    As of now Tesla has reduced the price of the Model Y down to 50.000€ in Germany and Leasing has 0% interest.
    In my example Model Y is now 653€ per month

      Your results are a bit skewed, Tesla uses power at a charger to warm up or cool the battery if it is not in optimal condition. From experience it pulls anywhere from 500 W to 2 kW, so hard to tell how much extra power it pulled from the charger that didn't go to the battery.
      Other testers, like Byorn, use Scan my Tesla to see how much power goes where to get the actual kWh that goes into the battery.

For two cars with the same drag coefficient, the drag will be more for the vehicle with the larger frontal area, which is the CDA. ☮️ Both cars performed well in winter conditions, so the main takeaway is that new BEVs are practical in normal winter driving. 👍

    For me the consumption is not such important like the whole ecological footprint. And.. Tesla 3 for Europe is made whole in China, even Tesla Y from Berlin imports a considerable number of complaint parts from China and China is a country where 95% of electricity is from coal, where ecology is on the back burner and, above all, there are still reports from investigative journalists about poor working conditions at subcontractors. So is car from China "back to the future?" , no :-) The average European ev car gives 15 tons of CO2, in Chine it will be 20 and more tons because of very bad energy mix value.

    The DC charging consumption should be factored into the WLTP cycle somehow.
    Like efficiency during winter => total consumption with charging losses.
    Otherwise this information is not visible to users and car companies have no incentive to optimize for it.
    I am a Tesla owner and I like Telsa.
    But I find it unacceptable that for the exact same condition tesla will have 8-9% more charging losses due to heating up the battery actively (consuming 10 Kwh in the process).
    There should be a way to turn of the active heating during charging like Taycan offers. I would trade a few minutes of charging time for a few kwh better overall efficiency. It would also be the more sustainable trade-off.

      I am not that surprised of the outcome. Apart from a SUV being both taller AND further from the ground, the ID7 is 2WD no? And the Tesla 4WD. ID7 would lose vs the RWD Y, and even with RWD one should probably put the Tesla in low power/Chill mode to get on the same low HP-levels, that likely would lower consumption a bit more. The M3 RWD in chill mode would beat both ID7 and the MY considerably as well.

    It's a good result for an SUV/CUV, but considering both cars have the same drag coefficient (0.23) and that the Model Y is lighter and has a heat pump, the Model Y should have had a lower consumption. So VW did something else better than Tesla - drivetrain, software, motor or whatever - so kudos to them.
    Regarding consumption with charging loss, the ID.7 had 236 Wh/km at charger and 208 Wh/km on the car display so +13.5%. MY had 259 on charger and 212 on car display, so +22.2%. Both cars show big differences, but the MY difference is huge. Teslas now seem more and more like Chinese products, way more out of paper/display specs than the Western/Japanese brands.
    LE: the MY does have an extra motor which probably causes friction which increases the consumption a bit + probably the MY has a higher frontal area (which is not considered in the drag coefficient) which also increases the consumption. Both seem to explain the difference, so I can't really say if VW did actually something better than Tesla, but being on par with Tesla is already a big achievement :)

      The drag coefficient is not telling you the whole story about aero efficiency. The drag is proportional with the frontal area as well. So even though the drag coefficient is the same for thw two cars, the frontal area may be bigger on the Model Y, hence the slight higher consumption.
      Also, if the cars started the journey with hot batteries, that should give Tesla and advantage because of the super efficent octo valve system and heat leaching tech.

    Thank you for this real world comparison!
    11:17 I guess Tesla uses the battery to not only charge electrical energy but also thermal energy. As they use the additional battery heat to heat up the cabin when on the road again, they can achieve a higher real world range in cold conditions.

    Thanks for a good video. Interesting that consumption is so similar between the cars. I will soon return my ID.4 and have been thinking about an ID.7 as my next car but right now it feels like a MY is a better choice. In Sweden ID.7 costs more than MY especially if the cars are about the same equipment level. In Tesla you can basically not opt out of any equipment, but in ID.7 you can which can makes it cheaper but at the same time "more boring". A big advantage for MY is the huge cargo space.

      Yes, Teslas heat up battery to around 50c when fast charging. It does add more cost to charging. But one important fact is not known in the video:
      In cold weather, you should start the journey with Teslas from a charge session! That way, you will have heat in batteries to scavenge with octovalve. That helps a lot with consumption in winter...

    I remember you reporting on the increased charging "loss" of Teslas a while ago. You had a table if I recall, showing consistently high overcharging... This is due to the car powering its heaters and motors - using the motors as heaters - or something....so after charging the Model Y would probably be more efficient. I think. I thinks its this reason why Tesla's generally suck on a 50kW charger because 10-12kW of power is diverted to the heating and on 37kW goes to the battery.

      Dual motor MY/3 use max 7 kW for heating the battery, not 10-12 kW. That has been many times verified using Scan My Tesla, myself included.
      The reason for seeing 37 kW going to battery is due to 50 kW being limited to 125A, so with relatively low pack voltage cars like these Teslas and all MEB 77 kWh cars, the actual charging power is significantly below 50 kW especially when the battery is low.

