Damn, that's Good to Know. I've often wondered about this myself. Thanks!
Edit: after reading until the end of the thread I see that apparently this does not work :(
Yeah, agreed that this graph is a bit more accurate than the insideEVs one, although I do find it rare to actually get a full 150kW on a 150kW EA station. That being said, I've definitely personally seen 100kW+ rate of charge until 90% SoC.
Just wanted to share a video I recorded of my first time driving through some fun twisty roads for this long of a time. The route was Highway 9, Bear Creek Road, and Highway 17 in Northern California. Highway 9 in particular was fantastic. Very well paved, nicely banked, and nice scenery.
I...
Well, ignoring the fact that my post is over year old at this point...
I ordered an inventory model, so I had no choice in my config. I bought it because it checked off most of the boxes I had been looking for (color, battery size, not too many options to keep the price "low"). When I made this...
Worst case, even if for some reason you aren't able to get the free charging, you should at least be able to pay for charging at EA (or other) stations.
Thanks for your write up, glad you made it to Los Gatos safely! I'll repeat myself from my earlier post -- if you have time, I highly suggest you drive the 17, Bear Creek Rd, 9 loop. The 9 especially is beautiful, well paved, banked, and twisty. I just did this drive a week ago, my first...
After making the drive down the California coast last Sunday, I have a feeling that the congestion is largely due to it being Sunday. In all my other trips between LA and SF, the stations have been pretty much empty, at most 1 other vehicle at any given station. Last Sunday, multiple stops along...
Best of luck on your trip @DerekS! I was going to suggest you cut across California to the coast and drive up the 101/1 instead of driving the mind numbing 5 freeway, but I recognize that day 2 is an estimated 11+ hours already. Perhaps next time!
Also, I see you are ending in Los Gatos. I just...
This is the first pic of the Lucid that actually looks decent to me, at least from this angle. All the other two toned variations with champagne/burgundy and such looked horrible imho.
btw, just so I'm clear, this braying is not the same as a sort of air whooshing sound I hear when I apply my brakes at lowish (city streets) speeds to come to a stop, is it? Because I have that, and just sort of figured it was normal.
I agree with Dave, no reason it can't be an option. People are free to choose which mode they want to use. For example, do you also feel that no Porsche should have adaptive cruise control, active lane keeping, etc.? With how good the Taycan is at touring, there's sometimes where you just want...
Yeah, if it works for you, then that's all good. My point is simply that Amazon forced you to buy that extra device to get hands free support.
Spotify, for example, does integrate with Siri, so you can ask your phone to play music on Spotify and it works. No extra device needed.
Ah ok, in that case, it is likely that Amazon has not added Siri support, specifically because they want you go buy an Echo Auto. See this thread from a couple of years ago.
