It might be the warmest day of the year in Seattle - 90F+ - and I parked in the sun! On the way home from my appointment, a HUD warning message (in white) displayed about it being unavailable, and it disappeared, then came back, then went again. Each time, it faded out, not simply on/off. It...

This week, we drove our 4S to a well known destination for us, Kelowna BC. This involves some actual mountains. Some pictures posted in the Frozen Blue photos thread. Here is the profile of the part between Hope BC and Kelowna (trip planner in Plugshare has this graph). From sea level, peaking...

This is the time of year where my solar panels can generate more than the 9+kw charging speed. Now I'm fully charged for a road trip in my fusion powered Macan.

I’ve fast charged a few times and noticed the car does NOT tell you how long you’ve been charging. Either set a phone timer, or watch the EA screen seemed to be the way. Today, I got an app notification for starting the session, but also when I got to 20ish minutes in. And the app now shows...

If you've done business with Porsche Bellevue, you may already have received an invite to their Macan Launch event on Sunday, October 20 from 6-9pm. Nibbly things, cocktails, shiny cars, and an unveiling at 7pm. Probably some speeches too. Presumably you can give them a call to get an invite...

Tesla Bjorn has posted a video of the charging performance of the PPE based Audi Q6 against several similar cars. This is the first time I've seen a PPE car's charging process in such detail. There's also a section with the Q6 charging on a 400v charger, to see how that works. There's also a...
