I had not seen this change of Ionity charging structure changes since July 2020. In both Finland and France, Ionity now charge per minute!! For non-contract customers only. Porsche and others still have the preferential cost I guess? The charge is now 0.79 Euro per minute instead of 0.79 Euro...
Just saw this in the news today!
For us here in Europe that would work really great. Taycan and model 3 have the same CCS2 charger. Would be fantastic to be able to use the network of Tesla chargers!

I had a strange event with charging this evening. I returned home with car at about 40% charge level at just before 16.00. I had planned to depart again at about 20.15, so set the timer to 80% charge at 20.00. This was set as a once off and not repeat timer.
As it turned out my departure was...
I have followed the experience of the Taycan owners in the US, charging at EA stations, and been horrified to say the least. So I decided today to test out a known Ionity charging station that is about 120 km from my home. Since I had charged my car to 85% I would make it there and back safely...
Here is some data from my charging session in my garage today.
My set up is the PMCC linked with a Porsche Home Energy Manager since we have preferential rates during certain hours of the day and the night. I have a three phase supply with max 32 amp per phase, which the car can obviously not...
This happened to me a few times yesterday! I knew the Taycan was great at ””flying “” along the motorway, but never thought it could go this high!
I guess there was some glitch in software. :)
Hi, I am looking for your experiences with trip planning and charging stops.
The car can plan a trip directly on the PCM and in the manual it states that it will find charging stations and include these. It will also then precondition the battery for fastest possible charging. Not perhaps...
Has anybody tried to use the Connect App to turn on Climate Control?
If you succeeded, and the car was very hot inside, did it turn on the climate system at high power to quickly cool the cabin?
Or did the climate system only turn on and run at quite low speed and not really do much. Mine did...
In connection with @louv’s nice summary of software issues, bugs and feature requests, I just read an article in a Swedish paper about the challenges that VW group have with SW programs. Their launch of the new ID3 has been delayed a bit, but the mechanical cars are produced and now stored at...
I saw this Norwegian test done in mild summer like weather. The same paper did a test during winter and showed very different range results. As a summary Taycan came out very well with a result of 475 km driven against a WLTP range of 450 km! I know it is written in a Viking language!

I just tried to plan a route that I have driven a couple of times on the Porsche website. The route I was looking for was between Vence in southern France to Stockholm, Sweden. Google maps, Waze etc would normally choose a route through Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark etc. for a normal ICE...
