The AI Overview The Porsche Taycan's regenerative braking system, also known as recuperation, converts kinetic energy from braking into electricity to recharge the battery. This can increase the car's range by up to 30%. How it works When the driver presses the brake pedal, the electric...

Also remember that the tyres you get are dependent on the geographic region you are in.

And I assume more of the Regen braking is via the rear wheels too given the rear motor is more powerful than the front. I found my rear wheels locked this afternoon when I was noodling around some unsealed tracks while taking my 77 for a sightseeing trip today. Very low speed stuff but it made...

I did, so to save everyone else I can summarise ... No. Then slow down. No. None whatsoever, well the "Regen" causing "more" tyre wear bit. To avoid excessive tyre wear see point 1 ;) Well if you mean the resistive force is actualized by the tyre grip on the tarmac as the wheels rotational...

Yes, sort of... I was at 50% SoC after 30 minutes when I got back to the car and noticed the very slow charging so finished it and went around to the single bay nrma tritium 50kW charger to see what it was doing. I got almost the same rate (29kW) and went and got a drink. They stop at 80% so as...

Yeah, I get 144kW when the SoC is low and by 50%SoC it drops to around 60-70kW. 30kW is really low! There weren't any other cars plugged in at the time so I couldn't ask what they were getting. Ah well, such is life. ...and I'm on holiday time, so really, who cares :D ...and the Yass and Wagga...

Yes, the ER is a great car. We know it as the Essence 77 here in Oz. Great for long journeys (y) Enjoy!

Darn it... First hiccup. The Hay superchargers are running very slowly. Only getting 30kW. I'll be 45 minutes later to Mildura than planned. Ah well. It was a planning trip. I'll only plan on getting to Narrandera next time I take the trip. Lucky I'm on "holiday time" ;)

Really? I hate having the windows down. I find the "thumping" noise very unpleasant. Back when the kids were young I regularly had to ask them to put the windows back up if I'd forgotten to turn the AC up and they wanted some fresh air. Nowadays it's when I'm taking the dogs to the groomer that...

Why?

Yes, I've used the Ardrossan RAA chargers a number of times when I come around in a hire Polestar 2 which I pick up from Adelaide Airport if I fly over. There's 3 main charging sites that service the Yorke Peninsula, Ardrossan, Minlaton and Kadina. I've used them all as I traipse around the...

Thanks Neerav, I'll happily accept an LKA update but I can wait. I don't find it as annoying now as I first did. I no longer bother using the "pull down" menu and turning off ELK each time I go on a long trip. I'm used to it and it really doesn't bother me these days. That being said I do go...

Hi Neerav. I watched your YouTube video and yes, it discussed 2 new "features", but didn't say anything about improved LKA... Huh?

Neither our 77 or 51 have the drivers side grab handle.

Hmmmmm.... Tricky. We have a July 23 "77" and it's just great, albeit we bought it "new" during the October sales and so it came with the 10 year warranty. We also have a February 24 build "51" bought a bit later in the same sales. I haven't found any material difference in the software...

In addition to those columns there needs to be "Region". Australia has different software releases to the UK and EU for example.

:) No drama! I was wondering that... hence my query.

Are you sure he wasn't talking about the MG3, HS and/or ZS hybrids? There are definitely no MG4 hybrids. 100% certainty.

Huh? Hybrid Essence what exactly? The 18" tyres are 235/45 not 235/50

May be annoying to you but to others it is a benefit. Don't hold your breath waiting for an update to address something like that :) FWIW I think it's a good thing. It reminds my better half that if the radio is still on she HASN'T LOCKED THE CAR!!! Again :ROFLMAO:
