“If customers have an LFP vehicle, they can regularly charge to 100%. This is a benefit over NCM, which is only recommended to charge to 80-90%, especially for customers in warmer weather, where the cars will retain the extra power more easily.”
So this is important I have the R1S and we should...
Maybe I’ll try and see the temperature coming out with an IR gun, my wife borrowed the car today, so pretty sure will have lots to fix later tonight ?

So just thought I’d post a quick synopsis of my trip from LA to Scottsdale.
1. SUV performance and utility is simply awesome, Fit incredible anount of luggage in the frunk and trunk
2. Was able to drive with AC/Heat off just fresh air so was able to get mostly over 2 miles/kwh, even going over...
