Out of Spec Podcast

Check Out Our Out of Spec Data: https://outofspecstudios.com/chargingTesla has officially uncorked all V4 Supercharger posts in North America, allowing the Cybertruck to charge at up to 325kW! This is made possible by increasing amperage to 900A, thanks to the improved cooling of V4 dispensers. However, these chargers are still using V3 cabinets, meaning they remain limited to 500V output.What does this mean for Cybertruck owners? Will other Tesla vehicles see faster charging speeds? And when will true V4 cabinets with 1000V and 500kW arrive? Join me as I break down everything you need to know about Tesla’s latest Supercharger upgrade!Shoutout to our sponsors for more information find their links below:- Fort Collins Kia: Visit focokia.com for full details.

The Volvo EX30 is finally making its way to the U.S., built in Belgium to avoid Chinese EV tariffs imposed by the US. Starting at $44,900, it's a big jump from the original $35,000 first advertised, but that is because this base version we get in the US today is a dual-motor AWD, so it isn't the cheapest Volvo expects to ship, yet. Yes we will still get the RWD version starting at a lower price. This AWD version offers 243 miles of EPA-estimated range and a quick 0-60 time of 3.4 seconds. In this video, I’ll break down the U.S.-specific trims, pricing, and how this version compares to the ones sold in Europe and China. I’ll also go over the key features and what options you’ll get here in the U.S. market. What do you think about the EX30’s pricing and features?Shoutout to our sponsors for more information find their links below:- Fort Collins Kia: Visit focokia.com for full details.

In this episode of the Out of Spec Podcast, I sit down with my fellow EQS team members (Jordan and Sebastian) to reflect on our I-90 Surge experience, driving Mercedes-Benz’s flagship electric vehicle across the country. Over 46 hours and 51 minutes, we pushed the EQS to its limits, relying on its advanced navigation and charging prediction systems while tackling the highs and lows of EV road tripping.We discuss our strategy, the EQS's consistent charging curve, comparisons to other vehicles in the race, and how it handled the diverse challenges of a cross-country journey. From efficiency debates to navigation quirks, and even some lane violation drama, we dive into what makes the EQS a compelling (and sometimes frustrating) choice for long-distance travel.Jordan: https://prndlcars.com (website)https://youtube.com/@prndlcars (Youtube)Sebastian: https://x.com/its_seebas (X)Isaiah (Me): bio.link/rivianupdates (website)isaiahlouis.com (LinkedIn)Shoutout to our sponsors for more information find their links below:- Fort Collins Kia: Visit focokia.com for full details.
