Speaking as a Tesla Fanboy, I think testing where one car is at 100% charge and the other is at 80% is misleading, since regenerative braking will be effectively disabled for the 100% car. In addition, the VW was driving behind the Tesla, so might have benefited from drafting.
@@jimroth7927 It's easy you or others have the chance to do a new test in different conditions. It's not BL's fault they provided the car almost fully charged for only a few hours when there's traffic on the roads. It's a test on real roads with real traffic so it's a plausible scenario.
Actually, this test confirms my consumption observations with Model 3SR. It is very efficient up to 110/120 km/h. But consumption is increasing a lot more compared to other sedans/hatchbacks e.g. BMW i4. when driving faster. I have no clue why this is the case, because from an aerodynamics point of view I would expect the Tesla to perform better. Eventually it is related to less efficient drive train at higher speed.
My guess is internal resistance of the battery and / or motors performance at higher RPM. Either LFP is battery in SR+ does not like high power draw or cheaper aluminium rotor is less efficient at higher RPMs. Long Range with LG NMC battery is also less capable than comparable Panasonic NCA chemistry. Panasonic NCA battery for Model 3 Long Range / Performance is now only available for US market and more expensive Modes S and X.
at a higher SOC level especially above 90%, most of the slowing down of the car will be done thru' the friction brakes rather than thru' regenerative braking since the battery is quite 'full' to take in additional energy. VW will have the advantage of better consumption rate as it has a lower SOC range thru out this test compared to the Tesla. good attempt and definitely hard work to complete this test and analyse the data.
There is something very odd going on here. 215wH/km = 342.4wH/mile, which is *very* high consumption for a Model 3, especially a new Highland one. That would be 2.92m/kWh which is more like an old Model S. That doesn't match *any* other test I've seen, even of the old Model 3.
@@wolf-dieterschulz-engelke8598 you are absolutely right. It depends on many variables. My statement has the same limited value as the initial claim. Hence, my sarcastic reply. However, I wouldnt consider a 2 to 3kwh usable battery size difference between the 2 cars as relevant.
Impressive - Nice knowing these things - Thank you for your videos - Drag is maybe just a little benefit for the ID7 - However the Id 7 not having a cold start might also give a little benefit - However still very impressive numbers.
I watched a range test on WhatCar with the ID 7 the Seal and the Model 3 and the ID 7 was way behind the Tesla in efficiency, not even close. One of the tests was done on a close circuit, changing the drivers in controlled conditions. In this test it was also way behind the Seal in efficiency.
@@Juuythljgrrdwq Truck/coach bus is big and boxy, ID7 has cd 0.23 so it closes the airflow behind the car somewhat imho. But I will try to draft behind trucks at 88 km/h to get some teslike consumptions in the future. 😎
These cars are the most important models of the new EV lineup. It deserves a much longer and detailed test with charging too. This one has a very short distance to see the real result of the consumption. I think in a long trip with higher or significantly lower temperature Tesla will way better effiecient. By the way ID.7 has a great range and a very effiecient car! Thank you for the test Chris!
Great video! Wow, the energy consumption on that model 3 is quite high, my guess is that winter tyres and coldish battery. I have a 2022 Model 3 RWD, and over 35000 miles I have an average of 229 Wh/Mi (56000 km - 143 Wh/km)
Tesla only heats where you sit, not the whole car. Also it is not heating if nobody is inside. Also Tesla measures the trunk size differently, so it could be bigger from the numbers but smaller in real life. Overall impressing results for the ID.7. Bigger car with more and better assistants and more or less same consumption.
Trunk space is always calculated for the area below the luggage cover on ALL cars. This might be why you were surprised the trunk in the ID7 showed to be smaller than the trunk in the Model 3 Space above the luggage cover is considered unusable as loose items could fly over the rear seat backs and hit a passenger if the car was in a crash.
Tesla advertised trunk capacity figures are not remotely comparable with other cars, for either Model 3 or Y. I don't know what drugs their testers take, but they're strong ones.
As inconvenient as the truth is, it's still true. Space above the load cover isn't considered usable luggable space therefore it isn't measured in official figures. Surprising as it might be, the Model 3 and the ID7 have almost the same length trunk and the ID7's trunk is about 4 cm wider. In fact, the ID7 actually has a smaller trunk than the ID4 despite the fact that the ID 4 is a smaller car. However the Model 3 probably has twice the space below the trunk floor and is big enough to fit a cabin trolley case into. Having said all that. I'm certain that you could fit more suitcases into an ID7 because you can take the load cover out and stand your suitcase vertically, utilising that space that the manufacturers don't use when they measure load capacity.
