For all asking the question about power consumption in the night: you can get a glimpse of the car scanner in the morning which shows ~37.5kwh. 00:21 a.m.: 58.3 kwh 08:00 a.m.: 37.5 kwh used in 7h40 minutes: 20.8 kwh which equals to 2.71 kwh / PER HOUR (thanks german car makers!) With my Model Y I used around 1.1kwh (per hour) near Lillehammer at -9°C in Camp-Mode. advantage Model Y: heat pump! + smaller cabin to heat
@@darekmistrz4364 oh yeah, you are correct. Didn't had to calculate then :D btw, 20.8 kwh equals to 27% on a 77kwh net capacity pack of the VW ID Buzz. So Bjorn used 27% of the battery capacity in only 8 hours. When I was camping, I was stationary (camping) for ~ 15h and used only 20% to 22% of the Model Y LR battery capacity. that is such a huge difference.
@@nixer89 Definetly, this is also important factor in situations when there is traffic stuck on highway for many hours because of some big accident like in beginning of 2022 on I-95 in Virginia
Pro-tip on the FLIR: when you are moving the camera around to check the temperature over a large area (like, the whole interior of the Buzz), tap the "lock" symbol on the color scale on the right to prevent the camera from changing the scale as you move the camera around. The way you're doing it in this video is really misleading, because the oranges at the front of the car are hotter than the oranges at the rear. The camera is just setting the orange/red end of the scale to the hotter areas currently visible in the camera, so the rear of the car could be much cooler than the front and still look the same. Aim the camera at a relatively warm area of the car, like the front, then lock the scale so that scale's used everywhere. Then you'll have a much more intuitive view of the heat distribution as you move the camera around.
Around the place you slept - one of the most beautiful pieces of the road in Norway - has kind of 'Alaskan' feeling. Long strait stretches of the road, forests and mountains in the background.
Thanks for another great video Bjorn, really unique and useful information about sleeping in the Buzz to all of us planning to use it as a camping car.
It really feels like the Buzz is missing a trick for its utility, where it desperately needs an external 230v power socket. I mean the fact that the van has a 100kw's of battery, but you then have to bring along 30kg of battery to heat your pizza seems completely crazy.
ID serie does not have even continues 12VDC at front, only in trunk. You wanna charge your mobile while stopping somewhere, only possible in trunk. I do not get it.
"Gangbanging the chargers" too many of these gems in this video dude your a legend. Knew you were asian sound just like all my Chinese friends. Same pace of talking and same accent. Makes the jokes like 'peeing in pants to stay warm' even funnier. You earned a new subscriber.
It's especially surprising since ABRP is his sponsor. Lol. But the data they have on the ID Buzz is probably pre-alpha, so the algorithm isn't that accurate.
He could have just increased the reference consumption based on those observations and then he would have gotten more accurate values. From his values a reference consumption of 270-280 looks more reasonable and comes up with consumption values Björn had.
Oh what a video 2 things 1) yes the main reason we see artic circle, geilo mountain and banana box test is for the challenges Like artic circle is how well do u sleep/camp and how fast can u reach artic circle etc I like u have a neutral gear trick - but these cars shd have camp mode like system to run while sitting 2) I like we all were excited to see a secret merc car - only to be some fossil wagon car lol - it's nice it was not interesting for us😋 Thank u :)
Hey Bjørn! Thanks for this test, with camping in the Buzz. Really helpfull, but unfortunately it confirmed allmost all of my conserns. But atleast good to see that you can cheat camper mode, even though I think that this gives a good bit higher energy consumption than a camper mode would. Big shame on VW for not including that as a standard. Fitted covers, as you demonstrated, would probably lower the consumption even more. I guess, on with shades on all windows would consume less than same type car with fornt side windows uncovered. And fitted ones would definitely bee the best choice. Also a big shame they didn't include V2L, as this would be perfect addition to this kind of vehicle. Anyway, top tourist advertisement for Norway with your great landscape shootings. We live in a truly beautiful country, even on cold winter days. Keep up the good work, and enjoy Thailand, another beautiful country i have had the pleasure to visit.
They need to make a Westfalia version of this with the popup top. EV's are perfect for National Parks here in the U.S. because you can get a cheap camp spot with RV electrical outlets. So you can charge and run the HVAC system.
I'm normally quite jealous of the beautiful winter scenery but we've just had snow in the UK so it's almost as good 😀 Interesting results from the camping test and utterly ridiculous VW don't hve a camping mode in a what is designed as a CAMPER van! 🤯🤦 I was looking at one of these for the family but was an instant FAIL with the lack of rear opening windows...
