You are in Norway with a very good network charging station whatever pure EV car you drive. In France, for non Tesla driver, it is just a nightmare for long distance trip, almost no fast charger or supercharger stations on highways. For your daily drive, it is not an issue if you can charge at home or at work. Love your channel.
@@YusukeShirogane What ? France is covered in Ionity Chargers. You havent done much research. France has about 55 Ionity Stations spread all over the Country. ionity.eu/#
@@itsfahys look for an Ionity station close to Paris and on the highway to Lille or Valenciennes, it is like a 🏜 desert. Now, on the A1, Total just opened a supercharger charging station with 8 stales on the first service station from Paris but the Kw is at about 0,70€/Kw (to be confirm).
Firstly, great video, I have just ordered my Xceed and watched your video twice for information as part of my research. One thing I found is that a PHEV type car is pointless if you are making long trips, using motorways a lot, because it will use mostly the petrol engine and though decent in that regard, as you showed yourself, it is not the best. Where this type of car excels, and this is why I choose the Xceed, is the ultra-urban trips, in and out of town where you use the electric drive more often, benefit from the slow self-charging from the wheels and of course, most importantly, the free charging points in shopping areas. And with a PHEV, plug it in!!! Thanks
Plug-ins are good for 1 type of people only: if you live in a city and do only about 40km of daily driving, you can just charge it at night on a regular plug. For any other type of customer depending on where you live, a full ev, regular hybrid or ICE is the better choice.
Yes, when there is a diesel spill on the grounds of the pump and you step in it.. it's very slippery on your pedals (brakes!!) It takes ages to "disappears" and fingers smells for ages -why I use plastic gloves.
Hey Bjoern, how many kilometers did you drive this year?. Must be a new record - you are amazing in what you are doing for electric mobility. Thank you very much.
Well , I can compare this to my Passat GTE first generation. Avereage consum. 20kwh /100km Charge at home 0.15 Euro/kwh incl tax. So total cost for driving 100km on electric is 3 euro I drive to work 25km one way and charge at work at acost of 0.3 euro/kwh. So the avereage cost for 100km is 4.5 Euro. This is in Sweden , the diesel is expensive. And I only drive 20000 to 23000 km/year so thats work for me. If i did drive 35000km or more/year i would also get a diesel Why ? well because even if you charge a PHEV 2times /workday , you can only drive it 12000to 14000 km on electric /year . You will not be able to charge it much more/day
Next time when you're getting gas please calculate the pump's charging speed in kW based on the energy that a liter of gasoline has. That's gonna be interesting. 😁
Assuming that he started refueling at 18:33 and finished at 19:29 and that 1L of fuel is equivalent to 8.9kWh (as per his last video) it would translate into 26.61 litres of fuel delivered in 56 seconds or 0.48 l/s. This gives you 4.22kWh per second of energy or a "charging" speed of 15,224kW. Pretty fast!
@@yourcrazybear Also agree. Cities are the right environment where PHEV really can shine. However I think that a proper PHEV should have, at least, 100 km of true autonomy.
@@y.emrekeles3345 He is talking out of his a**, No ICE car of that size weighing 2000kg can do that on such a long trip. Full hybrid, sure, ICE only, no. Now if you are talking small cars. weighing less than 1000kg, yes, some ICE cars of those dimensions can have the same or even less fuel economy.
Try the Mercedes GLE 350de, it has a small ish Diesel engine combined with a plug-in hybrid system with 100km range. It supports 60kW DC charging as well. I think that you should be able to get good fuel economy figures out of it!
I need help! At 6:55 you can see that you have 0km left on electric driving but the battery has got 12 % left. Why is this? I bought Xceed yesterday and on this low percentage, it wont let me drive on electric. Why is that? Is it a setting? Can't find the answerd anywhere...
About 10%/ battery energy is saved for pure hybrid mode(starting electric and accelerating fossil fuel engine). Below this limit you can't drive fully electrical
Good intro. I had that same nasty smell on my hands after driving last 3 months on my MS 70D but had to tank winter diesel to not freeze my ICE car. And btw my ICE car is an 15 year old Renault Megane and has the same average fuel consumption as that PHEV. With city drives included!
I have been passing or parked near charging points for two years now paying great attention to what cars are charging as part of deciding which EV id like to buy. I have only ever seen one PHEV take the time to charge Just one. I also have a few friends with them and all admit they don't bother saying charging is to slow on their ones. That's just my experience if it. This along with multiple studies showing that phevs emit more co2 than claimed. I think they have had their day. just go full electric. far better. Great Vid Bjorn.
I know one guy who changed from Toyota hybrid to ioniq PHEV. He was charging it at work daily full battery, so he was driving around city purely on EV. On weekends etc. he enjoyed the benefits of ICE. His average fuel consumption was 2.0L/100km :D This summer he has changed to full EV, said that is enough to charge at Friday and Monday at work and only once a few months use public charging elsewhere. But that's all posible, because Kona has quite big battery.
Very strange. Here in Finland the public slow charging points are mostly all blocked by parallel PHEVs such as Volvos, BMWs, Mitsubishi Outlanders, KIAs.
One thing that sucks about fuelling up is that you literally have to stand there and wait for the car to fill up. Okay most of the time but in cold it sucks, so for half the year in Canada I hate going to the gas station. Also after using an EV for a while, it’s so stupid that I have to take the car somewhere else to fill up vs on my driveway. Long road trips tho, the leaf wouldn’t cut it, so I always take fossil!
@@KownKR7 that’s the issue. Toronto and nearby these stupid pumps literally cut off the metal holder to keep pumping fuel without holding it. Only Costco keeps it but there aren’t many Costco pumps.
Volvo XC90, 5 people, fully loaded with vacation gear, driving in summer with AC on = 85 Liter Diesel for 1.100 km. This averages 7,7 Liter per 100. One stop for refueling. I ordered a Kia Ceed SW PHEV now. What already annoys me is the slow charging with 3.4kw max. Paired with a 37 Liter tank sucks. But the lease rate is 200 Euro only, including Service & Maintenance.
Did you bring a nail to lock the handle so it fills while you clean the windows? Once upon a time there were catches to half speed and full speed fill. Then one day about 20 years ago the catches were removed and there were little holes where the dates were. Nail did the trick.
Very good review, thanks. 154 kg heavier than the diesel XCeed, 262 kg heavier than the lightest petrol XCeed.. 117 kg onboard battery (in the XCeed plug-in hybrid). I think that Kia is doing something right producing plugin hybrids that shows decently low petrol consumption in hybrid mode on longer trips. Getting more curious how other plug-in hybrid would match the XCeed in same test.
My Chevy Volt 2010 design 2013 build runs at 5.5 l/100km once the battery is at or near zero. My Prius C non-plug in hybrid runs at 3.9 l/100km. Much lighter car. Volt range about 70 km, so due to mainly city driving Volt life long consumption is 0.8 l/100 km. Even when wife drives 0 l_100km . Prius C is only 5.5 l/100km when wife drives. Leadfoot.
@@cavramau yes, this test shows consumption on least favorable case. Most people have more city and start stop driving within electric range. But this is still relevant test.
If you drove let's say 60km on electricity, then the number comes to 6l/100km in normal hybrid mode. That's the same as the mild hybrid version. So seems like the advantage of the big battery disappears as soon as the charge runs out. Is that correct Or am I mistaken?
In a gas only car going downhill, you can use lower gear and engine braking instead of friction brakes to slow down. Steep downhills might need friction brakes though.
Hi Bjørn,thanks for your Videos and especially this. Comparison with eNiro is very helpful. Long time ago i Test drove a model s and EQC. Tesla did not convince me finally due to poor build quality and noise on higher speeds. EQC i do not want to spend that much money. Looked for an mercedes c or e class as hybrid. More quiet but still expensive and no full electric. So i am finally in the area of Kia ceed, xceed as PHEV and eNiro. Difficult to decide, eNiro might win.
