    BYD showcasing 1000kw charging in their new sedan Han L EV

    Interesting calculation. But at the 5 minute end it will take longer to connect and disconnect the car than to charge. So you will never have more than 4 actually pulling that power at the same time

    BYD showcasing 1000kw charging in their new sedan Han L EV

    The problem will be the MG or Zoe driver whose car will only take 50kW who thinks they will get to charge their car up to 100% faster on the 1000kW supply

    "When EV startups shut down, will their cars still work?" - article

    We recently had this concern with the Andersen charger. Fortunately it was bought out and they have kept the cloud services running. Otherwise accessing some of its features would have become impossible.

    Eclipse in Austin while overcast.

    These were ones I took of the 2017 eclipse from South Carolina

    Eclipse in Austin while overcast.

    You would only need the filter to take photos during partial eclipse. When fully eclipsed you would remove any filter to take your photos. You also get the diamond ring photo without a filter then need to replace it again after that few seconds pass

    About to lock in Macan GTS. Will I regret not choosing the facelift Taycan 4S?

    Macan GTS just feels pedestrian and unresponsive compared to my Taycan. However, post the same question on a Macan forum and they will give you completely the opposite answer. Maybe you have already done this - but forums are pretty polarised toward the car they represent.

    Luton airport car park fire - started in a diesel car

    I am amazed that people haven’t yet been speculating that an EV started the fire, but it looks like it was a diesel. ICE cars - dangerous things. Should be banned!

    A Taycan or an BMW I5 M60- what would you do?

    Given that your current 4S has a newish battery, ticks all of your boxes and is your favourite colour, is there any way you can keep it? Given the depreciation that is now going on, it will be a good buy for someone. Why not you? Maybe it is not possible with the finance deal, but someone will...

    The Lotus Eletre R is pretty quick then

    Interesting. Not the sort of thing you tend to hear about with electric cars having less to go wrong and all that. However they still have suspension, steering etc. and all of the electronic tech bits are not cheap. And I expect that Porsche bits will be more than Tesla bits. I can't imagine...

    The Lotus Eletre R is pretty quick then

    Out of interest, what sort of things are going wrong with your old Tesla and how much do they cost to fix?

    "There’s a new form of keyless car theft that works in under 2 minutes" - Article

    It’s probably more use than a Taycan in Africa where it has now ended up. I am not sure where the market is for stolen Taycans although I assume there must be one

    Can The Porsche Taycan REALLY Beat The 911? -- Drag Race & Track Battle

    Please don’t misunderstand me… I am not saying they are similar. Just that I drove both and for a variety of reasons ended up in a Taycan. But that doesn’t mean I wouldn‘t enjoy owning a 911. Very different cars, but both fantastic

    Can The Porsche Taycan REALLY Beat The 911? -- Drag Race & Track Battle

    It would be less use to me than a Taycan which is why I ended up with a Taycan. But a 911 would still be fun and a great car to own

    Can The Porsche Taycan REALLY Beat The 911? -- Drag Race & Track Battle

    I am not so sure… I decided it was time to move on from my Macan and looked at a 911 4S and a Taycan 4S. The Taycan won as an overall package for various reasons but it was a more useful car to me at the time. A part of me would still like a 911 but I am very pleased with the Taycan and have no...

    Mercedes locks faster acceleration behind a yearly $1,200 subscription - The Verge

    There are some. How else does FOD work? Keyless entry, lane keeping, Innodrive. These all require certain hardware that is locked but can be activated.

    Do you have other EV's?

    So everyone seems to love their EVs (except possibly the Leaf). Has anyone had an EV that they really didn’t like or would not recommend?

    Post is gone.

    Are you going to elaborate on how it drove/what you liked/what you didn’t like etc?

    Audio / Hi-fi thread

    Perhaps a more relevant question is whether anyone has upgraded their base audio since that is what a lot of people might now be getting but not wanting. If so, with what, at what cost and how good a result?

    Lotus Eletre

    Really? The brand is so popular that I expect that once it has been on sale for 3 months the wait for a new one will be 12 months or longer. We will see!

    Lotus Eletre

    I am somewhat surprised by this. I had a Macan for nearly 5 years and it was a great car. Not at all crude in my opinion.
