Nice picture!
I think you might be the first Aussie Taycan owner on here, welcome!
How’s the charging infrastructure over there?

Quick one. Who did you insure with. Seems many Aussie insures are scared of the Taycan ?

Jet charge took a day to install the charger. I have 3 phase And solar. Charging the car at home is a breeze. I set it to 85%

So far so good have used 2 public DC chargers. You get 3 years free charging with charge fox in Aust.

Shannon’s. 2 year new car replacement. Around $2300
That's not bad. Is yours financed or paid upfront because Shannons quoted me $5300 for the Turbo which I thought was a bit rich as it is only 80Kish more.

Maybe the word "Turbo" scares them

Hi mate, did you have to set anything up to get charge fox free charging account or just plug the car in and it recognises the vehicle?

Charged at a dc rapid charger - plug and go. Also at the dealership. Service guy said we have my21 so the handshake happens at the car - no need for a seperate card tap transaction.

no finance. Limited km option (like 10k / year) but I also have a multi car discount. Yes. I think the word turbo might scare them. ?
