Carwow

If there were a Hollywood for car reviews, Mat Watson would be its leading man. His videos have the flair of an Oscar-winning director, marrying top-notch photography and editing with the perfect dash of humor. He's like the Spielberg of car review cinema, but with better jokes.

His videos are so full of information, they could pass for PhD theses in 'Automobile-ology', all packaged into bite-sized clips that even your goldfish could pay attention to. Each of Mat’s videos is like a comedy show where the cars are the punchline - a bucket of laughs and a trunk-load of knowledge, all in one. If you're not watching Mat Watson, you're missing out on the fast and the fun-ious of car reviews!

"Kia-Bjørn"

Kia-Bjørn is the undisputed king of electric car testing. He's the superhero of the EV world, with a cape made of charging cables and a utility belt packed with testing equipment. His videos are so detailed, they make standard test procedures look like a toddler's scribble.

With him, we've got 1000 km tests, distance tests, the legendary banana box tests, charging speed duels, and epic sagas from Oslo to the Arctic Circle and back. Unlike your average 9 to 5 car testers who clock out in time to pick up their kids from school, Bjørn operates on 'electric time'. He's a 100% electric car geek who probably dreams in kilowatts and wakes up shouting "range anxiety!"

And what’s Bjørn's secret sauce? It's all "Good Shit", as he’d say. He’s not just selling you stats and figures, he’s selling you a piece of himself - warts, kilowatts, banana boxes, and all. His authenticity is what powers his success, just like a high-capacity battery propelling an EV. So buckle up, and let Bjørn take you for a ride into the electrifying world of cars!

Autogefuhl

Thomas is to car reviews what Tolkien was to fantasy epics - his tests are thorough, comprehensive, and would give 'War and Peace' a run for its money. Give him a set of headlights, and he'll give you a discourse that lasts longer than some celebrity marriages.

We should erect a monument in his honor for his tireless efforts in explaining every nook and cranny of a vehicle. But honestly, sometimes his tests could use a "Too Long; Didn't Watch" summary. Or maybe a half-time show. You've got to applaud his dedication though - it takes a special kind of person to turn a car review into a feature-length film. Lights, camera, action, Thomas!

Late Brake Show

Jonny is a bit like Thomas. He could take 10 minutes just to explain the front grille of a car. In fact, if 'car fronts' were a soap opera, Jonny would be its Emmy-award winning narrator.

Jonny is a touch old school, you see. He jots down his thoughts in a notebook - yes, an actual paper one! In an age where most people store their thoughts in the cloud, Jonny keeps his firmly grounded in ink and parchment. However, this tends to result in a veritable word salad of car facts and figures.

Thankfully, Jonny's verbosity isn't quite on par with Kyle's. When it comes to gabbing about cars, Jonny’s more of a babbling brook to Kyle's roaring river. Let's just say, if their words were fuel, Jonny's car would be sputtering at half tank while Kyle's would be gunning for the moon!

Out of Spec Reviews

Kyle Conner is like the Energizer bunny of car reviewers - he just keeps going and going! His videos are quite intriguing, but they should come with a warning: "May Cause Verbal Overload". The fast-forward button certainly earns its keep during his episodes.

Most of his content is as American as apple pie, but every so often, he hops across the pond to give European cars a spin. With Kyle, you get a front-row seat to the rollercoaster ride that is the U.S electric car scene.

One of Kyle's unique talents is his ability to chat about cars non-stop for an hour, a feat worthy of a spot in the Guinness World Records. He buys cars like some people buy coffee - constantly and compulsively.

The best part? It's a family affair. With his girlfriend Alyssa as his sidekick and his dad running his own channel, they're like the Fast and Furious family of the electric car world. Now that's what I call putting the 'car' in 'family'!

Munro Live

Munro & Associates is a firm that's all about "Reversed Engineering". They dismantle cars, fridges, airplanes and a lot more to check the quality and suggest improvements. It's like the CSI of manufactured goods, but instead of finding the cause of death, they're sniffing out the cause of rattles and faulty widgets.

On the YouTube channel Munro Live, the focus is mostly on car autopsies, but they also have podcasts, videos from trade fairs (including those in Norway, because who doesn't love a good Nordic adventure?), factory tours, road trips and a bit of this and that.

Many of the videos star the boss man himself, Sandy Munro, and Cory Stubin, who's the daily doer of stuff at M&A. It's like watching an episode of "Breaking Bad" but instead of cooking meth, they're cracking open Teslas.

This is a channel for folks who lie awake at night wondering about the quality of a Tesla seat or the secret ingredient in the Ford F150's dashboard plastic. But fear not, they also have plenty of great interviews and other features. So if you're a self-proclaimed nerd who loves knowing the ins and outs of everything from a Tesla's floor mat to a fridge's ice maker, then congratulations - you've found your tribe!

Norsk Elbilforening.

The Electric Car Association delivers standard car tests and deserves kudos for their short and informative videos. It's like they've trimmed the fat off the usual car review, serving up lean, mean, electric info-machines. No fluff, no fuss, just a well-oiled assembly line of knowledge. Their channel is the car review equivalent of a pit stop - quick, efficient, and getting you back on the road in no time.

Kris Rifa

Kris bases much of his work on the same approach as Bjørn Nyland, but he doesn't have quite as many different test categories as Bjørn. The menu at Kris's YouTube bistro is slightly less diverse than the buffet at Bjørn's. Unfortunately, health issues have put a few speed bumps on Kris's road in recent years, slowing down his video production. Let's just say, his channel has been running on a bit of a reduced charge lately. Still, when Kris gets behind the wheel, he never fails to deliver quality content.

As a seasoned TV news journalist trained in 1996-98 at Volda University, I'm like the espresso of news reporting - short, intense, and fully loaded. I can condense War and Peace into a haiku if I need to. Give me 30 seconds, or 1, 2, or 3 minutes, and I'll deliver a story that's tighter than a pair of skinny jeans after Christmas.

But alas! The land of YouTube is overrun with videos that have the pacing of a three-toed sloth on sedatives. I've practically sworn off car reviews to keep my recommendations list from turning into a snooze-fest.

You know the drill with standard car videos: exhibit the car's exterior (like it's on the catwalk), tour the front and back seats (like they're royal chambers), flaunt the trunk and frunk (as if they're Aladdin's cave), flaunt the dashboard (like it's a Picasso), and then some driving and chit-chat about the car (as riveting as watching paint dry). Yawn. How about a dash of creativity, folks?
