Sleeping Overnight In Nexon EV | How Much Does The Battery Discharge On A/C? 

Summer weather can change the consumption

Yes.

@@Amit.singh1995- Not by that much, Nexon EV can consume at max 8% an hr in peak summer which is 8 rs per hour. You can watch those video on my channel

​@@GreenDriveIndiasir in winter to keep warm heater is needed not the compressor....is it so? In that case how is the battery consumption?

@@logingoogly consumption is in line with ac usage. 5-8% an hour , depending on temperature difference

Lol

This method can save a lot on hotel bills !!! Why book cheap AC rooms if you have Nexon EV !!

Thanks a lot for your support and feedback.

Glad we could answer your question. Thank you Dhaval for your support :)

Thank you so much Sai for the wonderful comment. Means a lot. Will bring more informational content. Thanks again :)

Thank you so much Vaibhav for your support. Means a lot to us :)

@@RahulKaushik09 bhai hum tata nexon ev ko kullu manali le ke ja sakte hai

Bhai leja sakte hai, plan bhi kiya hai humne par Omicron restrictions ki wajah se plan postpone karna pada.

Hi Alok, does your variant have volume knob and other buttons at the bottom of the screen?

@@RahulKaushik09 No

Hi Mayank, we tried that @3:50 in this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JUwnmIST4cA.html But the result stayed the same, the back part of the seat doesn't sit flat like in some other cars :)

Thank you, glad you liked it. :)

Glad we could provide the video. Thank You. :)

Thanks a lot for your support. Means a lot to us.

Haha, I know what you mean. Its a boon to have an EV in those situations :)

Thank you so much Vijit :)

Hi, we have tried it but still it doesn't lay flat. It still remains a bit lifted from floor. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JUwnmIST4cA.html

@@RahulKaushik09 you can remove the rear seat base by pulling it forward & then folding down the backrest to make them flat, it is like this since nexon launched. Hope it helps.

Bro I read the rumour but weird part is that 2021 MG ZS EV has 40 kWh battery and does around 330 range. Don't know how Tata will manage 400 in 40 kWh. Also I won't spend more than the current price on Nexon platform. Anything higher, then ZS EV is better value.

Bro AC in Nexon is on a weaker side. If the car is running for long time specially while it's stationery, it will divert part of the compressor power to cool the batteries. In warmer climate it's more noticable.

Just make sure that the blower is not in recirculation mode. If it is, then it will fog up. Switch it to the other one where fresh air flows from outside

Hi Akshay, it was resolved in my second service. It is an alignment issue in the door. I have made a video and explained what they did. As much as it was weird, it did the job and now I don't hear any noise. It's not the glass, not the door panel that makes noise. Something that Nexon has with the door frame on passenger side.

Hi Raghavendra, first of all congratulations on booking your Nexon EV. I am sure you will love the car. Being your first car, you will have an advantage that you will get accustomed to driving an EV, and not have to change your driving style to suit an EV like people who switch from ICE cars. You will really enjoy the performance and how convenient it is to drive in the city. As I recommend to every new EV owner, I will suggest to take short trips nearby your city or drive it more often, so you understand the car better. Once you will get the confidence that how much range you can extract in various scenarios, then you will not have any range anxiety. I hope you get your car soon and if you ever have any issues or doubts, feel free to drop me a comment and I will always try to answer your questions :)

@@RahulKaushik09 Hi, Rahul, what's the approximate range if we need to recharge at 20% ? I feel range is not much good, though not tested range in new car till now . Any driving tips ? I drive in congested city roads 30-40 km/hr and try to use single pedal whenever possible, but still range is not as expected

Thanks a lot Pawan.

Hi Vikram, we did that next day after we shot the video. We were going through the manual to see if seats can fold flat and then we found out the the bottom part opens up as well. Then you pointed it out correctly, the seat still sits 4 inches higher than the floor and one will still need a mattress to level it just like you said. I really hope that seats can go flat as that is more convenient then carrying additional mattresses. Thanks for sharing the info :)

Hi Taseer, during my time using it I never heard the compressor kick in. So I think it won't consume as much power as it would if AC was on.

@@RahulKaushik09 Actually, in diesel and petrol vehicles, the coolant heats up as the engine heats up. And this coolant circulates in the heater coil and creates hot air in the car. Since an electric car does not have an engine, how does it produce hot air?

As per my research, they are using resistive heating system, basically in easy terms they have a heater element that has resistive wires which might be connected to a controller that manages how much energy from the battery is supplied. The energy from the battery is used to heat up the wires and then the blower passes the air through it that eventually heats up the cabin. Now they might be using more advanced version of it but I really doubt because winters in India are short lived.

Nexon ev adas too.

