  1. Somewhat biased criticism on a somewhat biased Edmunds range comparison

    At about 7 minutes, they claim they could not use the car on a regular basis since range mode limits to 70 mph, and the maximum speed in his area is 70 mph, but people drive 80 mph. He then goes on to say that that would apply to the majority of the US since 70 is the max speed in many states...
  2. CarPlay wifi ?

    in the charging NA app, it says plug and charge is enabled for my car and In Speaking with EA, they said they just have begun the rollout so hopefully only a matter of time
  3. OK to full charge to 100% regularly?

    probably because that is what their internal testing said is the best for the battery.
  4. Your thoughts on the RWD Taycan coming 2021?

    I was ready to sell my 4S for the RWD until I saw that it only did 42km of drifting. Since my commute is 44km, I was hoping it would do at least that. I may wait until next year.
  5. Porsche drifts Taycan electric car to new world record of 42 km straight — not a typo

    article claims it is already on sale in China.
  6. Tesla Model Y vs. Porsche Taycan: Real-World Range Test - Edmunds

    It really is not worth the effort. I gave up that long ago and am happier for it! Besides, I would be really surprised if a main criteria in cross shopping an S with a Taycan is range. It is like saying that a Camry gets better gas mileage than a 911. The interesting thing about your chart is...
  7. Automatic Trunk Opener not working with foot motion

    From the manual, I thought it was a swiping motion (e.g. from left to right), but it is not. It is kicking from the back of the car towards the front - aiming to kick under the car by the “C in “Porsche”.
  8. Tesla Model Y vs. Porsche Taycan: Real-World Range Test - Edmunds

    uhhh, the EPA has been "testing" Tesla long before Trump was in office and the results from that didn't match real world either. The testing protocol was defined ages ago too. Not everything is Trump's fault.
  9. Installed roof rack and bike carrier to carry mountain bike - the big experiement

    Am new to bikes on the roof rack - I used to put on back of previous car - but I did also buy the roof rack. But, why is it that you take the front wheel off? Is it aerodynamics or that it is safer or some other reason? Thanks.
  10. CarPlay wifi ?

    I did hear back from a VP of Customer Experience at PCNA who wrote: I expect that they want to be careful about over promising since in software development, who knows what can happen...and when.
  11. Tesla Model Y vs. Porsche Taycan: Real-World Range Test - Edmunds

    Well, that is confusing and inconsistent with what they say elsewhere. From the manual, page 79. (That is for temps between -20C to 30C) The 85% listed in your post is how much you should max charge if the ambient temp is over 30C.
  12. Tesla Model Y vs. Porsche Taycan: Real-World Range Test - Edmunds

    The only thing you are missing is "marketing". Good enough is good enough. I don't remember the 0-60 times of any of the cars I owned, I just knew they were good enough for me. Now it is about range. Pre-covid, I would do maybe 2-3 long trips a year, so whether the car does 220 or 270...
  13. CarPlay wifi ?

    I think emailing is a good idea, but the question is whether there are people lower in the org who would be more likely to even read emails coming in from people ? I imagine the CEO gets tons of emails with someone else determining which ones get answered
  14. Tesla Model Y vs. Porsche Taycan: Real-World Range Test - Edmunds

    ...and somehow, the EPA test, with it's 50mph average, or whatever, took almost 30% more - what a laughable test!
  15. Tesla Model Y vs. Porsche Taycan: Real-World Range Test - Edmunds

    From my experience, it would take a LOT of effort to get only 49 kWh/100 miles. Nothing close to "normal" driving under average conditions. I get between 30 and 33 depending on driving style.
  16. Tesla Model Y vs. Porsche Taycan: Real-World Range Test - Edmunds

    Porsche recommends 85 where did they say this was at 100 percent? Also they extrapolated out for that last 10 percent on the tesla
  17. Don Breaks His Taycan - The Saga of the 12v Battery

    I wonder how many people have had this issue with non-Porsche mobile chargers. Sorry to hear about your problems.
  18. Stuck at Emden since 7th Nov

    Check with your dealer for which ship you are scheduled on. It is available in the dealer system (same one where they show the schedule, just a different tab). My car got to the port around when a ship was loading, but wasn't scheduled for that ship and so it didn't make it on that one and had...
  19. Drifting a Porsche Taycan Turbo S Turned Me Into an EV Believer - Road and Track

    Finally a review where they don't comment on the "turbo" name. Maybe the tide is changing! Good article.
  20. EA Plug & Pay

    Do you remember if that screen is new? Can also be that the account info is not yet updated (e.g. it talks successfully to the car, but the car doesn't communicate that my account has the free charging yet). I will check again tomorrow. Just guessing here. Also possible that an update is...
