Keep the Doi Ang Khang tests up, Bjorn. They’re a valuable guide on how well particular EVs cope with being put under duress.
I do enjoy the hill climb videos. It does show the car in "heavy" use and how it responds to the extra heating due to current draw and the shedding of heat on a long downhill.
Bjorn, your videos shot in Thailand make an interesting contrast with those from Norway , which is part of what keeps me coming back to your channel. If the EV copes without drama over your mountain test route it is still enjoyable for me to watch just to view the scenery.
Keep up this Hill Climb Test Bjorn. It is super interesting. Do you have by any chance taken the FLIR Camera to Thailand. Would have been awesome to see how hot the drivetrain and brakes are after the Test.
Fantastic ride up the mountain, enjoyed it, tells a lot about EV capabilities, ABC- a beautiful climb!
Interesting test. Battery went down from 49% to 35% and back to 41%. 6% charged/14% discharged - that gives roughly 43% recovery rate. It would be interesting to know how different cars perform in this matter.
How good performs tesla!?!
@@Pecky138 Depends. Around 60%, I think. Don't forget you're still covering some distance, so you'll never get to 100%. Some German guy recently did a test driving up a mountain then back down. The Porsche Taycan he used had a total consumption of 21.4 kWh/100km. That's a good value, IMHO.
100% is impossible not because of the distance travelled (look at Work-Energy Theorem) but because of the wind resistance and change of speed (acceleration)
tesla does better recovery because of the good aero dynamics. but the Atto3 does surprisingly well too!!! 😂
the energy lost fighting the wind resistance and accelerating that heavy car can never be regained on the trip back down.
there is also small losses in the wires, motors, tires. but they are minimal
The fact that you were able to take back 6% of battery charge just by regen is really impressive !
I enjoy these tests Bjorn. We have had our Atto3 for 3 weeks now and living in a hilly city, it is a marvellous thing-more of a four wheeled robot than a car. Our weekly fuel cost has dropped from $70 to $6.We were told by the dealer that the battery cooling system in the vehicle is only for ambient control. Basically if the ambient temp is below -10C or above 40C, the heat pump will cool or heat the battery as required.
Keep these tests, they are pretty interesting as ev review and also the landscape and so on. We do enjoy it!!
I'm from France where there is a roundabout every 300 meters.
People not using their turn signal is a real problem. And force you to stop, even when their not coming your way
Its worth watching just for the beautiful landscape's, so don't give up on your European audience. I have only been in Thailand twice and always at the coast. To see a little of the mountains is very nice.
Many Thanks.
myself. i do like this shit. good to see thai hills and green. more please
ABC =Always Be Climbing. Keep the test.
This is a valuable English language video Bjorn, please keep making English language videos on BYD and other Chinese brands for those of us in Australia and other countries that have these brands available. There will also be more BYD, MG, LDV, Polestar, Volvo and other Chinese brands sold worldwide soon. Your method gives good comparisons and valuable real-world data in individual models. Love your work!
Keep all the Thai vids going in English! Left Thailand a year ago after living there for over 20 years, love seeing the Thai vids, reminds me of the good times I had there, especially the food!
As with the others Bjorn, I like the hill climb videos to see efficiency and recovery of energy, as I live in a very hilly area, so it's nice to see how the cars perform with a bit of stress !!! 😎
More! More! I've watched 100s of hours of EV videos and you always teach me more! I didn't realize fully about regen limits.
I like this, the scenery is awesome! Also, seeing how much you can regenerate is a cool test
Keep doing this test - I think it's a great addition, more scenic and informative
Enjoyed it a lot! Makes me miss Thailand. Used to go there for work... Björn makes a pretty important observation. Even a cheapish EV zips up the mountain just like that. Take home message, most people dont need a freakin Taycan or Tesla S Plaid. The EV drivetrain in itself rocks. Great in winter too with ice, snow etc in MHO.
Keep it up Björn!!!
Yes. And altitude has no effect on kW output from the motor...
