Really nice test and stunning landscapes around Innsbruck! Thank you for sharing!⚡🔌🚘
Thank you for watching! ;)
Nicely done! Would it help further to change drive mode from D to N during the descent? (Not sure if it's possible to do while driving or if it requires holding the brake like D/R switching does).
Thanks. Personally I wouldn't recommend using N while the car is moving (based on what mechanics told me), as some functions (mainly safety) only work when in one of the Drive-Modes.
why is half of the scren censored?
Only thing about this is that car display consumption it showing incorrect kwh/100km. If you use obd diagnostic then you can see this. If you start with 40kWh in battery, and you drive 100km, and car is showin you consumption of 20kWh/100km, then you should have 20 left in the battery. But when you read ObD diagnostic it will show you ALWAYS less energy in the battery then 20kWh. So please use OBD and car scanner or power cruise control to get accurate results
Hi Roman, as most users of this car don't use OBD-Diagnostics and solely rely on the BC I'm more than happy to do it this way to get results which might not be perfectly accurate in a physical sense but comparable for any regular user of the car.
@@ecodriver1746 well its not comparable if you compare it with car that shows correct consumption. Then one may think C4 is using less energy then this comparable car, but it uses more and just shows less on the dash.
Roman Roman: That's strange, I will check that out with my OBD. When Bjorn was testing e-C4's total range, it corresponded with the result from the trip computer. Even though he had older infotainment version which showed "--" range when battery dropped below 12.5% and he bailed out :D
@@Memosis acctually he calculated total range with 12% from the dash. But this 12% from the dash is wrong. He calculated range like this = driven range + soc left in bat (on the dash). Try it
@@RomanRoman-xi3dv Will do. When I tested that red battery level, it looked normal on the dashboard - at 13% I had 24 km remaining, drove another 10 kilometers on Eco in the city and ended with 9% and 16 km remaining.
And when shortly testing OBD several days ago it showed me 46.05% SoC with claimed capacity left of 19.88kWh, that would mean 43.17kWh total available capacity. But I will do more tests if this changes for various SoC levels and/or temperature.
I's a good, nice looking car but not the best EV. No long range option, very few information from the computer, extremely high consumption at real highway speed. Perfect for everyday home-work use, not the best long trip companion. Nice test, thanx.
You're perfectly right in everything you say. ;)
Thank you!
I would say average consumption at highway speed (even in winter I had around 23-24 kWh at 130 km/h), but the biggest drawback is aggressive heating of the battery in winter. I have a garage which stays at least 12° C even in winter and that helps a lot so my city commute is around 15 kWh in cold, now 13 kWh with temperatures around 7° C.
But when the car freezes out you can see the heating at MAX (consumption shown as 50kWh/100) and that's a killer. Switching to Eco mode limits this power input, but the cabin heating might be inadequate (I have heated steering wheel and seats so that's no problem even if outside is below zero).
"Vehicles that can coast without regenerating"
All vehicles can: just put the gearbox selector to Neutral!
There's no gearbox in electric car.
@@SuperAti15Yes there is.
It has one forward gear and one reverse gear.
It is used to reduce the high rpm of the electric motor to drive the wheels
