Based on that the Freemont car with 2170 is in reality lighter than the Texas 4680… why? Because Freemont Y has 82kw battery and the Texas Y is 65-68. Is you compare apples to apples and measure a Freemont Y 2170 but with a 65kw battery pack will save a lot of weight and could be beyond the 20 pounds difference.

My findings taking both vehicles to the scales showed that the Austin build was only 20 pounds lighter. A head scratcher for sure!

You have to look for battery chemistry aswell. LFP battery is less energy dense. So 60KW LFP battery weights more.

Hey, nice comparison. But you forgot the most important part. Comparing the handling of the cars in sharp curves. The structural pack should feel much more dynamic when driving sporty. Can you please do such a comparison?

I received a new Fremont built model Y LR in June. I found no build quality issues. The paint (gray/midnight silver) was fine. I am very happy with the car. There is no current car on the market in that price range that I would rather have. It's not perfect. Things I would change/improve: The suspension needs help with rough roads, particularly at low to medium speeds. A swivel touchscreen mount should be standard. The smaller fonts should be enlarged a bit, and the items that are pale/washed-out are difficult to quickly see at times. After a month I'm noticing an occasional subtle rattle which seems to be associated with the rear view mirror mount/housing. I really enjoy driving the car. I have a NEMA 14-50 outlet installed in my garage for charging. Nice video. Thanks.

I have found the minor aesthetic updates when compared with the modestly lower price and allegedly quieter, better riding cabin to be a compelling pick over the LR model even in the face of all the “range is king” stuff out there. I live in the state with the best charging infrastructure in the country and I have a bolt euv with less range than the standard already. I should be fine.

6:25, great for a quick test, but a better one is a snapshot of an averaged spectrum analyser app. That may you can compare the frequencies too as certain ones are less annoying. Often you can have a higher SPL that sounds less annoying than a much lower one, depending on the frequencies.
