Want A Well SUPPORTED Used EV? BUY THESE CARS! Transport Evolved 2023-10-06 | If you're able to buy a brand new electric car, there are plenty of great vehicles for you to pick from. But if you're looking to buy a used electric car, it can be a bit of a minefield determining which vehicles will suit your needs and remain well-supported long after they're made. So today, we're making a video recommending which EVs are currently well-supported by their original manufacturers, which ones are well-supported by third-party garages, and which ones are relatively easy for competent mechanics to work on themselves.------00:00 - Introduction01:29 - What we're covering in this video02:57 - Financial Reminder04:16 - Extended Warranty Warning!05:32 - Halloween T-Shirt Ad!06:02 - Cars that are well-supported09:17 - Official repairs can be costly11:32 - Cars that are well-supported in the third-party world12:58 - Nissan LEAF caveats13:47 - Many of our viewers rock older LEAFs with newer packs14:11 - Third party Tesla help14:56 - Cars to work on yourself15:22 - Follow safety procedures!17:38 - Thanks, and Goodbye!Watch our Vectrix VX-1 video: youtu.be/DFpegCtMXsI Buy one of our T-Shirts: redbubble.com/shop/ap/153008127 -----Script: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield and Kate Walton-ElliotPresenters: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield and Kate Walton-ElliottEditor, Colorist: Michael HortonArt and Animation: Erin CarlieProducer: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield© Transport Evolved LLC, 2023-----Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UC675NhQ4EU5TzwCMwYp5XCw/joinThis video was made possible thanks to the kind donations of our supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi.

This Predates The Tesla Model S - And We Just Purchased It! Transport Evolved 2023-10-04 | Last year, when Nikki and her partner decided to replace one of their two Chevrolet Bolt EVs with a Ford F150 Lightning Lariat, they - and we here at the channel - came under a lot of criticism for buying a massive, inefficient electric vehicle - in fact one of the largest and most inefficient vehicles on sale at the time. Whenever possible, Nikki takes her partner's Bolt EV to run errands around town, saving the F150 Lightning (known as Adira Tal) for the things they actually purchased the truck for: hauling camera gear and crew for this channel; traveling long distance with the same; hauling trailers; and carrying wood, feed, and garden supplies for their smallholding in the foothills of the coast range. But while Adira Tal is very good at those things, Nikki wanted something more efficient to carry out the odd job in and around her local area. And so, she went shopping.Meet Transport Evolved's latest project vehicle!

Is The Ford F150 Raptor Really More Economical Than a Ford F150 Lightning? Transport Evolved 2023-10-02 | Last year, not long after we purchased our Ford F150 Lightning Lariat Extended range, Tyler Hoover, of @HooviesGarage made a video complaining about his own experiences with his Ford F150 Lightning Standard range.

This Ambulance Car Is ALL Electric - And The Benefits To The Community Are MASSIVE Transport Evolved 2023-09-20 | In order to minimize the effects of anthropogenic climate change and to build a greener, more sustainable future, we need more than just personal forms of transportation to become electric: we need electrification of all vehicle fleets. In Vancouver, British Columbia, BC Emergency Health Services has taken that task on head on, developing alternatives to gasoline-powered medical response vehicles like fire trucks and ambulances, especially when a significant number of calls to 911 don't require patient transportation. And at Fully Charged Live in Vancouver two weeks ago, Kate was able to talk to José Font, Senior Business Analyst, for Logistics and Transportation Operations at BC Emergency Health Services about both the agency's all-electric ambulance car and their fleet of cycle paramedics. -----Links: BC Emergency Health Services: http://www.bcehs.ca----Why we were masking at Fully Charged Live: thenib.com/temperature-check -----Presenter: Kate Walton-ElliottGuest: José Font, Senior Business Analyst, Logistics & Transportation Operations, BC Emergency Health Services.Audio: Nikki Gordon-BloomfieldEditor, Colorist: Michael HortonArt and Animation: Erin CarlieProducer: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield© Transport Evolved LLC, 2023-----Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UC675NhQ4EU5TzwCMwYp5XCw/joinThis video was made possible thanks to the kind donations of our supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi.

