hey Björn, we were the ones with the C40 Volvo from Hungary and met you when you were charging. I just wanted to say hi but you were in a rush. It was so good even for that small amount of time just to shake hands with you. We were so lucky to met you and it was so random i was hardly believe it. Keep up the good work and i hope we meet again.

In summer I will go from Austria to Nordkapp in an EV6. So much looking forward to beautiful Norway!

[nakfan]

Breathtakingly beautiful 😲 Looking forward to your new / upcoming channel with routes and scenery from Norway 👍

[CrownRider]

Last summer we visited Trollstigen. It was breathtaking. Nice road trip video, thanks.

[richh]

God I just love the late light there this time of year, Bjorn. The scenery there is beyond beautiful in Norway! Your trips and hands on information are second to no one else sir!

[SOLAOFHADES]

Bjorn Nyland's Road Trips should be "Route Nein Nein Nein" harkening back to the old TV series Route 66.

[leftcoaster]

I'm glad you are staying in Norway. It's a beautiful place like Canada.

[robert]

Nice to see you return to your roots in this video. Great video shots of your country and as always so beautiful it is. Thanks for posting

Prof. Google says that Trollstigen is the wizard's ladder...🤔

[markgeezey]

Strange Bjorn that you have problems. Yes at first using the pre-heating you need to get your head around it. But after a couple of times it becomes easy. Like many other cars. “If you you know you know” Also on pre announcements out now that Hyundai and Kia will look to show charging stations on route. So be Tesla esque albeit not as good. However not everyone wants a Tesla. 🤔I have been using the GT and getting fantastic speeds and omg it goes like a rocket especially mid acceleration. Beautiful video of Norge. 👍👍

Bjørn always eats healthy except Arctic Road trips since he is obliged to eat Gruben pizza. 😊

[proesterchen]

Wow, thanks for showing the printout for the fast-charging procedure! There's not only no way one would chance into having a full-speed charging session, I'd say it's unlikely for many regular drivers to commit this to memory for the few times every now and then you might want this for a longer trip.

[samuelbarford]

Do you think the minimum temperature has to be below 21 when you set the charger as a destination in order to activate the battery heater?

[sandmehlig]

👍 The car is beautiful - and so thirsty even at low speeds. 😧 I wish for a preheat button near a way point that leads to a list of close-by charging stations.

[adrianguggisberg]

It's much easier and quicker to use "Live Chargers" for preheating. I have that on my ⭐️-button. Works every time, with one press of a button and without Ninja car scanner EV wizardry. However, unless it's really winter, preheating isn't worth the hassle and loss of range. Even if the battery is cold-ish, EGMP will still charge 10-80% faster than almost all other cars.

When you mention Trollstigen, I immediately think: I would be interresting to se som test comparing towing trailer with and without inertia brakes.

750 kg trailer dith and without inertia brakes, compare regen with both.

[EdwinAbalain]

KIA might consider gathering ALL essential info from the car to make ONE screen for the user to see, in one glance, if all conditions for fast charging pre-heating are met:
Condition 1: check
Condition 2: check, etc!

Hi Björn
I think you have to "meny" and "navigetioen"..seek the name "Dombås" and go too the map and push "target mark" att inonty and "set destionetion".. this is the way Ido and "pre hesting" is going on every time for

[TerjeL]

Finally 🥳🥳
Road trip video for the win 🥳🥳
