So last month I traded in my variety Rover for a Nissan Leaf. لا حقا.
After my very first 1,000 miles right here are some rambling thoughts, early observations and opinions on living with an EV…
ورقة الخريف
I’ve been driving SUV’s for much more than 7 years, but in 2013 I had my very first test drive in an electric automobile and it’s been on my mind ever since. This isn’t something I’ve chose to do on a whim.
In purchase for our household to try living with an EV one of our cars and trucks had to go. With a little petrol saloon and a 3 heap 4.4L V8 diesel in the garage, in one method it wasn’t a difficult decision to make.
In another method of course it was. providing up the comfort, equipment and the high driving setting in specific will be difficult as I go back to sitting in a lower, smaller car.
قبيح لطيف
There’s no good method to put it, the leaf has a deal with only a mom could love. The shape of those front headlights is functional, managing the airflow around the bodywork. but Tesla can make an aero efficient car that’s stunning too.

It seems well developed (in Sunderland) and does have personality. It’s bigger than it looks, can take 5 adults and has a good sized boot too.
My better half had only one stipulation about the new car, it had to have heated seats. That implied going for the Tekna design which includes some other upgrades like a Bose noise system, 360 degree outside video camera configuration and a leather interior, vegans requirement not apply.

Getting the automobile enrolled on the ironically named ‘Nissan Connect’ system was painful. It took a number of days to get the app paired with our Leaf and there was even an excursion under the bonnet for a serial number engraved on the motor at the request of the support staff. It was disappointing after the outstanding experience we had with the salesman at the Belfast dealership.
When we lastly got the automobile linked we got an email confirmation which contained an inaccurate URL that result in even much more head scratching and lost time too.
I tried difficult to get somebody in Nissan to allow me to share my experience and tips and save others from going with the same pain (some have even provided up). but in spite of tweets emails and on the internet chats I got nowhere.
The web interface to the automobile is sluggish and poorly designed. The app is no better, although there are much more contemporary interfaces from third party apps like EVA for iOS and leaf manager for Android.
You can inspect on the specify of charge and begin the climate manage remotely with the apps. Usefully the on-board timer can schedule the automobile to pre-heat the cabin for you each morning while still linked to the mains.

The cabin is a good location to be and that incredibly strange and eerie silence as you back out of the garage each morning never gets old.
That sound, or lack of it, is something that’s commonly overlooked with an EV, but it makes it such a enjoyable experience, one that you truly appreciate when you go back to a routine car. The lack of vibrations, best from the starter motor on, truly does make a difference. My better half will take the leaf at any chance over the petrol car. and that’s not just because she doesn’t have to fuel it, she really prefers its quiet, smooth drive too.
Once you’re behind the wheel, utilizing the Eco mode dulls the acceleration for the most cost-effective driving. pressing the throttle flat finds a button on the floor that allows you to quickly over-ride it and temporarily access full power if required. It feels pleasantly torquey and is decently quick 0-30 and you can quickly invoke the traction manage on a moist road.
Of course it’s not the kind of automobile for hooning around in. The new challenge is to max out your economy. There are different features to assist you screen your driving style, score your method and gamify the whole experience.
The dash is a confusing, cluttered and inconsistent style from the institution of much more is more. You grow bit trees on the top display, the much more economically you drive, the much more trees you grow.
Flicking the ‘gear lever’ down into Drive a second time switches the automobile into Brake Mode. This boosts braking regen and recuperates much more energy, enabling you to one-pedal drive, only needing to touch the brake pedal when concerning a complete stop.
The web interface offers (slow) access to all this data and rates your driving too. Here’s a summary from the web interface after around 10 days of driving the Leaf.
I believe if everybody had an EV for a week it would provide them a excellent insight into exactly how to drive much more economically.