@@peterwilliamson1825 much of what you say is incorrect It's true that these measurements should only be to the load cover. However your statement that the Model 3 is bigger than the ID7 below the load cover is completely wrong. It's a lot smaller. Tesla used to say approx 400 liters for a M3 and it hasn't significantly changed. The Model Y is similar - they say 850 litres or some such rubbish, but it's actually smaller in the back than an Enyaq (585 litres). Tesla figures are completely out, and not by a small amount. It's really disingenuous.
This is a great result for VW and I’m pleased. (BTW I have a MS and Fremont M3LR. This ought to help people who don’t want Tesla into a good family EV 😁. This is great for the great transition. I don’t think it’s apples to apples but you can only test what you have I guess. A 1000km challenge winter and summer ought to show the true results but nonetheless the ID7 is now a workable option. I wonder if the software updates will work well?
Thanks for this video Chris. Good kWh to km range, looks like a little better than my Mach e but I’m surprised only by .5 kms 5.7km/1 kwh iD7 rwd 5.2km/kwh Mach e awd LFP in whisper. With about the same weather and km/h speed.
Thank you very much for the insight. Good work from VW. I believe the ID7 will sell well. Note: 2:07 WLTP of the Tesla is 678 km due to the 18 inch rims.
I don't get why everyone keeps testing and comparing the ID.7 vs the model 3. It's not a Model 3 competitor, but rather a premium electro Passat - in other words a company car. It would make more sense to compare it to the model S instead.
then, you can argue that the model S is indeed a competitor of a VW phaeton like, or EQE Merc, i5 bmw. The id7 seats in between, where there are no customers! On the other hand, the M3 is a premiumish sedan with equivalent, or larger, interior/cargo space with awd, almost twice the power, cost several k less, etc....
As a VW ID4 owner, who watched other ID7 comparison reviews, why do your comparison results differ so drastically from other outlets? I understand the motor is more efficient compared to previous tech. Are you not testing apples to apples here? edit: Heat pump, assuming air source, should be very efficient in that temperature range. But as you mentioned, the sunny day most likely kept cabin temperatures elevated for such mild temperatures.
Sorry, but you’ve got battery size for Model 3 too low. It was LG 78.8 netto kWh battery minus 3.2..3.5 kWh buffer below zero. And you can have some heat losses as Bjorn calls this measurement error of about another 1 kWh. It should have been around 75 kWh available from 0 till 100%. Model 3 had something on the front passenger seat so activated second (passenger) heating zone. You need to ensure that nothing is pressing on the seat exit and enter a car again. Also, if you charged your car, but Model 3 battery remained with cool or even cold battery. Have you used CHILL mode? It sucks a bit more heat from the battery to climate and brings lower consumption at colder weather.
Nice comparison. ID.7 base price is 61k in NL, pretty high unfortunately. I remember that you did an overview of consumption based on charger (excel 1 year ago?). Tesla MY there had 16% more consumption then what it presented on the board computer. ID.3 was only 6% more based on charger versus board computer. Seems that Tesla showing a bit too positive consumption figures on the board computer?
Tesla can take 12 kW for battery heating, while ID.3 doesn’t. Reason of the difference. Take a test after pre-heating battery for fast charging in both cars but check the temperatures via the car scanner / ScanMyTesla. Also, Tesla heats battery to at least 48C in Long Range / Performance or at least 42C for SR/RWD, while such temp would kill ID.3 battery.
Oh Oh - how can you do this test. Everyone will yell at you - Tesla lovers and VW meniacs. I will never get this... I simply buy the car that i like and can afford. And where I get the best leasing deal. No clue why people always fight about car comparisons... Strange waste of energy...
kleiner Tipp: Das Handy in der Hand zu halten während der Fahrt kann schnell zu einer Strafe führen, würde ich in einem öffentlichen Video nicht machen.
Tesla does preheat the Battery also at 68% because even while it is charging rather slow at this SoC, it would be even slower or more harmfull to the battery if it is too cold and if you're driving further so you probably have a use for the Heat anyway, problem is that if you didn't navigate to a Supercharger it heats inefficient with its Motors fast with 7 to 8kw while charging (waste energy, like a ptc heater) and not with the Heat Pump what it would use if it knew it has enough time. The fan noise is no indicator if it's hot or cold for the car. Don't know why but it even is in the manual: "Model Y is designed to automatically maximize efficiency; therefore, your air conditioning compressor and external fan may run and make noise even when the outside temperature is cold and your vehicle is heating or supercharging."
