Yeah, I let the browser generate a strong password for the Porsche account. It was, let's say fun, typing it in when taking delivery. "No, it's 6&wL... not 6&Wl..."

The day we picked up the car, with already enough power to get home, the first thing we did was visit an EA station to try out the public charging experience. Plug and Charge did not work because apparently it's not enabled by default. Rather than dig through PCM menus I swiped a card and...

Totally normal. There are 3 temperature sensors in each battery module. That's why you see every third one much higher. Based on my observation I think the third one in each group is the one that's closest to the bottom of the module where the heat transfer takes place. This is my car while...

I suspect the two speed transmission still helps with high speed cruising efficiency. Not particularly helpful in most markets, but given the home market that's likely one of their goals.

But, there will be new NF0 EV specific tires available.

I disagree. It looks to me that someone wanted the lights with the wiring harness intact. The right side show's a lot of experimental cutting including what looks like a hole in the top so they could reach inside and unplug the light. On the left side they seem to have learned their lesson and...

I'm having trouble wrapping my head around this. The battery is under warranty, get it replaced under warranty. Why worry about keeping it limping along when you can get it fixed and likely get a loaner while it's in the shop.

This is interesting. It's showing 304 in the car.

We went with the 4 CT rather than the 4S CT because the extra acceleration (and that's the only functional difference between the two) wasn't worth it. It's never going to see a track, and in traffic flooring the accelerator in the 4 CT makes it go like a stabbed rat. Instead of half a second...

To each their own, to me it's the most beautiful and visually interesting part of the Taycan exterior design.

Did they? I know plenty of people are saying tri-motor, but I haven't heard Porsche say that yet. For all I know it could be they replaced the copper windings with gold to reduce resistance and increase power.

All I know on this subject is that my investments in Quantumscape have turned thousands of dollars into hundreds of dollars.

Thank you for posting. I've seen many people report their car passed it, but I think you're the first case I've heard of where the car failed. The bad news is, it's been known to take months for a battery to arrive. You said your dealer said only 1% are affected, the recall in the US said 3%...

I don't know about overrides, but the mapping of the accelerator probably changes while it's being held. Probably the equivalent of the remapping that happens when going from normal to sport plus just time limited.

In the video it looks like the driver is holding down the right paddle to initiate it and releasing it to stop the extra power mode. The countdown on the dash is likely to automatic shutdown of the extra boost. Honestly, the primary user of the Taycan will love that. "I need to pass this...

Yup, which is why I mentioned it was taken at 3%. The cell voltage graph looked fairly ragged which I'd expect after starting at 100%, driving down to 50% fast charging to 80% driving down to 10% then fast charging to 45% then driving it down to 5%. Nothing looked alarming, but the range from...

Since I pulled all the data yesterday I might as well update the info. SoH 98.81 (down over 1%) at 2000 miles taken at a state of charge of 3% DCFC 130KWH AC charging 1060 kWh

Something I noticed last night while getting stats on the car before it charged was this page in the car scanner app dashboard. I'm guessing this is part of what the car uses for range estimation and why it's so accurate. I infer that each category corresponds to a speed taken from the Nav...

If I take my mileage over the total KWh the EVSE has consumed I'm currently at 1.7mi/KWh.

I'm a big fan of the Wallbox. It's doing something right now that I know other chargers have had issues with. I have the hours between 3 and 8 PM (when I pay a surcharge) blocked at the charger. I came back from the dealer today with 5% battery, because a profile can't go lower than 25% if it...
