Great editing! There are many, many ev road trip videos out there on YT, but this sets a new standard with the map overlay and thorough statistics combined with interesting commentary.
Welcome and enjoy your stay in Croatia. While you are already there, park your electric car somewhere. Take a yacht and cruise around the islands. 😊 And don't forget to make a SW video while you're there.
I was very surprised to see such content from you, but positively. I was also faced with the decision to switch to a fully electric car for the next car (in my case a BMW iX3 - the i4 is too small for me and the i5 too ugly and expensive). Since I commute between Berlin and Mainz several times a year, these long journeys were a point that made me think for a long time. If I currently drive off in the evening, I can cover the distance of 630 km in 4:30 hours with a BMW G21 330d. With the iX3 I would have had to charge it 2-3 times and I could not have set the cruise control to 200 km/h, which is almost always the case from Berlin to Erfurt. The diesel is quite fast in German autobahn conditions. Driving through the Netherlands at a maximum speed of 100 km/h during the day is almost irrelevant. In the end, leasing the iX3 without the government discounts for new electric vehicles was so incredibly expensive that I had to take the G21 LCI 330d again. But the 6-cylinder is simply a dream. Enjoy the rest of the journey and I look forward to the next parts.
That's certainly a different format from your usual stuff haha, but I like it :) Would be cool to meet you in Germany one day! But not sure if that's in the cards haha
@@Bitdynasty Every time I travel crossing over the channel I'm always reminded that we voted for Brexit and we have never been really Eurocentric..... just an old imperialistic Small island lol 🤣 with bad food and hooligans 🤔?
@@Bitdynasty toll in motorways are very expensive in France, especially since Private companies own motorways. About 31€ for Paris-Rennes (West Coast), 81€ for Paris-Nice (South Coast) for example
This was fascinating, especially the shuttle. 80mph speed limits? We seem to have wider lanes and lower speed limits. In NYC, 25mph and they want to lower it to 20mph. Can take an hour just to get out of the city because of anti-car activists. Most of the highways around NY are 50mph with people driving 60. One highway linking NY and NJ is 65 with people driving 80. I wish we had 80mph speed limits.
I think the more crowded the road is, the lower the speed limit. Like in Edinburgh city centre in Scotland the speed limit is just 20mph everywhere. The civil engineer is pushing everyone to think driving is not a good idea by making it super slow so people take the public transport as first option
@@Bitdynasty Been to Croatia, been to the UK, but nothing compares to Slovenia! Beautiful landscape, mountains and lakes, some sea)), great food and wine, and amazing people!
@@Bitdynasty Forgot you may have some cheaper charging with BMW on Ionity, with my MG4 it was cheaper to pay the £10 sub and stick it on Tesla for the trip to Germany roughly on par with you 0.35 EUR
Nice one and quite a journey you have planned. I’ve been to Croatia only once but it’s beautiful during summer! Do you find it difficult driving with a UK car in central Europe? I am surprised how easy and fast it is to get from near London to Germany tbh. Also, can you sum up all the cost for the journey and compare it to a flight, pls? Would be interesting to see the difference tbh.
oh nice, we go to Croatia every year for the summer! Not a problem at all to adjust for me, you just follow the flow of the traffic! Yeah I was planning to sum up all the cost and compare to diesel / petrol cars as well as compare to flights also. We travelled last year by airplane so I know exactly how much that cost us also :) Be on the lookout for Part 4 for financial details :)
Huh, this is one odd looking galactic challenge event.
indeed, there is no challenge like a 'real life' challenge!
Nice Road Ahead
yeah looks promising :)
This is awesome!!! I'm looking forward to watching the whole journey.
Thanks, Part 2 coming soon :)
The interior of bmw is certainly improved quite a lot
yes, the i4 has pretty good interior I think
Great editing! There are many, many ev road trip videos out there on YT, but this sets a new standard with the map overlay and thorough statistics combined with interesting commentary.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is such a well made video. I'm very impressed. Really appreciated all the camera angles, the mapping and of course you explaining everything.
Thanks glad to hear that, it was a big effort for me to put this together 😉
Does this trip require a Relic 9 BMW?
Relic 10 confirmed!
Great video .. welcome change :)
Thank you! 😃
Wow. U covered such a long distance in just 1 day!
Yes I like to go on long road trips 😁
Well this channel took a left turn! Hope you enjoyed the trip.
Yep it's always fun to go on a road trip so I thought to try something new for my channel 😁

thanks, SWGOH videos will keep coming as usual no matter where I am :)
Have a good trip
Thank you, so far so good :)

