    Norway seems to have a lot of pull through style charging stations watching Bjorn's videos. USA chargers should be designed similarly

    Pretty awesome. Seems perfectly fine for towing. I can't wait to see the EV9 rustic ring test.

    Model X was so popular in Norway in the beginning, due to being one of the first EVs that could really tow at all. Model S didn't allow for it, in the beginning. It still has a really competitive rated towing limit here in Europe!

    Supercharger Towing: The supercharger layout should be like the Baker, CA Station. Massive PV above all pull-through stalls.

    Been Jonesing for this one since I saw a few quick clips of the X towing in another intro to one of your videos. We have Plaidington's twin (except for a yoke) so we're a little biased but, typical OOS video with the good, bad and everything in-between. Yes, there's power for days with the Plaid but glad to hear it's relatively compliant with towing its max weight and the whole team created a great video. Thanks Kyle!

    On our 2016 MX, it prevents you from disabling Trailer Mode if the weight is large enough. Our 2700lb RV is heavy enough to prevent disabling. A half empty 4x8 U-Haul utility trailer is fine to turn off trailer mode.

    • @mysterious1818
      @mysterious1818 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      My 2016 MX doesn't prevent me from disabling Trailer Mode with my travel trailer that weighs in around 4000+ lbs. I'm surprised it's different than yours.

    I'd love to see how the regen on the cybertruck does at equivalent gross weight. Could be a good indication of whats going on behind the scenes with the regen limits. I anticipate Tesla will improve the vehicle dynamics, including regen, on the cybertruck over the next 2-3 years as more data is collected.

    • @SyntheticSpy
      @SyntheticSpy 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Considering they have improvements to the charge curve coming soon, I think the regen is potentially limited for the same reason. Hopefully it improves over time like you said

    • @KaceyGreen
      @KaceyGreen 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      My "Legacy" P100D also comes up with humorous explanations for what is following us, but later versions of the software do a decent job of filtering it out altogether.

    • @KaceyGreen
      @KaceyGreen 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      that AP thing has been in there for years at least on legacy, I'm not ready to try that since I'm still on warranty and the scare stuff they told us back in the day about towing with an aftermarket hitch without first getting the towing software. I have had two phantom braking events while towing, but my car has rarely had phantom braking less than a dozen incidents ever that I can recall.

    18:51 A front charge port does not solve this problem either. You're a vehicle with a trailer, you can't just pull in with a trailer sticking out 20 plus feet into the parking lot. That's not a viable long term solution.
    EV charging stations are designed fundamentally wrong. They should have been built like Islands, like every single gas station in existence. They decided to save money and now it doesn't scale.

      Would be a great option and you could maybe use a USB stick to save all the maps as the on board computer probably can’t save everything.

    Hello Kyle,
    I'm going to be getting a Model X in the near future. I'm going to be towing from time to time, and here's a question that I've asked Tesla for which they had no answer. To me it seems logical that the tri-motor 1082hp configuration in the Plaid would be more efficient than the dual-motor 600hp. What are your thoughts?

    It can't be stressed enough to NEVER use Autopilot while towing. Ever. For any reason. Regardless of how 'on it' you think you are.....NEVER. You are risking your load, your life, and the life of others on the road.
