Thats annoying.

Well you darn well SHOULD be! This idea of driving all day on a trip is so old fashioned. One should be making mandatory stops every few hours with a good size break. I’m not kidding that the EV pundits profess this!
Well you darn well SHOULD be! This idea of driving all day on a trip is so old fashioned. One should be making mandatory stops every few hours with a good size break. I’m not kidding that the EV pundits profess this!Is this coming from those European types that think a 500km trip is a multi day thing?!!? In north America, driving 1000+ km/day is status quo, I'm not stopping for 30min+ at every fuel stop. Or is this just them trying to cope with their poor decisions??
That's how to do it..
Been in Oslo and Bergen Norway the last 3 days, can see why they say they are the biggest adopters of EV's in the world.. Tesla's dominate but everything else is here as well
I've been away a bit, but by now I guess you guys already knew Porsche is killing the gas versions of the Boxster/Cayman early next year? The new gen is EV-only.
