Uploaded 1 year ago by Battery Life

Video Summary

Battery size is 51 kWh, with 50.8 kWh usable capacity. It has 125 kW (170 hp) and RWD, top speed 160 km/h, 0 to 100 km/h in 7.7 seconds. WLTP range is 350 km. DC charging peak is 90 kW. AC charging is 1 phase and 6.6 kW.
After driving 146 km, the consumption was 27.8 kWh/100km. It was cold, −1.5 °C; the highway was wet. The range display is not very accurate.
At 50% state of charge, it showed way more kilometers than had actually been driven. 87 km were driven to 50%, but it showed 110km range or more.
The temperature in the car at 24 degrees Celsius felt cold, and the seat heating turned off automatically.
For the test trip so far, it used 40 kWh for driving power and 5 kWh for A/C.
The adaptive cruise control won't work during snow. The range display didn’t accurately drop with use. At 50%, it was supposed to show a longer remaining distance. After locking and unlocking the car, the adaptive cruise control worked again; this acts like a reset.

Charging reached 68 kW in the beginning. At 17%, it predicted a complete charge to 9:51, which is 70 minutes. It went from 17% to 80% charge in 37 minutes.
There is no rain sensor and no backup camera in the car. Parking sensors only in the back.
The interior lights are only in the front.

Normal driving feel is totally fine; cornering felt good. Driving on the country road felt good. Highway driving felt good at 130 km/h. Overall driving is a pleasure.
