I drove Kia EV3 Long Range until the battery died

Video Summary

Here is a summary of the video:

The Kia EV3 long-range version was tested in a zero-mile test to determine its performance when driven to 0% battery and 0 km range. The car exhibits a slight power limit when the battery is cold. During testing, the power limit decreased as the battery percentage decreased, and the car entered "turtle mode" before reaching zero. At zero, the car stops but can be placed into gear for reversing; to be driven again, the car must be charged. Driving the car to zero with no remaining energy does not "brick" the car. The EV3 linearly decreased in power until it shut down. Once the car reached a state of low charge, the car was slow and almost undrivable. The power meter in the car itself doesn't show the actual power limit and must be measured another way.
