@@foudremy1514 The heat pump does not help in hot climates. It helps in cold climates to heat more efficient. With all components wanting cooling, there is no advantage in a heat pump.
@@danielrose1392 It has heat scavenging, so it could help if you heat up the cabin. Just like it would help when you heat up the cabin in a fossil car.
Drove to Furnace Creek/Bad Water in 2019 in a rental Dodge mini-van. Temperatures hit 122F. The rental was almost overheating on the drive out so we had drive around 40mph AC off windows down. On the down hill the brakes caused a wicked vibration that went away after temperatures drop back below 110F. Had the same reaction you did when we got to the first gas station outside of Death Valley. No car, ICE or EV, does well in Death Valley.
pretty sure plenty of gas cars have issues in death valley.. 125F is a seriously dangerous level of heat. The fact that the car made it through is awesome.
Most car manufacturers actually test cars in DV, Phoenix area, or Middle East in the Summer to test cooling system, and A/C performance. Newer, and well maintained cars have no issues there even when it's 125 or warmer. Needles, California and Bullhead City, AZ are very close to DV temps in Summer, and people live there with no problem
I've driven my EV several times in high heat, only issue i've noticed is that the Tritium units from ChargePoint can get kinda wonky. No issues with ABB. Glad to see that the Superchargers still work! Prolly wouldn't have had a power limit if you hadn't launched it lol
hi everyone i am a very small youtube and i spend a lot of time working on my videos, and if you chose to subscribe it would mean the world to me!!! have a good day you are all beautiful
I think the heating problems were more to due with your Model X being a pre-raven version. The raven Model X made significant imporvements in thermal and cooling solution! also Model 3/Y handle extreme weather much better too due to them having more range 310+ and better cooling/ heating systems.
I know the titles have to be made this way to "get" the algorithm working but nothing here shouted deal breaker when this was planned. Almost any car will have challenges in DV so it's cool to see that the Tesla made it through! Long term damage though is hard to tell until analysis later on. Happy you got to see the 131 F in the other video and got back safely!
have cooling coils surround the batteries to extend battery life in hot or cold temperatures? i'd waited until dark and left when it was cooler on a fully charged battery.
Tesla batts are liquid cooled using a heat pump but everything has limits and he obviously reached it in Death Valley. The same Heat Pump cools the battery, motors, inverter and the cabin.
128 Deg. is not excessive here. In summer it is commonly 115 - 118 in the shade daily with nights in the 95 degree range. My biggest question is how a Tesla would work in my area - I really want one but fear the battery will both have daily temperature issues and the life of the battery will be very negatively effected. A/C is essential both summer and often in the winter also. I have seen some Teslas, but not many.
When I went to Las Vegas a couple years ago i saw a ton of drunk people and some old man was with his wife and told us to move away from her. It was like a faucet it never stopped, and that was in broad daylight while I was watching a magic trick
Would totally have made it to vegas directly... Just drive a little slower and direct the vent to you. You made it sound so bad... It feels like u work for big oil :o
Good video Dan! This is proof that I'll want to have another vehicle other than a Tesla if I do a road trip in any extreme weather or temperatures. Maybe that Mercedes car you drove at one point might handle better or the badger by Nikola Motors. Thanks for making this video Dan and Hunter. Dan continue to do the crazy/dumb stuff.
Thank you!! I live in Phoenix, sick of cold weather reviews (like all of them) - thanks for answering the questions sun belt customers have that go unanswered
“I’ll never drive my Tesla in Extreme temperatures again” because I can’t drive 80 in a 45 going up hill and launch the car with out running out of battery…my model 3 has gone through Death Valley before no problems. Also there are J1772 in the National park. It’s slow but you do have options. This is just a misleading video all the way around.
It's a matter of basic physics, increased energy increases entropy, not only does the increased temperature decrease range but it will shorten the lifespan of the battery.
It will be interesting to see how the new Octovalve and Compressor combo handles heat like this. The Rivian R1T did exceptionally well towing that 30ft 11,000 pound trailer on the Davis Dam test during 118f temperatures over 11.4 miles and 2,950 ft elevation rise. Though there is more info to be released like range reduction details, the bar has been set for the Cybertruck to match now :) Hopefully tomorrow on Battery Day we will get some treats of informations provided to us all
@@stevenwatson3496 Yup, diesel is the way to go for now if you need longer range or charging times are an issue. Battery energy density is ramping up fast and next years batteries will be able to charge to 80% in 5mins. Cheaper tech than most of today's too. Towing eats about 50% range, an aero trailer is key for electric and overall towing efficiency, but once range is 700 to 1000km electric will be the way to go. Cars already have that range today. Trucks next year+
@@OniMetsuki not sure I would say they are going to be better that soon. Here in texas EV’s are not taking the heat well and most of the state has been advised not to charge between 3pm-8pm due to stress on the grid. These are fairly new. Many more problems will surface I’m sure.
Wait, a hotel is nice because they are offering you a place to stay if you need it? Not like getting people to stay at your hotel is a key component to success.
Though you should keep in mind that petrol cars are (also) susceptible to overheating in the same extreme temperatures and that using the air con consumes fuel when traveling at highway speeds.
Even in a gas car who would blast their ac in 130 for prolong times. And how lucky are you for having that adapter handy. Last, first time there and didn't stop at the Area 51 store. Shame. Enjoyed video very much. Thank you
That very much seems like a manufacturing issue. The car's electronics should be made to withstand those temperatures. 150 isn't a great on electronics but it shouldn't course failure. My guess is something is getting very hot underneath, that the desert heat is adding to and coursing premature failure, or it's failing due to insufficient materials. The battery could definitely be suffering too if it lacks in cooling capacity as Lithium is sensitive to temperature.
Wait, so your almost out of charge, and you decide to floor it and waste more energy that you coulda used to get to the charger.. if you ended up stranded you’d have no one to blame but yourself
We went on a roadtrip as tourists through death valley at 118-120 degeee fahrenheit in 2018 with a rental Model3 LR RWD... no issues at all. We have driven a lot of Tesla back here in Sweden. You seem inexperienced with Tesla-roadtrips and you still seem to have a lot of range anxiety... surprised me since you have been doing Tesla content for quite a while. Learn to use the energy graph and calculate range, you definitely won't be this worried. We drive in -22° fahrenheit in the winter and we are never worried about range anxiety.