Bjorn, I enjoyed this video, it was like EV ASMR.
Ps. I own an Atto 3 and I love it, way better than the MG.
The light in this video has a videogame vibe, specially at the beginning!
Yes, keep the hill climb tests. I don't think any other reviewers do this so it's valuable information. I seem to rememember that when you ran the ORA Cat you had some sort of a problem on the hill climb test.
I hope BYD will watch your tests of ATTO 3.
"I have the money ready." 😎
This is a great hill for testing EVs. Thailand is such a wonderful part of the world, thanks for a view of the real countryside, its so beautiful.
The thing with all your videos is that the information gathered is cumulative. Every car you drive in a particular "challenge" contributes to our knowledge of just how good or not so good ev's are at doing various tasks.
Inevitably some videos may seem boring to a few because the vehicle being tested is eminently suited to the task and therefore nothing exciting happens but the information it contributes is still valuable.
However I never find your videos at all boring because the landscape in which you drive is so enchanting and beautiful. I particularly enjoy these mountain climbs for the technicalities about the car's performance, the glorious surroundings and also the sense of jeopardy...hey *anything* could happen, right?!
Keep up the good work Bjørn, try not to chase views, just concentrate on quality and the views will follow, as you well know. There's always people like me out there who have a busy spell and have to catch up later, but I always go back and watch them in order for context.
Enjoyed it, thank you.👍👏
YO Bjorn this great work keep doing these test on slopes or high mountainous roads this will help some of us that travel in such condition on which EV is more efficient to drive on a an incline route.
This hill climb video was great, all of your videos are great. Keep the English videos of all types coming.
It was like a nice tourist trip for me watching this, but also leaned about The BYD ❤
I'm thai but i wacth Eng version.
I like it. It is a worthy test. So good to.see this more modest car pass the test with flying colours. For me, here in eastern central Europe it is reasurring and encouaging to appreciate Thailand again.
Your south American followers appreciate this kind of video. Very similar weather and terrain to what we find here.
BYD are an Engineering company originally I am sure they will develop the software fairly quickly - these video's are interesting keep it up it is a decent test :)
Please continue doing this test, it's very interisting.
Mach weiter so, Bjoern! The Videos from Thailand are very useful. Please do a lot of outside and road views! Thank you from Germany!
Hey Bjorn please come visit us in Kuala Lumpur, we can try the new Kempower chargers on your way to meet fans in Singapore 😁
I think it is interesting to see how it regens downhill.
I like the hill climb videos. This is good exposure to cars that are not now or at least not yet available in the US.
I love this kind of content. I might live in Sweden but I travel sometimes to Chile. Twisty, hill, valleys and sheeeeet.
Here in Korea, I am also interested in the conditions of EVs in summer.
In summer it rises up to 36C°, While it goes down to -20C° in winter.
It's interesting to see cars from all different markets.
I like this test. Very interesting for people living near mountains.
Love these tests Bjorn!
its so nice to see those landscapes and nice colours, liked the video very much!
Interesting to watch from so far away!
keep them coming please
Please keep making these videos. I thought that after I got my EV I would be bored watching EV videos but not so. Your videos plus the ones from Best In Tesla and others help to fight the FUD about EVs. The fact that you do 1000km challenges, charging challenges, cold weather driving, parking over night in the cold and your Artic runs...are a great tutorial for those wondering how EVs perform in various conditions.
Far too often we here in the US encounter so many people who live in their own political echo chamber spouting out misinformation about EVs but what we find more often than not is they've never driven an EV let alone ever have they even been in one but spout out nonsense as if they're some sort of expert on the subject.
The fact that you take the time to test as many cars etc. as you can get your hands on and compile the data for us all to see is a great tool for many of us to fight back at so much bad info surrounding EVs. Best In Tesla did a cold weather trip similar to yours in his 3 or 4 year old Model 3 and what he showed, just as you have, is it's not the problem most think it is to have an EV in some of the most extreme conditions on the planet.
