@nevco8774 4 жыл бұрын

Yes, considering the fact that just a few will be sold. However knowing Honda knack for oddities I can bet that what design in circuitry and battery is today in this car will be extremely onsolete in 20 years and definitely incompatible with whatever will be standard at that time. To restore such piece of history one will need a powertrain from Tesla which by that time will be small enough to fit it. Forget about original screens in working conditions though.

Honda should urgently correct the charging curve via a software update

@rickwookie 4 жыл бұрын

Exactly. It can't possibly need to step down so abruptly at those points, but rather ramp down slowly over the cycle, and the net result would be much improved charge speed overall. They need to unlock a little of that oversized top buffer too.

@amiddled 4 жыл бұрын

It isn't a question of "correcting" the charging curve, like it is some bug to be fixed. They've arrived at this as a result of the properties of the battery and to preserve the life of it. Sure, small tweaks might be made, but don't expect miracles that go beyond what the battery is capable of...

@rickwookie 4 жыл бұрын

Andy Middleditch Yes and no. The properties of the battery pack are not significantly different to that of any other EV, and certainly there is nothing that warrants such an abrupt stepped reduction in charge current at those points (~20%, 40%, 70% & 95%) rather than a smooth ramped reduction between those points.

@HowlUKx 3 жыл бұрын

I’m sure there was a software update just prior to the UK launch that delayed the launch. I’ve had mine since launch and it definitely does not do these speeds and never has. Just going from 50% to 80% takes half an hour. It’s usually about 17-20kW. It’s not the chargers as I’ve watched other cars charge at 40+ and then plugged myself in and watched it crawl along at less than 20. I think it throttles harder than this video suggests and I remember watching this video long before the first few cars arrived in the UK.

The Honda BEV I drive, the Clarity, charges @41 kW to 75% SOC, then 27 kW to 95% SOC. The Honda e charge rate seems disappointing, especially since the pack has higher voltage than the Clarity. Short range is OK IF you can charge quickly.

Question for Bjørn Nyland: At what point on the Honda e discharge does the " low battery warning indicator" come on? Reason I ask is that the Honda e brochure states: PUBLIC DC CHARGE CCS2 50KW 31 MINUTES* 80% CHARGE *Charge times are measured from the low battery warning indicator. It took 31 minutes to go from 25% to 80% in your video, so does the warning come on as early as 25% remaining charge?!

@bjornnyland 4 жыл бұрын

Low battery warning comes at 15 %.

@rickwookie 4 жыл бұрын

Bjørn Nyland So that’s between 2 minutes (15%) and 36 minutes (80%) in your video. 34 minutes vs their claimed 31. That’s 10% longer to charge than they are claiming. Of course they’re also claiming the car has a 35.5 kWh battery pack, which is an even more questionable claim.

@zavierorlos1948 4 жыл бұрын

how do we know if the batteries of an EV are any good? .. i mean do they change from car to car? the all dont use the same brands right? .... Another question is i heard like a month ago some Guy working at Honda in UK saying that the Honda charges so slow to extend the life of a Batterie, is that true? cause if it is like that, then the price is actually no so bad, cause the car will last longer

Of the 4 cars, the Honda does not have a fossil version like the other 3. You would think it would do better given it is a ground up purposed built EV.

Bjørn Nyland I was going by the amount of charge claimed delivered by the chargers (in kWh) divided by 0.8 (90%-10%). Was this not correct? *I took off the approximately 2% already delivered to the Peugeot at the start of the video (presumably to bring it up to 10%?)

@davithdevries6774 4 жыл бұрын

@@rickwookie that is not the right way to calculate, because it does not account for DC charging loss, which depends on ambient and battery temperature, and internal resistance of the battery. It is about 10% loss. So if you pay for 40kWh, about 36kWh is stored in the battery, 4kWh is heat loss in charging proces. So you should multiply by about 0.9 to get approximate nett capacity. But eup was charged in winter, Honda E in summertime, making it harder to compare. It is more reliable to do it Bjorns way with a range test at slow speed (low heat loss), preferably in summer climate, and then multiply consumption with km driven, divided by SoC used. This does have another inaccuracy, namely the consumption meter, how accurate it is and what it includes. But it should be more accurate.

@rickwookie 4 жыл бұрын
