LOL….you guys are funny. The car chirps, burps and farts when you get below a certain battery%. I appreciate the post but there are absolutely no surprises when it comes to remaining range…..
Oh I knew it was low....and I ignored the burps and farts as I was sure I could make it home... More or less ?

Once I was committed though, there was no turning back (I live rurally).

Nice....not wishing to brag but I managed it with 1 mile to spare as I drove into the garage at home returning from Edinburgh to Aberdeen (126 miles) non stop (school boy error and kept ignoring the PIRM advice not realising the pending situation) - never again!

And I beat both of y'all last night. Got home with zero miles to spare!!! In fact, it was zero miles when I was 0.9 miles from home and I had t o slowly nurse it home....made it!

Hahaha I laugh now, I was sweating bullets driving home taking pics didn't come to mind.
But my son found the whole thing hilarious and exciting, he was snapchatting the drive home, he probably had some pics

You should, she will find your manliness at pushing the boundaries so exciting and sexy......or she will look at you like you are a dumbass??

Did anyone watch the Carwow feature on how much further would the Taycan go once you'd hit 0 miles, they tested it to failure, it was about 12-13 miles from memory, it certainly didn't shut down when it got to zero as I was expecting. Anyone else catch this in the UK?
