Driving settings

Is there any way to keep the regen settings when moving from P to D, from resetting to 0 regen each time? Same when starting the car as it's a pain having to hit the paddles every time. Surely it is reasonable to be able to retain your settings?

Might be reasonable, but not possible. BTW: default setting is D which equals to B2, not B0.

You can also use the drive select lever. In "D" when pushed backwards it will engage B3 and when pushed twice B5.

I get that (hadn't realised the B2 thing though as it is a bit ineffective), but it's a pain when you have to that EVERY time you move off from a long stop as I don't like sitting still with the driveline tugging away wasting energy. A software patch would surely do the job?

How long is a long stop? If you are in drive, but stopped at, say, traffic lights or a junction queue, a harder pressure on the brake pedal disconnects the drive. As you can see on the power distribution display. You then retain your B settings when moving off.

Indeed, there is no power to the motors when the brake is pressed firmly. Nevertheless, there is a very small power consumption going on as long as the car is in Ready mode. Roughly 300 - 400 Watts. When the battery is really full (>100%*) it is quite a bit more, even during braking in B1 or higher. Should we worry about it? I doubt it

* >100% seems a bit strange. But I have seen the car report up to 108% SOC, immediately after a full charge
