I really hope this doesn’t happen but would like to know if it is possible. I’m <10 days away from taking delivery. My parking space is very small, I can imagine that if the car is plugged in on the passenger side then it will be possible to get in without seeing the cable and realising it is still plugged in.

It’s a different scale but I’m sure I wouldn’t be the only one that has walked off with a phone/laptop whilst still being plugged in!

Top Gear demonstrated how to make this a reality.

Oops this clip cuts off the part where they install a diesel generator in the back of the car and use it to continuously recharge the car.

Too bad….think of all the extra range if you could drive while plugged in. Stop nannying us Porsche.