Are we really surprised that a car with 200 HP less is a bit more economic. Wow! Can't wait for the test where the 1.0 TSI Golf is more economic than the Golf Type R.
The extra kwh that the model 3 charged went into heating! Tesla is heating the battery every time you put it on a DC charger. Very annoying.. plug in at 98% if you want to top up .. 6 kwh goes into the battery 7 kwh for heating 🤦♂ VW does it better. Best would be to let the user choose and default to the lowest consumption mode. Love everything else about the car.. the heating algorithm is extremely annoying. The WLTP and EPA test does an AC charge. So this inefficiency does not show up in the official consumption figures.
Yeah, something is wrong here. Model 3 is highly efficient and the Highland is better still. The VW is 300 kg heavier and has a higher drag coefficient. Weight is less important at high speed but drag is a different matter. I will look for further comparisons that aren't done in a rush before considering this result as anything more than unexpected and needing further investigation. I live in the sub tropics with lots of traffic so I actually get more like 120 to 130 on the motorway in my 2019 3 doing weekend trips. Another observation, German Autobahns very high speeds are not good for the environment and energy. consumption. Far worse for combustion cars obviously.
The model 3 is a dual motor the id.7 is a single motor..... The model 3 SR also has the same power as the ID.7 but will beat it in consumption any day.... but it has less range
And it's smaller to with smaller wheels, why is it that, all Tesla guy's get so annoyed every time the Tesla is not winning, just look at the numbers and take it for what it is, just look at all the many Tesla fanboy's comments, I don't get why you take it so personal, it's just a car🙂 relax a little🙂
@@Jan_S_Andersen no, Tesla is measuring all of the luggage room also the useless spaces, where all others are only measuring up to the cover, you can not compare the numbers of the Tesla with other car brands. Plus that it's not a hatchback, so you can't fit bigger item's in the car and you can't have a cage for a dog etc...

Der Tesla-Motor ist ein Wechselstrom und der VW ist ein Gleichstrommotor. Das bedeutet, dass Tesla bei höheren Geschwindigkeiten mehr Energie verbraucht und bei niedrigeren Geschwindigkeiten, wie z. B. im Stadtverkehr, weniger Energie verbraucht als VW.
Common... You drove a ID7 from a garage and a cold TM3 from the parking lot. Battery weighing 300 kg and a 10C temperature difference is around 3,5 kWh of heat energy right there. The TM3 has a heat pump, so the fan is working when the car is heating up the battery - Tesla always heats up the battery for DC charging and if you didn't set the navigation to the charger, it couldn't use the heat pump to do that - it had to use the resistivie heating to do it fastest. If you started the DC charging twice, the car had to heat up the battery twice... Man, this whole test is a joke...
Strange that your consumption test differs from most others I have seen. Our Model Y AWD is about 12 months old and the average is 4 miles per kwh. [6.44 km per kwh] Assuming 75kwh usable this is 483km. A model 3 will easily do more than this. The ID7 is a very nice car but it just has to be cheaper to compete - similar to PoleStar.
The Tesla Engine is a AC and the VW is a DC. That means at higher speeds, Tesla will use more energy, and at lower speeds, such as city driving, use less energy than VW. also think Tesla has less weight than the ID7.
This result makes no sense. Hear me out: In the other video Model Y LR has 10% more consumption than ID.7. In this video Model 3 LR has 10% more consumption than ID.7. This does not compute. Big error by comparing cold vs warm battery.
You first. Dependency of resistive heating on temperature should be lower than dependency of heatpump having a source of heat vs. not having a source of heat.
I don't believe you truly understand the Tesla operation and how it works. The heater will continue to operate if you don't close the door or you manually click on one of the heating modes. Tesla's ideal charge curve is 20 to 80% you need to get help next time you perform these sorts of tests.