Hi Krushna, honestly if you travel around 170 in a day then Nexon EV is good, but if you travel 400 KM in a day then it won't be possible without charging the car. So if you are in a place where fast chargers are not available, then you are stuck. With around 170 km of running a day, you will save a lot of money, but then again with 400 km of running and without a fast charger will create more issues. So my recommendation is that with 170 km of running, go for it and buy. But 400 km running without fast charger around, don't buy. Hope it helps :)

@@RahulKaushik09 thanks a lot.. 400km is in mubai pune or mubai nashik so fast charge or normal charge are avilble.. so it's not 1 side 400km in a day I have hold for 5 to 6 hrs on site so topup the car is not that big problem

@@krushnay Oh yes, then its not an issue at all. In fact on highway you will get better range compared to driving in local because you will be able to keep constant speed and a flat energy graph. In that case you should get an EV, even if you stay at a site for 6 hours, you can easily gain back 60% battery. Plus if you reach the site at minimum of 30% battery, by the time you are done your work after 5-6 hours, you will easily have 80-90 battery available. Plus those highway stretches have many chargers now, so you don't have to worry much. You have made the right choice by booking Nexon EV. Stick with it, you will save a lot on fuel cost and maintenance. Hope you get your delivery soon. Congrats in advance :)

Yes, in fact, we have done various such tests in our previous videos. Thanks for the feedback.

Thank you Arpit

thanks a lot.

Yes , why not

Thank You.

The car was running for 5.5 hours, consumed almost 11% battery and temperature was set at 23 degrees.

We recently made a video of our experience during summer. Sharing the link below. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JldA5S5U75s.html

Thank You

Hi Priyajit, first of all congratulations for booking the car. Trust me you will love it. The car can easily do that range, no issues at all. You will enjoy driving it because it's so fun, and will bring a smile to your face everytime you drive and feel the power. So I feel you won't regret it at all.

@@RahulKaushik09 Thank U so much sir. ❤️...

Carbon Monoxide in an electric car? Where does that get emitted from in an electric car? Bro you gotta check your facts.

@@RahulKaushik09 ok 😃😃😃😃sorry…no role of CO in EV💐🙏my comment was not for electric car..

Hi Akshaya, I have never faced D to N issue with the car. It's more common in cars where owner just bring the car in ready mode in go instead of doing the three step boot up process.

Please share about the process. I’ve booked the nexon EV XZ+ dark edition and I’m hoping to receive the delivery in March. Researching as much as possible for a smooth transition from ICE to EV. Also, this is my very first car owned so it’s extra special!

Bro I am really happy for you. You will surely love the car. I will be making a tips and tricks video soon to answer all questions. For now just posting how to start the car so you get basic idea. When you sit in the car for first time, you press start button once without pressing the brake pedal. The key fob will appear on screen. 2) Press start button again for second time without pressing the brake pedal. This time centre screen will turn on and DRL outside will turn on. At this time you will see the message on the screen to press brake pedal and start button. 3) 3rd time you have to first press brake pedal, you will hear motor running for few seconds. As soon as that sound stops, press start button and the car will be in ready mode now ready to drive. Hope it helps :)

Thank you, Rahul. Being used to a geared ice, this sure will be a change. Apparently a lot of women generally prefer automatic cars (my friends too), I enjoy the geared one. So this will be a big shift. Will keep you posted.

Tab bhi flat nahi hoti. Pehle seekhlo flat hona kise bolte hai. Trunk ka floor height upar rehta.

Humne is video @3:50 pe karke dekha tha, tab bhi flat nahi hoti, trunk ki floor se uthi rehti hai. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JUwnmIST4cA.html

Hi Vipul, have you looked at the new Tigor EV? Not sure what state you live in, but if you still have subsidies in your state on EV then it can be a good value purchase. For local it is a fantastic car and you will save a considerable amount. Maybe take a Test Drive and see if you like it. With no road tax, registration cost, plus subsidy it should fall in your budget.

@@RahulKaushik09 Thank you so Much Rahul for your Prompt reply surely I will seek for tigor test drive i stay in delhi & I have checked with dealer they are saying no to subsidy . Though I didn't like the look of Tigor much.

Bhai sab surface pe depend karta hai, agar plain area hai toh 220 se 240km ke beech main mil jaani chahiye range aapko.

Are you dumb not at all do this..

@@aashishazyan2689 Agar wo feature nexon me nai hai to bolo not possible. Isme dumb ki kya bat?

Hi Smart, yes you can do that. Only downside is that the car will charge slightly slowly like any other EV.

@@RahulKaushik09 thanks Rahul. It’s good to turn on AC while charging at dc fast charger. I have booked my nexon ev in nov. Waiting for it to arrive.

Thank you for your feedback.

Almost flat, there stays a height of about 4 inches if you look from the trunk side.

Bhai estimate diya tha jab ki aap baat kar rahe ho kyunki us time mere pass exact figures nahi thi. Aap 12% ka drain lelo 5 hours main. Tab bhi I feel theek hai.

