25 also get a heat pump and are more efficient in the cold weather. Touring has more backseat leg room without the batteries back there if you are going to have passengers often.

...lose the precise control of the vehicle that High Regen gives you ...so for me there's only one good option here. I am aware there's more heat loss with Regen set on High than Standard but would be willing to bet that the additional friction braking necessary causes way more heat to escape...

The heat is working in mine so it's unlikely a refrigerant leak and some other issue. I tried resetting and playing the front/rear zones and the auto/max AC which didn't make a difference. It's going into service on Monday and I'm getting a loaner.

...I have a compressor style myself and it works great! I would caution, however, about using it in the frunk in hot weather. The frunk is a sealed space, and the heat buildup in there would occur rapidly in hot weather and overheat it. I put mine back by the liftgate and it works great there.

I feel like 3.6 has actually introduced more bugs with the windows. And im seeing some random hiccups where screens not waking up, etc. Id rather roll back to 3.5

Audi etron sportback 55 (2022 model) It sure does charge with full speed until 100% with out decreasing the speed. AC should always without any compromise be at 100% charging speed. If not, then there is a limit in software usually

...to send, and just the battery is involved. When L2 AC charging, the car's onboard charging equipment is engaged, and that generates additional heat beyond the battery. That heat has to be managed. You're confusing the two different types of charging and assuming that only the battery's BMC...

This, 100%. I just scheduled the 1 year checkup for my AGT, and the Natick folks were super responsive. I made the appt via the app, and got a call the next day to discuss the details. Then I discovered some damage to the rear diffuser, and called Natick to discuss. They got back to me and the...

Thank you for sharing your experience. Our Natick team is solid!

...one he hadn’t heard of before: HVAC not cooling at all when car is stationary—precooling or climate Hold when parked circulate air at outdoor ambient temps—and effectiveness in motion seems speed-related. Maybe an intake or circulation fan in the heat pump failed? Or best case, an internal...

...3.6.0 being the main factor. My GGT is in a garage and the issue started before the current warm-up in weather. 3.6.0 could be more sensitive to heat? Maybe I'll go outside and test the window for another 5 minutes continuously :). Some other notes: my window motor does seem to strain a...

Interesting. I was starting to suspect a correlation with heat and window problems. My car was out in the hot sun and my front passenger window would not roll up while parked (I was not repeatedly rolling the window down/up). It started working after a few minutes of driving. I was thinking it...

In a Tesla it didn't really work that great, but they cool down really fast. On the list of features (for me) that would be towards the bottom of what I'm waiting for.

oh 100% agree and I do when I remember hahaha Just wondered, since I started ownership, if it is really necessary to keep it below a certain heat threshold or if its just to keep your car a comfortable level so you don't need to precondition the AC/Heat before getting in.

...only been driving it because she knows how fond of it I am...I am a lucky guy, but now that she has got honest, I love her even more if you know heat I mean. As a few of you have mentioned, and that's what I was trying to convey, is that it's just not the car for us...it's still a beautiful...

...3.5 seconds. The reason for this is that higher acceleration/deceleration has higher energy loss than lower acceleration/deceleration (as waste heat). You can set the car to high regen mode and still decelerate very slowly through good accelerator control for maximum efficiency. Coasting to...

I've seen this idea floated around a few times but never saw anyone with some data to show it. My brother was also EV newbie and so far he's tried ~1000 miles no regen vs ~1000 miles high regen on a daily commute 50mph expressway for 40 min each weekday and seeing no regen get < 2 mi/kwh while...

...current is in the opposite direction, higher currents causing greater resistive losses, greater torques, greater loads, greater friction, all heat generators. In no case does regeneration cause these losses to become gains. The highest efficiency would be like hyper-milers do in 1st...

The drop in efficiency for me anyway was definitely and immediately noticeable since the update. I’m in Alabama and it’s been hot as hell since 4000BC so not using any more energy than I had already been using for a while now for cooling and all. I don’t mind it loosing a bit of range. If it was...

...If this is the case and regen is lower while coming to a stop, this would increase the efficiency (lower regen results in lower parasitic heat generation) - unless you engage the brakes to come to a stop. I don’t think max regen has increased, which would be the reason for lower efficiency...
