I noticed a howling noise on my test drive. I dont recall the exact speed but it was definitely over 50 mph. I didn’t notice it in urban traffic. I’ll listen for it on my test drive.

Do you plan to run your car down to 3% regularly? I thought keeping the battery in the 20%-80% SOC was best for battery longevity and reduction of battery degradation. Thoughts?
Two reasons I can think of: "Poor range" and "high cost". Then there is the early adopter massive depreciation. Other than that, I down see a downside to EVs.
Interesting share but I wouldn't use the WLTP estimates as many publications say they overstate range by about 13% as compared to the EPA range (which also isn't likely achievable either). Having said that, I thought the Porsche configurator range statements (+/-) are based on what Porsche...