I’m not really sold as of yet on an EV for long trips but for around town daily driving absolutely. For example my current car, VW Jetta 2019 1.4t will get 4.7 l/100km even with an average speed of 125 km/h for an entire tank, but during COVID driving strictly short distance for 3 tanks I’ve only been able to achieve 8.6 l/100km even with conservative shifting at 2k rpm. My plan is to get the ID4 as my next daily driver once available and save the current car as a backup and for long trips only. I think a hybrid like this is the worst possible combination, it has all the complexity of an ICE engine combined with electric added on, I’ll stick to my 6 speed manual and a pure electric later.
Is it powerfull enough to maintain 130km/h even in rises when the batterie is like 8% ? Not understand everything with thé sport mod at 125kmh, it does not recharge the batterie ? so How do you regen from 10% to 40% ? Thx
Maybe non-Norwegian viewers don't know what "being sunnmøring" means. Sunnmøre is an area of Norway around Ålesund where the people are "known" to be stingy, as with Scottish people. Or economically aware or clever moneywise as I would call it, as half a sunnmøring myself. Also "know" to be enterprising and entrepreneurial peoples. As the myth goes. They will however drown if they fall off their normally very large fishing boats at sea as they swim in a raking in style (hence rich) with their hands instead of moving hands outwards as normal people would swim.
Nice. I like the look of the car and I bet it's a nice package, but I wish it had a little more grunt for 1.6l. I hope you'll test some of the VAG PHEVs like the Golf 8 GTE or the Seat Leon eHybrid that's being launched now.. I'm looking towards those for the 200+ HP
Did you know gasoline is one of the few prices where Norway is cheaper than The Netherlands? You pay about 1.25 euro per liter when you said it was expensive. We pay 1.55 euro to 1.75 euro per liter...
@@mrvideks6760 Indeed, but even as far as PHEV go, this car is not bad at all for long trips, 5.5L/100km for a 2000kg petrol car? Honestly do not think that it is bad at all.
PHEV cars are just for manufactures to gain more money from those people, who haven't tried EV, but are afraid of it (range anxiety), so they see the PHEV as a best way for them. Also in many countries PHEV with their co2 < 49g/100km have/had the same or some incentives as EVs and many company cars in Netherlands and UK have chosen them as the best options (e.g., Outlander PHEVs are very popular)
If someone want to drive Electric, need All weel drive and a trailer hitch, dont't want to pay that much for eTron, EQC or iPace and his dayli driving profile matches to a distance of 50km the answer is Outlander PHEV. Otherwise buy a full electric car like eNiro.
Driving EV cars in Portugal is not a solution if you need to do a long trip. And even Tesla have to struggle a little. A good PHEV may be the solution, although I’m not sure that, in a long trip, it would help lower consumption. I have a Volvo V60 T6 with 310 hp and, at legal speed, I could drive 600 kms before I have to fill up again. I driven a Volvo v60 T8 (PHEV) and the range, on the same long trip was the same.
Hi, I have a KIA CEED PHEV 2022. I'm very disappointed how the hybrid system works. If it low temperature outside (below 10 C) then the petrol engine always starts if the so if im driving under 10km it never runs purly on electricity. Or if the AC is runing the petrol engien starts. So the petrol enginen is always running when heating or cooling... My advise, dont buy a KIA
Going to camping holidays with the Skoda Octavia combi, I need 4.4ltr/100km of diesel for the 1150km highway trip while sticking to the 130kph speed limit. With a family of four, full to the ceiling of the trunk, and the bicycles attached to the back. This PHEV with 5.5litr of E95, sitting alone at 90km/h, what's the point ?
