BMW C Evolution - Motor Sound - First GoPro Video Test in Paris

BMW C Evolution - Motor Sound - First GoPro Video Test in Paris



Boulogne to Marais, Paris, passing through Saint Germain des Prés


Low Camera Position on the Belt Cover at the Electric Motor Level to pick up as much sound as possible (a bit like Matthias did with his Energica Ego test ride in Germany, Energica Deutschland MMS Concept)

Parked in Marais next to this e-Solex which has been here for years now ... (not used any more I guess)


Busy streets as usual, and fully reserved to pedestrians today


Two coffees please



Returning, we set up the GoPro like Telmo did in Lisboa, Portugal, behind the windscreen



But it is getting dark already and the camera adjusts to the brightness of the screen, so the above road image is even darker 



Way back home, from Beaugrenelle, this time my son Clement is holding his GoPro in his hand
Back home on the iMac ...

New Nissan LEAF Test Drive in Paris

Yesterday, my son Clement and I went for an afternoon test drive of the New LEAF lended to by for the week end by Nissan West Europe ...



Leaving from our parking in Boulogne



Unplug test with the J1772 lock on



Black Inside



Battery gage in %



Bird view 4 cam is an awesome feature, but only available at extra low speed



My Charging Equipment for LEAF and Vectrix over the last 2.5 years











The heat is on but is using very little power :-)


Eiffel Tower



















Pont Alexandre III



Place de Clichy, and a very good British vehicle for the city, with a lot of smoke







Montmartre



Let's go up the hill

Sign says: "Paris Respire"



Stuck in Montmartre touristic crowd







Sacré Coeur











Place du Tertre behind







Again, usefull 4 cam view at low speed, to see tourists feet distance from the wheels



Beaubourg / Centre Pompidou



Chatelet / Les Halles



Stuck in traffic, and at one point I decided to use the BUS lane .... got pulled over and eventually got no ticket since a "non polluting vehicle" can use it ! I learned something from this police officer and will use them now :-)



Did I mention I got the 6kW dual charger version ? - like in a Model S -



And we finally lended next to Mairie du 3eme arrondissement, where the Autolib allows charging upfront, easier for a LEAF - but I took my J1772 extension cable in the trunk anyways -



Selfie



















Café near Marché des Enfants Rouges



Phone booth



Nice place to hang out


Cafe Creme

Fashion designer / Store

/ Cafe too




Back to our LEAF, we realized it had not ben charging at all ... I forgot to turn off the charge program ... oh well



But we got billed anyways ... so it is not based on charging only but also swipping your badge on the charging station lid - it is a bit special because it is the third party EV charging station here, for scooters also, so that might explain -

LEAF allowed in the BUS LANE !


Place de la Republique


and we will use this Bus Lane a lot from Republique to Opera, on the way back

Porte Saint Martin


Cops

in the Bus Lane still


A little stop at K-Mart, a Korean market that carries Japanese food, and we took some fresh fish for TeMaki; LED lights for the ceilling


Palais de Tokyo - in Paris -


Tour Eiffel by night, nice



and we are back in Boulogne ...
