THE PAINS OF LIVING WITH AN EV! MY WORST EXPERIENCE YET

EV Channels Review

The reviewer details a highly frustrating experience attempting to charge his Porsche Taycan in the UK, highlighting significant issues with the public charging infrastructure. Despite acknowledging the rapid growth of charging points, the reality on the ground presented a grim picture: broken or unactivated chargers, queues, and repeated charging errors that prevented the car from reaching an adequate charge level. The reviewer emphasizes that while the Taycan itself is a superb vehicle to drive, offering immense power and a smooth, quiet experience, the practicalities of EV ownership without home charging are currently a major hurdle. The video serves as a stark warning about the unreliability and inconvenience of public EV charging, suggesting that while the infrastructure is improving, it is not yet sufficient for seamless long-distance travel or for those without home charging solutions, particularly in the UK.