The point is 0 emissions in the daily city commute. The money/energy ratio is not always comparable. PHEV are not perfect transport machines, even EV's are not with today's battery technology and fossil thinking car manufacturers. Today's EV must be lighter and as aerodynamic as possible. The diesel engine in your car is perfect for long family holyday trips, but what about if you need to go to the near food shop...? Cold engine - less efficiency, more CO2, harmful impact to the DPF...an so on. The country I live is full with old diesel cars, yesterday my city was in top 10 among the most polluted cities in the world.
this video is nothing special for a plug in hibrid !! couse, a regular kia niro, without plug in, can drive over 1000 km with one full tank. In fact, even 1100 km! and the regulat hibrids are much cheaper than plug in ones !
The PHEV even has a charge-mode, which allows to charge the battery full again while driving. Some people claim this makes sense when you drive on country roads up to 100 km/h when the ICE is not fully stressed. And the car has a heat pump, which makes it possible to run the heating even at -10°C without the ICE. I'm sure the XCeed can't do this.
@@gerbre1 There are no dedicated recharge mode as far as I am aware (Niro owner here). The Kias recharge more aggressively (and I wonder if the regenerative brakes are stronger) in "Sport mode", that way you build up an electric reserve. No heat pump unfortunately.
Phones and electronics don't cause static electricity, that is a myth that was myth busted on the myth busters show. Static electricity comes from rubbing different materials together, like when you get in and out of the car.
The fuel filling process was hilarious.
Thanks to detecting that he is going to fill up a tank with a gasoiline rather than diesel.
i guess it is kind of randomly asking but does anyone know a good place to watch newly released movies online ?

PHEV saving on fuel is a myth busted. My old Volvo V50 1.8 back in 2010 used to consume the same amount of gasoline on highways in long distance.
Agree, my 200 hp BMW diesel, can do on a long trip 5L / 100km
You guys miss the whole point of PHEV. They don't excel at long trips. They excel at daily commute with decent long trip capability.
@@ottowillumnielsen9083 No do that with a petrol engine of that size.
@@mrvideks6760 Indeed, but even as far as PHEV go, this car is not bad at all for long trips, 5.5L/100km for a 2000kg petrol car? Honestly do not think that it is bad at all.
PHEV cars are just for manufactures to gain more money from those people, who haven't tried EV, but are afraid of it (range anxiety), so they see the PHEV as a best way for them.
Also in many countries PHEV with their co2 < 49g/100km have/had the same or some incentives as EVs and many company cars in Netherlands and UK have chosen them as the best options (e.g., Outlander PHEVs are very popular)
What is your opinion on hydrogen cars? better or worse than an electric cars? more, less or equal pollutant?

You bought a 5 NOK HotDog? That's just over EUR 0.50. !! Man, I'm not sure how comfortable I'd be eating a 50c hotdog! Looked good, though!
Very informative 👌
instant subscribe, really lovely
Please more PHEV videos!
Wow i cant believe diesel is cheaper than petrol in norway its the opposite in the uk
It’s always been that way here for as long as I can remember.
If someone want to drive Electric, need All weel drive and a trailer hitch, dont't want to pay that much for eTron, EQC or iPace and his dayli driving profile matches to a distance of 50km the answer is Outlander PHEV. Otherwise buy a full electric car like eNiro.

It's naaaaasty 😂👍
Driving EV cars in Portugal is not a solution if you need to do a long trip. And even Tesla have to struggle a little. A good PHEV may be the solution, although I’m not sure that, in a long trip, it would help lower consumption. I have a Volvo V60 T6 with 310 hp and, at legal speed, I could drive 600 kms before I have to fill up again. I driven a Volvo v60 T8 (PHEV) and the range, on the same long trip was the same.
not working cause petrol station love only old smoking cars !! and yours is too clean and new !|! ; )
Is he Singapore or Chinese?
he's norwegian
Magari se viene caricata più spesso i consumi sarebbero migliori........