From Here To Tesla - How UBCs Formula Electric Team Builds The EV Experts Of The Future! Transport Evolved 2023-09-18 | While those of us who were born in the last century each have a huge part to play in helping reverse the effects of anthropogenic climate change ( a problem that we helped cause in the first place) the hardest job falls with those who follow us. And to prepare them for that task, we should all be working hard to ensure the next generation of engineers, innovators, and environmentalists have the best possible platform to base their careers on. In the EV world, that means ensuring students have the very best chances to learn - and at UBC in Vancouver, part of that learning journey includes taking part in UBC's Formula Electric team. We were honored enough to speak to some of the UBC Formula Electric's current team while we were at Fully Charged Live in Canada last weekend - and we were blown away by their skill, knowledge, and hopes for the future. We hope you will be too. -----Links: UBC Formula Electric Team: ubcformulaelectric.com UBC Formula Electric Instagram : instagram.com/ubcformulaelectric ----Why we were masking at Fully Charged Live: thenib.com/temperature-check -----Presenter: Kate Walton-ElliottGuest: Cait Ries, Joe Thurston.Audio: Nikki Gordon-BloomfieldEditor, Colorist: Michael HortonArt and Animation: Erin CarlieProducer: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield© Transport Evolved LLC, 2023-----Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UC675NhQ4EU5TzwCMwYp5XCw/joinThis video was made possible thanks to the kind donations of our supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi.

Doctors Vs Climate Change - Why These Medical Heroes Dont Wear CAPEs But Are In One! Transport Evolved 2023-09-15 | The effects of anthropogenic climate change on society isn't just about natural disasters - but rather the health effects that those natural disasters bring, not to mention the health issues caused by worsening air quality and rising temperatures. So while we were at Fully Charged LIve in Vancouver, BC, Canada last week, we were sure to chat with Dr. Deborah Curry CCFP, a member of CAPE - or Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment. In addition to telling us a little more about CAPE, Dr. Curry helped explain why electric cars and cleaner, greener forms of transportation and energy aren't just good for our wallets and air quality - but for us humans too. -----Links: CAPE - cape.ca ----Why we were masking at Fully Charged Live: thenib.com/temperature-check -----Presenter: Kate Walton-ElliottGuest: Dr. Deborah Curry, CCFPAudio: Nikki Gordon-BloomfieldEditor, Colorist: Michael HortonArt and Animation: Erin CarlieProducer: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield© Transport Evolved LLC, 2023-----Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UC675NhQ4EU5TzwCMwYp5XCw/joinThis video was made possible thanks to the kind donations of our supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi.

Heres WHY Cargo Bikes BEAT Electric Trucks. Transport Evolved 2023-09-13 | In order to decarbonize our society, we need to not only decarbonize how we travel - but how goods travel too - and in a world where at-home deliveries have soared (along with their associated emissions) there's no time to lose in decarbonizing last-mile deliveries. Most people think of electric delivery vehicles like the custom delivery vehicle Rivian makes for Amazon, or any other number of all-electric mid-size panel vans around the world. But as we discovered at Fully Charged Live in Vancouver, BC, Canada this weekend, there's an even better way to decarbonize last mile delivery: Cargo Bikes. We chat to industry expert Sam Starr of Our Greenway Conservancy and Penguin Pickup to discover the benefits of Cargo bicycles and human-electric hybrids. -----Links: Sam Starr - linkedin.com/in/samstarrOur Greenway Conservancy - ourgreenway.caNorth American Cargo Bike Conference - cargobikefest.caCycle Logistics.Eu - http://cyclelogistics.euInternational Cargo Bike Festival - cargobikefestival.comPenguin Pickup - penguinpickup.com----Why we were masking at Fully Charged Live: thenib.com/temperature-check -----Presenter: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield.

Bringing Electric Car Charging To Everyone: How Charging Networks Decide Where You Can Charge. Transport Evolved 2023-09-10 | We're seeing a massive expansion in EV charging networks across the US, but for many people there still aren't charging options where they live, where they work, or on the routes they take. This vital part of the transition to green, sustainable transport solutions is a missing puzzle piece. So we sat down with charging providers and network planning companies to find out how the existing networks were planned......and how we can move forward with getting charging in place for everyone. In this special project from the TE team, we go deep in depth with multiple companies to understand the origins of how charging networks were originally planned, how EV ownership and social factors have played into that planning, how that process has shifted through time, and what impacts recent US legislation will have on future network expansion.-----00:00 - Introduction01:31 - A (very) brief history of EV charging networks02:58 - If most people charge at home, why does public charging matter?04:03 - How are charging locations chosen?10:38 - What makes a good charging location?16:55 - How does EV ownership factor in to charging location planning?23:38 - What impacts have network planning had on underserved communities?23:15 - What's changing to get charging into historically underserved communities?39:29 - How are community stakeholders involved in charger placement?46:45 - What can we do going forward?47:30 - Thanks, and Goodbye!-----Script: Kate Walton-Elliott, Nikki Gordon-BloomfieldPresenter: Kate Walton-ElliottArt and Animation: Erin CarlieEditor: Michael Horton, Kate Walton-ElliottSound: Nikki Gordon-BloomfieldProducer: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield© Transport Evolved LLC, 2023Thank you to EVgo, Freewire, Stable Auto, and Volta for agreeing to participate in this video.