One car in front for 50% one way, the other car in front for the rest of the way, and the same for the return journey. This is the only way to eliminate any slipstreaming affecting the results.
so 30 % of 77 kWh means 17,4 kwh /100 km and exactly 30% of 74 kwh means 17,5 kwh/100 km ... cool . good math 😈. anyway -all youtubers have better consumption tesla vs id7 - all but you 😂. I ' m waiting Tesla Bjorn to see the real consumption.... come on . good try but no 😂
Tesla Bjorn 120 km/h test with highland LR gave him 330 km at slightly lower temps. Even Bjorn said the highland is a lot thirstier at higher speeds. So i guess we have to start believing those figures. Especially highway speeds
@@mcherry8010yeah. New Model 3 standard range is 513km WLTP range with 60kW battery. Which is great. ID.3 with 60kW battery (58kW usable) is only 420km WLTP. ID.3 still has the old engine (ID4/5 facelifts got the new one) and has significantly worse aerodynamics (cd 0.267 vs 0.219).
ID has some advantages over Tesla. Front parking camera, 360 degree (top) parking view, much tighter turning radius, more compact dimensions (shorter car instead of frunk). Those matter in European cities, where parking spots tiny. Also they have classic brake/gas pedal setup which appeals to many older drivers.
The Model3 is a dual motor version against a ID7 single motor version. Insane . Like apple and pears..Price difference is also obvious. Mod3 have a trunk too. ID7 is more expensive for less performance in all specs. Mod3 Std range is almost cheaper and more efficient to. Its clear a VW promo YT ,-) Fair enough. Mod 3dual motor with superior tech specs, cheaper is on par with a single motor frunkless ID7 ... ;-)
Because ID7 is large comfortable car with great features. Hires IQ matrix lights. AR HUD. Cockpit display in front of driver. Glass roof with liquid crystal shading. Rear seats with decent sitting height for adults. Front radar to avoid phantom braking. 2 rear radars for rear cross traffic detection. Lift back for carry large cargo.

She will drive behind me (around 0:55). Do you know anything about drafting (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drafting_(aerodynamics))? Please apologise to viewers, explain that you did big mistake and stop with misleading videos.
A distance of 50 meters (approximately 164 feet) behind another car is generally considered too far to benefit significantly from the drafting effect. The drafting effect, which reduces air resistance and improves fuel efficiency, is most effective when vehicles are in close proximity to each other. Therefore, while a distance of 50 meters may offer some slight reduction in air resistance compared to driving alone, it is unlikely to provide a significant drafting effect that would yield substantial fuel efficiency gains. It's generally recommended to maintain a safe following distance of at least 3-4 seconds behind the vehicle in front of you for optimal safety. I do not belive Cindy is a thrill seeker and was driving that close even.. so no it should not matter.. there is no video from the ID.7 in this test

My guess is internal resistance of the battery and / or motors performance at higher RPM. Either LFP is battery in SR+ does not like high power draw or cheaper aluminium rotor is less efficient at higher RPMs.
Long Range with LG NMC battery is also less capable than comparable Panasonic NCA chemistry.
Panasonic NCA battery for Model 3 Long Range / Performance is now only available for US market and more expensive Modes S and X.
7:13 What a limousine! 🤩
ID7 optimizations for the Autobahn confirmed? 😜
Everything under 20 is fine for me!
You should compare technically related cars!
The Tesla has at least 200 more horsepower than the ID.7 and also has all-wheel drive.
The Model 3 SR with only rear wheel drive would have been a better choice for the test.
at a higher SOC level especially above 90%, most of the slowing down of the car will be done thru' the friction brakes rather than thru' regenerative braking since the battery is quite 'full' to take in additional energy. VW will have the advantage of better consumption rate as it has a lower SOC range thru out this test compared to the Tesla.
good attempt and definitely hard work to complete this test and analyse the data.
There is something very odd going on here.
215wH/km = 342.4wH/mile, which is *very* high consumption for a Model 3, especially a new Highland one. That would be 2.92m/kWh which is more like an old Model S.
That doesn't match *any* other test I've seen, even of the old Model 3.
Teslabjørn has tested ID7. At least 180w/km that gives a max range of 475km
Already? 🤔

Impressive - Nice knowing these things - Thank you for your videos - Drag is maybe just a little benefit for the ID7 - However the Id 7 not having a cold start might also give a little benefit - However still very impressive numbers.
I watched a range test on WhatCar with the ID 7 the Seal and the Model 3 and the ID 7 was way behind the Tesla in efficiency, not even close. One of the tests was done on a close circuit, changing the drivers in controlled conditions. In this test it was also way behind the Seal in efficiency.
Wow, that is really an achievement, congrats VW!

