Jiří EischmannThis explains why we couldn't get Android Auto to work. It's extra and not particularly cheap. Well, it's the VW concern after all, everything is extra in their cars. 😅 #evtrip
And now it's being charged from our roof top solar system (through house batteries now). We've been selling power surpluses for 1.25 CZK/kWh. If we charge the car with it instead, we'll drive for 20 CZK (€0.8)/100km. #evtrip
The last charging stop. The most powerful charger so far: 400 kW. The price is a bit lower: 17.80 CZK/kWh.
So far the biggest problem has not been charging, but traffic which is just terrible before the Easter. #evtrip

From 20 to 80% in 30 minutes. Let's continue to Vystrkov. #evtrip
Arrived to Ionity Beroun, another 170 km, the battery down from 80 to 20%, let's get back to 80% and continue. The biggest problem at the moment are several traffic jams along the way.
Ioinity started charging 105 kW which is close to the car maximum. Also the biggest price: 21 CZK (€0.8)/kWh if you don't have a plan. This ride will be more expensive than with gasoline. #evtrip
The infotainment was a bit of a letdown. We couldn't quite get Android Auto working. Not sure if it isn't included in the package or what. Setting up MyAudi was also quite confusing. I'll have to look into it once I have time home. For this trip I'm using Sygic for EV navigation.
Charging power at the supercharger was only 35 kW. Not sure if it was because the battery was at 60% or there is some compatibility issue.
Next stop: Ionity Beroun, 170km

We're on our way back. The initial range was 267 km at 98% of the battery. We stopped after 100km for lunch. 170km/62% left. I am positively surprised by the consumption. With speeding 110-115km/h it was around 17 kWh/h. #evtrip
And... it's done! That was quick. All the paperwork with the authorities done in less than an hour.
Let's go back for the car. #evtrip

Now the drill is:
1) go to the insurance company to get temporary insurance (€89, done),
2) go to the transport authority to re-register the car and get transport plates,
3) go back to the insurance place to get the plates physically done.
4) go back to the authority to stamp the plates.
Fortunately the insurance company is just next door.

The paper work with the Audi dealership is done, it was quick. I've got the keys, but the car doesn't have original plates, so we have to go to the authorities without it and return for it with transport plates. #evtrip
