I will be storing my 4S EV for 5 months, indoors , concrete floor, under a cover, at about room temperature. What is the recommended procedure?
Thank you.

I’m doing the same, and had planned on a cover. Porsche strongly recommends not to cover a car on a charge, which I have learned is the best practice. So I’m going to store it at 60% with the home charger at 220V, which will keep the 12V from dying. Also have tire ā€˜pillows’ to avoid flat spots- it’s a heavy car. Good luck, safe travels.
