    Very good video. I also got a bZ4X. There are too many functions in this car. May be I am too old to learn new stuffs. Every time I read the manual, I will feel sleepy and cannot continue to read. I will appreciate if you can make some more video on the different functions and settings on the bZ4X. Thank you!

  • @peterfessier9780
    @peterfessier9780 ปีที่แล้ว

    You made a comment on your first Bz4x video in response to someone’s comment that you were going to make a video on why you switched from the RAV4 Prime. I’d like to know why you switched to a BEV and why you chose the BZ4X. I’m probably going to buy an EV in the next year or two but it’s not for any practical reason. I like driving electric and I’m finding I don’t go over the range of a good EV very often. I probably won’t go for the BZ4x as there are other EV’s here that qualify for the federal tax rebate here in the US while Toyota’s don’t.

    Do you know Is there enough toyota charging station accessble for a road trip?

    • @EVDude
      @EVDude  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi! There's no such thing as Toyota charging stations. In order to properly plan your roadtrip, you can use applications such as ABRP (A better route planner). All EVs (except Tesla) use the CCS1 combo standard for fast charging so you'll have to set that in the app. Tesla is also opening up their network to most other EVs, so planning ahead is always beneficial.

    Salut Bajee Rpm à mentionne de charger à 80% une batterie lithium ion mais tu suggère à Full. J’aimerais avoir ton opinion .
    merci

    • @EVDude
      @EVDude  ปีที่แล้ว

      Il faut suivre les recommendations du manufacturier et celui-ci mentionne de le charger à plein. Il est effectivement vrai que les batteries lithium-ion préfèrent une charge vers les 50% mais ceci n'empêche pas du fait qu'il y a déjà une partie non chargeable de la batterie que Toyota a prévue. Pour ma part, je charge à 100%. Si vous voulez prendre des précautions, vous pouvez mettre une heure de départ ce qui fera en sorte que le véhicule commencera la charge plus tard dans la nuit, donc moins de temps passé à 100%. J'espère que j'ai pu vous aider.

    Why don't they make quick charge only?! Would it harm battery if use quick charge always???

    • @EVDude
      @EVDude  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Residential DC fast chargers are not a viable option. They cost several thousands of dollars and it's not worth it. The battery will eventually degrade over time if you only use DC fast charger instead of AC. The degree of degradation will vary from different people according to their usage. Don't expect your battery to degrade over 20% in a lapse of 10 years. There have been scientific studies done on that and you could find them online.

    • @EVDude

      You have to unlock the car first which releases the locking pin of the charging inlet and then you can remove the charger from the charging inlet.
