[Video available] Electric vehicles snowy country verification!38 hours of snowy roads in Tesla "Model 3"
[Verification video] [Tesla model 3] Snow road stuck verification on 3 electric vehicles
From January 27 to 29, 2022, we examined a total of 38 hours at the Zao Astoria Hotel Parking lot in Zao Onsen, Yamagata City.It is directly connected to the slopes of Zao Ski Resort, and the altitude is about 940m.The average temperature during verification is minus 5 ° C, the weather is cloudy and sometimes snowy.Due to the heavy snowfall from mid -January to late, there was a lot of snow around the verification location.
Vehicle settings
① Pleasant issue / model 3 long range, 79.5kWh, 2021 model, red / air conditioner 20 ° C, air volume automatic setting, inner air circulation, no seat heater ② Slightly pleasant size / model 3 performance, 75 kWh, 2019 model, blue / air conditioner 18 ° C, air volume automatic setting, internal air circulation,No seat heater ③ Putting / model 3 long range, 75kWh, 2019 model, white / air conditioner 16 ° C, air volume automatic setting, all seat heaters MAX, electric blanket use
Clothes
The upper body is a heat tech + sweater + down jacket.The lower body was on verification with warm pants bought with HEATTECH + workman.The feet are simple waterproof boots on ordinary socks.I was conscious of general clothes in midwinter, not perfect equipment assuming my stiffness.
33 hours even with a comfortable setting of 20 ° C from 80%to 10%to 10%
The 20 ° C settings were 33 hours, 51 hours for 18 ° C., and 40 hours when a sheet heater and an electric blanket were used at 16 ° C.
Since the power consumption was less than expected, the time expires on the way and the dotted part is predictable.
That said, you don't always encounter a rider with a lot of batteries left.Even if the battery level is 40 %, the 20 ° C is set for 14 hours, the 18 ° C is 22 hours, and the 16 ° C is set for about 20 hours for about 20 hours.I found out.
How comfortable is it?
Verification starts at 21:30 on January 27.I spent the night on the patience, but went back and forth between all vehicles for YouTube video shooting.
The air conditioner 20 degree setting is a warm temperature when the outer is worn.The sound of the air conditioner starting from the heat pump is a bit noisy, but if you play a role in improving electricity, you can endure it.
The air conditioner 18 ° C is a little comfortable to set up a warm wind with only a PTC heater, so the operation sound is quieter than a comfortable issue.The driver's passenger seat is a temperature that can be used normally if you wear an outerwear, but the rear seats may be a little cold because the blower is limited and the glass area is large.
The patience of the air conditioner 16 ° C is clearly cold.The air volume that is set to automatically increases, and you will feel the flow of air in your face and hands wherever you turn.Fortunately, you can use a seat heater and an electric blanket, so you can spend it with a long -distance, and there is no doubt that it is a warmer environment compared to minus 5 ° C outside the car.
There are three types of electric blankets: USB type (80cm x 140cm), cigar socket type (150cm x 110cm), and outlet type (190 x 130cm).It is important to note that you will not be able to feel much warmth unless you use each electric blanket together with a futon.
I buried a gasoline car
In order to measure the carbon monoxide concentration, which is a must -see when it is in the snow in the snow in the snow, I buried the gasoline car wheel house with snow.If the dashboard is placed on a carbon monoxide concentration measuring instrument, and the air conditioner is on for the introduction of the outside air, it reaches 322 ppm in 3 minutes.This is a level of headache and nausea when staying for 2 hours.Like gasoline vehicles, model 3, an electric vehicle, was buried in snow and measured it, but the carbon monoxide concentration did not increase because it did not emit exhaust gas.
Whether it's an electric car or a gasoline car, snow removal to get in and out of the vehicle is indispensable, but it is a great advantage that you can spend a long time without worrying about carbon monoxide poisoning.
