Bit rubbish really. Driver shouldn’t have to worry about this.

I was charging at ionity. I will look into the battery temperature more next time. So let me make sure I understand this correctly. There is no battery preheating button? You can only precondition the battery using navigation to a charger? Does that mean apple car play navigation using Waze is...

Ive had an Audi EV for some years. From plug into a commercial DC port it ramps straight up to 150kwh charing right the way to 80% full before ramping down in steps for the final 20%. Same with a Taycan and its no faster then 100kwh charging for much of the range, The advertised >200kwh charing...

certainly from a UK perspective, security cameras are no deterrent to a car thief. Might give you evidence of what time of the day it was done and how many were involved. Faraday box at home. What I don't do is have a faraday pouch in briefcase. Should do that really if car parked near...

Back 30y ago Mercedes was the same. Now, certainly in the uk, many options are bundled in packs. I’ve often thought it’s probably cheaper to have everything there rather than have to build cars with such bespoke capability. Presumably this is especially true of software options. Each to their own

Thanks. Astonishing vehicle

New GTS. Watched a YouTube video of Taycan Easter eggs. The heated wheel was one of them. lo and behold my car has it. It wasn’t on the spec sheet. quite surprised to be honest

OK worked it out. I had ordered both ID and ALK on FOD. The following morning ID was installed and operating but not till the following day the ALK installed. So when I posted the car was using LKA not ALK. Just tested it on a 30 mile motorway drive. It was perfect. Spot on, 70mph passing huge...

ok, looks like that's the issue. I was in LKA not ALK. The latter is still downloading.

New 2023 GTS. Specced with ACC. I downloaded ALK via FOD and am in the fee 3 month period. I have an Eton with lane keeping/autodrive and it's rock solid. Keeps the car bang in the lane on motorway speeds. The GTS was different. Don't know if Ive done somethignwrong but it was bouncing between...

Thanks. I’ll charge to 80% then

Question; new GTS. It’s got a 95kw battery but I read circa 8x kw is usable. does this mean charging to 100% routinely is fine because effectively it’s only Charing to 80%ish anyway? or like other EV’s is setting max charge to 80% the right thing to do

picked up new Taycan. Feels like it has confirm access. Door handles pop open on approach and rear boot opening with foot swipe works. As I understand it, that is comfort access. However, thing is it was not specced on the car and My Porsche has it was a £1000 option or 3 month trial (which I...

that's brilliant. Love ionity. So quick

Thanks, what I'm asking is the Porsche Charging service comes fee for 3 years. In UK ionity is near 69p per kw but with Porsche service it's 30p kw. Im wondering if that discounted price per kw is restricted to charging the Taycan or not? As in, could I change a non Porsche EV at ionity for the...

Can you only use the Taycan at ionity or any EV with your card

Ah yes, they mentioned a card and did an online form. I think it’s being posted.

Hi, DOnt quite understand how charging works at the UK main dealers. On zap map it implies there's a 85p per kw charge via shell but then another price of 31p per kW with a separate fee per minute which seems most odd. I'm new to the Taycan. Does Porsche have ionity access?

reasonable quotes from admiral recently

am I right in thinking once GTechniq is done a PPF cannot be put over it? Needs PPF first?
