WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.000 Good morning, pilots. Today Matt, Alex, and I are going to the fully charged EV and home show, 00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:09.000 which is going to be a lot of fun to the Vancouver Convention Center. 00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:14.000 Apparently they make electric cars now, but I thought cars needed gas, so I don't know. 00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:17.000 We'll figure out what's going on, but we've got to go. Well, we're going to be late. 00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:22.000 Alright, we've made it here to fully charged in the beautiful VCC. 00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:25.000 Let's see if we can find anything interesting to look at. 00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:28.000 There's quite a lot. A lot of cars. 00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:36.000 I mean, does this even count as an electric car? Like, I guess so. Is this like the first one? I don't know anything about Detroit. 00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:41.000 I guess it's what cars look like there. But yeah, otherwise it's a pretty big venue. 00:00:41.000 --> 00:00:44.000 Not as big as LTX though, so I guess we got them beat on that. 00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:48.000 They're even R1S. I got to say, I think I prefer this look to the R1T. 00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:53.000 We haven't gotten a chance to drive it yet, but maybe, maybe we can convince them to give us this one. 00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:59.000 Alright, you had to pick one. What do you choose? The little smart car looking guy here? 00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:02.000 The modded Tesla Model 3. Obviously, you need the spoiler, 00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:06.000 because even though this is a very heavy car, you need more downforce. 00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:09.000 And, I mean, I don't know if those little cards stay on there when you're driving, 00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:14.000 but that'd be kind of cool. Or this guy. I mean, look at this. 00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:18.000 It's like somebody pinched a car when it was still cooking. 00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:22.000 And now it's a little bit squished, but that's alright. We don't discriminate. 00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:27.000 Look at the tires. Yeah, those are incredibly not legal on the street, 00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:30.000 but I absolutely love it. I don't mean to make sense. Look at this. 00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:34.000 Clearly for the track. We got the giant spoiler. 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:38.000 We got the mini spoiler underneath just so you know they ballin'. 00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:41.000 And they're driving on the street. This sticker's for driving on the highway in Vancouver. 00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:46.000 This car's going places. This is going onto a trailer, for sure. 00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:50.000 There's no way. Crazy. 00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:54.000 Comment down below if I should do this to my Tesla. I'm thinking yes. 00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:58.000 Oh my God. We're at the Polestar booth. We did check out the Polestar, 00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:02.000 and you know, it's a pretty decent car, but this color is insane. 00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:07.000 But let's go take a look at that Polestar 3. Sheesh. Now this is a Polestar I can get behind. 00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:11.000 You can see the headlights are strobing. It does not look like that in person, 00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:16.000 but man, does that look good. That is not. 00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:20.000 The only thing that can make it better is if there was no rear view window, 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:23.000 as I know they're trying to get rid of, but we'll see. One thing we noticed with the Polestar 00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:26.000 is that it is pretty high up for when you're lifting your groceries, 00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:31.000 but luckily you can actually lower it with the air suspension so it's easier to lift your heavy bags in. 00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:35.000 I know Matt's buying all that. That's soilin'. 00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:39.000 Lifting it up could be challenging, but luckily, yeah, the air suspension's great. 00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:42.000 Alright, the inside of the back looks nice, but this is the crazy thing. 00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:46.000 It's giant. There's a window up and down button. That's way too big. 00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:50.000 Alright Alex, what do you think? So far so good. We've got some really nice leather there. 00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:53.000 I've been told that there's two cup holders. 00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:58.000 Oh, sorry. Wow. We're getting sniped. 00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:02.000 The front of this is also kind of unique. It's weird looking from this angle. 00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:06.000 Speed holds. You've got a front spoiler now. 00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:10.000 Sure. I don't know what's on the go. I need to figure that out. 00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:14.000 Otherwise, the front looks pretty cool. I mean, it's got some attitude. 