These cars are the most important models of the new EV lineup. It deserves a much longer and detailed test with charging too. This one has a very short distance to see the real result of the consumption. I think in a long trip with higher or significantly lower temperature Tesla will way better effiecient.

Tesla only heats where you sit, not the whole car. Also it is not heating if nobody is inside. Also Tesla measures the trunk size differently, so it could be bigger from the numbers but smaller in real life. Overall impressing results for the ID.7. Bigger car with more and better assistants and more or less same consumption.
Hey Chris great test - next time check the tesla consumption data that would have perhaps shown battery conditioning or another reason 😊
Heat pumps are best at 7C and above.
Trunk space is always calculated for the area below the luggage cover on ALL cars.
This might be why you were surprised the trunk in the ID7 showed to be smaller than the trunk in the Model 3
Space above the luggage cover is considered unusable as loose items could fly over the rear seat backs and hit a passenger if the car was in a crash.
Tesla advertised trunk capacity figures are not remotely comparable with other cars, for either Model 3 or Y. I don't know what drugs their testers take, but they're strong ones.
They just use a different method of measuring, not the usual one. M3 is really one class below ID.7 but bigger than the ID.3
As inconvenient as the truth is, it's still true. Space above the load cover isn't considered usable luggable space therefore it isn't measured in official figures.
Surprising as it might be, the Model 3 and the ID7 have almost the same length trunk and the ID7's trunk is about 4 cm wider. In fact, the ID7 actually has a smaller trunk than the ID4 despite the fact that the ID 4 is a smaller car. However the Model 3 probably has twice the space below the trunk floor and is big enough to fit a cabin trolley case into.
Having said all that. I'm certain that you could fit more suitcases into an ID7 because you can take the load cover out and stand your suitcase vertically, utilising that space that the manufacturers don't use when they measure load capacity.
@@peterwilliamson1825 much of what you say is incorrect
It's true that these measurements should only be to the load cover. However your statement that the Model 3 is bigger than the ID7 below the load cover is completely wrong. It's a lot smaller. Tesla used to say approx 400 liters for a M3 and it hasn't significantly changed. The Model Y is similar - they say 850 litres or some such rubbish, but it's actually smaller in the back than an Enyaq (585 litres). Tesla figures are completely out, and not by a small amount. It's really disingenuous.
Not true, Tesla used the SAE standard (measure all the way too roof) while most other brands (VW included) use VDA (measure to parcel shelf).
Überraschendes Ergebnis.
What is the key factor in ID7 low consumption compared to earlier video?
Testdrove ID7 today and was very impressed. Still 60 000 € is steep for VW
So if heat pumps are as efficient as everyone claims, an ID.7 with heat pump would have beat M3 with 8% ? 10°C should be quite ideal.
the heatpump from VW (ec for ID3) was terrible..
Great Review...and honest!!
Amazing video.
This is a great result for VW and I’m pleased. (BTW I have a MS and Fremont M3LR. This ought to help people who don’t want Tesla into a good family EV 😁. This is great for the great transition. I don’t think it’s apples to apples but you can only test what you have I guess. A 1000km challenge winter and summer ought to show the true results but nonetheless the ID7 is now a workable option. I wonder if the software updates will work well?
Thanks for this video Chris. Good kWh to km range, looks like a little better than my Mach e but I’m surprised only by .5 kms
5.7km/1 kwh iD7 rwd
5.2km/kwh Mach e awd LFP in whisper. With about the same weather and km/h speed.
Thank you very much for the insight. Good work from VW. I believe the ID7 will sell well.
Note: 2:07 WLTP of the Tesla is 678 km due to the 18 inch rims.
But did it have the new efficiency summer tyres that are responsible for that number or just some generic winter tyres?
ID7 is selling really bad, outside of Germany in Europe and in China. Sorry.
SOC of 100% prevents the Tesla from regenerative breaking, so it will loose some energy when breaking, especially in the beginning.
I don't get why everyone keeps testing and comparing the ID.7 vs the model 3. It's not a Model 3 competitor, but rather a premium electro Passat - in other words a company car. It would make more sense to compare it to the model S instead.
then, you can argue that the model S is indeed a competitor of a VW phaeton like, or EQE Merc, i5 bmw. The id7 seats in between, where there are no customers!
On the other hand, the M3 is a premiumish sedan with equivalent, or larger, interior/cargo space with awd, almost twice the power, cost several k less, etc....
