Well, with my Ioniq 6 AWD I have a range between 570km and 580km and I think this is really great given its weight and battery size, all when I drive in Eco mode, so basically only with the rear motor.
@@NonstopDrivingReviews I love the car. It drives so smooth while there is always the potential to unpack its power (AWD). It is my daily drive and I am completely satisfied. The only hiccup it had was with the satnav software update that makes the Bluelink stop (but that was also in other models), a bit of google search and a soft reset did the trick.
The greatest mistake Renault makes is that they don't combine automatic gear with LPG. Better fuel economy and cheaper than the hybrid. I believe they lose sales.
I agree. The Renault group cars on this platform in general, just like the Duster. You can only get the automatic with the full hybrid system. Lots of people want a 4x4 automatic or like you mentioned a LPG automatic.
Tolles Auto aber bei die AWD Variante fängt schonmal bei guten 80.000€ an... dann noch ein paar Extras und man ist auf 90.000€. Sorry aber da kann man sich auch nen Audi e-Tron oder BMW e-SUV kaufen...
The unspoken reality is that the Mercedes pays a very high aesthetic price for that lower drag coefficient. That key-card reader piggy backing on the inductive charging pad is a major mistake. Apple CarPlay not being onboard initially is a debit too. Either use the card key reader or charge your phone on the induction pad, buyers expect more at that six figure price point. The biggest drop of the ball is no LiDar for all the early adopters of this vehicle already paying up for the (almost) loaded launch edition. To me that is kind of the "killer app" for the Polestar 3 and without it the grade must be: Incomplete. Promising platform, high price and missing major features for an impressive vehicle that is almost there but not quite ready for prime time. Bicyclist or just simply cyclist both work. I enjoyed the review. Thanks.
Thanks for the comment. I might have not mentioned it good enough, but you only need to put the key card in that place when starting the car afterwards you can remove it and place your phone there.
I will probably end up buying this car but only because its the least worst of the current crop of small cars left on the market. I wish Suzuki would bring the 2nd generation Celerio with its AMT robotised manual gearbox to the UK. I've driven it multiple times as a rental in South Africa & it's a cracking little car! Its spacious, has enough poke to get it up hills & driven sensibly, will happily return 70 mpg (4L/100km). Yes, like its predecessor, its been whacked pretty hard with the ugly stick but I can easily look past that because its extremely CHEAP.
Thanks for this review. I was hoping for the mild hybrid CVT powertrain to be better. Expected the electric motor to iron out CVT lag. Doesn't seem to be the case. 3 cylinder engines are noisy but we are used to it out here. We have a Maruti Suzuki Brazza MPV in India. Which would hugely benifit from this powerplant. But the mediocre performance and extra cost of CVT might swing things in favour of the AMT 😔.
@@deinfreund no, Dacia is known for only equipping the safety features which are required by law. In Europe that is not a bad list but still nothing to write home about.
@@windowman9665 thanks for clarifying, I did not know that it was a led bar, I thought it was a golden element. We did not get to see the car at night so I did not notice this.
@@federicomignone6795 weil mir englisch besser liegt und es mir auch mehr Spaß macht. Deutsche Videos macht aber auch mein Kollege auf einem anderen Kanal „Nonstop Driving“. Kannst du gerne mal vorbei gucken
0.21 for the side view cameras, .22 for side view mirrors. I think the beeps are fine too. It's behavior modification. I'm sure you pay attention to speed sings, but after driving for a few decades a lot don't.
True that would have been interesting to see. I decided not to do it as I’ve tested all cars in auto (just wanted to see the efficiency performance with the cylinder shut off) And want to be able to compare them to future cars with the same power/ engine set up
Its cool that u have that camera rear view mirror,but is there like a battery in it or is it just like that, and 2 will it be hard to see cars behind in the night??
Runs on the same power as the digital cockpit, radio, sound system, infortainment display and so on. I prefer to look out a real window more as I can see more out of it in my opinion, but it’s not a major difference.