عادةً ما يتواصل منتقدو أفلام السيارات الكهربائية انبعاثات إنتاج أولية أعلى لهذه المركبات ، لكننا بالكاد في الجيل الثاني من EV الحديث مقارنة بقرن من التقدم في الجليد وعمليات إنتاجها. أوه ، ووضع في اعتبارك مطالب الطاقة المستمرة لتحسين الوقود للحفاظ على الجليد لدينا …
القيادة الذاتية / المستوى 5 الحكم الذاتي
تشمل الفوائد البيئية لـ EVs المحتملين لعدد أقل من السيارات والشاحنات على الطرق في المستقبل أيضًا. بدلاً من ثاني أكبر عملية شراء لك في وضع الخمول ل 90 ٪ من حياتها ، يمكن أن تعمل من أجلك. بالإضافة إلى ذلك ، قد ينتهي بك المطاف مع عضوية لسيارات في المستقبل (CAAS – Automobile كخدمة؟) ، استدعاء سيارة مستقلة من التطبيق عندما تتطلب ذلك.
تحقق من الفيديو أدناه في قسم الواجبات المنزلية في هذا الأسبوع عن العلوم وراء السيارات والشاحنات ذاتية القيادة الذاتي التي ربما تكون على بعد عام واحد فقط (ستكون التقنية هنا بحلول ذلك الوقت ، إن لم يكن التشريع).
مدخرات
الآثار الجانبية لتجربة EV لدينا هي انخفاض التكاليف لنقلنا المنزلي. هذه الورقة التي تبلغ 24 كيلو واط ساعة هي في الأساس نموذج نفد ، بسبب توقفه لصالح التصميم الحالي والأكبر 30 كيلو وات قريبًا. بالإضافة إلى ذلك ، فإن بيان ورقة الجيل الجديد تمامًا من المقرر أن يحل محل نمط الشيخوخة الحالي الذي كان موجودًا بسبب عام 2010.
كل ما يعني أن هناك بعض العروض الممتازة حولها. تساعد منحة السيارات الإضافية البالغة 4500 جنيه إسترليني من الحكومة شركة التأجير ، لذا فإن مدفوعات PCP التي تبلغ 8000 ميل × 8000 ميل لا تقترب حتى من دفع الاستهلاك على السيارة.
الكل في الكل طريقة غير مكلفة حقًا لغمس إصبع قدمنا في عالم EV ، وإذا تمكنا من الحصول على سيارة متنوعة من الجيل الأول والمقيدة مثل هذا ، فسيكون أي شيء في المستقبل أمرًا سهلاً. إليك بعض المدخرات السنوية …
تم توفير 500 جنيه إسترليني على ضريبة الطرق – ضريبة الطرق 0 جنيه إسترليني للورق مقابل 500 جنيه إسترليني لـ The Variety Rover.
1،300 جنيه إسترليني على الوقود – نحن في متوسط 4.0 أميال مقترحة لكل كيلوواط حتى الآن ، والتي تعمل بسعر أكثر من 0.03 جنيه إسترليني لكل ميل مقابل حوالي 0.19 جنيه إسترليني لكل ميل للسيارات الدفعية. يتم حساب وفورات التكاليف هذه على الطاقة الكهربائية مقابل الديزل التي تزيد عن 8000 ميل سنويًا وتتجاهل المحتملين لشحن الطاقة الشمسية في المنزل و (لا يزال مجانيًا ، ولكن ليس لفترة طويلة) في أيرلندا الشمالية.
تم توفير 350 جنيهًا إسترلينيًا على تغطية التأمين – مما لا يثير الدهشة أن الورقة أرخص بكثير لتأمينها من RR.
BIK – إذا كنت محظوظًا بما يكفي للحصول على شركة سيارات (أنا لست كذلك) ، فسيقدم EV أدنى فائدة بالمعدل الرقيقة. لقد تحدثت مع صديق جيد في ذلك اليوم الذي أخبرني أنه قدمه بكفاءة زيادة في الأجور من خلال الانتقال إلى EV.
رائع أو حماقة
نحن على بعد 3 سنوات فقط من عقد التغيير إلى EV وفقًا لـ Bloomberg. الوقت الذي ستكون فيه السيارات الكهربائية بنفس تكلفة التكلفة التي تعمل بالجليد ، سيكون التنوع مرتفعًا بما يكفي لعدم الأمر ، وستظل تكاليف التشغيل مفيدة للغاية. سيكون الوقت الذي يكون فيه شراء سيارة الجليد على EV هو القرار غير العادي ، وليس الطريقة الأخرى حولها.
عندما تبدأ السيارات والشاحنات الكهربائية في أن تصبح القاعدة ، فإن اختيار التصميم سيعزز من توفير القليل إلى حد ما اليوم. من يدري ، يمكن أن أكون جالسًا مرة أخرى ولكن في EV ، أو ربما سألتزم بكوني أقرب إلى الأرض.
إذن ، إنها الأيام الأولى في تجربتنا EV ، ولكنها جيدة جدًا.
ماذا تسمي عكس أزمة منتصف العمر؟ إدراك منتصف العمر؟ يمكن. أنا معك تماما.