Why someone wanting to buy an M3 wouldn't consider an ID.7? And vice-versa?
@@Vercixx model 3 lacks comfort, id.7 is not as fast as the model 3.
@@sebvv5219 You think people only buy the M3 for acceleration?
@@Vercixx no.
As a VW ID4 owner, who watched other ID7 comparison reviews, why do your comparison results differ so drastically from other outlets? I understand the motor is more efficient compared to previous tech. Are you not testing apples to apples here?
edit: Heat pump, assuming air source, should be very efficient in that temperature range. But as you mentioned, the sunny day most likely kept cabin temperatures elevated for such mild temperatures.
Was the ID.7 behind the Model 3 all the time?! You have to drive VERY far behind for drafting not become a factor😅
Sorry, but you’ve got battery size for Model 3 too low. It was LG 78.8 netto kWh battery minus 3.2..3.5 kWh buffer below zero. And you can have some heat losses as Bjorn calls this measurement error of about another 1 kWh. It should have been around 75 kWh available from 0 till 100%.
Model 3 had something on the front passenger seat so activated second (passenger) heating zone.
You need to ensure that nothing is pressing on the seat exit and enter a car again.
Also, if you charged your car, but Model 3 battery remained with cool or even cold battery.
Have you used CHILL mode? It sucks a bit more heat from the battery to climate and brings lower consumption at colder weather.
Very good summary. I am looking forward to see Bjørn testing this ID7 in Norway. This car is at least efficient under warm conditions, great job.
How close was she driving behind you? If close, the drafting effect would invalidate your test.
Nice comparison. ID.7 base price is 61k in NL, pretty high unfortunately. I remember that you did an overview of consumption based on charger (excel 1 year ago?). Tesla MY there had 16% more consumption then what it presented on the board computer. ID.3 was only 6% more based on charger versus board computer. Seems that Tesla showing a bit too positive consumption figures on the board computer?
Tesla can take 12 kW for battery heating, while ID.3 doesn’t. Reason of the difference. Take a test after pre-heating battery for fast charging in both cars but check the temperatures via the car scanner / ScanMyTesla. Also, Tesla heats battery to at least 48C in Long Range / Performance or at least 42C for SR/RWD, while such temp would kill ID.3 battery.
Oh Oh - how can you do this test. Everyone will yell at you - Tesla lovers and VW meniacs.
I will never get this... I simply buy the car that i like and can afford. And where I get the best leasing deal.
No clue why people always fight about car comparisons... Strange waste of energy...
kleiner Tipp: Das Handy in der Hand zu halten während der Fahrt kann schnell zu einer Strafe führen, würde ich in einem öffentlichen Video nicht machen.
Danke
Tesla does preheat the Battery also at 68% because even while it is charging rather slow at this SoC, it would be even slower or more harmfull to the battery if it is too cold and if you're driving further so you probably have a use for the Heat anyway, problem is that if you didn't navigate to a Supercharger it heats inefficient with its Motors fast with 7 to 8kw while charging (waste energy, like a ptc heater) and not with the Heat Pump what it would use if it knew it has enough time.
The fan noise is no indicator if it's hot or cold for the car. Don't know why but it even is in the manual:
"Model Y is designed to automatically maximize efficiency; therefore, your air conditioning compressor and external fan may run and make noise even when the outside temperature is cold and your vehicle is heating or supercharging."
hm amazing and also weird... because the heavier and less aerodynamic car should have a higher consumption. but well, good for the ID7. 🎉
+5 .. +10 °C is optimal external temperature range to a heat pump
Are we really surprised that a car with 200 HP less is a bit more economic. Wow! Can't wait for the test where the 1.0 TSI Golf is more economic than the Golf Type R.
I'm definitely getting the ID.7 over Model 3. It's a real car after all.
Any comments on VWs cock up with the battery modules or we just brushing it under the carpet?
The extra kwh that the model 3 charged went into heating!
Tesla is heating the battery every time you put it on a DC charger.
Very annoying.. plug in at 98% if you want to top up .. 6 kwh goes into the battery 7 kwh for heating 🤦♂
VW does it better. Best would be to let the user choose and default to the lowest consumption mode.
Love everything else about the car.. the heating algorithm is extremely annoying.
The WLTP and EPA test does an AC charge. So this inefficiency does not show up in the official consumption figures.
