ;-)

@@KrisRifa
On this route.
" (Don`t go under 20%)" Why? I would go near to 5%
When you are going to review bmw ix3?
Hei Kris, meget bra innhold, men husk forskjellen på very og worry, du sier worry men mener garantert very, lykke til med kanalen
Good video👍 I don't think tesla model 3 is the most efficient car on sale today, the ioniq 38 kwh is more efficient, but unfortunately doesn't charge fast enough 👎👎
From tests I have seen the Model 3 LR with heat pump is slightly more efficient than the Ioniq 38kWh 😊
@@KrisRifa that sounds like you should do a test👍 from my experience, it's the ioniq that's more efficient, but if I'm wrong I shall gladly change my opinion 😊😊👍
@@RandomRockyCX Yes it does! Will try to do that in the future 😊
@@KrisRifa nice 👍 keep up the good work, i enjoy your videos a lot!! 👍👍
Thanks for the test. I like the box Design. But for me Kia failed in the interior. Nevertheless it is a good ev.
I agree! Watch the video that drops tomorrow, where I talk about that in more detail 😊
Its weird how the sould can be so efficient?!?!? :)
Its a very bricky shape.
