Bjørn Nyland

The brand new 2021 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus was recently range tested by Bjørn Nyland in Norway. The WLTP rating for this model is up to 448 km (278 miles), but is it really able to go so far? No, according to the rest results, however - the test conditions were not the best, as temperatures were at just 10°C and it was windy.

Here is an interesting battery degradation test of a two-year-old 2019 Tesla Model 3 Long Range, conducted by Bjørn Nyland. The car has covered some 88,000 km (55,000 miles), but the key thing is that it was charged mostly using the AC on-board charger:. DC charging total: 7,409 kWh (37%)

Expect about 350 km (218 miles) at 90 km/h (56 mph) during the winter. Ford Mustang Mach-E, in its top-of-the-line Long Range, All-Wheel Drive version, was recently range tested by Bjorn Nyland in winter conditions. The range results on the 19" wheels with Continental VikingContact 7 winter tires, at a...

The energy consumption at low temperatures and decent speeds is significant. Mercedes-Benz EQV 300, probably the most luxurious series-produced all-electric van ever, was recently tested by Bjorn Nyland in cold weather. The 100 kWh battery (90 kWh usable) in theory should allow it o cover 356 km (221 miles) under...

The usable battery capacity seems about 8% lower now. Bjørn Nyland recently once again tested the battery capacity of its Tesla Model 3 Performance, which previously lost 6% within 14 months and about 60,000 km (37,300 miles). As it turns out, after close to two years (22 months) and 80,000...
