I'd rather take my 30 year old BMW and I'm willing to bet that using my car and keeping it going for 30 years is way better for the planet than an EV. Just ask Volvo!

Main problem is you would keep having to buy things like lunch or magazines to keep you from being bored so you spend more money

Even though this is a sponsored video, i am glad you didn't shy away from explaining and showing the downsides

£35k for a Nissan Leaf. I paid £39k for my C205 C63 with 20k miles

@Blade1310 2 года назад

Sam has the same problem as other well known car You Tubers.............he thinks everyone can afford £35k for an entry level EV.

I would also like to see someone sit at a recharge station for 45 minutes with 2 kids under 5yrs and see how calming that would be. A long way to go until EV is a viable replacement from what I can see for numerous reasons.

The price is unacceptable DONT USE SHELL

@nameussparticus 2 года назад

EVs are just pricing those on lower incomes out of the market. About £35k is not an entry level car, £14k is. Unless public transport improves massively between now and 2035, of which I remain sceptical, most people won’t be able to afford a new EV, so will turn to used ICE cars and pay however much fuel costs then. Which doesn’t lead to much of a carbon reduction

@peterkirton4580 2 года назад

The cost of charging will rack up as we get nearer to 2030 and road pricing is inevitable unfortunately

@kierantilley2590 2 года назад

£35 and 2.5 hours extra travel time? That’s crazy. How do people think the electricity is generated to charge these EV’s… I know the likes of Tesla offer some solar powered charger but the majority of this electricity is generated through normal means.

Throughout this video all I could hear was tony laughing haha

A little tip for leaf owners that haven’t tried. When plugged in you can press the power button twice (without foot on the brake) to turn the car ‘on’ without the motor on as it won’t allow you since your plugged in.

@ric355 2 года назад

I understand the temptation to present the whole electric experience as 'not as bad as you might think' but as a viewer I still saw your experience as 'as bad as I expected it to be'. The suggestion that waiting for someone else to finish charging is not a big issue, and that you can do other stuff while its waiting to charge, does not really make up for the fact that you are stuck there for large amounts of time comparatively speaking. You even said yourself that you could have been home a couple of hours earlier in a Petrol car. Personally I'd rather get home early and do my work in a comfortable location than have to do it sitting on the passenger seat of a car. And on top of that, while it's charging no doubt you're drinking nasty but overpriced filling station coffee and eating bags of Doritos, and getting the pages of your magazine (which you wouldn't normally buy) all greasy.

Oh and btw, you need to get onto Shell about creating ‘business lounges’ at their service stations to accommodate those of us who will end up covering high business mileage in EV’s. Tables with 3 pin plugs, free fast wifi and some sort of ‘loyalty’ card with discounts on refreshments would be a game changer for those of us stopping to charge on the move 👍🏻

@eSysmanSuperYachts 2 года назад

You know Sam if you want you could drive your petrol car and stop in a petrol station for 40 minutes and edit your videos. It will only require 5 minutes if that 40 minutes to actual refuel but at least you can get the work done.

@Memovox 2 года назад

Soon all car YT videos will be about charging while eating chips to calm the range anxiety.

@jimmykucera8627 2 года назад

£35 on electricity, you’ll be packing your own snacks and magazines next time to keep costs down…

@codemonkey5548 2 года назад

The amount of inconvenience people will willingly accept for the feeling of have made a difference.

@saxongroove5898 2 года назад

Still feels to me like EV's are like curved TV's - everyone who has one is excited about them, and says you should get one - then 5 years later they are essentially obsolete

@Torthetamebadger 2 года назад

You should just charge it to 75-80% after that its very slow, so you actually gets quicker to your destination if you just do that. Normally from 5% to 80% takes like 25-30min the last 20% takes also 25-30 min so to be quicker just charge to 80 and go to next charger.
