@adrianco very curious… would you take delivery on the R2 if it comes up?

I get the logic of the financial aspects.

Just curious if you’re excited about the actual car.

@adrianco I have not driven the Macane but was very unimpressed with the Taycan. No regen on lift, creep mode like it was an automatic, and I noticed nothing particular about the drive. I have not driven a 911 for long, but I cannot imagine it is like that.

I remember my e90 m3 wowing me on the test drive. That’s what I need if I’m paying that kind of money.

@adrianco @lkanies I’ve always thought that was a terrible trade off. I don’t know anyone who, once they get accustomed to one pedal driving, doesn’t wish all cars worked that way (at least optionally). Admittedly that is a small sample size though.

One pedal driving is a feature, having to constantly brake is a bug

@adrianco @lkanies
As a long time EV driver - I am also annoyed when EVs don’t “remember” that setting.

I also won’t buy an EV that doesn’t:
a) have true one pedal driving (ie the regen is so strong the car can easily come to a full stop in normal conditions w/o using the brakes)
&
b) allows me to set that up and never have to fiddle with those settings again.

For instance: Nissan ruined the Ariya by not having both of those (our Leaf does).

@mwyman @freeformz @adrianco @lkanies Fair. It still feels like an annoyance to me. I’ve been driving for nearly 15 years.

My personal, anecdotal, and nowhere near conclusive observations lead me to feel that one-pedal causes faster decrease in acceleration than other drivers are used to without seeing brake lights. While I’m sure folks will eventually get used to it, right now I see it more often surprise other drivers which feels like a potentially dangerous thing.

YMM(and clearly does)V

At least in my Leaf taking your foot off the accelerator triggers the break light when one pedal driving is engaged.
