I Built a Vehicle That Proves ELECTRIC is WAY Better Than GAS... 

thats what i was thinkin

Just wait until he keeps getting smoked by gas engines and can't figure it out. He's not looking at the power curves of the motors AT ALL

8 electric*

Wonder if he’ll see this comment. I bet that reaction will be funny

Yeah, I keep using combos because the available gear ratios are too close. Having one electric gives the car serious grunt on the low end until the gas engines are spooled up.

I was about to comment

seeing him skip the tutorials is maddening, especially because 20 seconds later he says "this makes no sense" and it was explained perfectly in the tutorial.

To be honest, the parts are so cheap that I think watching them is more hassle than the part is worth in currency, compared to just doing one race and earning enough to buy any part multiple times over.

Can you also tell him to change the graphics settings to Medium? The image quality just stays the same but it removes all these annoying flashes on metal parts.

@@anteshell It is better to do it in the tech tree career as you can get more expensive parts earlier and therefore using more money than you should/would

Same

longer too, only really did the EV build

Was going to say... And using a small electric motor or two to act as starter motors would make the need for low gearing a lot less, allowing for more efficient transmission setups.

In the game the electric motors only have more torque than gas engines in the low rpm’s(with Kan’s gear ratio in this video, near 30 kph is where the torque curve of the tier 1 engine has superior torque compared to an tier 2 electric) From how Kan raced in this video he never really used the low rpm higher torque (which can be seen in the bottom right corner during the races in this video where the white line remained in the right most 2/3 of the torque curve(the range of the curve where gas engines have higher torque compared to electric on a 1 yo 1 ratio)) Meaning that Kan doesn’t need the better low rpm torque of the electric as the rpm never drops that low and even in a single gear ratio setup like in this video the torque curve of the engines would have provided around 10-20%increase(something like that) in torque(acceleration = more time at higher speeds not to mention the max rpm stretching further) Also from other YT research that I have done on the game it also seems as though a bunch of stacked tier 2 gas engines might even yield better performance than the use of tier 4 gas engines in terms of size and maybe even power(however I haven’t actually tried comparing any of those things myself and I think it really just might be the smaller engines more convenient size as compared to the larger tier 4 ones) I myself also found myself doing the campaign with only electric engines, however this is because I knew that they were technically not as good as the gas engines in the game and would provide more of a challenge and I wanted more challenge I also believe that Kan built an awesome electric build in this video which in many ways was OP in comparison to the handling of my electric builds(though I also believe that I severely lack in skill in the driving department at least after watching how Kan just crushes the skill portions and just about never fails a turn :)

But you need to reach this high speed, so acceleration is important. You can have a car that has 1000mp/h and takes a year to reach it :P

The electric engines will majorly limit your top speed doing it that way

​@@funkymunky7935I thought the electric engines just turn off and don't affect anymore once they reached their maximum

​@@thetruetri5106 they will turn off and become dead weights on your vehicle. Electrics are not good option for top tier performance because they are too fuckin heavy and give less power than smaller combustion engines.

@@sopadebronha ah yes the weight. That makes sense

@@thetruetri5106 People seem to underestimate the importance of weight and size when design the cars. Heavier vehicles will need more power to accelerate, will take longer distances to break and will lose grip more often on tight corners. If your center mass is too tall your are more likely to roll and if its not centered longitudinally, your car will have uneven cornering. If you make your car too tall or too wide you will increase air drag which massively reduces acceleration and top speed.

4 wheel steering will as well, but can be twitchy and extremely unstable at times.

@@s1n1stersixsgaming8 don't do 4 wheel steering on racing builds

what? That's a thing? Newton left the chat

Devs have been watching too many of those perpetual motion/free energy videos on YT. They probably stick a cocktail stick in their phone charge port to stop ads as well... 🤔😀

No, it will be 3-speed

@@lees4416 You obviously don't understand combinatorics.

@@lees4416 you clearly don't own an air fryer

@@lees4416 You're miscalculating in that there's actually 4 combinations. Let's just say 1 means the shifters "in" and 2 is it being "out". The combos are 1:1, 1:2, 2:1, and 2:2. Even though by default one of those is always engaged, it's technically a 4-speed as that would be considered gear 1.

Sure, but it'd take up an unholy amount of room. It's difficult to get a system like that to work without causing gear interference. So either you have that axis-9 to make room for every gear to have adequate space and redundancy to work for every other gear, or you can at best get only a 3-speed on a compact scale. You're not wrong, it's just that for the purposes of this game, it's difficult to do without blowing up the size or over complicating the system.

Where kAN is in the game gearbox is a must have

I can make you a car with that gas engine and it will feel great to drive!

Actually, electric cars can use two gears in real life!
