Have done a lot of Googling on this but still a bit lost. Seeking the wisdom of the forum.
I charged up recently on a 120kw Instvolt and only got ~60kw. Some factors:
Charged from about 10%-75% over 45 mins or so
Battery was cold on arrival
For most of the time there was another car using the...
Have done a bunch of long trips over the xmas period and consumption has ranged from 2.2-2.4mi/kwh, which gives a full range of 190-210 miles in temperatures generally between 5-10 degrees. For short trips consumption is much worse but it also doesn't really matter for those.
It's a new car so...
If I set the destination or stopover as a charger shown in the Porsche sat nav the car will preheat the battery. But if I want to stop at a charger not shown in the navigation, is there a way to get the car to preheat for that stop?
I thought of two things that might work:
1) Add a...
Do you have the 21s? In which case which tyres did you get or did you get a whole new set of wheels? I thought there weren't good winter tyres compatible with the 21s.
My dealer is also East London and I just today turned down the Gtechniq option @ £899 (ceramic coating) or BodyCare @ £549 (wax based coating).
I never had paint protection before and wasn't sure if it's worth having. Presumably it's cheaper to get elsewhere anyway I thought.
Gleaned from vesselfinder by searching the name of the boat they told me and checking the arrive/depart times at Sheerness. The dealer's info I assume comes from the order system but I've never seen a screenshot of that as others on the forum have.
Hoping to get mine within a week or so. Good luck!
When my dealer told me it was on a boat (and the name of the boat) I checked vesselfinder and that boat had already arrived and subsequently left Sheerness a couple of days earlier. Some days later they updated me that the car was at Sheerness (after it had been there for a week). So there might...
Those Wetherby chargers are in the ideal location for me but the reviews on Zap Map aren't very encouraging. Leeds would be good but there's only six and all the reviews complain about speed.
It's really hard to interpret reviews as there's no way to know which problems are user error (not...
My car is due to arrive soon, so I've been checking chargers on Zap Map to plan a journey I'll have to do fairly regularly - which is to drive from London to either Darlington or Northumberland with no charging at the destinations.
Looking at the reviews of chargers like Wetherby (new Gridserve...
I just found today that the car made a boat , so the wait was about 2 weeks at emden, It remains to be seen how long it now takes to get to the dealer.
Thanks for the comments. It reckon it weakens signal strength, so if you're in a good signal area it'll be fine but if out in the sticks the noise insulating glass might be the difference between signal or not. The UK is pretty well covered so probably this affects US people more than the UK...