We Drive The EQE 500 4Matic. Is This Luxury, Redefined - Or Just A Good Drive? Transport Evolved 2023-08-18 | Last year, we got behind the wheel of the Mercedes-Benz EQS, (youtu.be/c6o_T9uVtHI) a car that felt like it was best suited to being driven in, not to be the driver of. Now, it's time to put that car's younger, smaller sibling to the test. And, in the spirit of Marks and Spencer (Yes, we know it's a European brand but it's worth the allusion), we ask if the EQE 500 4Matic is just another EV, or if it's a Luxury EV from Mercedes-Benz worth your time.

Aptera, Startup, And The Minefield of PR Woes Transport Evolved 2023-08-16 | About three and a bit weeks ago, Aptera was featured on NBC nightly news. The report showed the vehicle struggling on a hill, and has caused some concern in the industry about what that means for Aptera.After chatting with the company about the incident, we remain hopeful the overheating motor was a one-off caused by a gamble that went wrong, and perhaps not enough engineering preparation time before the shoot.But the news story and the subsequent coverage tells us a whole lot more about the state of being a startup in the EV world today - and just how difficult it can be to walk the line between too little press access… and the wrong types of PR. —-00:00 - Introduction01:49 - What We're Covering TOday03:09 - Basics of EV startups and Media05:14 - PR, PR, PR06:39 - Red Flags07:45 - The risks of TOO MUCH access08:10 - The questions WE ask...09:06 - The challenges of poor PR10:34 - Bad experiences we've had12:44 - How companies and their PR firms react to bad things happening... tells you a lot14:07 - Owning the problem is best16:44 - Things Tally Up17:39 - Our Verdict18:32 - Some ovbservations about the NBC converage——-Script: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield, Kate Walton-ElliottPresenter: Nikki Gordon-BloomfieldEditor, Colorist: Michael HortonArt and Animation: Erin CarlieProducer: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield© Transport Evolved LLC, 2023-----Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UC675NhQ4EU5TzwCMwYp5XCw/joinThis video was made possible thanks to the kind donations of our supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi.

Tesla Vs EPA Range? Its The Tip Of The Iceberg Transport Evolved 2023-08-11 | In the last week, a story has hit the headlines detailing how tough it can be to get the Tesla EVs to meet their EPA range - and how Tesla has (allegedly) used special service agents to dissuade customers from making service appointments concerning sub-optimal range. It would be all-too-easy to point fingers and blame Tesla, or the EPA for poor test data, but honestly, this story is just the tip of the iceberg. ... And it's more complex than most people think. Read about the EPA's test guidance here: epa.gov/greenvehicles/testing-national-vehicle-and-fuel-emissions-laboratory#:~:text=For%20EV%20range%20testing%3A&text=The%20distance%20driven%20is%20recorded,the%20city%20or%20highway%20cycle.---00:00 - Introduction01:48 - Tesla Falls Short?03:33 - YMMV06:04 - Standards: not very standartized.07:20 - Test cycle basics09:00 - The EPA doesn't test cars - automakers do!10:33 - Underestimates and overestimates12:20 - This problem isn't new15:17 - Tesla's ace in the hole16:40 - Meeting ratings should require hypermiling skills!17:25 - Solving the problem20:32 - Thanks, and Goodbye!----See the team at Fully Charged Live Vancouver in Canada this September (and get 25% off tickets) by heading to https://ca.fullycharged.live/ and using "TE25" at checkout!Watch @DalasEVRepair and support him at patreon.com/dala------Script: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield, Kate Walton-ElliottPresenter: Nikki Gordon-BloomfieldEditor, Colorist: Michael HortonArt and Animation: Erin CarlieProducer: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield© Transport Evolved LLC, 2023-----Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UC675NhQ4EU5TzwCMwYp5XCw/joinThis video was made possible thanks to the kind donations of our supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi.

