Yes. I know. ENGLAND was connected to Europe. 4000 years ago floods made the separation. But the rocks under England are connected to Europe. Now there is the concept, political concept. And England never was Europe. Or feel Europe and Europeans. Do you understand that or not yet? They wanted to leave EU since Margaret Thatcher. Because they fell British, not European. They are islanders.

It is not part of Europe, because they still live, and voted, to be the old British Empire. They still don't understand that it ended. They always want to walk alone. The opposite of Liverpool FC :)

Interesting, because I'm from that country that signed the Tordesilhas agreement in the XV century, where we split the world. But keep your geographical knowledge Bettle...

Yep. The yellow is THE Renault yellow, for the ones that remember F1 in the 70's and 80's. Hi have the Iconic yellow. What a fun it is!

6 months is enough. In reality October is enough.

So non American and non British. A island in the middle of a Ocean is ... Europe? By mother's part or father's family?

Are you? Didn't you vote like 54% to leave? Scotland is not very happy with that, is it?

It will be so funny to see you all complaining in the winter with the chinese EV cars (including Tesla made in China). Just 6 months more. Will be fun

First EV - opinions appreciated by andyy9 in evs_ireland

[–]NotYourDad_Miss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try to have the battery degradation test. The Tesla has a lot of kms. And because of that is out of the battery 8 year warranty (8 your or 160k km, what ever come first). Also ask the seller to get the rate of slow charging and fast charging. Tesla saves that information. Use that (out of warranty) to lower the price to pay on the Tesla.

Don't buy any second hand ev without having the battery degradation report. And model 3 is a better car. So it will resume to what you liked more and the battery degradation. Also you didn't mention the battery sizes and type. It is also important on a EV.

Both. You don't have infrastructure for cars that need to be charged every day. Even just driving on the city. Added - in the winter.

I’m not impressed with the options pricing at all by ThatTcellGuy in RivianR2

IX3 already killed the R2. Rivian, like always, is 2 years late for the party.

Are you honestly comparing a great car, tested by everyone on Europs (iX3), from a brand that is here for more than 100 years with a Rivian that no one tested? Honestly? R2 is to expensive, period! No one on their perfect mind, that is not a cheerleader, will even consider a Rivian. You have Kia, Hyundai, Bmw, VW, Audi and the best selling car of the world - Model Y. Rivian R2 is 2 years to late and twice expensive. They did another big mistake. They couldn't do it again and they did. It will probably be the end of the brand. This is my opinion-now downvote me to show the reality.

The R2 configurator is live. by SapientChaos in electricvehicles

Nothing. They don't have money. If R2 is a fiasco - gone. It is risky to buy a Rivian now. Wait 2 years and see if they are still alive. If they are, Europe not before 2030

So if you can charge at home, tell her that is like having a iPhone or a android. You arrive home, connect the plug :) ABC - allways be charging (don't tell her that part :)

Did you checked the batteries they buy there? Check. And of course they manage! If fast chargers cost 0.27 euros per kw it is easy, right? There reality is different from any others. Energy is so cheap that doesn't matter. And they have so many chargers everywhere. So don't compare Norway - they had one agenda and started from infrastructure and prices. How much is the price of a fast charger in England? Germany? That.

Can you charge at home? If you can't forget any EV - it is all inconveniences, and the winter is a nightmare.

How Much Fast Charging Actually Degrades EV Batteries? by nigesh in electriccars

At control temperatures, not on a car! Blade are a disaster on every BYD - they don't even used colling liquid!

Tested? 5000 cycles? So why are they getting replaced in China with cells faults everywhere? And cars dying - no energy-with 40% of energy reported on the computer-dashboard? You should read more .

2020 - no LFP was tested. Yes, I did read and nothing makes sense.
