A must have option IMO is Rear Axle Steering !!! It makes an enormous difference when in tight spots (parking garage) and manoeuvring the city centre. My CT feels smaller and easier manoeuvrable then the wife’s XC40 😎
I find the 22kw option useful when on a trip. There are a lot of 22kw chargers, so visiting a museum or resto and having an almost fully charged battery is a pro 😋
Just drove the same as on 80% SOC, I had been driving between 100 and 130 km/h for the past 50 km and was going that speed up until I took the exit to charge. It’s an Ionity next to a highway fuel station. Just had a warning of a ‘low battery charge’ but same performance as always.
When simulating on their website the difference between smart-charging and say a monthly peak of 6kw vs not bothering at all and having a monthly peak of 22kw could be as much as 1200€ per year.
And peak-usage is calculated as highest peak-usage during a 15" timeframe per month.
So actually...
I wonder when they will effectively introduce the capacity tarification ... the regulators website says 'Somewhere in 2022' but they have not yet officially communicated what the impact/cost will be. Somehow I think it won't be this year ... but then again ... you never know for sure with our...
Thx all for the useful input!
I changed my config to the default clear glass. If somehow I still want it tinted I’ll have it retrofitted using xpel tint.
Who has the noise & heat insulated glass option and can comment?
Is it (lightly?) tinted? The configurator shows it a little bit darker than the clear windows, but not as dark as the privacy tinted windows.
Does it interfere with phone (signal/gps) reception?
My car wil soon go into...
Also got a call today saying the Matrix leds are no longer available. It also seems like they probably won’t return until next model year. I settled for the regular leds since I don’t want to wait until September or later, so hopefully no other changes and a pretty CT4S on my driveway beginning...