Yeah, something is wrong here. Model 3 is highly efficient and the Highland is better still. The VW is 300 kg heavier and has a higher drag coefficient. Weight is less important at high speed but drag is a different matter. I will look for further comparisons that aren't done in a rush before considering this result as anything more than unexpected and needing further investigation. I live in the sub tropics with lots of traffic so I actually get more like 120 to 130 on the motorway in my 2019 3 doing weekend trips. Another observation, German Autobahns very high speeds are not good for the environment and energy. consumption. Far worse for combustion cars obviously.
Teslas always heat batteries until it cools it :). If you saw steam then that was moment when it switched from heating to 55C to cooling.
Are you sure the Model 3 has 498 horse power? Maybe with the Acceleration Boost
The model 3 is a dual motor the id.7 is a single motor.....
The model 3 SR also has the same power as the ID.7 but will beat it in consumption any day.... but it has less range
And it's smaller to with smaller wheels, why is it that, all Tesla guy's get so annoyed every time the Tesla is not winning, just look at the numbers and take it for what it is, just look at all the many Tesla fanboy's comments, I don't get why you take it so personal, it's just a car🙂 relax a little🙂

Der Tesla-Motor ist ein Wechselstrom und der VW ist ein Gleichstrommotor.
Das bedeutet, dass Tesla bei höheren Geschwindigkeiten mehr Energie verbraucht und bei niedrigeren Geschwindigkeiten, wie z. B. im Stadtverkehr, weniger Energie verbraucht als VW.
Common... You drove a ID7 from a garage and a cold TM3 from the parking lot. Battery weighing 300 kg and a 10C temperature difference is around 3,5 kWh of heat energy right there. The TM3 has a heat pump, so the fan is working when the car is heating up the battery - Tesla always heats up the battery for DC charging and if you didn't set the navigation to the charger, it couldn't use the heat pump to do that - it had to use the resistivie heating to do it fastest. If you started the DC charging twice, the car had to heat up the battery twice... Man, this whole test is a joke...
19:10 It does exist, I think Tesla sold some from the inventory last year.
Well it did, but I don't think Highland version of LR RWD exists at least currently.
Strange that your consumption test differs from most others I have seen. Our Model Y AWD is about 12 months old and the average is 4 miles per kwh. [6.44 km per kwh] Assuming 75kwh usable this is 483km. A model 3 will easily do more than this. The ID7 is a very nice car but it just has to be cheaper to compete - similar to PoleStar.
Drafting at 130kph last for 5/7 seconds or 200/250 meters it means that 100m of distance gives you a great advantage
Of course. Absolutely crazy test.
Its not a test…. Its one big mistake
Bravoooo Tesla!!!
I wonder what the consumption would be for ID7 if have 498HP and 4wheel drive like Tesla???
Starting at 98% SOC removes regen for the Tesla.. Also drafting. Swap the SOC and lead car, im sure your resaults will change 🤣
It seems all the other efficieny tests differ a lot from yours. How can that be?
The Tesla Engine is a AC and the VW is a DC.
That means at higher speeds, Tesla will use more energy, and at lower speeds, such as city driving, use less energy than VW.
also think Tesla has less weight than the ID7.
Chris you get arrested driving with a phone in your hand in the UK. ,!😊😮😂

Much colder in the Model Y test so the ID.7 will perform worse on that day since it has no heat pump.
That's a minor factor.
@@RobertPuklincan you provide some data to back up that claim?
You first.
Dependency of resistive heating on temperature should be lower than dependency of heatpump having a source of heat vs. not having a source of heat.
I guess we will have to wait for Björn the professional to do some testing.
I don't believe you truly understand the Tesla operation and how it works. The heater will continue to operate if you don't close the door or you manually click on one of the heating modes. Tesla's ideal charge curve is 20 to 80% you need to get help next time you perform these sorts of tests.

She will drive behind me (around 0:55). Do you know anything about drafting (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drafting_(aerodynamics))? Please apologise to viewers, explain that you did big mistake and stop with misleading videos.
A distance of 50 meters (approximately 164 feet) behind another car is generally considered too far to benefit significantly from the drafting effect. The drafting effect, which reduces air resistance and improves fuel efficiency, is most effective when vehicles are in close proximity to each other.
Therefore, while a distance of 50 meters may offer some slight reduction in air resistance compared to driving alone, it is unlikely to provide a significant drafting effect that would yield substantial fuel efficiency gains. It's generally recommended to maintain a safe following distance of at least 3-4 seconds behind the vehicle in front of you for optimal safety.
