I'm sure I got told some guff when ordering about the 150kw DC thing only being useful if you use those 400v chargers "on the continent" and not in the UK
Still alive. I should clarify. There's nothing in "my Porsche" spec sheets other than the following as optional in first picture and standard in second.
Sure. It's near Stafford Ionity (which was a shxt show yesterday evening). The irony of getting full 115kw charge from this empty charger Vs waiting in a queue for likely 90kw from the Ionity.
I didn't even know the 125kw chargers might only go at 50kw if wrong voltage.
As mentioned in another thread. I am amazed at numbers like 250 miles in winter being achievable. I’m in U.K. with a CT 21” wheeled Turbo. Today in rain, 5 degrees C, ac in eco plus and in range mode I got 175 miles with 5 miles to empty. From a start on a IONITY charger all warmed up and...
Thanks yea I’ve figured that one even though when you call and ask they say it’s closed out of hours. Great charger nice views. If it’s busy you can fall back to burton in Kendal. Although those seem plagued with slow charging cars blocking everything.
Yup. Every time. It's often correlated with how busy the charger is but not always. The only place I consistently see the speed follow the ideal charging curvein UK is Porsche charging points.
My neg is that they often run very slow (50-70) where I need them.
Leeds Skelton and Cobham especially.
Stafford patchy (today was 220 last week 50)
Agree all EU ones I've used have been awesome.
At least some other options now with Electric Highway/ Fast Ned / Porsche.
I'm really hoping tomorrows run from Hertfordshire to Glasgow early doors will be less painful now temps are back up. I was even looking at when the new Panamera hybrid is released!
Rather frustrating to see that all the Porsche garages en route are closed tomorrow. Wpuld have been way better...
I read these figures with envy. I dont think I’ve ever seen a long trip get more than 2.9mi / kw in summer. I just did a trip up and down to Newcastle in the cold and got more like 1.7 (got down to 4 miles to empty after giving up waiting at Stafford Iointy and only just made it to Porsche...
The disparity in when folks put deposits down is massive. Is there any logic to it? Uk orders seem way slower. My deposit for TTCT went in September. Not a word of anything yet. (Glad I bought a used Turbo at same time)