Why does the buzz need to be tricked at all? What use is this thing? * Too small a battery to travel 200+km with a 80% charge on the autobahn. * only 2.5 seats in the second row, only 2 isofix * not even a camping mode? WTF VW.
The Mercedes EQE SUV is the first Mercedes EV on that platform with a heat pump. So expect the EQE, EQS and EQS SUV to get a heat pump too, hopefully soon.
Bjorn, you have it really easy in Norway with all those DCFCs and especially the lower highway speeds. Here in the Western US, average highway speeds are no lower than 100 km/h so you really can't go too much slower. Most roads average between 105 and 120 km/h, even two-lane roads.
Switch the car into Neutral and leave the "engine" on. Then engage the parking brake without putting the car into park. This is the "Neutral trick" he mentioned and used very often already.
Björn, I think you are being wrong about ABRP. The arrival estimation massively depends on the climate conditions, traffic and speed. You need to let it run, and understand the current consumption and conditions. It also gives a bit off estimation for me first and then within 10 minutes of driving, it gives almost the exact arrival SoC.
V2L should be part of every EV these days. I wonder, how long VW is making EV's, and up to now, nobody thought about it? And then, you don't need to have these large and expensive powerbanks (while the vehicle has one already itself) to cook your food ;).
Just was confused about the place you stayed over night. Have stayed just a few minutes up the korgfjellet in august with my VW camper van which is 31 years older than the ID Buzz. Could recommend that, even better view.
Nice road trip/test, keep them coming. is there a chance in the future you can review a Canoo EV in extreme weather conditions if you have a chance and when its available...
Good video. But did I miss what was the trick to keep the ventilation? What is the neutral trick? I'll be sure to get into this situation once my Buzz is delivered.
Leave the engine on and shift into the neutral. Then manually engage the parking brake without putting the car into park mode. Once that is done you need to crawl from the front seat to the rear without opening the drivers door.
When your drinking this. And you say your going to Thailand i think your drinking ( Solo Wun) or how they say it in Thai since it's a little slushy 👍🏻. Question. Would you recommend VW Id.4 GTX? Thank you for your videos. And have a nice trip to Thailand
Tesla has a camper mode in their sports cars. But VW do not make this in their fancy van. People must cheat the stupid system. Even no darkening solution. To do a heating a sales manager told me to program multiple departure events. That's disappointing for such an expensive toy
@@frankblok1743 yeah, I know. And it is fun that tesla provides juice for their tests and they dont push their “own” company to install DC chargers there
@@bjornnyland Yes, I know. And yes! These batteries can be useful for many things. I have even built my own DIY „Ecoflow“ just for the fun of it and to have it as a backup for an aquarium pump, just in case. Looking forward to see more of your electric adventures. With or without wheels beneath the battery. :-)
I hope one day U could join these teams which test/drive/ give special reviews to such cars in the cold or heat or bad terrain - but only if u have the freedom to use alot + critic freely It would be awesome :)
Personally, I don’t care to watch you sleep in the car. I mostly watch these videos to see the efficiency and charging in very cold temperatures. Seeing the sights in Norway is interesting, but it’s definitely not necessary in every “Article Circle” videos
I think 70 Kw in the cold in 2022 nearly 2023 is pretty bad especially considering the car has a battery heater, this is not impressive, it's also not impressive that vw continue only to allow decent Kw at only low SOC, it's a serious limitation and makes these cars not fit for long distance travel, in my opinion of course, I've been driving EV since 2015 and I'm not impressed at how little progress ev manufacturers have made in relation to cold weather performance when charging. It's not just a Volkswagen issue, pretty much every ev suffers some form of coldgating, Tesla being the only ones really trying to address it in any meaningful way. The battery heater coming on only a few mins after plugging in is a joke, what is wrong with car manufacturers ? do they think we want to hang around all day waiting for a stupid car to charge, just enable battery preheat function and let me decide whether I want a warm battery for faster charging or not. Sick of this really, I love my id3 Tour 5 but the slow charging really is shit, peak charging power is useless it's the time say 10-80% or 30-80% is what's important in all weathers. My BMW i3 2017 Rex was a great car, big battery and small generator, now if my id3 tour 5 had the same I'd never need a public charge again or have to endure coldgating, and best of all the id3 had a DC socket so you could use fast chargers when the battery was warm. A really amazing and very unique car. Shame BMW have abandoned the idea.
power distribution in ecoflow is pretty logical. both batteries are connected in parallel, but the juice is sucked only from the one with inverter, so this one is always lower in voltage.
Man, there should be a camping mode in the Buzz for overnight heating just like in Teslas.
