Again, as always another interesting and informative video. What I like about yr videos, apart from whatever aspect of the car you are investigating, is that I can use them to get to know the menu system, as I seldom give myself the time to delve into the system's intricacies. As regards the test. Here in Denmark we are blessed with warmer although, unfortunately, more variable weather than in Sweden, making it difficult to conduct an efficiency review of the various modes under the same constant conditions. Therefore a really great help that you made this video. Thanks for that.

Hi per. I am delighted that you share your passion as a BMW iX1 with us regarding the pros and cons based on your experience. I note that you state that your iX1 has received extra protection for the paintwork in the form of Gyeon matte evo cera ceramic coating. in this connection, I would like to hear about your experience with this kind of coating and where you can get the specific coating done in Sweden (if someone like me manages to find a workshop in Malmö)😁.

interesting to hear about the app. When my iX1 arrives i plan to link my Raspberry Pi running "home assistant" to the car via the connected drive service-the same one the apps use. If I also got a mismatch between car and phone stats, it'll be interesting to see which one the home assistant plug-in will follow. I suspect it'll be consistent with the app

Thanks Per, another excellent video as always. I have referred to your videos more than the iX1 handbook! I see you did the tests in regular 'D' mode: do you think results might have been different in "B" mode, especially in Efficient? All that extra brake regeneration might have made it more worthwhile.

@swede-365

9 ай бұрын

Thank you 🙏 I have tested both B and the adaptive regeneration and the adaptive is more efficient and also gives you a good flow in the driving. It’s almost like autonomous driving as it adjusts for cars in front of you, curves, crossings etc.

Thanks for a very informative video. I notice that your winter tires are on 20 inch rims. I wonder what the range results would have been on 17 inch rims. I'm considering ordering the car with 17 inch winter and 18 inch summer tires.

Thanks for the comparison. I have 20i and the figures are also different between the app and the car. It seems that the app reads or estimates something different. From my experience, I think that the difference between personal and efficient is not so large. Did you understand what is the blue bar that goes up and down in the main screen near the power throttle in efficient mode?

It’s the recommended throttle response for efficient driving. You should try to keep the acceleration in that range.

@swede-365

Жыл бұрын

Not that often because I have good charge possibilities at home and at work. But I have had EVs for many years so of course a lot of DC charging during the years.

What I like about the efficient mode is that the cruise control is less aggressive in the efficient mode. What I mean by that is that in the efficient mode, the cruise control will accelerate the car up to the required speed in a gentle way, whereas in the personal mode, the cruise control will accelerate the car up to the required speed too quickly and aggressively for my liking.

I have told them to contact BMW and ask for the solution they did for M bilar in Västerås in this matter.

Before my iX1 Fully Charged I had a Skoda Inyaq with steering wheel paddles to ajust the regeneration. Before that I had a Hyundai Ioniq with paddles. I think this option would also have been nice in BMW. After all, BMW is a drivers car, and the driver should be in control, not leave the regeneration to adaptive control which I think does not work very well. @@swede-365

Hei. Ser at WLTP rekkevidden er 438 km. Praktisk tur som din gir altså ca 100 km mindre rekkevidde? En WLTP test skal også inneholde variert kjøring. Det har nettopp vært en vintertest i Norge nå (NAF vintertest) hvor det var mye og lange bakker ( start omtrent på havnivå og avsluttet høyt) og de kjørte bilen til den stoppet. Resultatet på din test var omtrent som denne vintertest. Det virket som du hadde relativt flat vei så trodde du skulle kommet noe lengre. Venter på ix1 i april😊

You are talking a about a massive battery. I seriously doubt this could make any difference. What do you think would affect this? Higher CPU load? It would be absolutely negligible. Same as charging your phone while driving. Think of your car as a giant freezer capable of massive energy consumption. Your navigation, phone, … in comparison is the tiny Led on the freezers display, consuming a tiny fraction of all that power. Again, negligible.. Also, I own an iX1 and frequently alternate betwee Waze/Gmaps through carplay and the built in navigation. Totally within expectations, it makes 0 difference.
