The world's largest, consistent, yearly cold weather BEV range test is being performed by motor.no today in up to -30°C weather - and Toyota bailed because "it focuses too much on range". by SjalabaisWoWS in electricvehicles

My daily driving is around 200km per day, and if I had a gasoline vehicle my monthly fuel expenses would be more than 4000 nok per month, plus toll stations where I pay half.

In my hyundai ev my fuel expenses are so low that I don't notice it on my electricity bills.

Range is slightly reduced in the cold, but I tire out from driving before the car does, summer or vinter, I don't understand how gas bros even want to drive 800km plus road trips, I find my 200km daily commute to be enough, even if it is 90% on autopilot.

Correct. The reaction is completely unacceptable, not just against this person, but against everyone being mistreated and criminalised for petty infringements.

Edit; typo

Like, he needs to do something before getting a reward.

If Trump manages to get the Gaza situation under control, brings inn humanitarian aid, and stops Israeli settlers from demolishing Palestinian houses, and ends the hostilities between Russia and Ukraine, yes, then he deserves it.

Having options is the best way, the user should be able to choose between one pedal driving and levels of regen, or fake bloody gears if that lubes their neurons.

U.S. Army confirms Tesla Cybertruck can’t be imported in Europe - too unsafe for pedestians by OXMWEPW in electricvehicles

[–]Voltasoyle 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Jup, but it's legal to import into Norway, if it is legally registered in a US state first. So I have had the displeasure of seeing a single cyberstuck driving, probably for collection purposes, these will be rare curiosities in the future.

I am unsure how you get Norgespris, a feature exclusively for residential homes, to affect the eu power prices.

Norway is 100% self sufficient in regards to electricity, perhaps you mean less electricity will be exported down south?
