    Too busy changing your wheels back to power spoke...but somehow your pack voltage is just superior to ours!

    Wait. Aren't those are metric Canadian kW's?

    Yeah that would be peak charge. If you average 9.88kWh over 0.331944 hours (19 min 55 sec) then it's charging at an average of USA 29.764kW.

    Would I add or subtract 25% to get to Cdn? o_O

    The needle was showing the real time power, matching the tiny lcd on the charger. It hit 53? How?

    FWIW, that 55% I calculated that I would need to comfortably go the 77 km (48 miles) home… didn’t take into account that most of the way home would be at Friday rush-hour freeway speeds, safely moving with the traffic at 125 km/h (78 mph). I was showing 1% and 1 km remaining when I was still almost 2 km from home. Luckily the rush-hour traffic on the neighbourhood streets never got above 40 km/h (25 mph), and I pulled into my garage…

    ETA: I was in Green from the charging station until the last 10%, when I switched to Green+. I turned the car back on (to take the picture), which defaults to Sport.

    The cold weather has been annoying on range. My wife gets slightly better range than I do but my drive to work is longer and I’m more agressive slightly

    Piece of cake with 100% E-Power! I've seen 2-3 extra miles in limp mode (1-2 bars of E-Power).

    Yeah, that’s why I texted my wife that I was more “amused” than “worried” when I was still on the highway and it was showing 3% and 4.8 km to go, and I hadn’t been able to average the calculated 1.6 km/%.

    I was going to order proper UK number plates for it but not going to bother just yet.

    Mini smashed it out of the park today. Around 1pm we decided to drive to LCBO (Ontario Liquor store) for some specific items they don’t sell in QC. Left home around 45% SOC, The store is about 90km away from us in Hawkesbury. All highway. Did 90-100kph sipping on coffee and relaxing. Got to the RioTinto with 8% battery left, plugged in. Walked to LBCO, got back around 64% SOC in 30 mins. 20$ hr ouch, should have stopped in Rigaud just before the border. Was plugged in for 29 mins

    drove back home a bit faster. 20% SOC remaining.

    More vinyl wrap lol.

    Lower piano black trim pops out easily, 2 clips, removal by pulling top towards rear of car then up and out.

    Shifter console literally just pops up. 2 plug wires, shifter boot clips and it's out. Don't think I'm keeping that wrap on there though, seems like too much carbon.
