M1 MBP and beyond have been such an improvement over i9 MBP. Most days my work M1 Pro doesn’t even turn the fan on. Home i9 MBP has battery life like my RoG Strix. 😂
That ET7 efficiency at 127Wh/km is really good, very close to the original Ioniq. Sorry if I owned a Milano I'd rip off the Junior badge which just reminds me of Indiana Jones and stick on the Milano name again. Subscribed to this channel and your audio podcast.
It's been interesting to see the collaborations between legacy OEMs and the newer Chinese EV makers. VW, Stellantis, Honda -- and Toyota, all relying on Chinese companies for new EV platforms. People so often accuse the Chinese of "stealing" tech from Western companies. But they obviously have something now that the legacy OEMs need. I suspect it boils down to the issue of legacy corporate organization being incompatible with the development of efficient EVs, due to the way the bureaucracy is structured.
VW learned the hard way that the chinese market is very different compared to the european market. the huge investment in a development center to cater to the needs of chinese customers is spot on. but it will take time to get their shit together. at the end they can profit in other markets what they learned from it. it goes in both directions. the european market is also driven by the need for efficiency regarding the drive train which can be rolled out to china and other needs or priorities in china can then be transferred to other markets as well.
The Lucid Air is just as efficient as the Nio ET7. 4.4 miles/kwh for a semi-solid state battery is underwhelming. 1000km range for 150kw battery is nothing special.
That is correct they are not related. However what advantage do Nio have with this new semi-solid state battery when this vehicle is no more efficient? If the Lucid had a 140kwh battery instead of 118kwh it could also do over 620 miles and its battery cells are not solid state.
Lucid does not have space in their pack to make it 150KWH. Energy density is the innovation, there is a space limit in most vehicles. 118 to 150 is 27% more capacity for a similar vehicle size. Thay is a massive improvement.
@@themidgetsman What is your point? This Nio ET7 achieves 4.4miles/kwh this not ground breaking. Many cars today can do the same if not a lot better especially driving at an average speed of only 50mph.
If the Taycan does not have a huge computer as its very base, with customers OTA capability and will not be able to adopt Tesla FSD it is going to be another pretty same Taycan.
the taycan is the last car that needs FSD, expecially what tesla thinks fsd means. a porsche is a drivers car where the the driver wants to be in charge and wants to feel the street on the steering wheel.
Lol.. the Nio semi solid state joke. Basically it’s not really any more efficient than a good EV already out today without this BS battery. You tell me it can charge up in 5 mins.. cool.. bet it doesn’t though
I don't know. I was very dubious about charging claims of Chinese EVs. Then I saw the video where Inside China Auto demonstrated the charging of the Li Auto Mega. It was an eye opener. It has a big battery and charges from 10 to 80% in 11 minutes. Also has 550HP, specced out with features like an i7, and measures quieter than a Maybach S Class.

Great episode 👍
Thanks again for your davily ev news update cause friday show Rarely does that
I wonder if anyone at Google Maps has reached out to Rivian to buy their charger rating information?
I hope some of these new VW E-cars will come to Europe and will not to expensive.

Hi, don't want to troll, but surely Tesla did Australian Megapacks? Outside o USA.
The reference was to production of Mega packs outside US.
Or course they've been installed outside the US in many places.
Wow, VW has so far been connected to SAIC for China, this could be very interesting.

Folks will say “oh, that looks nice” about an Alfa melted jelly bean because it’s Alfa. Meanwhile they’ll hate on MY with similar styling.
Are you talking about the Elon Skunk car?
It's funny, how many cars have styling not too different from Model S or Model 3. Some Hondas and Mazdas look similar at a distance.

Battery size and efficiency are not related.
That is correct they are not related. However what advantage do Nio have with this new semi-solid state battery when this vehicle is no more efficient? If the Lucid had a 140kwh battery instead of 118kwh it could also do over 620 miles and its battery cells are not solid state.

"TayCON" is correct. You probably mean much better depreciation, ie: lose even more money.
If the Taycan does not have a huge computer as its very base, with customers OTA capability and will not be able to adopt Tesla FSD it is going to be another pretty same Taycan.
the taycan is the last car that needs FSD, expecially what tesla thinks fsd means. a porsche is a drivers car where the the driver wants to be in charge and wants to feel the street on the steering wheel.
Like #33

Yes ship one to Kyle to do his "70 mph' test.
I don't know. I was very dubious about charging claims of Chinese EVs. Then I saw the video where Inside China Auto demonstrated the charging of the Li Auto Mega. It was an eye opener.
It has a big battery and charges from 10 to 80% in 11 minutes. Also has 550HP, specced out with features like an i7, and measures quieter than a Maybach S Class.
a range of 1000+ km at crawling speed is irrelevant, but i guess it’s good for bragging rights.
Elon should leave Tesla to new CEO
no, that traditionally leads to a even bigger loss in company direction.
