Fair enough, but I don’t think I’d want to drive a VW either if I didn’t want to support cuntsSimon wrote: Fri Jun 28, 2024 1:35 pmOh I get it. I completely understand that for many a Tesla is absolutely the right choice. It's just not _my_ choice, regardless of its benefits.Explosive Newt wrote: Fri Jun 28, 2024 12:02 pmDriving like that sounds appalling. How far would 35% get you? The logistics of mapping out chargers for your drive and coffee breaks would get very tedious.Mito Man wrote: Fri Jun 28, 2024 11:23 am I glossed through Bjorn’s video on this last night - he’s very boring but he does a spreadsheet at the end and probably does the best real world test. The car seemed to have piss poor thermal management - 13 Celsius in Norway and the battery would overheat after 10 mins of charging and throttle right back to the point that it was faster to just charge to 35% each time during a longer road trip. Then the car would have a power limit imposed for that drive as the battery was too hot and had to cool down.
