The bad thing is that in automatic transmission skips many gears with the renault electric, so after 50km/h it costs a lot, in my case I use it in my scania, Renault Electric engine and transmission Volvo FH 2012 and goes pearls in heavy loads (61t) in my opinion the renault electric is very powerful in manual than in automatic.
@@TGMStefa Manual will give you even more range depending on you'll switch the gears. I think you'll mainly benefit more with the Renault ones because you can drive them in the lower gears for faster acceleration. The transmissions just make no sense at all, especially the neutral.
Interesting clip, however i still choose the Reno because of the interior and its so silent, idk if its just me but Scania has that specific noise when you cruise at 90 kmh, sounds like you drive with winter tiers in summer
renault powertrain characteristics feels very weird with low speed pick-up felt too snappy while on the mid to high speed the shift logic goes all over the places and its struggles to keep up. otoh scs nailed the scania powertrain characteristics IMHO with its multi-motor setup, emulate a "gearshift" without actual gear change
Tell me if im wrong, but arent those two trucks useless? their range is just hilariously bad(about 1/5 of my volvo), they arent very vast, they arent very powerful. What is their purpose. I mean its always good to have more trucks to drive, and im definietely buying those at least to test them myself, but i dont think they are any better than the rest of trucks
@PinguPenguin-BMWM they are in game, but not aviable to buy yet, because we dont have charging stations in game yet. If you want to test drive them you need to find them in jobs with truck included. The easiest way to find them is to sort by shortest to longest distance(because they are electric they are aviable only on short distance deliveries) and search for blue bolt on right top corner of truck icon. Finding it took me a while but i drove electric scania already
I feel like this whole EV Truck concept is really weird, I mean imagine having to stop like 7 times for a load. We still don't have the reliable technology to use on our daily vehicles.
In my opinion , having them tested separately , Renault it's much faster to about 60 km/h , or at least it's crazier. Playing on keyboard it's squeaking the wheels when leaving from standstill to about 5th gear , especially if it's without the trailer. I was also able to do doughnuts and burnouts with it , something I never did with a stock truck on normal roads. Scania seems much faster on the higher speeds , but it's more chilled , it's not squeaking the tires when I'm leaving from standstill , I couldn't do burnouts with it. Also , Scania seems to have better range in my driving style, going pretty much as fast the road allows. With Renault I did about 300 kilometres with one charge , testing it to see it's acceleration , top speed etc. With Scania I did about 450 kilometres and I've still had about 10% battery when arriving at destination in same conditions. I can't wait to have them as ownable trucks and to do deliveries across the continent with them.
The thing is, Promods by itself is a massive map so if you have discovered a reasonable portion of the playable map you will see a crapton of quick jobs in the menu. Try sorting by trip distance in ascending order (EV trucks have very limited range so the quick jobs are all short distance ones). You can also filter them to only show quick jobs that give you a Scania or Renault.
I don’t really interested in the E-truck but only drive for the new interior, and I didn’t finished any of the jobs, the battery dead at half of the distance
