Definitely some reductions. Standard regional rate has dropped from 70c to 68c/kWh And seemingly even bigger reductions in the cities, with some 30-40c off-peak rates at TOU sites

Somewhat interesting that driver didn't even press the brake despite the warnings sounding. The habit in a Tesla need to be to lift at first sign of danger or alerts. (Well other than phantom braking in which case you need to hit the pedal)

Yep it's still not common in Android territory. Sorento (and many other cars) do the tailgate via separate dedicated sensor.. and we all know how Elon feels about dedicated sensors (eg. Rain)

I suspect many of the weird location ones are actually duplicates that someone, presumably frustrated with the Plugshare editors, has just moved rather than properly reported

Kojonup open (alongside a Supercharger that opened last month) https://thedriven.io/2024/04/23/closing-the-loop-kojonup-becomes-31st-location-along-wa-ev-charging-network/

Hervey Bay, Qld now open. One of the new mid-speed 150kW sites. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/oaq967bNm17QuSMV/?mibextid=oFDknk

Would be so much easier if Plugshare had a simple rule of no photo of a charger or charger under construction, no new addition. My other recent peeve is Plugshare allowing sites to be added with "Please see xx app for up to date pricing details". Far better to have a price that might be a...

The driven lists the sites (my formatting) https://thedriven.io/2024/04/23/ampol-to-roll-out-more-than-100-ev-fast-charging-bays-across-stockland-shopping-centres/ The EV chargers will be rolled out over the next 18 months at the following locations: Burleigh Heads, Baringa, Birtinya, Hervey...

Say what. Australia is at about 1% EV sales last year, and a fraction of a percent of total fleet. This is well below every European country and the US. Plus unlike all those other high penetration Western countries we are RHD.

You're not missing much on 2024.8.9, it was minor updates on 2024.8.7 According to TeslaFi (which has almost 20,000 contributors) no-one (which I suspect means no current (or unfortunately foremer) Tesla employee has 2024.14.x) But you are in the minority. Almost 9000 ppl on 8.9, only 500 on...

Road resurfaced and appears most of the hole for the directional digger has been filled (includes video)

Didn't think the roof has changed at all since the Model 3 introduction (Other than centre pillar speakers in the 2024 refresh/ Highland).

Not replace. If needed (depending on age of the S/X, think this is for pre 2017) they upgrade the port chip so it can speak CCS2, and then sell you a passive adapter. As wol747 already had an adapter (just seemingly hadn't used it) his car came with that functionality. Note that over half the...

Suspect it was decided it would be all too hard for parking inspectors to confirm whether a car was actually charging, and account for things like a power outage or fault that wasn't the car owners fault.

And only a 14.9kWh battery, and 3kW onboard charger.
