Hey man, i really appreciate how you cover pretty much everything in your videos, on all the snowmobile you try. pretty sure you make the best content out there on snowmobile test. It must of been a hard step for you to learn all this new technology. On the charger part, your comment was pretty accurate except i would of add that the CCS Port it's called, is separated into two categories, one is AC current for home and small chargers. And the bottom two pins is the DC fast chargers so for 50 KW chargers.

@pavmentsurfer13
@pavmentsurfer13 3 года назад
Tiaga has developed a proprietary liquid heating/cooling system to keep the batteries at optimal temps. If they get hot, it cools them down. If its really cold out, it warms them up. It works constantly when the sled is plugged in. If you leave the sled in the cold over night NOT plugged in, it will warm the battery up before you use it. Takes about 2 minutes and only uses %2 of your battery.

@@alftrotter468 it charges easily over night on any 110v residential plug in. If u can plug in a block heater u can charge your sled. Plus when u charge at an overnight stop the battery will stay warm and be ready for optimal performance when u head out.

I haven't seen a whole lot of current bushes along the trail or hundreds of available block heater receptacles in places like Matagami or Sept Isles or Hearst.

@themeach011
@themeach011 3 года назад
@@alftrotter468 it definitely makes no sense if u have to bring a generator lol. If you plan to go for days in the middle of nowhere it's not going to be an option. I'm not sure what portion of the snowmobiling public would be sledding for days and staying at places with no power but I would guess it's probably a fairly small percentage and I'd be happy to pay an extra couple bucks to the hotel to plug in for the night even though they let you plug your truck in for free when it's cold and this will only use about 1$ more power a night than your truck does when it's plugged in. Sledding mecas will catch on when more and more sleds become electric and I can see that they will want to install plugs for people so they will attract a larger clientele to their hotel. It only makes sense that if these become more popular then the services to use them will improve as well. Not going to happen over night

@@polskiewinnipeg the lithium titanate batteries are good for much lower temperatures. I'd be surprised if taiga wasn't using these or similar. These are not normally used in a car as they are slightly more expensive, but the pack is a Lot bigger in a car, so the incremental price difference isn't much in a sled. We used our Tesla right through the winter, but it is the newest iteration from just before Christmas and has much better cold weather performance than the previous version.

@themeach011
@themeach011 3 года назад
Charging infrastructure isn't really that important unless you are wanting to ride several hundred kms a day. If it does 140 kms on a charge and u can plug it in over night to a 110v plug then that will be good enough for me. It will also charge in 2 hours on a 220v plug and 20 mins at an ev fast charger. I think most people think they ride further than they do but if you are a 300kms a day guy then it's not the sled for you at this time.

The first phase of construction, slated for completion in 2022, represents an investment to accelerate mass production of snowmobiles, personal watercraft and side-by-side vehicles slated for 2022.” “This facility, a part of the $185M in recently announced funding, will bolster Taiga into becoming a globally leading OEM for powersports vehicles,” said Samuel Bruneau, CEO of Taiga. “We have seen strong customer demand limited by product availability. This new facility shows Taiga’s continued commitment to be trailbreakers and offer electric vehicles capable of diving mass-market adoption without compromise.”

I wonder if they could do a solar charging setup, or some way to hook up a solar panel? You can get fairly light roll up solar panels so you could take this out ice fishing for the day, throw the solar panel on and let it charge until you are done ice fishing

Are they happy with the 120-130km range? What is there range goal? I don't see it being more than a small niche market until it can somehow do 250mi straight or be able to charge fast enough to be able to ride 250-300mi in a normal day. I'm not anti electric, but I am anti being stuck waiting for a battery to charge when I want to be riding.

Cool unit. Electric is exciting. The new Hummer EV truck is a good example. Decent range & huge power. Love the color of this sled. Overall look...so, so. It won’t trump an SRX on looks. Who is Taiga’s parent co/funding? I assume government/taxpayer involvement to some extent if only in an incentive basis. What is range (generally)? A snowmobile has a few different dynamics that an auto. Charging stations particularly in remote rural areas will be an issue. Mountain areas also. I’m not too worried about starting & other cold weather concerns. It wasn’t long ago when naysayers (incl a couple OEM’s) said a 4Stroke would never work in a snowmobile. Electric definately has a place tho & it’s exciting to see where it’s going.

