    Both cars had the charge limit set to 60% on both charging sessions. For whatever reason the Megane shows 59% on the charger.
    The Megane started at ended at the same SOC.

    Useful test. Thanks. The Megane benefits from Renault's EV experience with three generations of the Zoe and shares some of the Zoe cabin controlls, although the Megane platform is new. Choice of EV is also affected by availability. With two good cars just buy the one which arrives first!

    Interesting that the ID3 consumption is slightly better. I think some people were hoping the Mégane would be super efficient. The Mégane charge curve is obviously a bit flatter or else less sensitive to plugging in at very low SoC (I think they have very similar 130kw peak if you plug in at low SoC?) Good test

    • @BatteryLife
      @BatteryLife  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It is the same curve, but Megane likes the high SOC started charging sessions better.

    I was really hoping to buy the new electric Megane, but I chose the ID.3 instead. It looks like it didn't make a bad decision, because it they're both good. Though I still like the design of the Megane better than the ID.3's . 😅

    @fischi24 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Looks like a little mistake in your measurement. The moment the charger crashed, the Megan was not ready with charging as the ID.3. The Megan was at 59%, so I think it has to charge a little bit until it's finished.

    • @BatteryLife
      @BatteryLife  ปีที่แล้ว +6

      No, it shows 1% less at the charger. I started with 59% at the charger. Car showed 60%
      I arrived with 46%, charger showed 45%. No idea why, but it did.

  • @VictorJongeneel

    My take on this is that the efficiencies of both cars are too close to call. It is possible that the VW does better at higher speeds (Autobahn) while the Mégane is more frugal at lower speeds. It also looks like in the 40-60% range the Mégane charges slightly faster. In any case, I don't think that this test, while interesting and well done, will make buyers choose one car over the other. For me, the vastly better infotainment system (including trip planning) of the Mégane has made the difference.

      @KennethPaul it's a pretty decent car if you want to go fully electric and have the options to charge at home or at work. Drove it from the Netherlands to Spain and wished for a bigger battery, even tho I've got the biggest one. The 220pk is insane, more than enough to overtake everyone at the stoplights. Google's infotainment is working well now after some updates. Integration with the whole vehicle is perfect. Only wished for a sunroof and better visibility, sight is pretty bad in the car. I have to move my heard to make sure I see everything from the sides. Today, I almost hit a bike haha. Would recommend the megane over the Id.3, Born and even model 3 and the new EX30.

    Megane is a very nice car, very quiet, comfy, safe, good. Generally I want to express, that 2022 the new price for electric cars is 40 k at least in germany. This car goes directly to 50 k, which is all a lot of money for average people, considering that politics want the move to eletricity, I guess individual mobility will either be unaffordable in the future or just something for the rich. Bad development, most people only can afford those cars by paying high credits for years. 60 kwh is not a lot in 2022, megane should have 70 at least for the price.

    • @BatteryLife
      @BatteryLife  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It is a 300kW hypercharger with 4 modules which each can provide 75kW.
      The modules divide on the two plugs. Since both would never use more than 2 modules which provide 150kW, it is fine.
      If a Taycan would have charged there, it would have gotten 3 or even all 4 modules.