Nahi hota bhai. Tab bhi seat aur floor main 3 ya 4 inch a gap hai. Is video main humne karke dekh liya tha. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JUwnmIST4cA.html

@@RahulKaushik09 Haan aisey hi hota hai

Thank you for your feedback.

Hi Aj, thing is with international EV's that he test, they come equipped with a heat pump, while the Nexon EV doesn't have a heat pump. Now Tesla is having some major issue with warming cars in winters especially in Model 3 and Y. Which makes it inefficient, a complete opposite of why it was introduced in first place. In my testing I have seen A/c consuming more power while cooling, compared to heating. One reason can be that the compressor doesn't kick in and it's more of controlled resistive heating.

@@RahulKaushik09 tesla never actually had heat pumps previously..they realised that maintaining the temperature is easier with a heat pumps very late and introduced it when it became obvious that heat pumps are more efficient in utilising the same amount of energy that the car would otherwise use during resistive heating If you watched his recent thailand series, he explained in detail about why his tesla in hot conditions is more efficient while cooling vs his tesla in Norway trying to keep the car warm You should probably do some more crazy stuff with the Nexon like he does ..lot of data to be found We still don't know what's the regen capacity of Nexon EV.. ..I know that the kona gets a 100kw regen motor .but i don't know about the Nexon and MG EZ EV yet

Yup I am aware, the heat pump and octovalve were introduced with 2021 model year and its been having issues ever since. The one I used back in Canada had humming sound and the heating wasn't as good as the one without it. So much that had to take it to Tesla service where they retro fit a sound insulation blanket sort of thing around it. Many owners had it done later on. It makes a difference but not much. Now the insulation comes through factory as standard. But till date heat pump can't do with Canadian winters. Hope they do a recall soon coz software update isn't working. I have yet to watch his Thailand series, will do it soon. From what I have heard from people at Tesla service and fellow owners regarding heat pump is, the thing was introduced to bring down energy consumption and use energy more efficiently. But what we have seen atleast in Canada is that owners are cranking up the heat to the max for it do it job which it still falls short of. Some are saying that it's a software issue where the systems are letting coolant flood into the heat pump really quickly, which makes it over work. Now that has also been linked to high energy consumption as well as high rate of failures. Because the pump has been over working, failure rate is very high. This has plagued Model 3 and Y ever since the pump was introduced. So we have to wait and see whether the software update fix and a car with new hardware is still inefficient or it becomes efficient. The car's he has tested had those issues, so I am not sure if the results will be accurate. Tesla hasn't been forthcoming all this while, but now that the government is investigating, we will see what the actual root cause was. So if I go back while winter is lasting, will test it out in a new car. If not I am sure he will do it again :)

@@RahulKaushik09 yeah definitely a software issue. A simple fix but they will take their time to get it right as expected Also, I think that seat warmers would do well here in india. Rather than installing a full heat pump in Nexon or other EVs. A simple seat heater should be enough for keeping passengers warm and would end up being cheaper, efficient and simple to install Though it won't help the BMS in anyway.. Like the kona has it ..or some other ICE cars have Retro fitting it is really easy on any car as well

I agree with you on seat warmers. It will be a great addition. Heat pump will unnecessarily increase the cost of the car. Also our winters are shortlived and temperatures don't go sub zero that much. So the resistive heating should be sufficient. What EV will you buy in India if you have a choice today?

Bro I have submitted the English Subtitles for my videos, but I am having issues with RU-vid showing them on the videos. Have reached out to support, hope it gets resolved soon.

@@RahulKaushik09 thanksssss

Hi Saurabh, we tried, but still it isn't flat floor. We will show it in the next video.

Saw what it looks like in your recent video, thanks for trying this out! 🙂

Seat fold karne ke baad bhi seat floor se 4 Inch upar rehti hai. Flat floor nahi banta. To kuch farak nahi padta.

Two step process 1. The rear seat cushions ca be folded towards the backside of front seats 2. The rear seats can be then folded down, so that it sits perfectly for a flat bed arrangement.

Someone has posted a video already ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-M_kyNA1nK5k.html

Hi Harish, it doesn't sit flat with the floor. If you the video you posted, from 3:36 onwards you will see that the seats still sits atleast 4 inch higher. So it's pretty much the same thing.

Okay Rahul. I'm sure you'd have tried it beforehand. Thank you once again. Kudos to you for posting nice creative videos on NEV 👌🙏

By your logic you still must be using a landline phone. The day you will start using a mobile phone, we will talk about how EV's work. Till that time try using yellow pages and make some calls to find out something about how EV's work.

It's great to have opinions, but don't utter nonsense thoughtless because here we are a part of EV community with thousands of members and this has never been a concern for sane ones. 10 years ago the petrol prices were nearly 50% less than what they are today, so did you ditch driving a vehicle and been rolling on bicycle ever since?