There is no shared technology between other MFGs. The switch gear is something they were able to source from a common supplier. But the gauge belongs %100 to taiga.

So here is a thought. Right now a snowmobile has CVT and your lucky if 60% of that makes it to the chaincase. Without a clutch in these the 120hp version on these should be similar to the 800 class sleds out now.
@pavmentsurfer13
@pavmentsurfer13 3 года назад
Powerloss through a CVT is approximately %15
@PatriotBrad
@PatriotBrad 3 года назад
@@pavmentsurfer13 its no where near that good on a snowmobile even with good clutching. Add in like 10% loss for chaincase and drive shaft and you end up with the typical track dyno hp 50% of engine hp.

Awesome video! This sled has me very excited. One question though. When i go on snowmobile trips I ride maybe 100 miles a day. We ride pretty hard. Would I be able to ride all day on one charge? How would I charge it at a bar/restaurant on the trail? If it could do this I will order one right now. Thanks
@pavmentsurfer13
@pavmentsurfer13 3 года назад
The range is currently claimed to be around 120-130km under optimal conditions (likely in eco mode as well). If you want to charge on a trip youd have to pack the 120volt charger unit. You cant just plug it in with a traditional extension cord. At 120volts it takes 8-10 hours to fully charge.

@billallen7716
@billallen7716 2 года назад
This is all well and good but what we need to know and what no one is saying is what is charging times?how long can you travel in the different modes? What really happens when you are using headlights and hand warmers,etc.? Do we freeze to get where we want to go or ride in fear of not making it to our destination. One can always siphon a bit of gas on the trailer to get you out of a situation but what do you do when your battery goes dead? What is the life span of these batteries and is it worth replacing them or do you just scrap the sled? What do you do with the old batteries when they are dead? Sooo many questions and not enough answers.l hope you all do your research as you get all excited based on the comments so far.thank you

There is something visceral about the gas sleds. My trail pig is a ZRT 600 and my lake runner is a 98 Tcat 1k, they dont hang with the modern stuff but ya cant beat the sound and feel.

Carbon fiber is still pretty expensive overall, especially when it breaks. Eventually we'll get to the point where it's more widely available but that could be 10+ years down the road. 144km is 89 miles, which isn't bad for touring. But for those who do a lot of trail riding, unless there's charge points along the route, it may not be worth it. Batteries will get better, especially for winter.

Also maybe a program that if you get stuck and by yourself, set a sequence of maybe 2-3 seconds of track spin say every 10 seconds while you push with your tether hooked. Just a thought.

@jeffkreviazuk6840 3 года назад
Like the sled. One day I am sure most sleds will be electric. Will take awhile though, but imagine just before you go outside for a ride, you can use your cell phone to turn on say a heated seat and hand warmers. Interesting!

I began snowmobiling in the mid 70's, I recall all the negativity about oil injection, cuz I bought one of those Yamaha pups. All my riding buddies expected it to Blow up on those cold days. It didn't. Always hard to inject a new concept in any industry. Besides the range and cost there are two killers for myself. First thing - No pull start!! (HeHE) well that'll take gettin used to. 2nd - That beautiful rumble of the 800's coming to life, the smell of that great exhaust left on my snowmobile suit, giving that up? Well thats where I draw the line. I might as well go back to cross country skiing.

Freaking awesome review. I agree with your comment on the usage case, especially when it comes to watercraft. Most people drive it for an hour then park it for a few hours. I own a Tesla and I'm never going back to gas. I love how my house has become my electron "gas station". No more filling up the car for the wife on a Wednesday night when it's -30C. Now I plug in and in the morning it's charged, an pre-heated and ready to go. BTW, what is the usage time like? I couple of hours? Also, I'm an engineer and if you want, I can go over some of the technical details regarding electric vehicles. For example, the different connector types (J1772 vs CCS1 vs Tesla vs Chademo). AC vs DC charging, Kilowatt (KW) and Kilowatt Hours.

You could probably get a vape pen filled with your favorite smelling 2 stroke oil and put it into your inside upper jacket pocket. That way it would also migrate into your helmet while you ride.

This may create a market for two stroke insense. They could mount one of those little holders on the hood that could burn while u ride. Lol
