    Electric Vehicles Are Way, Way More Energy-Efficient Than Internal Combustion Vehicles - MotorTrend Article

    The only way I can see it adding up is for all the numbers to have been measured independently, and then presented as percentages of the original energy input to the system. So the denominator on that 22% is not "how much energy the regen braking system saw", but rather "how much energy the...

    New Porsche batteries coming with 800 mile range

    I think those are best considered the same source, because the top one quotes the bottom one.

    New Porsche batteries coming with 800 mile range

    A brief internet search shows me two potential places where you might have heard this - RepairPal (US) and WarrantyWise (UK). Both of those look to me to be aftermarket warranty companies, who would seem to have fairly significant incentives to (a) drive internet traffic to their sites and...

    "EV Deserts: County Economic Groups Show EV Charger Divide Across US States" - Article

    I find the "desert" argument far more persuasive when applied to something like places that sell nutritious food or provide medical care than to public DC charging stations. I would think that far more EV owners have L2 chargers at home than they do operating theaters or farms.

    Car turns back on after shutoff

    You might want to look into one of the myriad of "Faraday pouch" accessories. If the non-active key is encased in one of those, the car wouldn't know it was present.

    Freeze date imminent... Option stress

    Is there a particular reason you recommend the 3D surround view, as opposed to the ordinary 360° surround view? I ask because I specifically went to the dealer to check this, and the car they had on the lot with Remote Parking Assist (which brings 3D view, according to the configurator)...

    Option choices compromises

    I am in your exact same position, and since my order was already V215'd, I made a trip to the dealer to check on two specific things and get non-color stuff finalized properly. One was whether I could get something in writing that aftermarket full activation of matrix headlights (US market)...

    OTA Software Update (July 17, 2023)!

    This is probably not a very useful idea, seeing as how you've already seen the post in question, but perhaps take another glance through https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/ota-update-high-tension-battery-wnw2.16152/#post-248525. Is it possible that you have parking pre-climatisation...

    Members Say Hello Here!

    Greetings all! I have spent the last 25 years honoring the E28 that my father gifted me when he upgraded to a newer model. About a decade ago I told myself that I would keep driving this car until there was an electric option that was right for me. After 350,000 miles, that time has hopefully...

    Looking for advice - PTS Order since late 2022

    As this is literally my first post on this forum, insight is probably too much to ask for. What I can offer is one lonely data point, which still needs to be taken with the proverbial grain of salt labeled "milestones and dates are non-binding and may vary in individual cases". I placed an...