EV Adoption Is Being Threatened By Bait & Switch. It Has To STOP Transport Evolved 2023-08-02 | Earlier this week, Chevrolet confirmed that deliveries of its Blazer EV were soon to begin, with the first examples going to customers being the 2024 Blazer EV AWD RS. But at the same time, it quietly confirmed that the 1LT variant, a version that it had said would retell from $45,000 before incentives, was dead on arrival, making the 2LT the most affordable Blazer EV. The problem? It's far more expensive than the 1LT was meant to be, and it's indicative of a wider problem in the EV world. Let's discuss it...----00:00 - Introduction01:14 - The Problem With Promises02:24 - Blazer EV bait and switch04:25 - GM's done this before (as have others)05:02 - This is bad for EVs05:39 - It puts people off buying an Ev NOW06:30 - It creates bad reputations08:09 - Profits Vs.

These Seven Automakers Are Building A Network With Tesla Compatibility Transport Evolved 2023-07-28 | The transition away from CCS and toward NACS (North American Charging Standard) in the U.S. and Canada has caused quite a lot of speculation over the future of EV charging. And on this channel, while we've pointed out that the transition to NACS won't solve every issue (youtu.be/N17vaZrRQ98) we've also outlined some of the things that are required for such a transition to be smooth (youtu.be/DbC9oTppNhw)At the start of this week, we were fairly convinced the news over charging had started to slow down. That was until a new joint partnership between seven large automakers promised to establish a new nationwide charging network that's larger than Tesla and Electrify America combined (and then some). More confusion or a good piece of news? Let's get stuck in. -----00:00 - Introduction02:16 - Appology from Wednesday's Video02:59 - A new charging network announced03:43 - CHAdeMO is missing :(04:41 - Sparse Details05:21 - Size promises06:40 - How canopies help08:23 - Locations09:15 - Why do we know so little?09:49 - No Volkswagen?10:38 - Why CCS + NACS (not just NACS)?11:59 - Why is it good for Tesla (and everyone else?)12:59 - The need for intentionality14:12 - Conclusion14:27 - Thanks, and Goodbye!====See the team at Fully Charged Live Vancouver in Canada this September (and get 25% off tickets) by heading to https://ca.fullycharged.live/ and using "TE25" at checkout!------Script: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield, Kate Walton-ElliottPresenter: Nikki Gordon-BloomfieldEditor, Colorist: Michael HortonArt and Animation: Erin CarlieProducer: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield© Transport Evolved LLC, 2023-----Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UC675NhQ4EU5TzwCMwYp5XCw/joinThis video was made possible thanks to the kind donations of our supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi.

The Chevrolet Bolt EV Is Coming Back. Heres What We Know (and Hope Itll Have) Transport Evolved 2023-07-26 | Earlier this year, General Motors confirmed that the Bolt EV would end production at the end of this year - and we, among many others lamented the loss of an affordable electric vehicle that wasn't a massive SUV or pickup truck. But earlier this week, GM CEO Mary Barra confirmed that the Bolt EV will return as a Ultium-based model. Here's what we know (not a lot), as well as some of our speculation on what the next-generation Bolt EV should be like. ----00:00 - Introduction01:22 - Editorial Notes02:13 - History of original Bolt EV, and Bolt EUV04:32 - Not due any time soon?06:33 - Lower batteries = good for next-genereration Bolt06:57 - Price preditions and cautions08:05 - Predictions for battery pack specs11:55 - Drivetrain speculations13:21 - Size and form factor predictions15:57 - Technology predictions19:38 - Hopes for the seat20:18 - Conclusion21:22 - Thanks, and Goodbye!---See our previous video on the Bolt EV being cancelled. - youtu.be/XL7ADSCsnWUSee our video on Comma AI and OPGM in a Chevrolet Bolt EV: - youtu.be/U5pBTjR0rJ4----------See the team at Fully Charged Live Vancouver in Canada this September (and get 25% off tickets) by heading to https://ca.fullycharged.live/ and using "TE25" at checkout!------Script: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield, Kate Walton-ElliottPresenter: Nikki Gordon-BloomfieldEditor, Colorist: Michael HortonArt and Animation: Erin CarlieProducer: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield© Transport Evolved LLC, 2023-----Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UC675NhQ4EU5TzwCMwYp5XCw/joinThis video was made possible thanks to the kind donations of our supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi.
