I think the heat pump is standard in the UK and the US - it is definitely standard in the UK. It'll be under the standard equipment list if it is. Whether the heat pump has actually been installed though, I have no idea how you would check that.

Thanks Kingske and JimBob for the great data, and happy vaccination day Kingske. More than 258 miles in those conditions is fantastic range - way more than I’ve managed in my Turbo in similar conditions, but I’ve never been able to get the battery that warm before setting off. It really...

That's what I thought, but I think there have been two posters on here who have had dead 12V batteries while unplugged just sitting in their driveways. I was shocked when I read those, since that would mean there's a whole load else going on in there (unless it was just a case of the FOBs being...

Wing misalignment - happens over time. Been an issue for a load of us (me included). Not sure whether this is 2020-only?

I haven't driven the car for 8 weeks (lockdown). Wow, can't believe how much it would hurt to actually put that sentence down in writing! In that time, I have moved the car out of the garage twice (to move the ICE car in and charge its battery), and have, maybe once every 10 days, turned the...

Also agree, it does not make a big difference in range. I think Range mode is a bit of a myth - it does a whole load of things to apparently improve range, but, in reality, I think the main improvement to range is due to the fact that Range mode forces you to drive slower and accelerate less...

It does seem though that Kingske and wemct are seeing slightly different behaviour with further power being used for heating of the battery post-13C/55F

Awesome data, thanks - sorry MadsK, should have remembered it was you who originally posted the info.

I think I saw another poster who posted some really detailed data from charging (really sorry to whomever that was for forgetting your name - with every day being exactly the same, my memory is shot). It seemed that the battery does pull power from the mains to heat up the battery if it is very...

I agree - this must either be a new feature or the coincidence of correlating with a departure timer. There is always some waste heat heating the battery when you charge, but I’ve never seen my battery temperature, on AC charging, increasing from 12.5C/55F to 24C/75F from just a 24% increase in...

If I had a Taycan to play with for 6 months with the promise of a brand new free replacement in September, I can tell you now how I'd be driving that baby... Seriously, though, pleased to hear you've got a solution here. Sounds perfect. It does not, though, suggest to me that Porsche have...

Interesting, maybe it is the subwoofer then. I have the Bose (so also have the subwoofer) - the pocket in mine is deep enough for the PMCC but don't have the cut out to hold it in place.

Is this a 2021 thing? I don't have that cut-out in my 2020.

I assume you’re talking per 100km rather than 100miles? I think the Edmunds article is miles. 323 miles is around 26 kWh/100miles or 16 kWh/100km. I think...

On that article, the consumption is shown as 32.3 kWh/100miles - that’s not 323 miles of range. You’d need consumption around 26 kWh/100miles for that kind of range. Maybe just a mistake or, quite likely, my maths is out. I think that article could potentially be misleading for new owners -...

I wonder whether this has to do with the 2020 OTA units being susceptible to corruption upon downloads. If that is the case, hopefully FOD will work once the OTA issue has been resolved by the mythical software up-date we’ve all been waiting 3 months for.

Assuming you hadn't left the car for like three weeks, that's really worrying. With lockdown, I have been turning the car on for about a minute once every week or two to make sure the 12V battery is charged - it takes about 20-30s to charge from 12.9V back up to the full 13.4V. However, if...

Yeah, given my Winter range is 190-220 miles and I have the Performance Battery Plus (big battery), that's quite phenomenal range with short journeys and the smaller battery.

Wow, so they decided to triple the price?! Not only OFT, but there is some anti-competitive behaviour going on if we are tied to Porsche to carry-out the service.

Also got these prices yesterday. My immediate reaction was W....T....F. Absolutely shocking. This is after - way back in October 2019 admittedly - when I put the order in for the car, I specifically asked the dealer whether service prices would be high having seen some high numbers for Tesla...