So keep making these videos and keep up the good work. We really do appreciate all that you're doing.
I think it is very interesting to see more of Thailand and see how different EV's behave as well as seeing different EV's available .
This one is valuable for people living in countries like Switzerland so please record in English too :-)
I think, this video would be watched by way more people, if you pointed out in the name that this is not just driving but some kind of survival or reliability test of the car.
Good idea.
man! when you capture parameters, doing excel & testing all things it's very informative! thank you so much
I quite like this test, especially when you encounter mad van drivers mid corner. We want a bit of excitement. I'd like to see you take one of those baby electric cars up there, see how that performs.
Don't forget about your other asians viewer and I am from malaysia & I really love to watch the journey in thailand highway & hill climb...I think your others asian viewer also love to watch the hill climb in ev
I love your Thailand videos. Please keep them coming.
Now I want a winter test of this car!
Watching From Australia, Picking our red Atto next week, ur soo funny! Thanks for the laugh! :)
Really enjoying the Thai videos - and I can't watch enough massive regen mountain descents, particularly in great scenery.
Totally enjoyed this video. Happy to watch more. ☺
I was in a similar situation just 10 days ago while i was on a holiday in Mauritius, on most likely the twistiest and steepest road of the island. And yes it kinda looked like that road in Thailand with the greenery and stuff. It's an 11 km stretch of road between Case Noyale and Black River Gorges National Park, with an elevation gain of 650m. Unfortunately they weren't renting out electric vehicles, but even with a fossil car the road increased fuel consumption with at least 50%. Probably next time i'll be travelling that they start renting out electric cars, just like what islands need. No range anxiety, it's about 70 km across.
Don’t stop doing what you are doing! Very interesting.
Do not drive with Circulation On for long periods. Your body needs oxygen to function. You can test it with CO2 meter. With circulation on it will show you are breathing your own farts and CO2 level will be over the limit. And you will feel lightheaded etc. Anyway, to answer your question hill climb videos are awesome. They show how car behaves under stress and you also test how good handling and regen are. I'm watching from Australia.
I guess you have never been in Asia before. Rule #1 here is to always recirculate because of pollution and PM 2.5 levels.
@@bjornnyland You got me! I've never been there. But that's crazy. I only turn it on when driving behind a smelly vehicle, and quickly turn it off when there is a chance to get fresh air in. When I forget to turn it off and drive like this for a while, I feel weird. You mentioned bad driving in Thai. Could it be because of lack of oxygen?
Keep on doing those kind of tests. It's super interesting to see how much energy you invest uphill and what you can recover on the way down. Do you have statistics about that?
That weight conversion is spot on.
Enjoyed the drive! Your commentary was useful. The upshot seems to be a good car with poor software?
I had some Heat issues With my e208 Last Summer. Did a 800km Trip with 4 HPC charging sessions and car Broke down. Battery needed to be replaced. So Heavy Summer usage is also very interesting for me to Watch. Just like the „chargegate“ With i4 m50 in Germany.
From a New Zealand (a reasonably mountainous country) perspective its useful to know how an EV will cope with the slopes. With my Model 3 LFP, I have encountered similar regen limits that you saw on the longer downhills (which is not ideal but understandable). I have found that if you need the efficiency (energy recovery) then you can go down hill a lot slower and then the limits don't come into play as much.
I would like maximum regen. I like the stress test as I'm from Australia and heat is the enemy of efficiency.
Enjoy the hill climbs, the regen numbers are quite interesting, saw up to 90 on the regen. Scenery is amazing.
I like these videos. It is a nice escape from the -28 C Canadian winter hellscape I am experiencing right now. 🥶
The BYD Atto 3 has plenty of go!
Great job BYD. EVs are so great with proper cooling and regenerative braking. Driven I-5 myself through Grapevine was interesting. Tesla Semi was also driven over this during their 500 mile run.
