0% Charge

[007]

Still don’t get it. You’re joking, right? I mean charging and using between 50-70%.

PS Are you sure they are not charging? It looks very much they’re using one of these -

Yes, there may be some farce on my part. My apologies. “Comedy can be a cathartic way to deal with personal trauma.” -Robin Williams

There may be a trickle charger connected, I don’t know, but that would explain the slow rise in 🪫 . The dealership is too far away for me to drop in and check.

0 miles, 0 range and -3% battery apparently is my best effort.

Good work, you win!!

I’ve always thought charging to 120% would yield better range, but using the other end is good too.

No; you should try to avoid getting below 20% if at all possible to maximize battery life. While there is some question about whether charging to 100% is bad, there is very little dispute about whether this is.

not quite correct, there is nothing bad about going below 20%, I try to run the car as low as possible when road tripping.
the problem is letting the car sit for extended periods at low SOC.

as long as you charge the car when at a low SOC you'll have no issues running the car at a low SOC

Low side buffer is there, do not worry.
When SOC displayed 2% the Real (HV Battery) SOC was 8%.

Anyone get to these battery levels before topping off again?

I've had the Taycan to 0%, had it automatically shut down at a stop, then got it to turn back on to turtle mode limp 12 blocks back home. True story.

I've also driven it 2 miles to a charger on 0% only for the first charger to not work.
