Hi all! I'm so excited to have my first ever mini. I'm about three weeks into a new-to-me 2021 Mini Cooper SE. I've been wanting one since the 2000s and seriously considered it in my EV shopping in 2022. Finally a deal came along that I just could not ignore.

This thing is such a joy to zoom around town in!

Hi, I have a Genesis 2023 GV60. I'm working on a project where I want to fit the physical key into a Victorinox security wallet in the slot where the blade would go. I don't want to modify my original genesis physical keys, but I can't find anyone who can replicate them. Has anyone had any luck in finding a keymaker who can cut a Genesis mechanical key? Or is it a dealer-only thing, and suffer their markup?

It would be based on the blade in the pic.

I don't know if I'm thinking too simplistically about this, but why can't the heat that data centers generate be captured to create steam, to spin turbines, to supplement the energy that they use?

I submitted this feature request in the app, didn't get much response. So I figured I'd throw it over here as well.

It'd be great to have a feature where you could long press the Charge Now button and schedule a delayed charge within the next 24hrs. Ideally, it would prompt you with a start and stop charge time, and even better if you could choose the amperage level (limited by the EVSE's max). This delayed charge would get highest priority over the other evse smart settings, for example, above a regularly scheduled-off setting.

I try to charge from solar as much as I can. But I also have time of use scheduling, that goes from midnight to 5am. During the summer I would love to turn off th

Hi I'm a new user. I did a search for this issue in this subreddit, and I didn't see anything about it, so I just want to put it out there.

In the Android Auto interface, when I select Artist and tap the microphone to do a voice search, it captures what I say correctly, but it never produces any results.

If I have no reference to the artist beforehand, I must use the phone to do an artist search.

So Mercedes just held a small CPO event at their new site in Ashburn, VA, and I wanted to relay my experience with the official Hyundai adapter. I have a 2023 Genesis gv60.

Unfortunately it did not seem to work as well as I hoped. I had arrived with about 50% SOC, no battery conditioning. The first charge attempt was using the NACS cable with the Hyundai adapter. We saw it very briefly hit 175 KW and then quickly settled into about 130 KW. We let that run for about 5 minutes and it never really ramped up to a higher speed.

Then we switched over to the native CCS cable. Pretty seamless in getting it started, and a definite Improvement in charge speed. It very briefly got up to 230 KW and
