There's some bad cells in it definitely. Range has reduced significantly, but in a 2015 there's no range guarantee other than "completely failed pack", and that almost never happens because they just stop using bad cells. Newer models have a range guarantee.
They replaced the battery in my Model S at 18k miles and I wish they did it again. Porsche is clearly going through teething issues with their first BEV, but I prefer them being proactive here.
I got Tesla insurance when it first came out. They couldn't figure out billing. Dropped me for non-payment without notice. Then sent me an apology letter and begged me to come back.
I figured if an insurance company can't even figure out how to take in money... which is the whole point of it...
BTW, range-wise… our 2015 P90DL (v1 battery pack) only rates at 230mi fully charged now - and I've never hit close to what it rates. My Turbo shows 265mi and it seems to actually hold to its mileage.
I feel like Innodrive is pretty close to AP1. Lane holding isn't as good but the "symbiotic...
I was looking for a Gen5 ACR Viper for a while. Found a great one - decent miles so it had been used but not too many. Was in great shape, everything looked splendid.
Checked the CarFax and saw it was company owned. Same deal. It had been a track rental car - even traced it to the outfit that...
I think your envelope might be dirty? ;-) 0.1 ohm for a meter or two cable would be a lot. I wouldn't be shocked if they were using something like 00 cable which isn't that huge (~9mm diameter) and that has a nominal resistance of 0.4 milliohms / meter, so you're off by a few orders of...
If it's the Carlsbad one, I had a great experience buying my (new) Taycan from Andre Serpoosh there a few weeks ago. He was super responsive and great to work with. And I did it all remotely from up here in San Jose over phone / text.
Yes, the SNR is definitely much better even with the road noise. What I think is interesting is that I almost find the gray concrete here more annoying in the Porsche because it's so much more silent the rest of the time. But you're still talking about a much lower noise flor even over things...
Honestly I've been a little frustrated with Launch Control. In my Turbo it's never launched perfectly, the TC is always kicking in and I'm getting rear wheel hop. I wonder if there's something slightly up with mine?
By comparison our Ludicrous and M3P+ cars always launched flawlessly. Their TC...