Oh nice, thanks for sharing your experience 🙂
very impressive, and a nice car too!
wish i wasnt afraid to drive to the nearest city lmfao
thanks, the car is a bit bigger than I would have liked but not a lot of choice when it comes to electric cars yet :)
That's certainly a different format from your usual stuff haha, but I like it :)

Thanks, you never know 😉
I loved it ❤ ^^
thanks!
This is the way
Indeed 👍
@@Bitdynasty i love you drive safe bb
I like the video. Can’t wait for future installments. Is this vehicle new to you?
I got it 6 months ago
Funny as I 🤔 thought you were US or Europe based .
Great video - 👍 thanks for sharing.
On a side note are you a 501?
Well isn't UK part of Europe ;)
@@Bitdynasty Every time I travel crossing over the channel I'm always reminded that we voted for Brexit and we have never been really Eurocentric.....
just an old imperialistic Small island lol 🤣
with bad food and hooligans 🤔?
Very interesting video, i will my own test this summer with a Renault Megane 100% elec in France, thanks
Nice, where will you be driving to?
@@Bitdynasty From Paris to Brittany, then on to the south of France.
@@phidle9182 very nice, that is quite a long drive. How much do you pay for use of motorways in France?
@@Bitdynasty toll in motorways are very expensive in France, especially since Private companies own motorways. About 31€ for Paris-Rennes (West Coast), 81€ for Paris-Nice (South Coast) for example
@@phidle9182 oh wow, I am glad I drove through Germany then :)
You like sitting in the middle lane on the M25. Move left after over taking.
Sure 😁
I just got back from a cruise with the family, iceland Ireland Liverpool Amsterdam and not going to red or gold create, I'm sad
that's ok, will get it next time ;)
This was fascinating, especially the shuttle.

Interesting that is even lower than 70mph limit in UK...

@@officiallyfall That's awful. The wokes in NYC are trying to get rid of cars too and they're now very open about it.
gl bitdynasty as pilot for new electric ship to swgoh confirmed as counter for leviathan sith fleet?
coming soon to a galaxy near you!
Can you use BP pulse membership a cross Europe let me know thx
Unfortunately no, for Europe can use Ionity or Tesla subscriptions
What data disks are equipped?
Amplify Battery Range, Stable Accelerator and Protective Deccelarator
Are you of Eastern European descent
I am from Slovenia :)
Nothing about mods... I'm disappointed...
Will make sure to talk about them next year ☺️
which country are you from? its good whit different video too
I am from Slovenia, but live in UK
@@Bitdynasty Been to Croatia, been to the UK, but nothing compares to Slovenia! Beautiful landscape, mountains and lakes, some sea)), great food and wine, and amazing people!
@@MasterSolo82 yes I love the mountains, that is what I miss most living in the UK :)
I Would of gone on Tesla at Zaventem Brussels far cheaper and Erftstadt Tesla Germany.
oh how much is it to charge there for non-Tesla users? In Belgium I paid 0.28 EUR / kWH while in Germany 0.35 EUR / kWh
@@Bitdynasty Forgot you may have some cheaper charging with BMW on Ionity, with my MG4 it was cheaper to pay the £10 sub and stick it on Tesla for the trip to Germany roughly on par with you 0.35 EUR
@@EXSKIN yes, BMW and Ionity have a great deal on subscription, but Tesla subscription is also almost as good!
'promo sm'
Not sure what you mean?
