Better than having worries on the road. Safe travels and let us know if the issues are resolved at the end!

It does until you go on a summer vacation and have to wash the car 4 times in a week :)

I got a better one for you. I've been taken to a few stations throughout my travels that do not exist yet! Greece and Croatia are notorious. Network operators are eager to get traffic their way at all cost, even if it means publishing stations a few weeks ahead of time. For your specific case...

Geez, I'd understand such measures for some African republic (no offense, just facts), but what exactly are you guys dealing with in the UK? Is theft at Mad Max levels?

Technically doable, but its like replacing a single tire. The performance characteristics of the whole system change and sets things up for an inconsistent future state.

Good news is, its very descriptive. Bad news is nobody on the forum will be able to pin down the cause. You have to take it to the dealer for diagnostics. The range drop might be indicative of a cell fault as PrudentOcean has observed. One thing I find amusing about all the top brands is and...

Having long abandoned the “ze German” aura, it’s clear that every manufacturer has its issues. These are complex engineering marvels, and we often assume that paying more means the engineers are perfect - but it doesn’t. What truly drives the ownership experience is the dealer, which...

I have only seen numbers in the 26-30kWh range when the terrain has a positive gradient. So yes, I have seen these numbers as well but not on my common routes. I go up for some periods and then go down for some periods (I also have recuperation on all the time) it averages in the 23-24kWh range...

Works on snow too :) just fast charge it so the battery hits 45C!

Ha. There are some weird undocumented features; it's a matter of finding out what those are. Either your app was showing the wrong % to begin with (cached values), or "something" triggered a precondition that lasted for hours. I had the cleaning lady plug in my EQS over the summer (had left it...

They have no clue what is going on :) Servicing vehicles in warranty is 0 profit for them; don't expect them to be overcome with joy on those calls.

I have to say, the mysterious drop is very strange. Are you sure your app was refreshing properly during the same period? Also, was the vehicle set-up with departure times? Observing those and pre-conditioning the vehicle uses up energy. Btw, when I leave on vacations I leave my EVs at about...

In my view that's tasking the vehicle with the wrong "job". This should be a function of the grid/charging station. Almost every home charger that has web connectivity has an API and BMS integrations (HomeAssistant). Mine does and HomeAssistant monitors the grid and adjusts the schedules on it...

I guess the question is, what kind of API are you looking for? If your home charger supports scheduling (my Wallbox does), and most do, then it's simply a matter of setting that up for night hours (or whatever hours are low cost hours). The charger tells the vehicle to stand by and resumes...

Warmer weather and city driving?

If I drive it properly (145-160), variable highway, I'm at 23-24kWh/100km. Gaining those 7kWh difference between my number and your number at the charging station is 4min. I'd rather spend 4min additional at he charging station relaxing rather than spending hours on the road making up for the...

I never charge at Tesla chargers; it's just not worth the hassle. Plenty of other networks throughout Europe. Pre-conditioning, maybe if, maybe not...

Ha, interesting. At 80% or 100% charge? Or regardless of charge level? I'll give it a shot.

I have not seen any noticeable drop in range at a constant outside temperature range and on a common route. Racked up 10K km already. At this time of year (however), the colder it gets, the more kWs go into warming the car and maintaining it warm. Same with my other EVs. One thing I would...

It is not normal and it is very, very annoying. Especially if you have speed bumps on your daily route. Checked with my dealer this week (again), they confirmed (again) that Porsche is aware, but there is no solution provided to them.