Everyone cuts corners here. It has become so bad. I was always taught to square my corners. One of my big gripes about FSD Beta is that it cuts into the opposing traffic lanes on left turns. It can also cut into another lane when multiple turn lanes, people are the worst. My patience has become so short with people when driving.
Bjorn Thailand roads and landscape are pretty similar with Myanmar, especially with Shan State which is adjacent to Northern Thailand. I was born and grew up in Shan State, so these landscapes are pretty familiar with me 😀😀😀😀
Hi Björn,
here is your 👍🏻 for Hill-Climb-Videos.😁
I think this is very interesting because it shows a border case for car use that will show how EVs compare.
Really like the test, i drive up hill alot
I’m a nerd. I loved it!
20:37 Hi Bjorn, there is no regen limit. It seems to be a regen limit WITHOUT touching the brake pad. Regen on the ATTO 3 does not work like the one pedal driving on the Tesla. Regen on the ATTO kicks in when you press on the brakes. When you use the brake pedal, the motor regen kicks in first followed by the disk brakes. This explains why you're on the -30 kw limit during the descent while not touching the brake pedal and shot up to -71 kw
Keep the Doi Ang Khang tests up🥰🥰
I found it interesting, primarily because I am interested in you testing the BYD Dolphin 😀
Yes, keep doing this videos.
And don't forget the errands videos around town, and around the house.
I miss the chickens, and the coconut chopping videos, also the food in plastic. "Don't forget to comment about the plastic" :)
Nice. Perhaps to make as a proper test. kWh used to climb and descent like this it will spot on the efficiency in hard conditions. I think it is very interesting
Those continuous lines are there for the police ;) . No line -no "tip"
Spot on Björn. I live in Sweden but from the UK. And what you say about turn signals is bang on. Actually one of the biggest annoyances I found with driving in certain parts of Sweden. They will indicate to come off no problem, but do not indicate to show where they are going around the roundabout. Whereas in the UK if you don’t do that then road rage with many polite gestures follows big style. 😳.
Great vid and you are one of the main reasons I transferred from ICE to EV 🙏🏼👍. Going up steep hills like a Boss. 🤣
Quite interesting to see
dont stop doing it this way it works well
Awesome 👍
top of the hill: 168 km
bottom of hill: 195 km (41%)
When you got up to 190, it went down to 189, so there must have been some flat or uphill and downhill for a while before the regen added km again.
I think max kw regen number I saw was 70 kw.
edit: end of video 196 km. You added almost 30 km going downhill.
I agree, good to see the alpine tests in the morning light. You are going to get arrested at some point for loitering outside the radar station or whatever is at the top. Take them some snacks one day.
Lol, our city has lots of roundabouts compared to most in Ontario, and my wife was just explaining to a Toronto friend the other day why she should signal in roundabouts to keep everybody moving.
The Thai scenery is beautiful. Keep doing the climb videos. More Thai food though😊
I like this !
Keep more of these videos, please
thanks for the video! please keep doing it in English. if not too much to ask.
i just booked an Atto3 RED! delivery expected in 1 month.
Good shit looks like BYD Atto handle it well that's Nice. Beautiful green scenery i love how it looks remembers me like when Earth was still more primitive i miss that, like this shit 😁
Keep doing this video, it’s it interesting.
This road is like riding a rollercoaster, quite fun to watch.
This test with Leaf would be very interesting
nice hillclimb video!
If the car is telling you degrees... tan(angle)*100 should give you the slope in %. So 15deg is about 26% grade. Pretty steep!
17 degrees is about 30 % slope as the thumbnail says.
@@bjornnyland yeah you already worked it out. This is just for others who might be curious. 30% is very steep! I think the steepest in the world is about 38% I can't imagine even having to walk up it!
Good stuff
Yeah all those gearbox shenanigans are a good reason to get an ev... in the past people who think they know cars were bullshitting about how bad automatic transmission was... not knowing that automatic transmissions and sequentials have been a staple in racing since the 90s... but now there is no good reason to avoid it... the power delivery is far faster than any human can work the magic stick
