Taycan J1.1 Charging Limit Bar Option

[cyber1967]

Hello everyone, let me introduce myself.
My name is Adriano, and I’m from Italy.

I own a Taycan Sport Turismo Model Year 2023, and I’m very satisfied with it.
However, one of the hardest things to accept—coming from two previous Tesla vehicles (Model 3 Performance and Model Y Long Range)—is the charging limit management system. Not being able to set the limit simply using a slider, like in the new J1.2 model, is quite inconvenient.

While watching some videos on YouTube, I came across a Swiss user with a Taycan J1.1. At one point, while sitting in the car and talking about its features, the battery screen appeared, showing the option to adjust the charging limit using a slider, just like in the new model.

Did I see it wrong? Does this function actually exist? Is it part of a software update?

Today, at the service center—where I went for the well-known battery recall campaigns (fortunately, my car was fine)—they had no knowledge of it.

Thanks to anyone who can provid

e an answer!

That’s not a sliding bar. That is the charging screen and the line is the maximum charge level set ie 80%, the green is the current level of charge. This screen pops up when car is plugged in.

on j1.1 that bar is just an indicator of what the current limit is; it is not a slider.
On j1.2 it is also a slider

What do you mean ?

It's not clear from your picture what the target charge level is in your general profile that is managing the charging session.

Also, your AC charging rate is quite low. What is your setup?

There is no slider in your J1.1 Taycan.

Charging and charging limits are really very straightforward but this forum has done a marvellous job of confusing the hell out of many people.

Use your My Porsche App to programme. I always recommend a profile (location based if at home) and a timer to control the ready by time and level of target charge to be achieved.

 

[W1NGE]

Ok so a target of 75%.

To control when you want the car to be charged by add a timer (departure).

What charger / EVSE do you use and what amps is your electric supply?

All programming must be disabled on your EVSE and rely only on your PCM / My Porsche App.

I only see a bar when I use “Timer”. I find it easier to use a profile, mine is set at 85%. Unless I change a setting, when I plug in to my L2 charger, it just charges to 85% and stops. No line.

Yes, I agree it isn’t intuitive.

Oh look, another thread about how to configure Timers and Profiles....

No, is’nt another thread , i know very well how the profile work.
The question is another but the people refuse to respond.
Ther’s no bar on graphics in my car , simply, seem a different software like J1.2.

My J1 Taycan is on charge right now.

The maximum charge of 80% is shown above the slider.

This is not on a timer, just charging till it reaches the desired %

Is this what you are describing?

This is not the graphic I mean. It’s the one with a bar to limit the charging percentage. But I understand now, as the user above said, that you need to set a maximum charge value in addition to a timer.
So, to answer the first question in the video: no, there is no new software similar to the J1.2 model on the J1.1.


I asked because, according to reliable internal sources, this feature, along with some others from the new model, will be introduced during 2025.


Thanks, everyone, for your responses.
