Most of the initial range lost is from the range calculation systems learning your average kw/mi rating. My etron went from 240mi to 200.  i did a reset after I learned to drive the thing better and now I get about 230 miles from a full charge.  

Hay now. Magic body control is the best option that they chose. Beforehand it was a page long technical mess of terminology that only engineers would be able to divine meaning from. That was only 3 votes behind. 

It does.  There is a toggle for an “overboost” that gives the electric motors a few seconds worth if 120% power delivery over normal. 

But but F1 has an electric turbo, so turbo could be for electric? 

They want a new feeling used car. Not something last updated pre-market crash. They aren’t bad, but even when the 350 was new it never felt it. Everything feels parts binned from something else.

Try $1800 for 10. 

Waiting for that to be a Lincoln truck thing. 

Lets see. Hard and brittle, bound to fail when it inches out its very specific use case. Seems fitting for a Ram alright.

Just buy the damn minivan already.  The home depot drag trend for kid haulers is getting old. 

Can’t directly say for legal reasons, but they are an upper designer at GM that likes to gripe about work when he shouldn’t.

I tried one of those in the past. The supercharger network communicates with the car and doesn’t fast charge beyond 50A because its not an approved item. The only stations I know that work with the CCS have the built in adapters in the charger itself. You pull out the adapter when you start the charger with the few the…

Better option. People buying vehicles they can see out of clearly enough to not have this happen.  Not every mom needs a suburban with 30 foot blindspots. 

They actually can’t unless the supercharger is one of the 7 in the USA that has the CCS adapters built in. Isn’t it absolutely fun how Tesla doesn’t just sell the adapters and expedite the rollout?

2026 when GM puts the NACS on their vehicles. Now how long it takes Tesla to roll out the CCS adapters. That’s a different story for existing EVs.

That’s why I ended up with an E-tron a few years back. The lyric isn’t as efficient on the drive line front as well compared to the Tesla. That further pushed the reason for the larger battery.
The only reason to realistically stick with Tesla right now in the states is the supercharging network. 

Just ignore the undersized thermal management GM forced pushing to slow as hell charge rates on both AC and DC fronts.

the Wuling is more chinese manufacturer then anything from state side GM. Its made across vietnam and china and a few interior bits from western Europe. Its absolutely tiny battery 9-20kwh and low power output puts it in firm city car territory.
Think it sells more based on its size and being a bridge between…

Then you look at BYD offerings, and laugh at the GM ones.  similar specs for half or lower msrp. 

Yes and no. The less HEAT you soak the pack with the better you are for battery life. GM didn’t put enough active cooling for the pack to really charge up.

The recall was as much on GM as LG. LG dropped the ball on specs, however the deplorable charge speed of anything with that pack was from GM not providing adequate cooling. Even on a level 2 charger hooked to a 3 phase connection (that charges other EV’s up to 22.6KwH it stuck the bolt on it for sucking down a joke of…
