I was wondering the same. I hope they droped the silly idea of a launch button and just give full power. It does not make sense in an EV. I am still hoping for a software update to actually get the full 300kw of my Taycan. Instead of the 240kw I have today.

Really no frunk ? For a dedicated EV platform ? Feels like a BMW..... I wonder what they put in the front of the car to fill it completely.

It has been proven several times that the grid only needs a 10% to 20% upgrade because charging happens mostly at night when there is enough grid capacity. A 20% upgrade over a period of 20 years, is no problem at all. Plus, people adapt. That is what humans do. This is not a static system...

Ah yes, that would be a smarter way of doing. Start charging the lowest voltage half and connection the second half in parallel once they reach the same voltage.

I wonder how they do that when the two parts of the battery do not have exactly the same voltage. Maybe some kind of balancing step just before starting charging. By burning some of the energy in a resistor between the two halves of the battery.

In 2021 Porsche sold more EV's than Dacia. (=Dacia is a low budget brand of Renault). They should have glued themselves to the floor of a Dacia dealer. I believe it would help if right-wing climate supporters (like myself) would be more vocal. Now the whole idea of not polluting the planet is...

Since you have a battery in your car, there is no need to carry the solar panels with you. You can install the solar panels on the roof of your house. I work from home every other day, so I have time to recharge the car during the day when the sun is shining.

Combine your Taycan with a roof full of solar panels + home battery. Depending on your climate and how much you drive, you should be able to drive 100% clean 8 to 12 months per year.

EU is clearly moving into the direction of very strong government control like in China. USA is not that much better. They just are better in hiding it. (IRS, NSA,....)
