Article from motor1, Dominik Wilde
https://uk.motor1.com/news/391604/g-rahal-porsche-taycan-positive-negative/
Strange article to me, apperently from someone who is apparently new to an EV. Discussion of how slow it charges at 120v, seriously? When it only draws less than a hair dryer to avoid blowing a breaker.
Also says it makes no noise, I know that the Electric Sport Sound is synthesizer enhanced electric motor sound, but it has it and he has a Turbo S so it would be in there base.
He also talked about the infrastructure not being there (I agree it's still lacking), but that it would take tens of millions to build out. I guess he didn't s not aware of EA.
I hope Mr. Rahal spends more time with the vehicle and gets a 50A 240V charger set up at home to learn a little less fear of EVs. But they do require planning today on longer journeys, for sure.
p.s not sure if this deserves its own thread, but I couldn't find a reasonable alternate place to post.

Over a 10-year period ending in 2027, Electrify America will invest $2 billion in ZEV infrastructure, access, and education programs in the United States. Of this $2 billion, we are investing $800 million in California, one of the largest ZEV markets in the world.