00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:18.000 What do you say about cars? Do you say cars have attitude? I don't know how it works. 00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:23.000 Lots of cars have attitude, yes. And this is one of the cars with attitude of all time. 00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:28.000 Maybe. Maybe. I don't quite understand. It's like both 00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:32.000 kind of like aggressive, shark-like and very soft and luxurious. 00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:36.000 I don't feel a blend of how short I am looking up at you. 00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:40.000 Alright Matt, what do you think? Is this looking good? 00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:44.000 I think this one looks pretty good. The three is definitely better than the four. 00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:48.000 Only because it has a rear windscreen. Ah, not get out of your trash. 00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:52.000 Four is way better. No rear windrow. That's all I want. 00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:56.000 Alright Alex, you had one major complaint with the Polestar 2. Want to see if they've updated it in the 2024? 00:03:56.000 --> 00:04:00.000 We have the refresh here. Let's see what's on the go. They didn't. 00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:04.000 No. This is still awful. 00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:08.000 It's scratchy and not comfortable. 00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:12.000 We'll get all the way in. 00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:20.000 Classic giant Alex. Yep. To get to your second cup holder 00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:24.000 you still have to do the all the way around. 00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:28.000 Big sad. If only there was a car that this was based on that has 00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:32.000 this completely functional. Just steal the XC40 guys. 00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:36.000 Alright, get her out of here. Drive it out. 00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:40.000 Don't worry, if you can't afford a Polestar 2, you can maybe afford 00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:44.000 the cake maker. Fire. 00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:48.000 Now the one segment we haven't really covered in EVs is electric motorcycles 00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:52.000 because Linus doesn't really like them. He's the only one that rides motorcycles 00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:56.000 of all of our hosts. He says that you need the roar of the engine. 00:04:56.000 --> 00:05:00.000 But I think they look pretty cool. Let us know if you think we should try to get Linus to drive 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.000 one of these because sheesh. Alright, we're here with the 00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:08.000 GV70. We just filmed a video with this. Is this the car 00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:12.000 Alex's butt sat in? Maybe. I actually have no recollection. 00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:16.000 Yeah, it's hard to remember. I think it's time for Linus to finally get a new car that suits him a bit 00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:20.000 better and this Renault could be it. I know Alex won't fit because it's up to his nipples 00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:24.000 but look at this. Perfect size. Wow. 00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:28.000 That seat looks like something. It'll fit Linus 00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:32.000 of on in the back seat or the LCD star backpack. I mean, great options. 00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:36.000 Yeah, all that you need. Okay, maybe these seats do not look comfortable at all. 00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:40.000 It even has like the bump of a go-kart. No, that's what I'm saying. 00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:44.000 It actually looks like it's at an amusement park. 00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:48.000 Nice. Awesome. Alright, we got the McLaren's 00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:52.000 we got the Taycan though Linus does this wrap better 00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:56.000 and the Pink Bentley. What do you choose it? You get one. 00:05:56.000 --> 00:06:00.000 I think Pink Bentley. Amen, right? The Pink Bentley. It's so 00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:04.000 sick. It matches Matt's shirt. 00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:08.000 I'd want the McLaren but I've heard that they're really good at not working. 00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:12.000 Same with actually I hear the same thing with the Taycan. Yeah, Linus 00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:16.000 has been in the shop a lot. Okay, I hit the thing. 00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:20.000 Oh, there we go. Pretty sick. That's pretty sick. 00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:24.000 Needs a helmet. Wow. Yeah. 00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:28.000 How many cupholders? Oh, just the one. No, it has two cupholders. 00:06:28.000 --> 00:06:32.000 Back in the full star too. There's one there, one up here. Wow. 00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:36.000 We've got a little iPad. Tiny little screen. 