      Well my dear friend... I was frightened to film the damage because of the consequences it might have had for the upcoming three weeks of other journalists at this press drive. At the time I was shocked and didn't even notice the parking sensors didn't sound. It was first after reviewing the footage later that day and remembering that these where pre-productions prototypes that had many bugs i realised that I wasn't at fault. We can talk about it more in the next podcast episode 🙂

    Doesn't the P4 not have ultra-sonic sensors to beep at you when you get to close to a immobile object like a pole for example? Not sure I'd call it a crash though more a bump. But as for the range test, 444km is what the Kona EV Premium on 19" gets for WLTP range and you got it real world on a P4 doing 120km well extrapolated it, will be interesting to see what you do get real world once you can test it properly.

    • @MasterChief37
      @MasterChief37 Před měsícem

      I think 444 is pretty poor. I’ve driven 900km in my IX40 this week, mostly on 100-110-120km/h roads in an Norway and Sweden, it’s averaging 18.4kWh/100km, which translates to 400km a charge from a 76kwh battery.

      So you can charge 10 mins faster in the I5, but I can drive 50 mins farther than you on a charge? Who you think wins?

    Fake. He didn’t hit anything. The P4 (if it’s like the P2) has a safety feature that will slam the brakes when backing up and it sense you are going too fast, and MIGHT hits something. I’ve had that happen to me 3 times. Saved my butt twice.

    Three things about your claim that you hit the pole: (1) You weren’t even looking in the rear view mirror. Look at where you are looking (in the video) as you backed up .; (2) The P2 has a safety system that automatically slams on the brakes when the car detects something, and you weren’t slowing down. First time it happened to me, and other P2 owners, yes, it feels like you hit something..it’s very abrupt, but it is doing it’s job by bringing you to an abrupt stop before you actually hit anything. That feature, in the P2 can be turned off. ; and (3) if you were close enough to hit something, the sensors would have been screaming at you. I heard nothing.

    • @KrisRifa
      @KrisRifa  Před 17 dny +1

      First off, I did the pole. There was big dent on the rear tailgate. Yes I was looking in the rear view screen and the screen. But because of the pole blended into to the background I was not able to see the pole due to the limited resolution of the camera and scree. This was a pre-production prototype with unfinished SW, so neither the auto brake or the parking sensors were working at the time. I discussed all of this with the team when I handed over the car, and they assured me not to worry because of the aforementioned.
