Really enjoying first month of my Taycan Turbo but niggled with the number of different charging companies, cards etc that seem to be needed to allow flexible route planning. The Porsche satnav only seems to show the Porsche partner charging stations which are few and far between on my routes. Does anyone know if other stations can be automatically loaded in? e.g. from Zapmap. Any advice gratefully accepted.

I am not sure if this works or helps (still waiting for my delivery) but, can you not just use Apple CarPlay and then use apps like Zapmap or even "a better route planner" directly from CarPlay?

Search this forum for "precondition" and you will find several threads discussing the problem that the Taycan will only precondition the battery for fastest charging if you are navigating to a charging station in its limited database. Some say that driving in Sport Plus warms the battery to approximate preconditioning.

Thanks for the replies. I will try Airplay and see if IOS 14 opens up more apps when it arrives. Cheers
