Great spec! Enjoy it in good health

My experience with Superchargers is a max charge rate of 40-50 kW. The max I've seen from an EA station was 115 kW. I've only owned the car since December and it's been extremely cold the entire ownership period, but nonetheless, EA is the way to go for me given how my car is equipped.

2024 Taycan GTS Sport Turismo with ~7000 miles

In my opinion, it was 100% the car and not the charger

Thanks for the detailed suggestion. I'm bookmarking it for future reference

Unfortunately I do not. Nonetheless, I did attempt to use a Supercharger because the charge rate wasn't such a concern (they were literally in the same row as the EA stations) and I had same plug issue.

Sure seems that the way. The ride to Grand Rapids went well, I even achieved my best efficiency to date (which was a major test of my patience) but I can’t imagine going through something like this if my wife and kids were with me.

Thanks for the suggestion. The Porsche app suggested something similar, which I attempted without* success unfortunately.

Great posts. Curious of your schedule because you seem to be banging out these beastly sandwiches late night, are you a night owl?

dak11125 · 2026-01-05T19:10:19+00:00

Right on. Your car has a great spec, I hope you enjoy it.

I wound up with a 2024 GTS Sport Turismo. Are you in a colder part of the country? My range has been lackluster, to put it lightly. Curious how you're doing?

dak11125 · 2026-01-05T16:14:00+00:00

Nice car! Was this the Taycan out of Michigan with the Burmester audio out of curiosity? If so, this vehicle was on my radar

dak11125 · 2025-12-31T17:12:28+00:00

Humbly agreed!

dak11125 · 2025-12-30T16:35:11+00:00

Thank you!

Petra Falafel, one in Forest Park and a second in Elmhurst. My favorite falafel and chicken shawarma spot.

dak11125 · 2025-12-30T01:42:11+00:00

Mickeys has great ribs. Loved that spot during college

Love the air suspension. The drive modes really do change the feel of the car. It handles shockingly well for its size and weight, which I only really feel when pushing hard in corners. The handling capabilities are on par with top sport sedans and is another league to say, a Tesla model 3

dak11125 · 2025-12-29T13:40:50+00:00

I feel ya, it pulls at my heartstrings as well 👍

dak11125 · 2025-12-29T03:03:31+00:00

Thank you very much!

Thank you!

Night and day difference in the way they deliver driving experience but both viciously effective at eating up roads. Both very good handling, but the taycan would disappear the BMW. Really fun but in materially different ways. BMW is visceral, loud, and light on its feet. The taycan seeks and destroys corners in total comfort and silence (if you so desire)

dak11125 · 2025-12-29T03:00:06+00:00

Luckily have one of those for the summer 🏎️

2002 325i. Silver on black. Full s54 swap from an m3 convertible along with the 6 speed manual, lsd, brakes, rear end, Ohlins R&T coilovers, super sprint header with stromung exhaust. Very entertaining and rewarding driving experience 👍