Just why i like the design overall but why if you're saying "it makes the cabin different", my claustrophobic will go insanee , anyway i like volvo c40 or ex 30
@@mazzaih Polestar is a Chinese company owned by Geely and Volvo cars. Volvo was Swedish until 1999 when it was purchased by Ford. Ford sold Volvo 2010 to the Chinese automaker Geely. Polestar 4 is made in Hangzhou Bay factory in China.
We already know how the story will go All safety air bags Did not deploy during a slow 15mph collision causing the battery to spontaneously combusts in an unstoppable fire. All passengers perish as the electrical system failed and did not allow passengers to unlock doors to make their escape. It is unknown how many were on board as the unusual intensity generated by lithium battery fire caused all organic matter to evaporate.
@@itisyouthatiadore they decided to remove the window as it would have been so small that you wouldn’t have been able to see much. It gives the cabin a very different feeling. I personally would have liked even a small window.
There are basically only drawbacks to no rear window. Vans, campers and trucks have it, because it's not possible, since they are heavy loaded and there would not be anything to view at other than the loaded stuff. Dismissing the whole rear window in a normal car, while adding additional electronics and even manual work on the rear mirror to see the other camera is just bad. 1. More electronics means more points of failures. 2. More electronics means more energy consumption 3. A rear window allows hand free look. In this case the driver has to change something on the rear mirror to change the camera. Overall, the design is bad without rear window. There are reasons we have them. They are there for safety reasons and new designs should bring benefits, not drawbacks. Design over usability is bad practice. Adding to this (but thats a general trend in the Automobile Industry), and with the caveat that I don't see the rest of the cockpit, there are missing haptic buttons. Especially buttons for the emergency lights. In the EU or especially in Germany some of these Buttons are mandatory by law. Not negotiable.
They decided to just completely remove it as it would have been so small that you would have not seen much. Gives a very different cabin feeling for the people in the back
My N arrives Tuesday. Two sleeps! 😂. But it does make me smile all these EV “range tests”. How many 650 petrol cars have you undertaken a fuel consumption test or a drive to empty? This is my 3rd EV. I’m not worried about range. Charging speed is the key
@@juliandclarke great choice! What color did you go for ? Yeah charging speed is obviously a key aspect. You can check out our rs6 performance video. Almost same horsepower but a lot more expensive haha
Super Test. 👍🏻 Schade das man bei den Verbrauchskosten inzwischen gar nicht mehr so viel billiger ist als mit ICE sobald man es minimal fliegen lässt. Mir gefällt das Auto wirklich, und könnte mir das auch als Daily/Spass Auto vorstellen als Alternative z.B. zu einem M2. Aber eine reale Reichweite von vielleicht 200km von 20-80% ist halt schon echt wenig wenn man dann alle 2 Wochen 20min am Schnelllader stehen muss und dann noch 50cent zahlt ohne eigene Wallbox. Und dabei reden wir noch nichtmal von winterlichen Bedingungen. Und will man volle Leistung, sollte man vermutlich nicht mal unter 40% kommen.
Danke für den netten Kommentar 😀 ja wir hatten mal ein Vergleich zwischen Ioniq 6 und neuen Passat als Diesel. Bei den Kosten hat sich echt nichts getrennt. Natürlich ist es sehr günstig wenn du zuhause lädst. Leider schwer wenn man Langstrecken fährt 😅. Das Auto ist echt super, noch nie von einem e Auto so begeistert gewesen. Aber ein M2 würde ich immer noch bevorzugen 😂
Beautiful little sedan, but can't help feeling that it's about 15k USD overpriced. Audi seems tone deaf when it comes to pricing in the automotive market.
Thanks for the compliment, much appreciated. I personally haven’t driven the “normal” 85 but what I can tell you from other Volkswagen AG cars, you notice the difference between having the DCC equipped and not having it equipped.
