Autopilot != Autonomous

The most impressive part was where the driving took place. Urban environment, the hardest part of autonomous driving.

99 hwy is only 30 miles longer than the 5. Best strategy is full charge at start and DCFC at low SOC.

Never trust these online reviews.

I got the GE indoor/outdoor charger. It has a jumper setting for 20/30/40 amps. Took me 1 hour to install the charger and the homerun to the electric panel.

Here is the ioniq charging from 100 kW station. https://youtu.be/wb3gJ8fWW5g

I would just lease a Fiat 500e. Can't beat $59/month. I'll probably ebikes to work.

Hyundai will have the Ioniq unlimited program in California. Unlimited miles, maintenance, repair, and electricity for one monthly payment. If it cost $300, I'm jumping on that deal.

In the US. Residential get 120/240 single phase. Commercial get 120/208 3 phase (wye) Industry gets 277/480v 3 phase (wye) and up. The office gets power by stepping down the power, with a transformer. 277/480v -> 120/208v (wye). There is no receptacle that will handle 277v. We use a special...

Financial charge = (adj cap cost + residual)*money factor Money factor = APR/2400

I pretty mad at GM for not including ACC and not making all the safety features standard on the premier.

"Don't GIMP the Bolt, add the DCFC."

I already explained where that extra kWh is coming from. The battery in the Ioniq has 50% less engery density than the Bolt EV. The battery is there but is Hyundai willing to pay more?

DCFC is not only about long distance travel. Sometimes you need a little extra range during the day to account for weather and driving speed.
