while the tesla connector is nice. i will not buy a car that can only charge on a tesla network. I bought this car to get away from tesla and with mass adoption pushing towards the clunky CCS connector I rather take the option with more availability in the future.
I'll believe it when i see it, these claims are always junk meant to generate venture funding
Magnetic resonance charging is WORSE than coupled inductive charging and both are terrible. I'm not paying 2-3x more electricity to charge my car just so i can avoid plugging in the car.
VERY quick...
in the winter 75kw i pretty normal. Summer is like 110kw down to 80w. the car charges basically at 1C in winter, 1.5C in summer. The max you'll ever see is slightly above 150kw on a 350KW charger but that only happens in the summer and it only lasts <5 minutes before it drops to 110kw.
This has recently started happening to me. About every other day now I have to pull over and restart the car to get the alert to go away.
If i dont open the driver door after shutting off the car it will not let me re-enable blue cruise at all. (blue cruise not available)
As long as I open the...
Since the update I pretty consistently get told 290 miles of range at 100% which drops very fast when driving since its been around freezing. I've driven easily over 2k miles since the update
I think the UI is an improvement since i always ran the cards in the minimized mode. But give me something more to look at on the dash, that would be a good place for tire pressure, or audio track info. like basically every other car on the market.
i have a built in feb 2021 with 47k miles. SoH reads at 97%. I've done a fair number of fast charges and 100% to sub 5% trips. No one should be worried about battery health yet.
also 110kw is kind of the normal charge rate for the car after that initial burst to 150kw (if its allowed to). It drops from 110kw down to 60kw right until 80% then it drops to around 40kw and tapers off at 95%.
This only applies when the battery is warm. all rates are reduced when below 70...
one, how is this even a patent? jesus the standards are low.
also heat pumps are a huge benefit in everything but below zero temps. AT worst a heat pump is no worse than a resistive heater.
The other thing is its not like a heat pump is some magical thing that's special compared to a normal...
most of the time when i get the resume control alert that wont go away its because the sun is hitting the sensor and it freaks out because its blocked. Not sure why sometimes it wont shut up and other times it just disables bc for a while with no other issue.
I find the entire blue cruise system much more spotty than the lane centering before the update. it barely turns on lane keep on secondary roads and its very hit or miss on actual blue cruise hand free zones. When it works, its pretty great however.
Before blue cruise ever got released for my job 1 car i would fairly regularly have that parking aid failure when in stop and go traffic. Its absolutely terrifying when you are stopped and it suddenly starts moving on its own.
I had pretty much the same thing happen with my car, I was charging it on L1 power and got the battery high voltage error and stop safely now when trying to turn it on. Sounds like your dealer at least was much better with service than mine. I've heard almost nothing from my dealer even after...