Hi, any plans to test the MG HS PHEV? Thanks
Fossile cars are to expensive and fuel will only be more expensive
now the us gas prices are gonna be $5 a gallon with joe biden in offfice so more people are going to use ev!
His average was $6 per gallon and you see prices of $7 per gallon quite often here in Nordics. These kind of 50+ mpg cars are very popular here.
@@smokyislay i bet people here especially where i live in the midwest eveybody drives old, large v8 vehicles getting like 15mpg
That has doubled your refuelling time from 5 to 10 mins.

Hi, I have a KIA CEED PHEV 2022. I'm very disappointed how the hybrid system works. If it low temperature outside (below 10 C) then the petrol engine always starts if the so if im driving under 10km it never runs purly on electricity.
Or if the AC is runing the petrol engien starts.
So the petrol enginen is always running when heating or cooling...
My advise, dont buy a KIA
Under 10km?
Om du syntes 13.69 er dyrt bor du ikke i Bergen! Gleder meg såååååånn til jeg kan bytte ut Avensisen med en Tesla, selv om jeg er glad i Toyotaen :)
Yep, Nasty.
a Plug Hybrid car is not ment to do what you did.
Going to camping holidays with the Skoda Octavia combi, I need 4.4ltr/100km of diesel for the 1150km highway trip while sticking to the 130kph speed limit. With a family of four, full to the ceiling of the trunk, and the bicycles attached to the back. This PHEV with 5.5litr of E95, sitting alone at 90km/h, what's the point ?
The point is 0 emissions in the daily city commute. The money/energy ratio is not always comparable. PHEV are not perfect transport machines, even EV's are not with today's battery technology and fossil thinking car manufacturers.
Today's EV must be lighter and as aerodynamic as possible. The diesel engine in your car is perfect for long family holyday trips, but what about if you need to go to the near food shop...? Cold engine - less efficiency, more CO2, harmful impact to the DPF...an so on.
The country I live is full with old diesel cars, yesterday my city was in top 10 among the most polluted cities in the world.
Did you drive over mountains and have shitty weather on your trip? I don't think so.
this video is nothing special for a plug in hibrid !! couse, a regular kia niro, without plug in, can drive over 1000 km with one full tank. In fact, even 1100 km! and the regulat hibrids are much cheaper than plug in ones !
But the point is that *lots* of people buy PHEV nowadays.
For a long distance driving phevs are a joke .Get similar number on my old Renault sport tourer petrol with 5 people on bord,summer (14c)
With the Prius PHEV you will get 4,5 l/100 km. It's the most efficient car of its class.
That's because Prius drivers consistently drive under the speed limits.
@@bjornnyland You can be the first Prius driver to prove it's still true when driving faster.
The PHEV even has a charge-mode, which allows to charge the battery full again while driving. Some people claim this makes sense when you drive on country roads up to 100 km/h when the ICE is not fully stressed. And the car has a heat pump, which makes it possible to run the heating even at -10°C without the ICE. I'm sure the XCeed can't do this.
@@gerbre1 There are no dedicated recharge mode as far as I am aware (Niro owner here). The Kias recharge more aggressively (and I wonder if the regenerative brakes are stronger) in "Sport mode", that way you build up an electric reserve. No heat pump unfortunately.
@@JanHenrik541 Prius PHEV has it all.

Too expensive
Waat?? You have cheaper gasoline in Norway than in Finland?? Your government should put up more tax on gasoline and diesel. Yes!! Taxing for the win!!
Happy im not living in Norway, horrible place boring, Copenhagen so much better.
Norway is a million times nicer than your homeland OTTO and the people too. You could learn from them.
Don't use phone while filling petrol ESD can cause fire🔥

@@bjornnyland phone or any electric device. But he was not filming and fuelling (really fuel flowing) in the same time
Bjorn is not filming with phone ... he is using proper camcorder
Phones and electronics don't cause static electricity, that is a myth that was myth busted on the myth busters show.
Static electricity comes from rubbing different materials together, like when you get in and out of the car.
