FINALLY! My First 500+hp SpaceShip of the Season! / Nürburgring 

ICE are loud, depending on your induction/layout/exhaust

yes, everything but the back of the car is a good design...

I also about blew a gasket from the thumbnail when I saw the seat. I have been hoping to see my car on here. I cannot wait for summer!

I was just about to comment that the car drives and handles well of it wasn’t so damn ugly lol

@@juraj_b it is really only kinda ugly from behind. any angle from the front loois great. maybe I am biased.

Take one for a drive and tell me after if your not an ev fan afterwards. I doubt your mind won't change :)

Wow! That would be cool. Crossed fingers 🤞

there room for improvement for sure.

what are the brakes like on your eTron? id imagine theyre fairly beefy considering its audi. im pretty sure the taycan has similar brakes to the 911. fairly large. and the rs eTron competes with it, so i imagine it has a similar brake package. would definitely be a cool lap to see!

I'd love that!!!

@@XenonArcher personally speaking they're pretty poor. If there is one thing I wish I had specced on the car it is carbon ceramic brakes, had them on by RS7 and the RS eTron's Carbid brakes are not a patch on them, consistently inconsistent.

“You really did send it” loved that comment 😂

That is something I was thinking, why did you set the recuperation to 0 even if you know the breaks might not be designed to handle track usage? why not use the assistive breaking from the recuperation, there is like 4 levels of recuperation, well 5 if you consider 1-pedal a recuperation level.

Hi Niels, greetings from Belgium, from the red GT you met at Fastned Keskatel-Ouest (France), let me know if you do more videos ;)

​​​​​​@FreeMobileGames4u Then the overprice of the EV can be bad for your kind of usage. You would save a good money with a combustion car, even accounting for fuel and maintenance. Once I calculated with a Renault Zoe 110 cv Vs Renault Clio 110 cv, and given price difference, for my usage I would start saving money after 169.000 km and about 15 years!!! Even taking into account some repairs in the combustion car and 3 plug&coild and 3 battery changes. And *not* takimg into account any possible (probably not) battery replacement in the EV. But that was amazing because the Clio was about 16.000 € and the Zoe was about 30.000 €. I have two friends (brothers) with such a Zoe each one of them, and they recently started saving after about 4-4.5 years, but that was because they do 100 km/day, they already have about 140-150.000 km. I know about another guy with a Cupra Born (204 bhp?) 46.000 €, and he says that with current high electricity prices, he manage to make 500 km with 45 €. If that is correct, quite close to a diesel car

So true. Problem is in agressive stance against comustion engine, non in EV cars. Where the electricity come yet you know where from. So back in the point i think a lot more would buy EV if they would not feel it like the only options. I would like see both simultary and I could bet EV would running more often just like you sad, you dont need ride futher.

Still a SUV type of car ....

The ionic has a nice design. My South Korean pals and I bang on each other over previous conduct and cultural differences, but the long-term reliability Kia/Hyundai doesn’t yet match a Toyota, but they are compelling.

@@SuperBubba01 I thought the same but I saw it next to a 3rd gen prius and the rooflines seemed pretty level

It's only 20km. Any family car driven at full speed can do far more than 20 km with 1/4 of the fuel tank.

wow it's long !

Hybrids are the "best" type of vehicle for the environment overall, as well.. ahead of EV's, for sure. Cobalt mining is bad mkay.

​@@hhasteI understand you can only comment on knowledge you're given but I would urge you to do a bit of research on modern battery technology and how much cobalt is actually in them, if any at all in some models. Also cobalt and other rare metals are used in fuel refining and would say to anyone that can actually afford an EV to invest in solar power if at all possible Not only to bring charging emissions to the near zero but it also eventually will pay for itself and earn money.

The battery is from SK Innovation in Korea. Rimac supplies part of the 800V power electronics, afaik

One of the chinese brands, NIO, can swap batteries.

He did a slightly modified Stinger a while back. Tempted to take mine :D

Battery goes in limp mode quicker if you use more regen…

Even when you put your recuperation on off with the steering wheel paddles, it'll still use regenerative braking when using the brake pedal. The consumption is so low because the EV6 can regenerate up to 300kw when the battery is heated up, and only after then, or the ABS is kicking in, it'll use the traction brakes.

Tesla has opened the supercharger at the Nürburgring for all brands recently. You only need the Tesla App to use it.

@@matthiaskunst8336 that's big news I Bet most drivers don't know! It's definitely not enough stalls for weekends though, regular visitors will charge there too

There was a 10 sec fragment in the vlog

Even my South Korean pals think it’s logo is stupid.

it's 70k here in Belgium, massive difference

If you switch from acceleration to full brake very rapidly, the car senses an emergency situation and is using the traction brakes for better brake performance and control only.