00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:40.000 This is really comfy feeling. That's also pretty good. 00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:44.000 I drive it. Dang, that's crazy. I like how it's just carpet here. 00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:48.000 Man, I gotta say, I want LEDs in my rims. 00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:52.000 Now this is gamer. They look a lot like those AliExpress 00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:56.000 knock-offs, hubcap things that you got. You really get some real rotiforms. 00:06:56.000 --> 00:07:00.000 My Aero covers are not knock-offs, but they might 00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:04.000 be from AliExpress. I cannot confirm or deny, but hey, 00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:08.000 this adds like five kilometers an hour to your car because of that stuff. 00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:12.000 Only five kilometers per hour, please. Alright, we got this conversion 00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:16.000 and I gotta say, it looks pretty sick. I'm gonna be out here 00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:20.000 hoping somebody ruins my Tesla so I can write it off and do a conversion to a car like this 00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:24.000 because, god dang, does that look good? 00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:28.000 Does that look good? I was just looking, there's actually a lot less battery in this 00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:32.000 than I was expecting. They kind of just removed the fuel tank and put some battery there. 00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:36.000 I've been, I really want to electrify something like this because 00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:40.000 you can just lift up the whole bed about this far, stick a Tesla battery in there, and no one's 00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:44.000 the wiser. Boom. Yeah. And then you can just, this is too big of a box anyway. 00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:48.000 It's just cut off a big chunk of it, put in more batteries. 00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:52.000 Do you see the screen in there? Do gaming? It'll be perfect. 00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:56.000 We were worried upstairs was all there was, but little did we know. 00:07:56.000 --> 00:08:00.000 There's a whole friggin' rest of the convention. We gotta check out. 00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:04.000 So let's find out if there's more to see other than Polestar and Rivian. 00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:08.000 Edison Motors, I like their brand identity 00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:12.000 which is stealing Tesla's idea just like the real 00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:16.000 Edison did. But I have to say, this doesn't look anything like a Tesla 00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:20.000 that you think of today. That's for sure. I don't know the history. 00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.000 Matt does, but I believe he said it was that 00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:28.000 the idea for a Tesla Semi and Longing is a good idea. So 00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:32.000 this guy made his own, and he's a TikToker too, which is crazy. 00:08:32.000 --> 00:08:36.000 Oh my god, 00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:40.000 the buzz. I want it so bad. My childhood car was 00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:44.000 a VW van, and this looks amazing. 00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:48.000 Love the color. I feel like you just mandatory have to get this 00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:52.000 mustard yellow. I don't know what kind of yellow you would call this, but 00:08:56.000 --> 00:09:00.000 They are Noctua? Yeah, those are actual Noctua fans. 00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:04.000 I don't know what they're doing. I guess some sort of battery cooling. 00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:08.000 Alright, we're done here at the EV fully charged show 00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:12.000 or fully charged EV show, whatever the order is. Let's talk about best of shows. Matt, what was your 00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:16.000 best of show? I got to say, there is the ID buzz over there. It is 00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:20.000 pretty sweet, but for sitting in, I got to go with the 00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:24.000 i5. That thing looks so nice. It felt really good. 00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:28.000 It will be super fun to drive because BMW 00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:32.000 is actually doing decent. Decent. Alex, what's your best show? 00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:36.000 Edison Motors. Absolutely love it. That thing is so cool, and I really 00:09:36.000 --> 00:09:40.000 want to drive it up a logging road. Let us know if we should collab with them. 00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:44.000 Maybe we'll make it happen. My best of show has to be 00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:48.000 the Polestar 2 just in that color. I don't want the car, but I want that Sage color 00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:52.000 with the black strip. It's all about color to me, and that is 00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:56.000 the one for car itself. The Rivian, I guess. 00:09:56.000 --> 00:10:00.000 I want the green of the Polestar, but on my Tesla. That would be the 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.000 dream world. Thank you so much for coming along, pilots. Let us 00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:08.000 know what your favorite car was or what your favorite thing was. Maybe it was 00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:12.000 the VIN Fast. It's probably 00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:14.000 not the VIN Fast. Don't get a VIN Fast.
