Quick charging experience - 370 kWh

[CHP]

Hi, based on my trip to Germany during heatwave (UK standards) in black car:

- As @Moheisen(FirstEV) mentioned already, charging is super quick at around 370 kWh

- Some chargers allow charging 2 cars same time, charging was limited to 100kWh despite being 400 kWh - swapped to one which was empty at the same station. Around 320 kWh at empty charger.

- Porsche navigating was very good and route planning perfect. As we all know, Porsche route planning is optimising battery for quick charging. Car maintained charging speed until calculated recharge duration. I left the car to charge a little more but the cooling noise started and charging speed dropped to 100 kWh quickly. This happened at calculated recharge ranging from 20-50%.
- Route planning was perfect but there was a power cut at the euro tunnel on our way back. We were stuck for around 2h until boarded. The air conditioning drained quite a lot of battery so extra stop was needed once in UK.
In summery, I like to think Porsche route planning is mandatory for longer drives, adjust recommended battery refill prior to charging if needed and use empty chargers.

Good write-up. Does the planner adjust quickly based on things like actual usage and the problem like you had?

Yes, very quickly. Really works well. One slight problem is kmh/mph. You can’t change setting while driving. He will calculate speed limits correctly though.
