electric only benefit the government, only self charging cars are "green" and "saving the planet, because of the mpg once an electric car is at the end of its life it doesn't get fully get recycled keeping it on the roads for an average 20 years, ev sales in china rely on all modern country governments to buy their fleets of public buses also amazon electric vans etc, and if it wasn't for those major sales, electric cars would've been reserved as a toy for rich people, like the bankrupt fisker, and even though before inflation in 2015 a proton made in malasia was sold in uk for around £7500 and in japan and vietnam now in 2024 the toyota corolla and toyota champ sells for around 10 grand brand-new with zero mileage the cost of production of a toyota hybrid, which is the most reliable hybrid in the world, compared to the chinese ev's made by exploitation of employees, ccp doesent pay overtime, and tragic deaths occur, around £1500 is how that chinese ev will cost , and alibaba a temu is the horrific proof, from all the lives lost, which is where the 3rd world country quality control starts, it never existed, a basic search shows hundreds chinese ev's cath fire when charging and spontaneously go up in flames while the driver is driving it, so why do all the chinese ev buses on uk roads never ever catch electric fire, because uk government fixes those faulty vehicles because the uk government couldn't afford it if the whole of the uk sued uk government, and in china nobody sues the ccp and biggest joke of a quote of the government is, government cares about the planet but taxpayer has to pay for it, thats why electric cars used to have roadtax but not anymore, and when it was advertised first it was shown as zero, it will cost nothing except maintenance to recharge, also the extra one a half hours of time per each long journey, those hours were you put in for work that you didn't get paid for, look man, if i loved my job that much, i'd do the same, good for you
I'm not longer at Audi unfortunately so don't have access to them anymore. However, the majority of features are the same. You can check out one of my other videos for info on the virtual cockpit as the functionality will be similar. Hope that helps 👍
Hi there. I have an A1 Sport on order, and I have no tech packages. What does the "View" button on the steering wheel do? I haven't been able to find out what it does, except for change the view if you have the £3,000 tech package.
I am curious about your comment on the future of EV's and in particular the ability of the infostructure to handle the increased demand for electricity.. How do you see that issue being solved?
Honestly, I can't see how it would ever work. If every vehicle on the road had to be electric the existing network would be need to increase massively in my opinion. Electric vehicles, along with other alternative fuels and an option is certainly the way future motoring needs to go. I just think everybody is under the impression (and in all fairness, the way the idea seems to be sold) that there is going to be a blanket ban of all fossil fuel vehicle, whether that be powered by an alternative fuel or not. And if that was case, the current network couldn't cope
As someone considering a hybrid or full electric next year to replace either of the households 2 cars which both avg 27-31mpg. This is helpful. Tesla has been very proactive in setting up its charging stations which is a huge benefit.
The Tesla supercharger network is very good. It does have a few dead spots, particularly around the south east but for the most, you can navigate the whole of the UK with minimal stress. Also it’s handy that you can just pull up and plug the charger in, and all the costing is automatic to your account. With the rest of the network, you need an account/app for each provider. You then need to go into the app each. Sounds like minimal effort, but when your phone has poor reception, or the app doesn’t want to respond, or you need to supply a load of information to sign, these little niggles can really start to grind and upset your day!
Interesting video, unfortunately non teslas like my ix3, have to deal with gridserve and ionity etc, which are often full , broken and also very expensive at 70p per kw
@@maxsec2 to be fair, it would've done it on one charge there and back too. (if I had started on a full 100%) But I prefer to graze charge, which I think is the best way to use an EV. If I can charge when it suits me rather than having to stop out of necessity. For example, on this journey, I was ready to stop to have a break because of the early start, so it was a natural opportunity to top up the charge.
@@maxsec2 not the only no Tesla charger I used to use was Podpoint, particularly when it used to be free at Tesco 😂. The main issue I found with the charging network if finding a charging with a decent kW output. 50kW to charge a full EV is no fun at all!
Brilliant just bought Q2 for my daughter and your video just explained everything she needs to know,a lot better than reading the Audi book thanks again😃👍
Thanks absolutely brilliant and useful video - pissed about for 15mins trying to turn off the warning light - 2mins of watch your video l successful turned it off. Not sure I would have found out how to do this had I not watched your video