    Very nice comparison and actually does fit because tge id7 is a little between Model 3 and S and does have way bigger Trunk than Model 3 but way cheaper than Model S. I just wished you would have pre heated both cars, because i think the Model Y did Heat the Battery more on the charger which is why it showed so much difference. I'm getting like 4% difference on Tesla Supercharger. Rumors say Superchargers do charge Teslas not all losses like other chargers, don't know about that for sure, but that's what i pay. Also to even things out would be good to use the Aerocaps on the Model Y and no heater at all to get more even

      ​​@@BatteryLife Early this year my 2023 Model Y Lr always preheated the Battery to over 30°C if i let it long enough. Since a few month there was an Update with what the car seems to guess if it should preheat the Battery to more than about 13°C. So if i charge it to 80% with AC i can preheat all day long, it never gets to more than 13°C. Last time i send the car a Destination with the App about 250km away and charged it to 100% Ac and preheated it an hour and the Battery showed 38°C. I don't like it very much that i have not much controll if the car preheats or not from home, although the one time i needed it it did. My guess is that the Battery of the Model Y was colder although it said it is finished preheating. Of course you can say that is the cars fould. And your partially right, but at 36% it should have charged way faster, so you can see that the Battery was cold, maybe also on id7 where you can manually set preheating right? Can you do that also from the App?

      @@D00MINIK If the cars were preheated to the same battery temperature before the drive, the Tesla with its heat pump would have used the heat energy in the battery to warm up the cabin more efficiently. So without a preheating before the second charging session, I expect the MY's battery to be colder than the ID.7's.
      While this makes sense to maximize range (less energy used for heating the cabin) it makes it (even more) necessary to preheat the battery for charging stops (costing range again). The temperature Tesla likes to heat their batteries to during the charging stop is also much higher that for most other brands.
      I have always wondered how these huge swings in battery temperature in Teslas impact total used energy, incl. charging "losses", especially in winter. Unfortunately most other reviewers (e.g. Bjørn with his hard-core winter tests) don't report the energy pulled from the charger most of the time, but I can't believe it's the most energy-efficient way to get around. Maybe in total it's faster and that's why they do it.

    • @D00MINIK
      @D00MINIK 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes i think it's because Teslas are built to block Fast Chargers as short as possible. But this Test doesn't represent charging losses. At Tesla supercharger with warm Battery you have around 4% which would be less than this id7 in this Test, but this did maybe also a little Battery Heating and that's why the only accurate way to do such a Test is to charge at the end with an AC charger which showes the Energy or you do a real Road Trip where the Car knows in the SatNav what you plan and can adjust to that.

    I think I might have figured out the cutoff-line issue of ID.7's new headlight:
    It is using a completely different and new cutoff-line shape from previous VW cars like Passat and ID.4, to follow the newest regulations.
    Previously the right side of the cutoff-line is always higher than the left side by a little, and the height is exactly the same of the height of the elbow shape in the middle.
    However in the new shape, both side are mostly the same height, and the elbow shape becomes larger in height and shorter longitudinally.

      Yeah that's Bullshit. Only difference was that the id7 preheated the Battery more before the Test and not at the charging after because it was said to do so and in the Tesla you cannot manually press a Button, you have to send it a Location where it knows it has to charge and so does preheat to a higher Temp and also you cannot plug it into a Fast Charger and tell it not to Preheat the Battery as fast as it can what-for it uses inefficient ressistant heating because Heat Pump alone would take longer. This is not always ideal, like in such a Tests, but Teslas where built so that you cannot block a Fast Charger longer than necessary intentionally. So if you wanna measure charging losses you have either to verify that all cars have the exact same Battery Temperature or plug it into an AC.
      The Austrian Car Club Öamtc did a Test on Ac 11kw and Tesla was actually the one with the least charging losses of 6,7% which is exactly what i have in difference from displayed to charged on my 11kw AC from my Model Y. Also on Superchargers when you arrive with a warm Battery, you have constantly only 4% loss.

      8,79 %

This is the reason why VW IDs have a ridiculous short trip consumption compared to Tesla. But they say not heating up the battery will reduce the life time a lot. Tesla says it does not, you can choose who you will trust. Both use basically the same battery cells.
      If plugged in both heat up the battery and the VW uses even more KW than MY because it has a much stronger heater. The only measure you can trust is a third party charger. Teslas range is always off reality although they were forced recently to adjust it.

I think maybe it would have been possible to decrease the charging speed in the Tesla and so decrease the heating as it wasn't a supercharger, but i'm not sure about that. It would have been interesting to know the battery temperatures of the cars after the charging session. Because 4% Loss at a Tesla Supercharger is common with a warm Battery.
      Btw.: Both cars where preheated with the App, he told me that. But he also said the id7 preheated much longer after MY said finished, and as i know Tesla doesn't preheat the Battery much if it doesn't think it does a long trip.

    You simply cannot trust the consumption figures displayed on Tesla's screen. There is always something odd when you see range tests with a Tesla - the numbers just don't get along with the battery size. You notice this difference when you charge back to 100%. I would say it under reports by roughly 10%, so you always need to add 10% to the figures displayed on the screen when looking at range test videos, unless they charge back to 100% or initial SOC to see how much the car really consumed. Tesla cars are still the most efficient cars in their categories / price range by a consistent margin, but it needs to be taken into consideration. Both the ID7 and the MY have a relatively similar Cx, but the drag coefficient also has to include the frontal surface (SCx). The MY has more frontal surface for sure. It is still an amazing performance for such a big SUV!
