@carminerocco@jefferinc@brandenflasch Looks like the iX3 was just more efficient :
"The BMW iX3 has driven 300 km, and has 610 km range and 60 percent battery left. The consumption is 14.1 kWh/100 km. Lucid Gravity has a 336 km left, a consumption of 17.5, and battery percentage of 54."
(17.5kWh*3)/46% = 114kWh
@nerdalator@Alex_RLT_@brandenflasch And it comes with the same problems:
Just because a plug fits, doesn't mean it will work the way you expect.
Don't get me wrong, I love USB-C. But it's been a *very* bumpy road to get here.
NACS is fine. But CCS was also fine, just bulky and with a crap latch.
@RealMattMalecki@Alex_RLT_@brandenflasch Type 2 is effectively just as convenient as NACS. It's a little bit bigger, but not in a catastrophic way.
How often do you hear Tesla people in Europe complaining that the plug is too large?
@macheroadtrip I'm assuming you plugged in @ >30%
Wish my Rivian would do this. It's technically faster, but everything past ~50% is worse than the lightning.
@jasonEVadvocate@brandenflasch 3phase means you can get 22kW AC charging at 32A. Or 11kW with just 16A. Much cheaper cabling and infrastructure for public charging with higher speeds to boot.
@koalafiedtesla@brandenflasch Public L2 charging could take the place of a lot of low power DCFC for approximately the same price as current L2 infrastructure.
@koalafiedtesla@brandenflasch Home charging doesn't need 3 phase.
But imagine if your public L2 chargers were 11 or 22kW like they (mostly) are in Europe.
You could actually add like 50% battery while you ate lunch.
@AliceFromQueens I can never tell if it's sexisim or partisanship (or both).
She doesn't have the precision of an engineer or lawyer, but she's definitely extremely smart.
@SoundDobad I know this may sound petty, but I canโt stand it when people put photoshop a meth pipe in my mouth. A crack pipe doesnโt have that little bowl at the end. This is why we canโt trust AI. Please make the appropriate edit. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
