I have this issue too. The TWRAPS will charge for maybe 30 minutes sometimes and then just stop and just randomly will start charging again much later, after I’ve either unplugged the usb-c for a long period of time, or just left the car and come back later. I haven’t figured out a rhyme or...

I can imagine the wait time at service centers for a no-cost-to-us fix that seems like it should be less than a day’s worth of labor. I hope, but doubt, this can be done via mobile service.

The operational costs include things like oil changes, tuneups, brake pad changes, all of which also take your time and money for ICE but are non-existent (or almost non-existent for brake pads), and can be calculated into the price per mile. I save way more time charging at home than I spend...

Given the option to go from Large to Max at purchase is $7K, that seems unlikely. May as well say “what if it’s $20k, or $30k?” Nonetheless, having the option still beats not having the option, and right now Rivian does not have the option. Every time I’ve ever made an inquiry about my Large+...

My wife's Audi Q8 has a instrument cluster display like this, and I surprisingly found it to be less helpful than I'd hoped. I guess it just depends on personal preference, and hard to say whether it would be more or less helpful to someone new to EVs, but just having 4 dashes for 100%, 75, 50...

Or the more commonly used across all types of vehicles, cents-per-mile.

"deliberately mis-stating" is also putting words in one's mouth, no? Or at the very least, intent. Looking at your first post in this thread, we can infer you may have "deliberately" mis-stated a few things, too. "waste", "give me this crap" (it's a public forum, not directed at you), "designed...

Well-put.. some people just don't think things through when knee-jerking with their snark.

I’ve been monitoring my DCFC sessions. And it’s such a mixed bag already because there are so many variables that affect how speedy a session can be. That said, my first DCFC after the last update I saw my charge speed from 82 to 88 SOC stay above 100kw. I’ve never once gotten above 100 after 82...

We got ours in Sept. Dual Large+. We have already driven it over 13k miles. There are a couple of things I would likely want to schedule a service visit to take care of but I’ve been avoiding it. They aren’t critical - or at least appear to not be. Wind noise in the front left and right...

If you sincerely think that: 70s: Trying to figure out which track of my 8-track has Aqualung on it, no wait, that’s not it, maybe it’s a different one, or trying to dial in AM790 because it keeps on getting static but the dial usually has a perfect sweet spot and I know I’ll find it 80s: fast...

Thanks! I’ve replied back with some pictures. I’m glad to do anything else to help, including sending my OEM charging mat if you like.

I got my 2.1 pad today, but the wiring harness is a different connector from my Gen 2 R1S. I’m not sure if I should start cutting wires and splicing it(thereby cutting off the OEM connector in the process) or if OpenSource EV may have sent me a version with the wrong connector. I’ve reached out...

But isn't that, too, comparing apples to oranges? When I plot out a road trip via gas or EV, I'm not concerned with national averages, I'm concerned with averages on *that* trip. The same with electricity prices. If the average per kwh is $0.35 in my area, it doesn't matter that it's $0.12...

Yeah if they really want to cut costs, the glass roof that I already have covered by a liner is a great place to start.

Flip that on its head... keeping that cubby is really going to send the company into a tailspin. Wow. / s The ridiculous over-apologizing for this company boggles the mind. The company makes a product, and has regularly slashed features from that product. Scrutinize and question change...

This was one “tank” of normal driving for me. It consists of two days commuting to work at 80 miles total each day, and the rest around town for errands and kid stuff. I regularly see these types of numbers, though because we also take our R1S on long road trips. the lifetime mi/kwh is about...

I’ve thought about cheap steel wheels and snow tires, but we’re just not in this area at this time of year often enough to warrant it. Most other anecdotal reports I’ve read from owners on Sport All-Seasons suggests good results. I also had good results up here with my old Cayenne on...

At our place in Utah and it’s been off and on dumping snow. The R1S seems at home here and has done great. We’re on 22” Sports. Edit: The tires only have 9100 miles on them. So I’m assuming if they somehow last until next winter my experience won’t be quite as positive.

It’ll be interesting to see if the .43 update helps those estimates. From the very first time I ever charged my Gen 2 R1S the estimates have been out-of-whack. Telling me I’ll get from 6 to 100% on my 40A (50A) L2 charger in 6 hours? DCFCs are a bit of a different kettle of fish because any...
